ZACK FAIR ROLEPLAY + APPRECIATION BLOG

INDIE. CANON-COMPLIANT. LOW ACTIVITY. SINCE 2013 BY JOULE. 35+. GMT+7.

“I don’t need a guarantee of my life safety, what I want is FREEDOM.”  (--Zack Fair shouted to The Turks, Last Order: Final Fantasy VII)

I do peculiar approach by taking real world’s war, military, special force training, and soldiers as reference to be applied to my muse’s portrayal and mostly portray him Post-Nibelheim incident ‘til death and beyond (as spirit/ghost). Though, his canon story from BC & CCFF7 is greatly acknowledged and the survival verse of this blog highly follows FFVII Remake continuity.

Happy Mother's Day

(a monologue, a kind of letters - originally published in 2014 on my old RP account that has been deleted by Tumblr, reposting here in modified a bit)

𝟣𝟧 𝓎𝑒𝒶𝓇𝓈 𝒶𝑔𝑜

Mom, you scare me! No ghost under my bed, I know it! Okay, okay, I'll go sleep. Mom? You still there? Well, I have a dream... I wanna be a hero I'm gonna save the world! Hey, don't laugh! I mean it. I wanna make you smile and proud. Mhh... love you too, Mom. Good night.

𝟣0 𝓎𝑒𝒶𝓇𝓈 𝒶𝑔𝑜

Sorry, Mom, but I must go. I wanna achieve my dream, and it can't be attained only in this small village. I wanna see the world. I wanna make many friends around Gaia! Bet you'd be all worried. Just pray for me and I'll do my best to make the goals. ...Wait! What's that? Come back with my wife? Hey, hey... I'm just 13! I'm back after I'm success. I promise... See me!

8 𝓎𝑒𝒶𝓇𝓈 𝒶𝑔𝑜

How's Gongaga? Pops still alive and kicking? Is he seeing mushrooms from below already? Sorry for writing only now. I meant to write earlier but work stuffs here really extreme. Either you do nothing at all, or you do too much. But let's face it, there's never too much for me, anyway! Nah, I'm SOLDIER now. Already 2nd Class and gonna make it 1st soon! Which should be easy, hehe. I met a few great people. The great Hero Sephiroth gives me few trainings. Have you ever heard his name? He's the Hero of Wutai war! Soon, I'll be dispatched there and be a great hero too! But Angeal is my mentor, he's 1st Class too like Sephiroth! And I'll always be remembering his words, that if I wanted to be a hero, I have to embrace my dream and honor. He's on vacation right now. He said hi to you, Mom. And Kunsel! He's my friggin' stalker... but in a positive way! I mean... we're best friends! Well, he knows what he does, and I have a feeling he purposively remains in 2nd Class to have an eye on all that happens inside Shin-Ra. So yeah, I get along great with everyone. How's Sotetsu by the way? Tell him I don't forget him.

6 𝓎𝑒𝒶𝓇𝓈 𝒶𝑔𝑜

Mom? There are so many things happened, I wanna help my friend. But I'm not strong enough to do. It is complicated... Though, not gonna give up and it'll be alright. Just like Pops always says: "If it's not alright, then it's not the end yet!" This one, Mom, praise your son! Well, I met a girl... at the church in the city slum. She's like an angel. Her hobby is tending flowers--bet you'd love her! I bought a pink ribbon for her, for a memento. She said she'll always treasure it. Then we went on a date! My first date! I also met another country boy! He's from Nibelheim and a Chocobo. ...No! I'm not talking to animal, not anymore! >////< His name is Cloud and his hair looks like Chocobo--all spiky and messy. He should try my shampoo or visit you, letting you mingle with his hair. Afterall, it's you who make me look the way I do haha.

5 𝓎𝑒𝒶𝓇𝓈 𝒶𝑔𝑜

It's been a while, Mom. New season, new responsibility. I made 1st Class, but somehow, I'm not happy with it. I command an army now, rookies, so I can't let it make me down. And Sephiroth is my partner now, he trusts me. In short, I'm doing my best as SOLDIER--just as Angeal taught me, embrace my dreams and protect my honor. He's gone, Mom, but he's always in my heart. By the way, remember the girl I met in the church? It's a next level. I'm serious with her, Mom. Her name is Aerith. Well, she is... A bit spoiled, picky, clumsy ...and also can't cook. But I love her! Pretty is just a standard and normal is overrated--I love her with all of her quirks and flaws. She matches my energy. Whenever I spend my time with her, I feel respite. So, I can always keep up straight thanks to her. Will pick her to meet you, but not in the near future, I guess. Still working hard, saving money, building flowers wagon--she and I start this business. You must laugh but I'm selling flowers as a side job. We have a dream to fill Midgar with flowers. This city is opposite of Gongaga. I miss the greens, water, fresh air. So yeah, gonna make everyone here happy with the flowers!

𝐹𝑒𝓌 𝓂𝑜𝓃𝓉𝒽𝓈 𝒶𝑔𝑜

Dear, Mom. How many seasons have passed? I wish I could knock your door, see your face right now, and apologize for everything. Sorry for not being a good enough son for you. Ha! A bit melancholy suddenly? I'm not homesick or so! Home is... where the heart is, isn't it? Just so you know, I still have my friend, Cloud. I won't abandon him whatever happened. I'll be fine, don't worry. Because if I wasn't, then how could he? I'm still in the road to be a hero. I'm not giving up in this rough and dire. I finally find a meaning and purpose. I think it's because of you and pops raising me--and my late mentor, honor to him. So, thank you, Mom. Pops, too. Say hi to him. PS: Oh, and... I dunno what Cissnei--that girl in the black suit--told you, but she isn't my fiancee! I still have my heart for my flower girl. And I'm on the road to fulfill her 23 wishes. Just to make that sure.

[zaxxusu]

I've always been taught to be brave and strong. To see the hope when all feels wrong. I've always been taught not to be afraid. And look the price, the price I pay. I'm barely afloat. My sails are set, I'm coming home.

Mun’s note: Just another song from Zack Fair’s JP voice actor that I feel fits him much--and he wrote all of the lyrics. From album “Bright /  ぶらいと” (released on November 24, 2021)

ENGLISH TRANSLATION:

A soundless moonlit night, the clear air The world only I know at 4 a.m. I want to convey that scene with my words I wish I could deliver them, but I'm afraid

CHORUS I: Solitude makes me stronger That's why I'm starting to let go more and more I can hear the voices of my loved ones like they're waiting for me I close my eyes

I'm okay with it, I'm doing something about it I can still hear the right answers today. “Why do you keep doing it? Is it for someone else?” I'm looking for a meaning to move forward

CHORUS II: Unspeakable HOPE still keeps me alive I'm standing up for tomorrow I'll keep on going for what I believe in I’ll have faith of what only I can do

DREAMS are always suffering And I'm going through But the FUTURE, the story beckons.

Shall we begin?

CHORUS III: Let's go beyond the DREAMS Connecting the words that flow out Soar, soar, soar Stories that are born in front of you Don't ask questions, let them echo, now Don't be afraid

Let's go on, higher and higher Let's go, let's go, let's bridge it Come on, let's go to the end of the line Come on, let's go beyond the DREAMS

[misstoodles-doodles]

Zack Fair! for ??? 

I’m really anxious to know what’s going on with him in the remake!

[honorisen-a]

@powerofsoldier​​ ▮ cont.

“ Huh!? ” Zack would actually pause; first giving a glance to his left, then to his right to make sure no one around was actually staring! Then, he’d turn back “ Hold on, are you actually being serious? ”

“ The only thing something like that’s gonna do is get us both discharged from SOLDIER. Not make that score go up! You know that! ” It’d been his latest checkup, hadn’t it? That booster dose of extra mako they’d given him had finally made him loose it, hadn’t it?

[powerofsoldier]

“ What, so even our hot naked bodies aren’t good enough? Stupid thing doesn’t know attractive if it hit it  in  it’s the face. Of course I’m not serious.”

[zaxxusu]

"Boy oh boy, it’s just big typo!”

//You want Zack as main character and fight Sephiroth? While we all wait for what we may get in next part, this mod is far far better than modding Zack’s hair and scar into Cloud’s head and face. I can’t stop just watching this eveyday lol. 

The Remake mod about Cloud in wig really gets me on nerve as I keep grumbling, “Nope! Not his jawline, not his expression, not his height, and CH8-9 definitely is not my Zerith!” So I beg all of graphic makers here to use that clip, please.

I would say ‘I never signed up for this’ but honestly I don’t actually know if I did.

Hero, probably. (via totallycorrectpmdquotes)

//I’m makin’ new pinned post since I return. Tumblr really tries to copy Twitter, huh? But IMHO, the pinned post can be a promo where everyone can share. That’s what I learn from twitter RP community. But if everyone here didn’t agree, at least, I’ve allowed you to reblog mine.

[floragone-deactivated20220516]

zaxxusu asked:  “Everything turns pink in Valentine’s Day. See? You already stand out with that dress."  VALENTINE’S  DAY  ASKS.  

her  cheeks  seem  to  become  rose  colored  with  the  finish  of  his  sentence.  “  oh,  zack  —  that’s  really  sweet.  thank  you.  ”  

[zaxxusu]

Oh Aerith, that day she giggled at him, saying how silly to wear pink... it meant she agree with it.  But Zack enjoyed their interaction like this--and that pinky blush, no argue!

“I’m sorry but you’re gonna stuck with that color 'til the end of time,” he teased.

[greatxgospel]

@zaxxusu​ said: “ stay where you are, i’m on my way. “ he said, from the other side of universe STAY WHERE YOU ARE MEME | ACCEPTING

Aerith shook her head when she heard Zack’s voice. She felt so LONELY right now, and she was surrounded by those Whispers of Fate. How could she hear him ? She heard the voices of her ancestors sometimes, but this time felt different. Maybe it was because Zack wasn’t a Cetra. She still had felt him, when he had returned to the Planet. How could he talk to her ? And how could he be on his way ?

She stood, trying to use her magic to deal with the Whispers around her. “Zack ? Where are you ? How can I hear you ?” She asked. 

[zaxxusu]

That thing.

The same weird thing that had followed him since he escaped from the mako tank. The hollow creatures that was untouchable but could sway him not to hit the trooper in front of him. The one that it's mass could make a dome of huge city on his sight and exploded.

He had no idea. What he knew is they hindering him to reach Midgar.

And now, he couldn't just stand to see them bugging her. But how could he pass this unseen gate? How could he approach her? She's just close in an inch, just like the moment he walked down the wasteland as he sensed something next to him. He just let it pass because he wasn't sure what it was--a familiar sensation, but it's enough to make him smile as he imagined her face already since Midgar was on the eye.

Now he knew it was her passing him by.

'I'm on my way' Seems easy to be said than done.

But he had to fight this destiny, right? He always fight against 'em just not once! It's frustrating but he wouldn't give up. So he brandished his sword, hoping it cut the barrier and brought him to her side. He put all of his power to this swing up to the limit.

“HEEEAAAAAAAAAH~”

It contrived a wind slash, a big one that look like a mini hurricane swep out the surroundings in one blow. And from behind the dust, he came shielding her with broad blade. 

[zaxxusu]

Be My Valentine, Aerith

for @aerith-week​ last day

(February 14, [ ν ] - εγλ 0007)

One thing Zack memorize ‘bout Valentine’s Day... 

Midgar would be full of a certain color, a heart shape, and fancy ornament stuff; a weird view when all seems forced to be romantic in an instant–a minor annoyance since it makes him want to flirt and ask a girl to be his valentine for a day. Just one date! But he has no one. So, he forgot if it existed till he walked down town and see pink everywhere.

But that’s not after he met this girl.

Her characteristic merged every feminine in one complete package. Her giggles were pure and her love for flowers was classic, but still, she wanted a pretty ribbon for her hair. Not too camp it up not too underrated, average but adorable; giving your heart a desire to be a man she deserves. Building three carts is just a simple case. Tho’ she wasn’t that weak. She could be spunky, but still feeling safe more with him as a woman who reflects the need of a man to be a hero for her. And it was him.

Wait, still one thing remained so she’d be perfect, looking good. 

She's dressed in pink!  So she would stand out already. And that also means, she is always his valentine.

Also, he loved food. So he think he would get chocolate cookies she bakes with her mom, but he lied he didn’t want it from her. Aerith herself was priceless and it already make him speechless. It wasn't just a little desire only for dating her on this special day, nope!! He wanted to…

Treasuring her, dancing with her, kissing her, just spending one night with her. Even more in the future!!

Not build a family yet, Mom, he could hear his mother’s voice asking that. But don’t worry, it’s already on his mind.

Speakin’ of Valentine’s Day…

He imagined he must be the opposite of dudes looking for special gifts they need to buy for their girl. Such an advantage already! Yes, he would teach ‘em how to treat a special lady in their life; handed her flowers! Though, he dunno if she already had an idea to gain money for this circumstance. But hey, she could arrange a bouquet and he would help her. Not to mess it up!

Special day, special order, special price… good.  It’d be a very successful day for selling flowers. 

And in addition to attract more customers, he’d love to make an effort for decorating the wagon again to be cuter. It was also about promise--a dream, as they could share their happiness to be together and to see other people in Midgar in joy with their loved ones too thanks to the flowers!! And as the wagon being empty, wallet becomes full, with all sunshine and clouds above covering ‘em up; wouldn't it be a perfect date? Perfect day, mhh?

Speakin’ of Valentine’s Day…

He was now in somewhere area that far away from her. Three months seemed to have passed and it meant he had yet fulfilled even a single word he had vowed… to make her happy, to make her not wait too long. He wanted to see her smile right on his face, with a gloves hand swirling over her brown bangs; this mouth would begin to speak.

So many phrases, so many feelings; but he had learned from her 23 tiny wishes how to summarize ‘em up in one sentence. Just make it straight!!

“𝘼𝙚𝙧𝙞𝙩𝙝, 𝙄 𝙡𝙤𝙫𝙚 𝙮𝙤𝙪.”

Sounds cheesy, but it’s true.

[zaxxusu]

“Oi, oi, cameraman. Over here, my face is over here. Nice shot!”

DAMNIT... Actually, he grumbled why his handsome face isn’t shown in this palette. They even give that fat chocobo spot, how unfair! This is the feeling of being betrayed 2nd time by a company you serve, huh? Well, he won't let that frustration expressed on his face so he just positively says,

"Happy Valentine's Day, everyone!"
