#sjdjdh sorry the mess in my head is one big network od poly ship for ff7

[mejomonster]

So like. We will see how ff7 remake continues on its version of canon. But for me and my old experience of ffvii and crisis core and dirge of cerberus, they left me shipping

Aerith/Tifa/Cloud/Zack (all 4 except like i think tifa and zack are maybe just friends)

Aerith/tifa/cloud (cause zack died ;-; )

Aerith/tifa (frankly i ship them more without cloud but if they want him they can have him)

Cloud/zack (crisis core cloud was adorably crushing, asked zack out for ramen and brought him home to mom, zack spent years hauling his ass trying to keep him safe, genuinely they Gotta be close thats just how it is)

Angeal/Genesis (crisis core childhood best friends to tragedy)

Cloud/barret (so maybe cloud doesnt crush on barret as hard as on aerith and tifa. But they can go on a date. Whether its as friends/frenemies/crushes is up to ones preference)

Tifa/cloud/barret (advent children era up for interpretation. Theyre raising kids together, clouds linked to So many poly ships why not include this)

Cloud/sephiroth (sure not strictly canon supportable. But if sephiroth's getting paired with anyone non-genesis, clouds a good choice. Sephiroths linked to him forever post ff7, and remake seph? Well abaolutely the Remake's canon compliant ship sephiroth/cloud are u fucking kidding me? Of course. The new games wont let me forget)

And of course the Mega Poly ship zack/aerith/tifa/sephiroth/cloud/barret (where zack and tifa are only friends, seph and tifa are possibly hostile, barret is romantic w cloud and anyone else its your choice)

And of course dirge of cerberus poly ship yuffie/vincent/reeve

(All of the above are full canon To Me ahshhd im sure theyre not maybe intended as such but to me? All thats canon compliant workable)

Optionally Connects to the Other big poly ship: yuffie/vincent/reeve (well dirge of cerberus was begging for this ship interpretation - optional, not sure yuffie/reeve would be together but they can both be with vincent. Then if you ship vincent and cloud, thats how this big poly ship connects! And if u think theres a chance sephiroth is Vincents kid instead of Hojos, altho remake implies its probably hojo whos the dad, then it gets a lil funny vincents dating cloud and so is sephiroth. Of course, vincent loved sephiroths mom so its funny regardless. Vincents an immortal so hes older than everyone anyway. Then well if you ship Cid and Vincent? Then its cid/vincent and reeve/vincent/yuffie and cloud/vincent to cloud/tifa/aerith/zack/sephiroth/barret (excluding certain members when dead) AND angeal/genesis/sephiroth AND if u ship reno with cloud or rude with tifa then u can link reno/rude to the main polycule, AND if u ship rufus/reno or rufus/cloud u can attach them to the main polycule, AND then there tseng who i ship with aerith (blame crisis core and their past) and u could theoretically ship aerith with reno (also turk watching her) or fuck it ship aerith/cissnei (turk watching her) or cissnei/zack (cissnei u could argue liked him) then theres elena and even if shes not dating anyone thw turks are basically a fucked up polycule anyway. And my point? My point is u can shove almost the entire main cast of ff7 into one mostly canon compliant polycule! Unfortunately... if u count vincent and lucrecia and hojo... that means u can also link evil awful slimebag hojo to this giant network slightly.

Zack/sephiroth (not strictly in my eyes but like. I did like them becoming almost friends until u know. Sephiroth got real sad and went off the rails)

Zack/aerith/sephiroth (strictly in a: once theyre all dead in the lifestream, of course zack and aerith would reunite, of course zack would wanna be warm to sephiroth old friend, and sephiroths 3 split selves from Advent Children wouldve clung to aerith so like i gotta imagine hed be on at least speaking terms with her if theyre all in the lifestream - not to mention i think in original ff7 aerith and sephiroth had a lot of parallels in what they emotionally were dealing with and it wouldve made for a good ship. Not like necessarily in line with canon but i think these 3 would have potential)
