Saw a post where Cleriths are being accused of just relating everywhere Aerith appears in and whatever she does as pro-Clerith.
Firstly, as shippers, of course we’d like to check and see if our flower girl’s appearance can have some sort of connection to Cloud. That’s what shippers do. Nothing clerith-y in it? That’s okay. Doesn’t mean we’ll over-reach and claim something that wasn’t actually there.
Second, finding something that pertains to Clerith points to the fact that SQEN put it in there knowing how shippers would investigate down to the smallest detail of any clues regarding our ship. Again, not over-reaching. It’s just actually, and kinda obviously, there.
Third, it’s only us that’s looking for hints of our ship. No offense, but isn’t it just them being salty that they can’t find anything for their ship, or if they do, Clerith just gets better material/fanservice/hints/releases?
We Cleriths present everything to fans and followers of our blog in plain black and white. We do present theories of Clerith hints based on Cloud and Aerith’s appearances in games, but those theories are supported with facts which we quote and give actual sources to.
It’ll be up to fellow Cleriths, readers of our theories and followers whether our posts have actual merit or not, not the antis and the rabids. We do this to spread the Clerith love to fellow shippers who are looking forward to Clerith goodness in games both Cloud and Aerith do appear in, not to garner unwanted engagement for debates.
Just needed to vent this one out. I absolutely hate it when Cleriths are being painted as the bad guys, the delusional ones or insecure when it’s actually the complete opposite. Stop insulting us just because our ship sails itself.
