Good evening GBAtemp. I've realised that all my blogs seem to be pretty negative in tone, mostly about how it sucks being poor when FFXIII is due out in less than 24 hours, so here's something a little more positive to even things out.
To cut a long story short, I was talking with some friends a while ago, just after the release of FF7 Advent Children Complete on Blu-ray. We got to discussing the film 'cause we're all big FF7 nuts (no flaming, leave the childish behaviour in 4chan where it belongs) and the debate as to whether Cloud should have ended up with Tifa or Aeris got kinda heated. Ended up becoming a full-fledged flame war. One of my companions decided to be a total female stereotype and demanded that if I knew so much about how things would pan out after the story was finished, why don't I write a fan fic detailing how it all ends? Whether Cloud ends up with Tifa, where Denzel fits into it all, whether Aeris ever comes back, etc.
So I did.

It's a WIP upload at the moment, only the first four chapters are up. Warning. The story contains graphic adult content of many varieties. You've been warned so no belly-aching once I get round to uploading the infamous chapter 7. In my original write it was a very sweet moment between Cloud and Tifa where they profess their love for each other. Then my friend Kai got hold of it and decided it wasn't quite steamy enough. So he rewrote it. And while it's certainly more graphic than my original version, I have to say his actually does work better than mine, so it's staying that way.
Anyway, take a look if you wish. I welcome feedback so long as it is presented in a civilised manner. Any mistakes I make, feel free to tell me, it's the only way I'll learn and achieve perfection in my work. Also please don't jump to conclusions based on what you can read right now. Trust me, you ain't seen nothin' yet. These first few chapters are kinda slow (be fair, the fight scene in chapter 2 wasn't even in the original write, I added it in this time for a little more action) but they're necessary setup for what will eventually become a pretty good story. It's actualy damn near finished, I'm just making adjustments to the later chapters right now. They'll be uploaded shortly.
Enjoy
PS: The title was strictly for the WIP version but I've yet to think up a better one. Suggestions are welcomed.
