Almost 40 old Scottish fan of FF7 Obsessed with it since day one. Sephiroth, Hojo and Cloud are favs, but lets be honest, there are precious few characters I don't like. Writer/Artist 🏳️‍⚧️ He/Him

I am like please be Jenova in human form Alissa because the vibes I am getting are so good and it would be the coolest shit ever.

This part always stays with me, Reno trying to reach for his nightstick, and Cloud blocks him off and says, "How do we stop it?" and Reno, resigned, is like "Who knows?" and passes out.

It's such a good moment of like meta commentary on the whole Shinra machine and Reno's dubious feelings and doubt

God his EYES. Every time I'm like damn. And I also remember why like people had to have been so weirded out by him, no wonder he felt so very isolated.

God, platefall still hits me so fucking hard. The people I heard saying "no one died" "it wasn't meaningful" or what the fuck ever were so full of shit. I strongly disagree

It chills me even more thinking back to how the first game was pre 9/11, and how much the world has changed in the years since

And we are go! Chapter 4 of The Missing Wing

Cloud wanders the snowfields looking for answers and finds nothing but questions instead.

More face practice, this time the much harder Sephiroth. He's got a lot of soft shapes and I struggle with soft non contrasty lines lol.

In most fandoms I have like one particular blorbo I fixate on. In FF7 its just SO FUCKING MANY. Like Sephiroth, Cloud, Hojo, Rufus, Reno, Vincent, Zack, Barret, Aerith, its just a HUGELY COMPETITIVE LIST OF CHARACTERS, ANY ONE OF WHICH I'd have fixated on in another situation.

You can't prove I'm completely feral about this fuckin relationship.
September 22, 2025 at 10:26 PM
The game does everything it can to make this part clear but as someone with no sense of direction, welcome to my idea of hell.

Drawing some screenshots to practice figuring out proportions on features and stuff.

Here's a random cloud. His features are soooo soft its hard for me to temper my pointy ass style.

I really enjoy Jessie as a character. She doesn't feel superficial, even her pushy flirting with Cloud that Wedge warns us is just an act is a key to the way she deals with an overwhelming world by performing to it. I think she really does find Cloud sweet.

This bit always has me in stitches.

I love that we get to see what the Shinra employees homes look like, this whole scene was a brilliant addition imo.
September 21, 2025 at 12:04 PM
I also really fucking love Roche, I think he's a good example that the treatments and stuff create kind of bombastic characters within the ranks. Shinra's army has always felt very MGS esque with its wild characters and its a thing I really enjoy.

It's so odd to me when I see people really down on the FF7 remakes, I think for me it doesn't matter what it does differently than FF7 because the original still exists, and in no way do these games purport to be that game or replace it, they feel like an AU and that's fine with me.

At first, with FF7R, I was opposed to the decision to include Sephiroth in the game, but now I am very much pro it, especially with the implications that Cloud can "remember" things that already happened, etc. Also I think we are more inside Clouds mind in this game than the PSX allowed.
September 21, 2025 at 10:13 AM
Barrets little melodramatic "would we float to the heart of the planet" comment getting shot down by Cloud very practically being like "no the pump would fucking kill us" is a good illustration of their personalities lol. I adore Cloud and Barret's relationship a lot.
September 20, 2025 at 3:58 PM
I love all the little posters and nods to Banora White apples. I always thought the dumbapples thing in crisis core was so silly, it's endearing. FF7 goes from the coolest thing I've ever seen to the weirdest most ridiculous little details and its part of the appeal.

Hilarious fact but one of the first "yaoi" fics I ever read was a smutfic between President Shinra and Heidegger. Kid me was traumatised but I was also at a "beards are gross" stage of being a weeb. I just couldn't recognise good toxic old man content lollll.
September 20, 2025 at 3:23 PM
I always loved Aerith but as a kid it drove me COMPLETELY insane that she looked so much like Sephiroth. I was like WHY DO THEY HAVE THE SAME HAIR. My deep sense of vindication DECADES later when it turned out she was meant to be his sister in earliest drafts of the story.

I think contrasting Midgar to the desolate life-leeched wasteland around it from the outset of the game was a great idea, that initial sweep in is so delicious I could eat it with a spoon.
September 20, 2025 at 2:48 PM
I was like "Avalanche all wear red, I wonder if Barret does" and then realised he does its just literally a tattoo he can't take off.

I don't have a type, what are you talking about?

Sephiroth's outfits I have are still pretty meh, the one I've always wanted is the Kuja one, but I missed the FF9 event.

Also ignore their pwr scores this is just random lol.

Oh my god I am so hype about the potential twist behind Alissa.
December 24, 2024 at 3:10 PM
I thought EC would just be a trash mobile game but I am genuinely 100 percent enjoying this new storyline about Sephiroth, I'm actually a really huge Glenn fan too.
