Okay, um, I was sitting in the train on my way to uni, and dreaming of Advent Children, and I was remembering what Aly said about the ending not being conclusive and not offending either Cloti or Cleris, and Cloud surviving, and I was thinking how such an ending might happen.

Say, Cloud goes to meet Aeris in that flowerfield scene to ask for forgiveness. She smiles at him, teases him, then tells him to go back, to live, that's it's not right for him to continue being sad, and mopey and pining about her, that's he's missing out on all the other things in life. He looks at her, and smiles, *cue Cloud Smiles* happy to see her again, and that she still cares about him. :fangirl: And Aeris smiles back and says the legendary lines, "Let's go, Cloud."
So he gets his spirit back, goes back and fights those SHM and whatever happens.
Then at the ending, he is clearing up the mess with Tifa and co. and Tifa asks him "What are you going to do now?"
And he stands up and looks at the sky and replies, "I'm gonna keep living, to do what I can now for the future (or whatever sappy lines like that). Aeris told me to. I'm doing this for her sake - and for the sake of all the memories I have. Memories are the only thing I can grasp on to now..I think."
And Tifa smiles, a sort of peaceful-but slightly sad - but also kind of accepting kind of smile. And she simply says, "Yeah." in a soft voice.
And Cloud shuts his eyes to the sky and smiles softly.

And the screen zooms out - while it is zooming out, we hear the same words in the trailer when he pokes his sword into the ground being replayed - the ones where he says "I've decided to keep living on your behalf" and it zooms all the way out of midgar, with the theme song playing in tha background - sort of like the original FF7 opening and the FF7AC logo comes into focus. Then it slowly fades to a sadder, more gentle epic song, the screen turns black and the credits roll.

In that way, the LT is still left inconclusive, but we know that Cloud indeed loved Aeris, and the CLotis can be happy that there is still possibility for CLoti afterwards, so dun dun dun, everybody happy.

I wouldn't mind an ending like that, if Cloud doesn't die. :fangirl:

Hahaha, just how I thought the ending might be. *points to thread topic*

....yin-chan, you are a Square employee in disguise! Admit it!!! :P

That's a very probable ending and I wouldn't mind it either. The only thing I would mind are the rabids who continue to insist that it ended on their terms(even though it was clearly inconclusive) and continue to twist the movie to fit their interpretations <_<

That does sound like something they would do - and it is something they have done with the ending of FF7. In the end, the rabids are probably the ones who will *never* let the LTD be concluded, no matter what kind of ending SE dishes out to them. <_<

yin-chan, that would be a very pretty ending. :woot: I'm all for Cloud choosing to live for Aerith's sake. I think that's really romantic. If I were in her shoes, I'd want that too. :)

That kind of ending would make most people happy. (Which, in the end, is what's really important.) And rabids are rabids, no matter what side they're on; they're not worth worrying about. :D What matters is that the debate between the normals ends. :P There are some people who, even though Final Fantasy VIII was blatantly Squinoa, argue that Quistis was the girl for Squall. So you'd never get rid of everyone who likes an opposite pairing, but as long as CloudxAerith is obviously canon (the way all the other pairings of SE's games are), who cares? :)

Awww, Cloud with heart-print boxers? Awwwww. :fangirl: He does seem like a guy who likes classics. :)

That's such a great point, Wingless! :) Some Cloties can be really rabid and Nomura shouldn't be forced to write a story just for them. But I think that most normal cloties would be satisfied if Cloud can just remain friends with Tifa, but keep his heart forever with Aeris. AC doens't have to please everyone, it just has to have a good story.

SInce Cloud is still so hung up over Aerith's death, how can any 'normal' cloti expect that the movie would suddenly swing their way? They are just expecting too much!

I want to meet her there.




Under the name Anonymous,what might be a good idea is a inderrect
Ressuection,were it was nothing Cloud or Sephiroth did,for example,like being brought back by a tear,for example.


Clouds starts to have one huge tear,after he sees a huge sword,he looks to see
what it is,and discovers the sword talks,but unaware to him,its really Aerith in discuiss,and over time,the sword becomes more human.


I'm probably just wasting my breath,knowone cares.
