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.

The Asshole Effect
FF7/8/13 || PG-13: college!AU || Squall, Cloud, Lightning being bros || ~2,400 words
A book of absurdity, a pencil with a fancy stamp, and a rambling conversation between three assholes in Starbucks.

Born from my mumbling Tumblr post, heyo.

While it's a wandering conversation in a coffee shop, bits of canon from FFVII, FFVIII, FFXIII, and FFXIII-2 are mashed in with a cameo from FFX's deity, Yevon.

a few of the referenced non-canon events are still real-life events. What can I say, I’m a winner.

Current Music: ingrid michaelson - "time machine"

Writing fic the other day, it occurred to me that Sephiroth calls Cloud by his first name while all ~Jenova'd~ but would've used "Strife" (or Private Strife, Cadet Strife, whatever) when sane. Like, during his puppet mindfuckery it'd be a perversion of the intimacy that comes with using a personal name, but while he's actually capable of human interaction there'd be distance with the use of the surname Strife and most likely an awareness of their differences in authority.

Crazy-->fucked-up version of intimacy
Sane-->surnames and more professional distance

I think there's something sad and ironic in all this.

i just found this interesting in terms of, well, intimacy and its issues, idk

FF7 || R || Sephiroth/Cloud || chapter: 7,850 words
The Planet isn't willing to let death take away its greatest weapon. If Cloud can't save the past, then he'll be damned to watch history repeat itself.

( He kept his eyes closed. For a moment he thought he didn't have them – maybe they'd been carved out, or maybe he just hadn't been made with any, like those weird cave animals that lived in complete darkness all their lives. )

Sometimes I wonder why I keep up with the news when it just pokes a big stick at my wee anarchist soul. I wrote some crack instead.

Chapter Warnings: Mental illness, slight meta, politics, death, and mental confusion. Woo. Eir's: guaranteed to have a fresh disaster in every chapter. ~~I've been laughing at this fic since it first started; hence the random omake.~~
Word Count: ~8,000
Date: 17 July 2010
Note:
1. My characterization of mental illness is from my own understanding and experience and is not meant to offend or be definitive in any way whatsoever. Given how much is going on in people's heads here, it seemed like a logical issue.
2. Recycling of lines from earlier parts of the fic, as well as events from the original game and BC. It's probably confusing, but hopefully I'll adequately straighten it out next chapter? >.>
3. This chapter is only halfway betaed...

( It should be noted that there is no such thing as a cure for mental illness. )

Thus far,

knowing_shadows ' Fusion, Twig's A Long Hard Road, Guardian1's But That Was In Another Country, and Lena ban Obsidian's KH smokethoughts trilogy have been the main sources of inspiration. Was also given permission by
