Lanh

Veni, veni, venias Ne me mori facias

1) every time I see something like this, or photos of wild unrealistic landscapes that really exist, or spectacular architecture, whatever it is, I think again that when we write fantasy, we NERF REALITY. That is, here’s some dude with a special interest and a brain that somehow lacks basic self preservation mechanisms, and he’s out here looking like a super hero. Regular humans are capable of things we seem super human. Real landscapes are more fantastical than our fantasies. Reality is more fantastical than our fantasies.

YOU COME INTO MY HOUSE-!!

He’s a 3rd class G cell SOLDIER.

I know people like to pretend CC didn’t happen, but both pres Shinra and Hojo and fucking deepground itself are telling you otherwise.

Roche is gonna degrade. Yall get it now?

He’s already showing signs of it. He’s overly aggressive and violent towards those on his own side. He takes out more public security grunts than Cloud did ffs. He’s obsessive and grandiose. Sound familiar? Bit like the pain in the ass who kept quoting Loveless every time we saw him in CC?

So, why do we see Roche when we get info about degradation?

Because of Cloud.

Because Cloud believes this is his future. A slow descent into raving lunacy and violence.

Oh. Wait.

When did we see that behaviour?

OG Cloud beating the shit out of Aerith before handing Sephiroth the black materia.

Does everyone get the connection now? Do we understand Roche’s importance to the plot!?

He’s not a filler character. He’s not just the bike mini game boss. We’re supposed to get a good enough look at him as a person, because he’s gonna become a monster later. Cloud is supposed to get a good look at him now, so he remembers what Roche was like. So when he sees Roche as a monster it’ll be another blow to that SOLDIER shield persona.

Nothing and no one in this game is irrelevant. Yall just missed the point.

never go hungry again, he said

have a home and a family, he said

and then he fucked off to wutai and left me behind

        Once a pickpocket and now in SOLDIER, Lanh was one of those left behind when Genesis rebelled. He has remained at Shinra less for loyalty and more for a lack of anywhere else to go….
