Not Sure If This Has Been Said Already, But Post Story (and DLC Whatever That May Be) Wyll Should Become

Not sure if this has been said already, but post story (and DLC whatever that may be) Wyll should become a writer/adventurer (maybe with Karlach and Tav if they arent romanced by someone else). Now hear me out, he already comes up with fun names for his adventurers, speaks in flowery eccentric language sometimes, iirc he loved to read with his father, and even made up his own main character (in the Blade as he really loves to talk about the Blade in the 3rd person). I feel like it just fits so well with his character, spreading the positive message of the Blade, keeping it alive even as a devil (assuming we don't fix that in a DLC). I swear this boy could create a great serial just writing down his adventures and exaggerating a little bit. Wyll deserves all the best regardless.

Still can't believe that No Promises to Keep makes me cry everytime but the ending makes me feel nothing

My post game AU

!Warning spoilers for Rebirth ahead!

Canon differences:

Aerith asked Tifa out on the Shinra 8 and their first date was in Costa

Cloud went on his "date" with Red while the girls had their own date

Tifa helped save Aerith by leveraging Cloud's sword to deflect Sephiroth's blade

Aerith was saved but has a scar on her back from where masamune grazed her

^approximate scar locations for the girls

Post game:

As a reward the Planet revives/heals several loved ones for the gang; Ifalna, Myrna, Seto, Brian Lockhart, the Avalanche trio, Zack, Sonon, & Claudia Strife

Aerith and Tifa live in the plains outside of Kalm where Aerith grows a variety of flowers and vegetables

Tifa works in Kalm as a bartender and eventually comes to own the bar

Cloud and Jessie reunited and finally have their date

They never truly settle, but Jessie picks up acting gigs at the Saucer while Zack and Cloud are traveling mercenaries (though Cloud tends to stay near Corel)

Barret and Myrna pick up where they left off and she helps him reintegrate into Corel's society where they both work to improve the town

Marlene is skeptical of Mryna at first but warms to her quickly, she has a brief depressive period when they have a son but Barret reassures her that she isn't a lesser member of the family

With Seto returned to flesh, he takes time to connect with his son and really teach him about their history and how proud he is.

They work together to find a cure for the Gi

Claudia settles down in Corel wanting to remain close to Cloud and also not wanting to return to Nibelheim

Brian and Ifalna settle near Kalm as well (separately they just live near each other)

Ifalna helps Aerith learn about her culture and helps out with the plant business

Brian works as a farm hand at Bill's

Tifa and Jessie were the ones to propose, Aerith said yes before Tifa finished and Cloud thought Jessie was joking (but said yes once it was cleared up)

The kids:

Rosalind Ifalna Gainsborough-Lockhart: goes by Rosie, the older of the twins, black hair and green eyes, she takes more after Aerith physically and in personality but has very little connection to the Planet and magic so she learned Zangan martial arts and the Bo staff, she was a very sick child her parents thought she wouldn't make it into adulthood, while very outgoing she suffers from self-confidence issues and often puts herself down, she is shorter than Lily and hates it (~5'4" while Lily is ~5'8") the twins have middle names because their moms couldn't decide what names they wanted so they gave them names to honor their mothers and flower like names at Aerith's request

Lillian Thea Gainsborough-Lockhart: goes by Lily to her friends and Lillian to everyone else, the younger twin, brown hair and red-brown eyes she takes more after Tifa, she is nearsighted and wears glasses, not as physical as her sister she gained a higher affinity with magic and their Cetra bloodline, she uses bracelets and finger claws just incase an enemy gets too close, she prefers tai chi since it is not combat focused but can perform some basic strikes, seeing the suffering her sister went through caused her to mature faster than her parents wanted from her but she never regrets helping take care of her sister, serious and quiet she often comes off as cold and emotionless but truly cares about all life and has a dry sense of humor, she is very sure of herself and her abilities so she tries her best to raise up her sister whenever possible, they developed a fighting style to synergize her magic with Rosie's physical abilities

Dyne Wallace: Born shortly after the events of the game making him the oldest of the kids, very much takes after his father in personality and physicality but decided to have long hair that his mother loves to style, around 6'4", he is more humble than his dad but still over the top and goofy, not a fighter at all he wants to become an ecological preservationist, becomes an older brother figure for the twins and Cloud's daughter, though he is easily convinced to make mischief

Claire Strife: Born the same year as the twins coincidentally, soft blond hair and brown eyes she looks like her dad but has her mother's personality, about 5'6", to Cloud's excitement she shows no interest in fighting and wants to become a performer like her mom though she is very skilled with the buster sword, she develops a crush on Lily (which is reciprocated) but neither of them are convinced the other likes them, she has a very close relationship with both of her grandmothers and loves to cook with them

Might add more later but add your own thoughts if you'd like!

It took almost 2 and a half hours but I've done it. I perfected the piano minigame. I'm so hype for this game

Since the game said Raphael smells like roses and cherries ( and Sulphur, but im assuming that's just hell scent), I came up with some ideas on what the party could smell like cuz im weird.

Shadowheart: orchids and lime (lime is canon too)

Lae’zel: metal and almonds (which is apparently what space smells like)

Wyll: wood smoke and pine/fir

Halsin: honeysuckle and tobacco

Gale: parchment and tea (according to Tim Downie (gale himself), its sandalwood and woodsmoke)

Astarion: red wine and wintergreen (some soft mint) and an undertone of blood (Apparently its canon bergamot, brandy, and rosemary, thanks for letting me know (: )

Karlach: smores and honey (just warmth and chocolate)

Jaheira: Magnolia and rain

Minsc: oud and musk

Minthara: earth and coffee

Mizora: jasmine and sandalwood
