Day One | Bianca Moore | Day Three

Obsession: Day Two: Self-erasure through obsession

Today’s character dive explores the complex and often uncomfortable intersection of obsession, control, and identity in relationships. In this piece, I ask: Does your OC ever try to control who their lover speaks with? Or how they dress? Or where they go?

Through the lens of Bianca Moore's relationship with Sephiroth, we examine a disturbing kind of devotion: one that doesn't enforce boundaries, but dissolves them entirely. This is not about possessiveness in its obvious forms, but about the quiet horror of self-erasure in the name of love. Bianca doesn't limit Sephiroth. She worships him. And in doing so, she becomes the ultimate cautionary tale of what happens when reverence replaces self-worth.

Possible Trigger Warnings: Abuse dynamics, emotional manipulation, obsession, psychological control, stalking, trauma, unhealthy relationships.

Bianca Moore does not try to control who her lover speaks with, how he dresses, or where he goes, because that would imply she believes she has a right to control him. She doesn't. Not because she's healthy or balanced (she is absolutely not), but because in her mind, Sephiroth exists above those mortal, petty concerns. In Bianca’s obsessive worldview, Sephiroth is a god in the making, and gods don’t need micromanagement. Her obsession isn't about policing him. It’s about offering herself as the willing sacrifice, reshaping her identity entirely to be the perfect companion for his conquest of life, death, and destiny. She doesn’t try to restrict him because she believes if she’s worthy, if she’s essential, then he won’t leave. He’ll choose her. Every time.

This doesn’t mean Bianca’s possessive nature doesn’t manifest. It absolutely does, but it emerges in subtle and insidious ways. Rather than dictate his interactions, she sabotages the competition. If another dares to draw too close to Sephiroth, emotionally or ideologically, Bianca removes them from the board. Not always through violence, though she’s more than capable of it, but through psychological warfare, manipulation, and discrediting rivals.

She crafts herself as irreplaceable, the only being who truly understands the divine madness behind his eyes. After all, Bianca didn’t just fall in love with Sephiroth. She gave up her afterlife for him. No other mortal, clone, or Remnant can compete with that kind of devotion and if they try, they don’t last long.

As for clothing and appearance? Bianca wouldn't dare to tell Sephiroth how to dress. She worships the way he moves, the way his coat billows, and the silver gleam of his hair in moonlight. Any attempt to change him would be a blasphemy in her eyes. Instead, she alters herself to be more aligned with his vision. She channels her powers to become more alluring, more ethereal, more complementary to his growing darkness. In her histrionic evolution, she performs devotion with increasing theatrical flair: not to control him but to make herself unforgettable, so that when he becomes god, she is the goddess at his and Jenova's side.

When it comes to where he goes, Bianca doesn’t stop him. She follows. Through crumbling reactors, into forgotten caves, through dreams and fractured realities, Bianca is always there. Not in a healthy 'ride or die' way, but in a 'you are the axis of my reality and I will bend the cosmos to orbit you' way. If Sephiroth disappears, Bianca tears through timelines to find him. If he dies or is defeated by Cloud, she waits on Gaia until he returns. She has redefined her existence to revolve around him, to the point that her own agency has eroded. She doesn’t control him because she has no interest in domination: only submission, reverence, and being chosen. And that’s what makes her terrifying. Her lack of self becomes her weapon.

Ultimately, Bianca Moore does not exhibit control in the traditional sense because she doesn’t see Sephiroth as hers to control. She sees herself as his to use. Her possessiveness lies not in restraint but in proximity and exclusivity. She doesn’t want to dictate his movements. She wants to be the reason behind them. Her obsession is so all-consuming that it erodes her boundaries entirely, and in doing so, she doesn't need to chain Sephiroth. She becomes the chain itself.

The tragedy is that while she longs to be irreplaceable, her desperation only feeds into his possession, making her more a vessel than a partner (although he does genuinely love her). And in that, Bianca's downfall is sealed: not by jealousy but by the annihilation of her selfhood in service of a god who was never meant to love anyone back but does in a warped possession.

onslaught doesn't listen to music he sits in his office in the dark in complete silence like a freak and standing in the doorway of his teammates rooms listening to their mashed up playlists (brawls metal deathcore, vortexs horrorcore, blast off r&b and swindles pop) is the only exposure he has to music ever.

my hot metal sonic take is that if sega starts caring abt him again and actually does something with him if they go redemption arc (which i don't even love the idea of in canon but it's better than what he's doing now) he should be team dark. shadow and metal definitely work well together and shadow HAS tried to redeem him before à la archie comics. omega and metal r both robots. rouge and metal would actually be really funny to see together even if they have nothing in common. plus metal could still keep the sonic beef [to a lesser degree]without being reduced to random boss fights that mean nothing and he always loses. sega would never go for this but i think it's a fun concept to think about... if only...

If anyone on this list qualifies for the highest tier, it is of course Clary Fairchild, the co-head of the Institute and my constant beloved. Her hair is of the finest red color, shining gold in the light and flowing around her face in waves that only serve to highlight the natural blush of her cheeks and the freckles which so fetchingly decorate her face. To look upon Clary is to be reminded of the beauty given to us by the Angel; to run one’s hands through her hair is to weep with the beauty of this world.

Bianca Moore | Day Two

Obsession: Day One: Jealousy over lovers

In the aftermath of the Nibelheim incident, Bianca Moore’s emotional landscape is ravaged by fear, obsession, and trauma. There is no emotion more potent than the relentless jealousy she harbors for anyone who comes close to Sephiroth. Far beyond a fleeting emotion, her jealousy is a manifestation of deeper psychological wounds and a desperate need for connection in a world that has repeatedly torn her apart.

This post and series explores the darker corners of Bianca’s psyche, where love and obsession collide, and where jealousy becomes both her shield and her prison in the fragile, volatile bond she shares with Sephiroth.

Possible Trigger Warnings: abandonment, abuse, codependency, emotional manipulation, emotional trauma, gaslighting, identity crisis, jealousy, obsessive behavior, possessiveness, psychological abuse, PTSD, self-worth issues, stalking, and toxic relationships

Bianca’s jealousy is both consuming and relentless, especially when it comes to Sephiroth. Post-Nibelheim, after the dreamscape incidents where Sephiroth breaks her emotionally and physically, Bianca's possessiveness intensifies. She views any perceived threat to their bond with near-paranoia, and her jealousy becomes a driving force behind many of her actions.

To Bianca, anyone who dares to look at Sephiroth or engage with him in any intimate way is a direct challenge to her claim over him. This possessiveness is not just about ownership but is rooted in her deep fear of losing him.

Her jealousy is not subtle; it manifests as an all-consuming need to assert her place in Sephiroth’s life. In her mind, no one else can understand him the way she does, and she believes that anyone else trying to get close to him is a threat to their bond. The fear of abandonment, coupled with her deep emotional trauma, leads Bianca to make impulsive, sometimes irrational decisions to keep others at bay.

Her actions, fueled by this jealousy, can range from subtle manipulations to more dramatic outbursts when she perceives even the smallest hint of Sephiroth’s attention shifting away from her. Bianca’s need to ensure that Sephiroth’s focus remains solely on her leads her to monitor his interactions with others closely, often sabotaging those who get too close.

In her more vulnerable moments, Bianca’s jealousy is tied to feelings of inadequacy. She struggles with the belief that she is not enough for Sephiroth, especially after the trauma of seeing him embrace Jenova over their love and him calling her too weak to protect her loved ones. This abandonment cuts deeply, and her jealousy becomes a protective mechanism to shield herself from further hurt.

It is not just about controlling Sephiroth’s interactions with others but about convincing herself that her love and devotion are the only things that can truly sustain their bond. She desperately craves his validation, and this need drives her to go to extreme lengths to prove that she is irreplaceable in his life.

Bianca’s jealousy also reflects her internal conflict. As someone who is deeply traumatized by her past and shaped by the manipulations of Shinra, Sephiroth, and her father, she is constantly battling with her own identity. Her jealousy is a manifestation of her insecurities and the fear that, without Sephiroth, she is nothing. She clings to him because he represents the one constant in a life full of chaos and loss.

The idea of losing him, whether emotionally or physically, is a fate Bianca cannot bear. While consuming, her jealousy is also a cry for reassurance, a desperate plea to be seen and valued in a world where she often feels like an expendable pawn.

Despite her overwhelming jealousy, Bianca’s actions are driven by a profound love for Sephiroth. She is willing to sacrifice anything, including her own humanity, to keep him by her side. This unwavering devotion is the core of her identity, and her jealousy only serves to reinforce her belief that she must protect their connection at all costs. Her jealousy is not a mere desire for control but a reflection of her need to maintain the emotional safety she has found with him. Ultimately, Bianca's jealousy stems from her profound attachment to Sephiroth and her fear of losing the one person who has been one of the only sources of solace in her fractured, painful existence.
