fic: the fight goes on (ff7, seph/cloud)

[jukeboxhound_backup]

the fight goes on in this the babylon
FF7 || NC-17 (sex, mild D/s, trauma recovery); post-AC || Sephiroth/Cloud || ~29.5k words

When Sephiroth is discovered in the heart of Aeris' church, floating naked on his back in the shallow pool of rainwater, time stands still. It stands still like every cliché in which Cloud's heart stops, fear and hatred and his heart clawing at his throat like rats. It stands still and for a moment Cloud exists as a hollow shell, a rain of bullets on a lonely cliff, a sword through the back and the slow fall of a little marble into a still lake.

Nah, it actually made perfect sense. There are always themes in any fandom with more than a couple fics (and even then...)

I've actually been out of the FFVII fandom for a while. Like you, if I do read anything, it's old favourites (or new stories by favourite authors). Sometimes I think I'm afraid the plot bunnies will find me if I go back, and I really don't have time to add another fic idea to the stack I've already got.
