NOOO!!! Cloud was SO CLOSE to killing Hojo. SO CLOSE!!!!

and...

NOOO!!!! AERIS MESSAGE!!! AND ITS NOBODY'S BUSINESS????

I seriously thought that Genesis would take the hint but nooo....TT__TT

But Sephiroth! YEEEAH!!! He finally thought about his dreams being the connection to Cloud, but the problem is if it will be enough to lead them to Cloud :-(

Once again, this is an awesome chapter. And I don't think it was that short. (maybe it's cuz so much things are falling into place now, like Kunsel's going to Nibelheim (yay) and Aeris's done with the water and Sephy realized the dream connection...)

I just read the other comments, and I noticed that my comment about Cloud being SO CLOSE to killing Hojo is freakishly very similar to daemoninwhite's XD lol

Heh heh, that seems to be consensus reaction to Hojo's brush with death, which makes me rub my hands in fiendish glee.

Aeris calls Cloud 'Mr Nobody', remember? I guess it's been a while. And poor Genesis, such are the perils of an omniscient audience. :(

Thanks. It wasn't that short, really, just that last chapter was super-long. ^_^

D'oh! I've been bad, sorry, in replying, but I have been keeping up!

I did promise you fanart a while back, and I've been working on it, I promise! But the sheer amount of time it's taken is crazy, and I'm nowhere near finished! I wonder if I'll be even able to finish before this story is done :(

But anyway, not to keep you waiting I decided to post up what I have of Genesis so far (yes, I had do log on to post it, no more Anon!). Sigh, so much to do!

Oh ho, a 3D model? Fancy. :D (LOL bald!Genesis. XD ALSO I AM NOW IMAGINING RUDE COSPLAYING GENESIS. Oh dear, look what you've done.) Incredible! Looking forward to when it's finished! What a project~

(Has no idea which anon you were, honestly, so you've only gained my admiration for a log-on post. <3)

OHMYSHIVA WHYYYYYYYYY DX

so close... so close... fucking Hojo... *cries*

I hope there's an explanation for Cloud being outside the cage... coming up soon... I'm curious now. (That or you could just comment back and/or PM it to me if it's not in the story.)

Also also also Zack's haaaaaaaaaaaair ,>A<,
*snifflecry* Angeeeeeeeeeeeaal...

AND GENESIS SEEMED LIKE HE WAS HINTING TO SEPHIROTH YESNO? *brick'd*
I know I know I know they don't get it yet but GGGHH

And come on, if Seph wants to kill Hojo, he'd probably be the only one that could get away with it. :|

So overall yeah, awesome.

..........but now I'm even more impatient for the next one DX

There's brief explanation in the next chapter, but something to get you thinking since you're interested... the thing about time travel, is you have to travel through both time and space, because not only is the planet spinning on its axis, but roatating around the sun, right? :D

Zack's hair is an unhappy thing? :(

Thanks. :D

Hm, I see... (more than I expected to...)
I also feel kinda dumb for not getting that in the first place...

No. Zack's hair is always a good thing XD;;
It was a happy cry... but it's kind of hard to textify happy cry/squeal/wail/thing.

So welcome~

Also, forgot to mention in the last comment: OMG AERITH AND THE MESSAGE AND MR NOBODY'S BUSINESS AND GGGHH WHY DOESN'T ZACK GET IT?!!

What about...? anonymous March 1 2010, 02:56:46 UTC
Vincent? I mean, at the very least I could see him dropping by to make sure Sephiroth is still alive and all, or if Cloud really did try to take him out or something like that.

I could also see Lucretcia knowing something was wrong somehow...she seems to do that. *scratches head*

Anyway, yeah if Sephiroth researches his own history...although that might start off the whole reunion thing again right there...

So how is this all going to play out, eh? :D I'd very much like to see Cloud get out on his own, but I also want to see the look on his face when Sephiroth, of all people, comes to save his sorry butt. *snicker*

Poor guy. Don't know if he'll be able to get over this one either...

What about him indeed.

But ahaha, I'd really rather not spoil future chapters in the comments, so I'll leave you to speculate. ^_^

I'm pretty sure 90% of the excitement you're feeling is spawned directly by Hojo near-death experience. :P

Yes, the end is coming soon, though there a still at least five chapters left, maybe more if I get verbose or struck by last minute inspiration. Know what you mean, I kind of hate finishing fics too! You get all nice and comfortable in long fics.

Ribbon is crazy rare. There were only a three available in the whole game (just enough to outfit the active party) and they were incredibly easy to miss. Like one of them, you could only get by morphing a Master Tonberry. ;____;
