abuseOoh, I really like reading the bits where Cloud acted like the competent, normal personal he was before the mako poisoning. He seemed like such a cool guy before all the bad stuff happened. :(

Hm.. I wonder what Rufus was going to say, eh? And what is this feeling that Elena has? She can't possibly have a crush on Rufus, can she? (As in, what about Tseng? :-P) Also this hinting about something to do with Reno - I am intrigued.

Silly Zack sucks at unplanned lying. Poor guy panicked or something. Although I would have expected him to be slightly more in control of things considering he was a 1st class soldier. And how embarassing for Zack to screw up the drill... (sounds like me trying to play the game, haha)

Scary how Rufus' voice is like Cloud's... o_0

That's all I really have to say for this chapter. *hugs Zack plushie*

abuseWow... I mean really WOW!
You're doing an amazing job. I don't usually like stories that down play Cloud but you've made up for it immensely. I am really impressed and can't wait for the next chapter. Keep up the good work.

As always, keep up the great work. Looking forward to the next chapter.

abuseHeh. Heidegger should be sure not to go down any dark alleys. Yikes.
Well, yet another great chapter. This is going to be a pretty long story, huh? Well, if so, seriously good luck to you. Unlike most people, I think you're getting better as you go along. I actually look forward to updates and am rarely disapointed. The fact though that they haven't run into Yuffie yet surprised me, but you did say this would be AU.
Also, thank you so much for not putting Red in a suit. I mean, come on, Square! He has a FLAMING TAIL! ...It bugged me in the game how Red actually though he could pass as a human and it worked.
I think I like Rufus in this. He actually seems like a part of the living, though the game's cold hearted robot did work well for the game. But for the game only. Here, I think you're setting him apart from his father, which helps a lot considering the man is still alive. The Rufus and Elena pairing? *shrug* Well, alright. Makes no real difference to me. I'm not one of those people who pick pairings and fight to the death for them. You've made a few pairings, and so far, none of them are really cheesey.
Nice, stealing the bear wearing a marshmallow line. Best line in the game and oh-so Zack-ish. Especially since he couldn't even say it with a straight face.
And Cloud's coming back. About time he had to save Zack's butt, right?

abuseWow. I could really tell how much you hate Heidegger in this chapter. xD It's okay, I can't stand him either.

This may sound wrong, but I actually liked the scene where he hit Cloud and Zack. If you were trying to stir the emotions of your readers, it really worked. I wanted to hit Heidegger, myself. xP

And I saw some Elena/Rufus action going on! How exciting! You don't see that pairing around too often, but I like it. Also, I like the way you write Rufus. I might have mentioned that before, but it's good that he isn't such a 'bad guy' in this story. Plus, things might turn out differently, since his father is still alive and everything.

But with your writing, you add lots of depth to Rufus' character. The game made him seem shallow and cold, only caring about scaring the rest of the Planet into obedience. It is good that you explore more of his personality with your story.

And the bear-marshmallow line made me crack up. =P Poor Barret. Can't quite fit into anything, huh?

It was also a good thing to see Cloud take charge a bit more in this chapter, like when he helped Zack lie to the sergeant. He has been portrayed as quiet and almost vulnerable in the story so far, but you seem to be changing that gradually. Good character development. (: I can't wait to see where Cloud will be at the end of the story. (Hopefully with Tifa! xD)

So this review is a bit shorter, because I am running out of time. x.x But, as always, I am eagerly anticipating your next update. I plan to stick with you until the story is finished! And I understand that you are busy, but update as soon as possible!

abusewell atleast the late update was countered by the length...but its still really good!! and more of a good thing is a great thing!!

I see some rulena coming in and it seems to me that Cloud is catching glimpses of his previous life...im sure wearing that uniform helped a little with that...and when they get to nibelheim...i sense a LARGE wave crashing down on him...good thing theres not much else there to have happen.

...odd thought but i wonder what zack is gunna say when he sees yuffie again...

Really great stuff again!

Keep it comin!

abuseAmazing chapter as always. You don't have to rush, your story is so worth it! And the old Cloud is starting to come back. It's little, but a start all the same^^And Barret with the sailor outfit LMAO! And Red XI was saved lol. Gr, Heidegger. Someone should push off a cliff. With rocks. Big pointy rocks.

So they're on the ship. I wonder if anything big will happen!

abuseOh, I can´t believe that I missed the last chapter!! But I´m glad that you updated, an amazing chapter, as always. I´m looking forward to the moment in wich Zack will have to tell the whole story to the group!!
Heidegger sucks. He is such a bastard. I´ve never liked that particular character (or don corneo :S ) But I don´t know a thing about his relationship with the turks. It´s the thing with Reno´s red lines canon or just for this story? Hope that you update soon!!

abuseI think this is my first time reviewing this story... I'm too lazy to check. :/ Well, whatever. I love this story, and can't wait for it to be updated. X) The only bit I'm confused about is the thing with Reno's scars. :/ Oh well. Once again, love the story and can't wait for it to be updated.

abuseteehee that was a fun chapter and definately worth the wait. Though I did want to smack Zack around for being the loveable idiot that he is when it comes to such things.

I love the way you're portraying Rufus, half of me still wants to think of him as the bad guy yet I know he's planning something and I just can't wait to see what it is. Sehpy's going to be really annoyed that he's upstairs now but that can't be helped at all (only my parents computer has the internet on it)

Yay I get a Zack Plushi (torments Sephy with it)! Huggles for you and can't wait for the next one!

abuseBarett in a sailor suit WAS hilarious... but Red was even more so...though I agree that it was much too impractical.

Lookin' forward to any events onboard the ship...since this is were it really starts to deviate from FFVII, right?

abusewow another amazing chapter as always! sorry for not reviewing the previous chapters, they were amazing as well. As always I love the way you portray Zack, Aerith, and Cloud. Especialy Cloud, he's so cute lol. Just recently I've been playing crisis core so I'm begining to understand Zack and Clouds story better. The only question I really have is what happened to Reno to give him those scars? I've always wondered about those...Anyway flawless, attention grabbing writing. Keep up the good work! =3

abuseGreat Chapter, love the details. i could really imagine Barret in a sailor suit XD, Heidegger should die! Poor Cloud and Zack, they could kick his arse anytime. Love your story, i like the way you mix the original character with your own view and create this, plus its plot doesn't die out like many other fanfics i've read. can't wait for the next chapter!!
