OTPs + nOTPs + Aerith!

send "OTPs + nOTPs + [a muse name]" for me to list out my favourite pairings, and the pairings i am not interested in, for that muse

CLERITH

there's no one else, that's it, clerith. that's my OTP. I'm sure for anyone that has me on discord this is not a surprise lol I can't encapsulate all my feelings about them into coherent words but I will say that I love all their little details and their themes and and references throughout the games as a whole.

How he 'doesnt dance', he doesnt high five, he doesnt take on work for charity — until it involves aerith, then suddenly he does all of it. she doesnt place any pressure on him, she sees him for who he is, accepts him as he is, and because of that it makes him want to try harder. and then he opens up and they have such fun and teasing banter. everything about them just makes me so soft.

And I'll preface my nOTP by saying a few things. I don't care about fandom shipping, I don't care what others ship, but I do have my own preferences and thoughts. I'm not going to elaborate on my nOTP thoughts here because I don't want to deal with any potential fandom uprising in my inbox or whatever, but if you want more details you can ask me privately. but my nOTP for her is zack so yeah

outside of those two, again it's just up to chemistry. I see the potential with Tifa (more for her than I do with Cloud tbh) and I think she'd have a lot of other fun ships, but nothing else quite reaches OTP levels for me
