Bingo on the Cloud/Aerith and Cloud/Tifa ship wars. The really nasty parts of that whole flap (probably) vanished when a lot of Inside the Web forums and Geocities sites closed down, but there's still some remnants of that time period if you look hard enough. I'm not sure what that ship war is like these days, but I absolutely dread it being reignited after the remake is out and we have a whole new generation taking the steering wheel.

Oh yeah, Geocities... lol.

I am not in the FFVII fandom (not a Compilation fan), but I've noticed that now, with more material out there, there's more claims that one or the other is CANON, so fuck the other pairing. Literally, people will find "proof" from the bowels of "official" quotes, or SE material, to prove that Cloud/Tifa or Cloud/Aeris is actually canon. I know lots of ship wars get that, but something I always liked about FFVII was that in the end, nothing is canon and there's a lot of material for both sides to work with. And that's one of the beauties of the game, I think, that there is so much for the player to interpret themselves. So the claims of one side being canon just feel so offensive to me, and then I remember I'm too old to give a shit anymore. Still, fuck ship wars.

MTE. I used to be a pretty rabid Cloud/Aerith shipper, but after I got older, I realized the whole thing was stupid, lmao. And Tifa became one of my favorite characters, plus I began to see a whole lot more nuance in Cloud's relationships with both ladies.

And frankly, after Square royally fucked things up with all the asinine retcons in the Compilation, throwing around "this is canon" in regards to FF7 is so meaningless now, when you have to try and do all these mental gymnastics to make things fit... but that's another rant for another time, lmao.
