23 for the ask game!

Thank you for the ask! (This is for the "writing details" ask game.)

23. A piece of canon you love to emphasize.

Roche's flashiness immediately caught my eye, of course, but what first really intrigued me about him was when he gave Cloud an elixir at the start of their 7-6 Annex fight in FFVII Remake. It struck me as chivalrous and also clearly stemmed from Roche's desire to have a glorious fight with a competitor in peak form.

Also, the way Roche essentially rescues Cloud before and after their 7-6 Annex fight made me think, "Wow, this guy is like a completely deranged Tuxedo Mask who actually gets shit done rather than just throwing roses. I want to see more of him!"

...All of which is to say: I love emphasizing Roche's off-beat, fire-hearted chivalry.

i see you with that little leg thing girl

[shitpostingkats]

okay I just had to back up a bit to verify it was you. How we feeling about Roche

My thoughts on Roche can be found summarized here

To not summarize them:

I love how stupidly consistent with the original he feels. I love Reno's comment in remake that all SOLDIERS are in fact, massive weirdos. I love how gay they let him be. I love that he quotes Romeo & Juliet. Except, in this universe, Loveless is the stand in for shakespeare and there's actually several shakespeare lines in the performance at the saucer. So there's like a 90% chance Roche was just quoting Loveless when he said that. I love that he put in the effort to hire a full brass band for his showdown in Junon. I love his stupid little keychain (yes I had it equipped for like half my playthrough)

Most of all I love that Cloud???? Weirdly respects him???? After their first duel, whenever Roche shows up, Cloud plays by the rules and tells all his allies to stand down so they can 1v1. He genuinely likes Roche and has this begrudging fondness for their random shonen rivalry. You don't see him giving Sephiroth any of that. Cloud has so many random people obsessed with him, and you know the only one he tolerates??? Roche. What the hell.

If we're talking about his final fight, let me just say: Ow.

So you're telling me that there was a canonical girl kiss in this cartoon, and then they just didn't mention it anymore?

Is it explained in the books?? What was that???

[notavampireartist15]

ok one last post. it's ALSO funny to me how every single character in ffvii has protagonist energy except they're all protagonists of different genres. no i won't elaborate

[radonine]

we were lovers lost from the beginning

Do you headcanon that they style their hair like that, or do you believe final fantasy has its own hair physics and it grows that way naturally for everyone 😂

[silverwarrior]

It's really easy to imagine Roche going to a salon frequently and schmoozing it up with like a group of older ladies that frequent the place. They've accepted him in to their circle and are excited gossip with him.
