but that filthy undeserving abuser is good enough for Vincent? Double standards are awesome!

Did you fail to understand the last line? If Cid did anything to Vincent that Vincent didn't want, Vincent would shoot his balls off.


Personally, I like to think Shera is tougher than canon shows, and Cid did make a turnaround in how he treated her, but the way he acted in the original game before he got stuck under a sheet of metal is, at the very least, verbal and emotional abuse.


Besides, Vincent is better with Cloud, they can dual-emo.
