#Lucretia Crescent

[miragee19]

I don't just totally agree with this but I would like to add one more point that may be important: cetras and humans are genetically very close to each other. It is not exactly clear whether they are the same species but different sub-species but for me it is the most likely concept since they interbreed naturally without a problem and even look very similar to humans in appearance. Cetra is also Gaia origins without a doubt. So it's not like Lucretia was intentionally injecting her embryo with alien cells. That would be a totally different scenario. That, I would agree, would have been careless and dangerous, but at that time when Project J started, Lucretia was made to believe that Jenova was a cetra. If what she was doing was wrong, then what Ifalna was doing with Gast is also wrong on the same level.

not to be lucreciaposting on main again but I've been seeing bad takes on pinterest and I feel like it should be at least noted that the gene modification on sephiroth lucrecia consented to was not actually harming him as far as we know. it had negative effects on lucrecia but nothing was ever mentioned about it hurting the fetus. I still think it was an objectively wrong thing to do because of the risks involved and because he was a baby who couldn't consent to being modified, but as far as lucrecia knew she was not causing suffering to her unborn son. people like to say she's almost as bad as hojo because she experimented on sephiroth too, but all the horrendous and painful things hojo put him through during his childhood happened after lucrecia lost access to him, and I highly doubt she would have consented to any of that. she didn't want to cause anyone suffering. she just wanted to see the scientific potential of jenova cells, which is again, still bad, but really does not imply or include any of the mistreatment hojo did. I think if lucrecia had her way he would've been raised more like genesis or angeal, just without it being a secret that he's modified. there probably would've been medical checkups but none of that crazy "endure the pain, sephiroth" / tanks full of hair skin and blood / kept isolated in a little room / merciless child soldier crap

I'm fascinated by little overlaps of character experiences in a timeline. In "Final Fantasy 7" as I vaguely remember it, Sephiroth is born in Shinra Manor in Nibelheim. The house has a secret basement laboratory, but people can't really spend months locked inside a house without losing it, so there must have been SOME interaction between the scientists in the manor and the people of the local village.

Like, they would have needed to get food somehow? And Shinra could be delivering all of their food by helicopter or something once a week, among other supplies, sure, but it's also possible that they might have had their food delivered through the village. Over the months or years that they were there, someone must have gone out drinking at the local pub or gone out to buy cigarettes at least once. There are different levels of lockdown that all seem feasible. It's possible that the situation was chill enough that Shinra employees might have semi-regularly gone out to eat dinner in town and simply not talked about what they were working on while out and about (Project S / the Jenova Project).

According to the wiki, Cloud is 21 during FF7, which means he was 17ish during the Nibelheim mission, I think? Some additional materials somewhere suggest that Cloud's Mom was only THIRTY-THREE (33) when she died, so I'm putting him at 17 because that means she would have been 16 when he was born. Which, depending on how old Sephiroth is exactly (wiki puts him at 25-30ish during FF7, which means he's probably 21-26ish during the Nibelheim mission), means that Claudia Strife would have been 7-12 years old in Nibelheim when Sephiroth was born.

It's perfectly possible that Claudia Strife at some point met Vincent Valentine, Hojo, or even a heavily pregnant Lucretia. She was supposedly a precocious girl with big dreams (before apparently becoming a teen mom), so she might have tried to hang around Shinra Manor at some point, and, idk, Vincent on his smoke break might have casually told her to fuck off for her own good. If the Project S people stayed in Shinra Manor for several years, it's very possible that one of the security guards or someone else there might be Cloud's father, who slept with a 15yo local and eventually left when he got sick of rural life. In which case, Claudia Strife might even have had the motivation to belatedly try to record who was at Shinra Manor and when, as part of an effort to find and contact her baby's deadbeat dad again.

(It's also possible that Cloud's Mom paid zero attention to any of the Shinra people back then and knows nothing about them, of course. Small towns are small, but also, sometimes you do the smart thing and just don't go poking around the mysterious corporate compound on the edge of town. That's just none of her business.)

Anyway, I think it's funny that Sephiroth is trying to figure out the secrets of his past, and they (Sephiroth, Zack, Cloud) could have potentially easily learned both Lucretia Crescent and Vincent Valentine's names if Zack had had one (1) conversation with Cloud's Mom. Claudia Strife was around back then as an adventurous young girl! She might honestly know a little something! Cloud, go home and talk to your mother!

I came across this picture on Facebook a while back and my mind went "oh lord Vincent Lucretia Miniroth" Alucard and Sephiroth have so much in common tho tbh And let them be happy

[behind-xemnas]

I had the weirdest dream about Vincent and what happened felt like a really odd fanfiction, it was quite detailed

Vincent had a husband called Gregory

Gregory was the original owner of Vincent's head band and cape

and he got killed by Hojo

Vincent was Sephiroth's father simply because Hojo decided to use Vincents dna for the experiment, much to his and Gregorys disdain

Sephiroth had a twin sister

for some reason this twin sister didn't age, looked a lot like Jenova, including the weird... eye on the chest stuff

Sephiroth could controll his sister like a puppet, like the sister would just fly around and attack

and then this sister was later used to create Cait Sith... and the reason Reeve could controll that was because he injected some of Sephiroths genes into himself (wtf Reeve)

Sephiroth killed Hojo

Then he insisted that Vincent takes him hin but Vincent refused

after that Sephiroth searched for Lucretia

all of this happened while Sephiroth was still a teen

[up-sideand-down]

Summary: Day 7: Sephiroth feels he keeps going in circles about seeing his mother after she died.

Sephiroth and his mother

IDK what possessed me to do this. Maybe the new EC chapters possessed me. Based on Lucrecia's old Dirge art.

[holly-fixation]

Make Lucretia Hojo role swap.

Hojo calculated every last detail of her experiment within her control. Her cycle, her hormone levels, her diet, her exercise, her appointment schedule, adjustments to that schedule based on specific results.

The only thing Hojo didn't have control over was the father of her and Jenova's child

Surprisingly, men with intelligent enough to be worth breeding with were also too concerned with "emotion" and "ethics".

Lucrecia Crescent believed his contribution to the project and devotion to his wife would create the child they both desired.

Hojo never desired anything more than insemination but this was her only option.

When Sephiroth is finally born, Hojo's relief could not be compared

No matter what Lucrecia believed, no one would keep a mother from their child. A few false reports of abuse and Lucrecia would never see Sephiroth again.

Vincent catches wind of the false evidence, but Hojo has Vincent out of Shinra before he can blink. It's far too late for Sephiroth to have a chance of seeing the donor.

Sephiroth hates knowing Hojo is his mother. He hoped against hope that his father was still out there, kinder and protective rather than cruel and brutal.

But with the discovery of the Jenova project, he truly believes the Cetra to be his father

Aren't sons supposed to make their parents proud?

[moon-swag-tourney]

Propaganda below!

Lucretia / Madam Director

she lives on a moon base, has a silver and blue palette, and has the general cool calm demeanor associated with moon themed characters.

No dogs allowed on the moon.

The Collector

Canon enby swag!!! (He canonically uses he/they!!!)

Also he's just a little guy. Just a little boy. Too pure for this world. They're just a little guy who just wants to make friends and have fun. They've been subjected to far too much trauma and they're like, seven or something, they deserve something nice, they deserve to win the tourney, cmon guys just look at him he's so silly and pure

They are from an unknown species from outer space and described as a “child from the stars.” Their design is based on the duality of sun and moon, although it feels most similar to the moon. It looks as if each member of his species is based on a celestial things like planets and the sun.

His magic is celestial-based, often looking like stars. His first and second appearances literally show the (quarter and crescent respectively) moon as his face. There’s an entire post about Russian celestial (including the moon) symbolism about them but I can’t find it 😭

Silly little war crime child. Has godly powers, been raised by Murder Siblings and then put in solitary for like thousands of years but is surprisingly sane.

DID YOU KNOW? THAT YOUR WOMB WAS ALSO A GRAVE?

YOUR LOVE WILL NOT SAVE HIM FROM SUFFERING.

BECAUSE HE IS NOT A CHILD, HE IS A SACRIFICE.

𝘤𝘰𝘮: @saintamberley, closed starter. 𝘦𝘮: galeria da eternidade.

Presenças constantes pelo interior da galeria — sofisticadas por vestimentas, trejeitos característicos; não causaram em Lucretia alguma surpresa perante suas aparições. A vampira transpassara sinuosamente por esses corpos, a maioria imputados com odores nauseantes, e em momento algum, tornou-se relevante o suficiente para o cenário e suas figuras apresentáveis. O salto baixo estalando contra o piso polido não poderia a evidenciar tanto quando comparado ao fascínio verbalizado dos outros acerca da exposição religiosa estruturado por Cordelia; esta, cada vez mais distante. Isolada, Lucretia pelo menos buscava encontrar uma oportunidade que lhe fosse permitido proximidade quanto a figura contemplada. Pois quanto ao relacionamento que possuía com a matriarca do Clã, apenas restou o afastamento, um agravante provindo de suas escolhas desacertadas.

Futilidade jovial em um coração titubeante, a garganta escassa do líquido rubro, Lucretia usara de estratégias para permanecer serpenteando pelos corredores sem que fosse notada. Sorrateiramente, insistiu na aproximação com a proprietária do local, quando finalmente a encontrou sozinha. Uma ocasião particular. — Contrariando tudo o que seus bajuladores já lhe falaram, consigo contar em uma mão os quadros evidentemente tortos na exposição. — A verbalização veio acompanhada com tons de divertimento, como uma habitual brincadeira infantil, ressaltada pelo sorriso que formou nos lábios da vampira. Era nítido que as palavras compartilhadas possuíam uma essência atentada por parte da mais nova, jogando os braços por trás do corpo, em postura inocente. — Não são muitos, mas me incomodaram, caso preze pela opinião de uma observadora assídua. — Implicou, um pouco mais, buscando resgatar a intimidade que um dia possuiu ao lado de Cordelia, perpetuando familiaridade no ambiente da galeria. Na fala despojada, pelo menos podia ignorar a timidez e o nervosismo crescente em seu âmago.

Excuse me, Miss!

Do you remember ever seeing or meeting this woman?

Her name is Jenova

Oh, I remember her…though she did not go by that name—her name is Lucretia. Lucretia Crescent. Would you like help finding her?

[miragee19]

ALISSA HAS DOC LUCRETIA'S VOICE ACTOR HELLO???????

Someone actually predicted Young Angeal's VA correctly. Guess I'll have to find the comment and congratulate them now lol

Maeno and Umehara manage to bridge the gap to Inoue and Morikawa seamlessly, in my opinion. They're doing fantastic. It's also kinda funny that they are both in Bleach TYBW. Other than that, I don't think I've ever heard Maeno in anything beside that and the small Young Nagato bit before 🤔

Now I wonder who would voice Genesis if he ever shows up in the FS cut scenes?

Edit: Also, Alissa does have Lucrecia's DoC VA.

[controversial-blorbo-bracket]

surprised at the lack of classic Final Fantasy characters but maybe it's for the best. If anyone had come for my girl Lucretia Crescent I'd have thrown hands.
