on that note can we talk about how crazy it is that juliet forgot to tell fereshteh that mac was coming. like angel is a better person than me i would have killed himmmmmm‼️ imagine believing that you'd have a few of getting to wear your hair out in front of people other than ur parents & then some fuckass white boy named mac shows up. she probably straightened her hair and everything. alice what did she do to deserve this

Only trouble with playing FFVII again is that I feel like I can't really say anything that hasn't already been said a gazillion times. AVALANCHE, terrorist organization trying to save the planet, but they cause collateral damage, check. Jesse getting a crush on Cloud and somehow being a damsel in distress and slightly incompetent despite being around for only a few seconds, check. Tifa keeping an eye on Cloud without quite knowing what to make of him, because his memory is so patchy, check. Incredibly boxy blocky graphics from another era reminding us what they were fighting against back in the nineties, check...

I do appreciate having a text-based game so a character can use strong language, something no longer quite so easy to do with voice acting.

Also, Cloud's flashback to Tifa freaking out about Sephiroth killing her dad and being connected with Mako, Shinra, Soldier while Cloud lies exactly where his uniformed mook self lies in the flashback is unusually coherent considering how cryptically a lot of the backstory is delivered.

Remember when President Shinra was menacing? If a bit baffling. Showing himself for a staged assassination attempt, er, terrorist attack, seems fairly careless, as does letting AVALANCHE blow up a reactor just to get rid of them. In general I'm not entirely sure the justification for President Shinra's dastardly destruction of innocent lives makes sense — even if he's using AVALANCHE as scapegoats for urban demolition and renewal, he's burning up a lot of resources (mako reactors) and taxpayers.

Okay, so that voice really is Cloud's alternate (original) suppressed personality. Although it seems like the flowers start talking to him for a moment there.

(Minor triumph as I figure out how to drop barrels on the mooks. I don't know why I never realized you could just say no to the first barrel you poked, and everybody below would wait and twiddle their thumbs while you wandered around in the rafters deciding which one to push over.)

I do wish the sequels would remember Aeris' bravado. She grew up in the slums. She threatens to rip people's balls off. She's flirty, but she's assertive. Maybe Aerith is a slightly different person.

Blocky graphics and all, they were doing their level best to make this place look 3D. I appreciate how much effort would go into the settings for backstory-dropping convos, or odd little stores-and-savepoints areas like the guy in the Sector 5 tunnel who has a tattoo #2 (Cloud says). I never did understand the tattoos later in the game.

only mention of fereshteh having a friend other than juliet btw

[francesfereshteh]

and do you ever think about how angel deliberately makes herself the most approachable and sociable person because she craves community. and how jimmy is also extremely isolated but he doesnt do any work to fix it & instead makes everyone else do the work to be close to him emotionally. and how its like they were made in the fucked up lab for each other

its sooooo interesting to me how the last we hear of charlie & his friendgroup/the paris gang/etc in aleds life is charlie asking aled to do the school unity & university speech that he kinda fails at the beginning of radio silence. aled goes on a whole character arc and charlie & co. never notice.

i havent reread the comics in literal years so take this with a grain of salt but his character in hearstopper is kinda like comic relief if the comedy was actually random bits & pieces of life advice. hes like the group wise old man i guess?? like he is an introvert in HS but not to the overwhelmingly shy levels of radio silence. like that speech scene alone is so different to the aled we see in HS its not even funny

theres also just a ton of character defining moments or relationships in RS that aren't so much as hinted at in HS. daniel being his childhood boyfriend situation. carys running away. ANYTHING about the existance of carys at all. the entirety of universe city.

even tho aled is technically in HS its like a husk of the version of him in RS. he has no real defining characteristics. he isnt close with anyone. he gets no sideplots like the rest of charlie's friends. he barely has anything going on for him in HS.

and then charlie gets too busy to do a speech and aled is a pushover who let's himself take his friends job despite knowing he'll be nervous?? and they never speak again????? idk theres something there but idk how to put it into words!!

edit: POST CANCELLED YALL he talks with aled at that one club (spoons -> johnny r) but like the main points kinda stands?? like charlie's cameos in rs are so few and far between for what hs made things seem like. thank you to everyone who corrected me lol <3
