There's got be a very careful balancing act of when someone is accepted to the SOLDIER program. They'd have to be skilled enough to be accepted but not so skilled that they'd have to unlearn reflexes that the enhancements would make deadly.

Don't want someone giving a slight push back in a fight and caving in a rib cage.

When it takes you 15 chapters or so to remember what year this fic was published all the while wondering why the heck angael and genesis weren't popping up... needless to say I felt quite stupid after; either way, this is definitely a good fic and it’s admittedly quite strange to read something this old yet has aged extremely well considering the ff7 universe’s development in plot.

Noooooooooooo... I love cloud/zack and cloud/zack/Sephiroth. Oh well. The story's still really good though

Yeah. I wouldn't like being told over and over again about a 'mistake' that wasn't my fault either. I love the name you chose for zack, though! There's another story where Reno has that name you know, and it reminds me of reborn from katekyo hitman reborn.

I love this story. But there's just one thing that I'm still not comfortable with...I never really liked the idea of a couple adding another person to their relationship. I always feel sad, and awkward, and a little hurt sometimes whenever i come across stories where Cloud, at one point, would be added to a threesome, or at one point five of them. But then again, I always got over with it in the end (because damn, if that story is GOOD, then I just go with it)

But then, I just really prefer Cloud in a one on one relationship only...

So I started reading on Friday and finished today. This is my first significant foray into VII fic and you dragged me into this story. I don’t have a whole lot to say but definitely felt like I needdd to let you know how much I enjoyed your work!

This was an awesome story! I love the fact Sephiroth never went insane.

She does remember she lives in a tiny village where gossip is a way of life, right? ;p
Nice story so far, good work.

Cloud calling him a vampire is going to be a thing, won't it? ;p
Nice intro, good work.

*reads*

*has to force herself to go to bed twice*

*flumphs at the end feeling very accomplished* I may need a cigarette. (A chocolate one, at least.) WOw.

Finally finish this... C:
love it.

Sorry not buying the whole didn't pass thing and I find it even more infuriating because you called it the butterfly effect and yet nothing changed... maybe it will later but after all that build up I find this one hell of a disappointment an also underwhelming. My suspension of disbelief just won't allow to believe cloud failed, well the version you wrote... Wonderfully written, you grasp the characters well and while I would have usually been more lenient the title name makes me unable to overlook this cannon station trend, with that sort of bally title I was expecting ripples. instead I got a slightly more observant cloud whose skill is invisible to every one and deviates very little despite his so called changes from cannon...oh well. Plot aside I did enjoy your writing, you kept me motivated to read it through out so maybe I'll read a different work of your f you have any more.

Thanks for the story, I really liked reading it. The things that can happen, if you change only one bit at a certain point in the plot are amazing... I wonder why I haven't put this on my "favourite" list, when I read this the first time. Well, that's about to change. Thanks for sharing.

great fic

You don't know how much I loved this story. I was cry the whole time for my reasons: it was so good, it was sad for a bit, and the happy ending. I'm going to see what other stories are to be read similar to this, but this one will always be a favorite I recommend. Keep doing what you are doing/did. Thank you so much.
