Innocence In A Pink Bow

“Hey- Oh! Sorry, thought you were someone else.”

“Do I know you? Cause I’d like to.”

“Oh sorry! I was zoned out!”

“Ooo, that’s an awesome tattoo!”

“Ah crap, the door’s locked.”

“Woah, that’s a cool eye color.”

“Where the hell am I?”

“Ugh… I think I’m lost. Can you help me?”

“Well this is a fun way to meet new people.”

“Why are you looking at me like that?”

“Don’t you know to look before you cross a street?!”

“You lost or something?”

“Do you need some help?”

“You need something?”

“Maybe you shouldn’t be walking around this part of town alone.”

“Hi, I’ve heard so much about you.”

“I think you knew my parents.”

“Hey, you dropped this.”

“Oh goodness! I’m so sorry!”

“Um… Hello…”

“What are you looking at?”

“Hey aren’t you ____?”

“Well I didn’t expect this to happen today.”

A big flash of lightning in the bar window lit up the area and once it darkened again she saw the man behind her in the window’s reflection. Marlene turned around with a gasp.

“I’m.. He-hello, sir.”

Why is he here? Sephiroth does not know, but that he is drawn here to this girl in this storm. In the lightning’s light, his eyes glow with their own sort of venomous light, but he means her no harm.

There is no weapon in his grasp.

“Hello.”

“I have 23 tiny wishes that I put all into one. I want to spend more time with you.”

On the rare days Zack had off work, he spent them with Aerith. During all the hell of SOLDIER during that time, Aerith was his sanctuary - and he was hers.

I don’t know what came over me to draw this, but I was thinking about Cloud seeing the full vision of Aerith’s death and it breaks him. He holds it together all day long til night comes, and Aerith notices that something is wrong. He spills it to her and all Aerith can do is comfort him. I hope you guys enjoy the art. Sorry for the angst. ❤️🥺😭
