ladybug_archive**pets icon.** I love that picture of Cloud and Seph so much. X3 I was looking for a different text transition effect and found this light one. It's purty. Omitting a couple frames, I got it to 44 KB, but I couldn't shrink it the last four. I tried decreasing the amount of colors used, but PSP didn't cooperate. XD; (That's Paint Shop Pro, not Playstation Portable. **always amused that they have the same initials.**) Lisa was able to get it down enough to use on LJ. X3
Watching AC, I came to the part where the little girl says, "It's like she said: wait here and Cloud will come back." Well, the "she" likely means Aerith, especially since she's later shown interacting with a couple of the boys. This begs the question, Where the heck was Cloud? I never really thought about it before, but seriously, he must have only arrived at the church pool right before the kids went to him. If Aerith had meant Cloud would come to, indicating he was already there and just unconscious, why would they just leave him floating in the water?
So, assuming Cloud wasn't there for a while, traveling back through the Lifestream or whatever, and Aerith popped in to reassure the kids he'd come back (which also begs the question of whether she spoke to AVALANCHE), was Cloud alone? Or did someone go with him on his journey? Someone like Zack? This could open up a whole new level of squee. There was a lot of time lost during the gap; the Ultimania says Cloud was fighting Seph around 6 PM at night, and he wakes up in the church at 6 AM the next day. What happened in the 12 hours that we don't see?
I got to do a lot of fic planning last night. I've been in another writing slump, with every oneshot and opening multi-chapter I touch stalling somewhere. XD; So in desperation I wondered if I should focus on an existing chapter fic for now. And Lisa and I got talking about Bend and Break. Now I have material for two chapters, as I only remembered after she got off that Zack and Cloud were going to investigate Seph's old house, and I want to show that scene. So the Zack and Cloud scene Lisa and I brainstormed about will have to be in the chapter after that. XD
