Like literally these were my immediate characters, there's a few others though. 😭

Genesis: I swear there's something going on with this vent! I saw Sephiroth talking to it and calling it "father" you have to believe me!

Angeal: Stop making fun of Sephiroth's family issues Genesis, Sephiroth is gonna stab you again.

Genesis: I'm not joking! I'm telling the truth I'll show you!

*Genesis stomps to the vent while Angeal turns around and sighs. A hand shots out of the vent and knocks Genesis out with the butt of a gun. Genesis falls and Angeal turns back around*

Angeal: Seriously? Why did we tell you? Stop pretending to faint everytime you're wrong or someone disagrees with you. God you're so dramatic.

Genesis:

*Sephiroth approaches, looking serene*

Genesis: Sephiroth, tell Angeal about the voice in the vent that you literally called "Father."

Sephiroth: I have no idea what you're talking about.

Angeal: See? Genesis, you're such a liar. Stop bullying Sephiroth.

*Angeal bends down to tie his shoe*

*Vincent's hand shoots out from the vent, gently pats Sephiroth on the head, and retracts back into the darkness*

Sephiroth: <3

Genesis: ??????????!?!?!?!?!?!?!

*Angeal stands back up, gesturing to Sephiroth*

Angeal: Look at how sweet and lonely he is. Shame on you, Genesis.

Genesis: OH COME ON.

While this was very much a super lame event, I appreciate the edgy 2000's album cover aesthetic of the final image.

Venn diagrams are fun.

Vincent: New year, new me.

Barret: It’s March.

Vincent: Time is an illusion.

Love these two sm🥰🧸

Got it, friends! :D

(Thanks for all the little notes that was so funny to read!)

some valenwinds because i’m feeling ill about them again 🫶

[rosy-crow]

We didn’t get hardly anything out of the Vincent + Sephiroth lineup and I’ll do a deeper dive later when I’m not half-asleep, but I will say that the funniest part of this event was this bit where Angeal is dishing out his usual “I’m your friend through it all” talk and Seph once again tries to be grumpy in response and everyone, including Vincent, laughs at it and he gets embarrassed lmao.

Good for all of them xD

Vincent for the ask game 👀

from the character breakdown ask game:

I got two asks for Vincent, so this will be the answer for both~

How I feel about this character

I love him, plain and simple.

I remember watching a friend play through OG years ago, before I played it, idly going through the strategy guide he had while he was bumbling around the overworld map, and seeing the Nibelheim section - and the guide going over how to get Vincent. Pointed right at the screenshot of him standing on the back of his coffin and told my friend, "you ARE getting him, right??"

Both my dad and I remember when I pulled a literal all-nighter to get Vincent when I played - from 5 PM to 5 AM, my poor dad checking on me right before he left for work just as Vincent did That Backflip, and his deadpan "...this is who you played all night for?"

Me: Dad, I love him.

Dad: ...please go to sleep after you save your game.

But I honestly adore just about everything about him. His overall character designs ping my love of vampires and gothic artstyles (though he is not a vampire), and his character arc in all its tragedy and redemption - he's gone through so much in his life, death, and existence now, and I love that he finally triumphs over it all and is on the way to finally being able to LIVE HIS LIFE, post-Dirge. He's helped me get through some really shitty times (to put it lightly) in my life, he's introduced me to some of my best friends... I owe him a lot~

I'm excited (and a little nervous/reserved) to see his storyline in the Remake continuity. We've gotten little tastes of it with his initial reactions to the group, THAT BATTLE (that yes, I cried through the first time, and teared up at the Rebirth concert), the design of the mansion basement (GODS IT ACHES ;; ), and the side-quests he's involved in... I want to see him get his showdown with Hojo. I want to see him starting to come to grips with everything now that he's decided to leave the mansion for good.

I want to hug him, goddammit (and I kinda get to in a few weeks when I go to C2E2 lol).

All the people I ship romantically with this character

Vincent/Reilena, aka VinRei. Yes, she is my OC, and has been my brainchild for over 20 years (watch me age myself).

Allow me to share a plate from this bountiful buffet I have cultivated, for I am a canon/oc shipper who makes her own food and will always welcome a new seat to the table~

Though I know now this makes me look incredibly biased, if we go strictly by canon, the only romantic ships I have with him are both unrequited - Vincent/Lucrecia (though I headcanon that they definitely had an emotional affair, and remained friends up until he was murdered, hence his initial "?!?!?!" when he discovers what Lucrecia's done to him as well in DoC), and Vincent/Reeve (Reeve is crushing HARD, alas).

My non-romantic OTP for this character

Platonic Valenwind gives me SUCH goddamn life, and Dirge made me SO happy when it revealed that Vincent and the Highwinds are still close friends, to the extent that Shera worries about his well-being, and Cid talks about "grabbing some cold ones" after the Deepground crisis. The mental image I have of Vincent, Cid, and Shera on a moonlit porch, stargazing and shooting the shit while having drinks is priceless.

My unpopular opinion about this character

I don't like the spikiness of his hair in Rebirth; give him back his original/AC or Dirge hair, dammit.

In all seriousness though - I don't like his appearance in Before Crisis (I don't like most of BC as a whole, but that's a ramble for another day). Instead of giving us a potential flashback to his time as a Turk, actually showing us what he did before he was sent to his death Nibelheim, we instead get yet another person waking him up before the OG just for him to give the location of a materia and for shippers to squeal "BUT THEY WERE ~PARTNERS~" because if you have two men partnered together in the Turks, they're obviously fucking.

Yes, I'm being sarcastic.

It feels like an unnecessary cameo done purely to snag fans of his from the OG. I would have rather the Player Turk peeked in, get freaked out a la Zack, and been like "LET'S LOOK SOMEWHERE ELSE."

One thing I wish would happen / had happened with this character in canon.

SHOW US VINCENT AS A TURK.

SHOW HIM ACTUALLY DOING TURK THINGS.

Short of that, please give us ALL of his Limit Breaks in R3, SE. Do not soften them either - you gave us a big, beautiful beast with Galian (I said what I said), I am certain you're going all out with Chaos, I want to see Death Gigas and Hellmasker given a loving glow-up as well. Really get into those horror movie, Gothic influences.

[m-oshun]

You think you know me.... that I'll draw Vincent because he's emo and pretty and his color scheme is black & red.. well you're right.
