What’s your favorite quirk/habit you give the cc cast when you write them?

(Glad you’re back in this mess :D, also yes everything behind gen SHOULD be on fire)

Thank you so much for the ask! :D I'm going to stick to who I've written so far, but that's still quite a few to think about! I hope you enjoy my silly/angsty/cute snippets. :3 Genesis He annotates the crap out of any book he owns. Don't get me wrong, he's got pristine copies of all editions of LOVELESS reserved for viewing only, but he's also got versions exclusively for scribbling notes and interpretations in the margins. In one particular copy, though, the notes start to get choppier, rougher, more...unhinged, as the degradation drags from months into years and his desperation for a cure deepens, particularly after the Nibelheim incident. Angeal This man can take a nap anywhere. Up a tree, in a rock crevice, in a military truck that's careening into every pothole by a careless driver... Angeal is the king of shuteye in unlikely places. It's very handy on rough missions. Sephiroth Likes to exercise his authority as a First to refuse any SOLDIER missions that even vaguely assist Hojo's research out of sheer spite. Genesis is incredibly proud of him. Zack This guy is a chaos cook, and by that I mean he just throws whatever crap he has available into a pan and just vibes. The 'throw anything together' habit he picked up from Angeal, yes, but he missed the 'think about sensible flavour combinations' part. Cloud He's a nervous fidgeter and has a lot of anxious energy that needs to escape. Drumming his fingers, leg bouncing, fiddling with his earring, picking skin, you name it. This behaviour is more prominent in his infantry days, too. Cissnei She's a collector, and by that I mean a collector of small keepsakes and trinkets found on missions around the world. Being raised in a orphanage meant that she barely had any possessions growing up, so she treasured anything that was hers and hers alone. Sometimes it's silly things from gift shops, or interesting rocks, feathers, scales, etc.

(She definitely kept a feather from that Genesis copy in Sector 8, for example.) Lazard You think this bloke only started embezzling money from ShinRa when Genesis defected? Not a chance. A lot of it gets funnelled to his non-ShinRa relatives, but also gets channelled into charitable projects around Midgar supporting people of the slums.

I think I saw your genesis x cissnei work many years ago and I have you to thank for my shipping them until now hahaha yours was truly a vision ✨️

@another-dreamless-daze, oh my god??? really??? I have the biggest smile on my face now holy heck, I've been sailing alone in my little boat of Genesis/Cissnei for so long, it's delightful to know it's not just me! ;w;

There's just some feeling I get when imagining them together that just GETS me so damn bad, even though they don't ever truly interact... the nearest we get is this scene here, and that's a Genesis copy that tried to do her in, OTL.

I think Cissnei's appreciation for wings and what they mean to her personally (freedom from a life where she had minimal / difficult choices, having come from a ShinRa-run orphanage that sounded pretty brutal to the kids, to the point where she ended up being the youngest Turk ever) would definitely leave her with some sort of envy/longing/hurt over how Genesis (and Angeal by extension) appears to view his own.

Maybe she's jealous that Genesis managed to break free from otherwise being firmly in ShinRa's clutches (especially if she was aware of how he was made by the Jenova project). That he literally flew the coup, wings and all, and perhaps a hidden part of her wishes she could have the courage to do the same one day. (It's not like she chose ShinRa, it was the environment she was raised in, and her only path to a better life.)

And we also know she's got a little rebellious streak for helping others/doing the right thing (i.e. w/ Zack and Cloud on the run near CC's end). So I wonder, if she harboured any feelings for Genesis at any point, how she might act on them during CC, being a Turk and all.

I also think, if the opportunity of her being close to Genesis ever presented itself somehow during CC, she'd be really fascinated by/in awe of his feathers, and that might throw him off guard. (:< (I drop a few little fun tidbits of both of them in my fic, Thing With Feathers, that basically covers this XD)

Basically the potential for angst and drama and romantic/sexual tension lives in my head rent free lmao

And let's be honest they would just be such an aesthetic pair, especially now we've seen Cissnei's FF7: Rebirth outfit, hnngg. and she'd also be able to dish back whatever snarky/cheeky attitude Genesis could throw at her, too. oh, the trouble they could cause...

Now my brain is going off on a potential post-DoC Genesis/Cissnei thing, oh my god...

ack sorry I started rambling, thank you so much for popping this gem in my inbox! <3

Prompt 245

Now Danny would openly admit, if only to himself, that he had a type when it came to relationships. If they were strong, if they were a threat to him, then chances were he would develop some sort of crush. It was how he had dated Sam and Valerie (And Johnny & Kitty) when he was a bit younger, and hell, Sam had technically succeeded in killing him, even if partly. 

Attraction towards smart people who could kill him was honestly par for the course for a Fenton or Nightingale anyway. 

And he’d also admit he enjoyed a bit of time travel, learning about times and culture long before his time, to the point that he could blend in in ancient times just as easily as the time he had been born in. That it was natural to mutter in a language lost to time. 

So color him surprise when another man perks up in the bar he had paused to get a drink in, vibrant green eyes gleaming in interest and responds in turn. And not just in the language, but able to keep up when he talks about things that once existed but haven’t been rediscovered yet. 

And one thing led to the other, and there might have been some assassins and some shenanigans that end with them both laughing together in an inn and then more and- Okay he has a type alright, and he’s ticking each box! How is that fair?

Yellow stealing one of TSC's feathers and it burns up so now they both know Orange is actually a phoenix is so interesting! I like this au :>

I think TSC would be very skeptical of it at first lol

I'd love to hear your fave Genesis HC (canon/fanon/whatever!)

(Love the new pfp btw, what a smirk!)

asdajsdsa Birdy, you're too kind! 😭 (Also, fun fact - everything behind him is on fire, as it should be.) Honestly, my favourite HC is that Gen could be Aerith's half sibling. If neither Angeal or Sephiroth avoided the The Crazy Dad Scientist trend, it stands to reason that Gast got his own progeny involved. (Though I do really wonder what 'unique' factor Gen's cells are supposed to have. Heaven forbid Square actually tells us more about that though, pfff. Genesis content cheapskates. :P) Also imagine the chaos those two would cause if they ever met. @rune-rapier has done some brilliant art of them too.

(thank you so much for the ask)

If you had the choice to turn into a monster what monster would you turn into?

Has Dogday ever broken up a fight between Kickin and Catnap successfully?

He actually has! Before the hour of joy it was a lot easier, especially since back then they weren’t trying to kill each other. Now to the present, it does take quite a bit of effort now. It’s not always successful! However, they back down when Dogday is obviously mad. Despite all the years they are not use to it. It unsettling.

design notes

link to masterpost || some quick justifcations/explanations below cut!!:

Birds of paradise <333 Them being of the same bird family is important to me... (honorary mention to the snowy owl for Kristoph) (also honorable mention to the paradise crow) (but i like them having matching ribbons (and the two birds i went with are more closely related))

I originally tried giving Klav the whole fluffy back of yellow/white feathers, but (a) he looked SO over complicated (especially compared to everyone else) and (b) I realized that no other character has back feathers, anyways. so it would make sense he does not either.

The ribbon-tails are similar to Apollo and Trucy's hearts: they both inherit this feature from one of their parents. (One parent is a stephanie's astrapia, one is a lesser bird-of-paradise). (Also of note: the lesser bird-of-paradise also has two long wire plumes, if you look closely)

Tails: (Klav's is basically a ribbon-tailed astrapia's tail btw.) Because the tail is such a notable feature of these species, I'm including it, though they also come from the base of the wing (though I'll probably just draw them as essentially tails in the future), and are much shorter than they would be, were they proportional.

i got very lazy on the individual introduction sheets they're so bad 😭😭 specifically klavier pls just imagine he and his wings look better there 🙏🙏🙏 LOL i hope the other drawings make up for it !! >:3

Hi!!!!!! I love your AUs, I just binge read them!!!!!!! I love how you draw Georgie, Melanie and Gerry in particular!

I wanted to ask, in the Magus AU, what happened to Mary? And Eric? Did something similar to the Gertrude Still Lives AU happen?

Also all the details in their clothes (in the Magus AU) are stunning! Is there a particular reason why Gerry's outfits are always This Is A Titties Out kind of outfit?

Unfortunately, this AU is more like the canon than GiSA with the Keay family, except Mary wasn't a proper witch- no titles, no school, -just her trying (and failing) with magic. So no Eric in this one :/

I just think it fits this AU more.

For your outfit question: Does the Sun need a particular reason to shine?

It's also a power move, showing off his eye tattoos.
