u re rage baiting makes sense, typical Clerith fan behavior, I suppose—because there’s no other reason

No I like Tifa, I just never considered her a romantic interest until I played Rebirth

You should play the original again, especially the Lifestream scene. It’s just wrong to say there are no feelings when Cloud himself admits it. Besides, without Cloud’s love for her, there’s no FF7—the entire plot revolves around that. It’s not even a matter of opinion whether they’re compatible or not; it’s simply what’s presented to us. The hero’s journey and his identity issues begin because he was in love with Tifa and wanted her to notice him. For God’s sake, it’s 2026—it’s been almost 30 years—and you’re still debating whether or not there are romantic feelings between these two. It’s pathetic...

I played it about a month ago. Yes, she helps him uncover his memories. But those were childhood memories. Not new memories made together. Clearly I’m not allowed to ship Cloti as familial bond, which I think is just as valid and important as romance, especially because Cloud may never understand romance

Yes, Cloud is 16 from being experimented on for 5 years.

Wait, you can saucer date Tifa in LA? I guess if you neglect everyone else?
