Hullo there! I fully and lovingly blame you and Chacharlieco for dragging me into the Aquaroth wagonāØļø
I like to immagine the opposite in my hypotetical AU, Aqua ending up in pre-Ff7 Midgar and getting mistaken by Sephoroth for a cetra, because, for all he knows, what else could she be, when she can cast powerful magic without materia???
Aqua is sweating bullets because what to do? Go along with the lie to cover her keybearer status or deny and put herself in a very complicated position???
Decisions, decisions...
Ahhhh, Chachacharlieco... too popular to notice a peasant like me hahaha; I've tried to contact them before about the ship but they're clearly too busy and have left it.
Thanks so much for your ask! I've seen your name around a bunch of times and it's heartwarming to know you like my interpretation of the ship.
I did have this artwork from a while back that Tumblr incorrectly marked as 'mature themed' for whatever reason. Who knows if they'll block it again here.
One idea I had for Aqua being in Midgar was a planned blend-in tactic whilst eradicating Heartless activity. She'd come in transparently as a Keyblade Master from another world here to assist Shinra with the Heartless that started appearing. And for whatever reason, Shinra allows it because they gain help and also information about a new form of weaponry/magic.
And then the fated meeting takes place! Either they met initially in the field and this is the formal introduction or this is the first time they see each other. Regardless, they're drawn in. ^^
Btw, I would LOVE to hear more about your Aquaroth au!! Hit me up
