Title: Advent Of Dreams
Clorith - May 5, 2005 05:56 PM (GMT)
Hiya all of you! Well I'm posting this here because I really need some constructive criticism. Right now I can't decide on the ending so I'm taking a little poll. :lol: You can select more than one option. I might not go with the one that wins, though... Have to see what the general feel is like. Yup, so please be kind and read my little drabble. Any feedback is most welcomed!
There are quite a few chapters, but they're pretty short, so it shouldn't take too long to read them. Thanks in advance!

First off... :fangirl: Sorry, I'm just a big fan of your fic.
Second, are you updating soon? :sad: It's been awhile and I wanna know what happens in the next chapter. How long must I endure the waiting... THE WAITING.... :sad: ... the waiting for chapter 14...
Third, a happy/bittersweet ending... where Cloud dies... and is reunited with Aeris again... But, I'm sure whatever direction you take with your fic, it will be great.
Keep doing a great job!!!

This is my favorite FF7 fic! (or at least one of them) :D . I'm all for a bittersweet ending :sad: ... they are, in my opinion, the best kind.
I swear, I am the biggest sap! :lol:
:cleris:
Clorith - May 6, 2005 04:04 AM (GMT)
Thanks, you two! :huggle:
Ah yes, that's the problem! I'm a sucker for sap! :woot: But... I'm bad at writing it! Angst is by far easier! So a bittersweet or sad ending would be easier to squeeze into the plot. LOL, so that's why I wanna see what people think.
Right now... happy ending is winning! :lol: *thinks happy thoughts* It's hard, I tell you! :P
Real Emotion: I know, I'm sorry! My exams just ended so I finally have time! But I'm stuck thinking that I need to know the ening before I write Chapter 14...

A bittersweet, yet happy ending where Cloud dies and is reunited with Aeris would be perfect for me. ^_^
I do love your story Clorith, it's excellently written. :fangirl:

Actually I feel like writing a one-shot first. Erm, sap warning in advanced! :huggle:
Buhon - May 7, 2005 06:29 AM (GMT)
I'm gonna vote for bittersweet... seems appropriate for any FF7 fic, though a happy ending is always nice
Clorith - May 7, 2005 07:54 AM (GMT)
Yeah, that's the thing. They're all bittersweet cos that's the best way to end. Oh the dilemma! :woot:

The perfect sad ending that'll get most everyone mad:
Cloud dies the moment, Aeris, newly ressurected for good, comes back. :sad:
Everchanging - May 7, 2005 08:32 PM (GMT)
Oh Materia Thief, that would be too much, just simply TOO sad, I feel like crying already!
Clorith - May 8, 2005 03:40 AM (GMT)
LOL! If I do that, I'll get Cleris flames, and that would be a first. :lol:
Maybe it'll be fun to try... Just kidding. :woot:

You're story is wonderful. I was reading over my brothers shoulder as he was reading it last night. Then he kinda fell asleep. But anyway, I hope that you make Aeris come back and stay back. Cloud had a close encounter with death and it would just be silly to make him die after he came close already. Well, thats just my opinion, but the way it goes is up to you.
Clerith-son - June 2, 2005 03:46 AM (GMT)
Sorry, so much time, and I have never congratulated you for this fic. So far this is the best fanfic, I've ever read, regarding FFVII. In what the conclusion of the story concerns, so far I've seen it as a very complex story, in wich Cloud has been so close, but at the same time, so far of Aerith, like the last scene in Cloud's dream.
Going along with that complexity, I don't think it should be Aerith the one going to Cloud, but Cloud being the one going to Aerith, ergo, he dies, I don't think that life, is longer the best scenario (for calling lit that way) for them meeting again, since from my point of view they, and their love has already trascended life. I think it should be a happy/bittersweet ending. Bittersweet, because Cloud dies (his death should be as touching as Aerith's, in order to make it more powerful and memorable), and happy, because he finds Aerith and his everlasting happiness at the end. But at the same time, the whole story has been written by you, and I'd really love to see YOUR conclusion to the story.
Clorith - June 2, 2005 06:35 AM (GMT)
Thanks for the comments, Iris and Clerith-son! They mean a lot to me! :huggle:
I'll try writing a new chappie on my 10-day trip. It's more fun to write on paper. That and there's this little high you get when you're afraid someone read what you wrote by accident. :lol:
Starlight Night - June 2, 2005 07:12 AM (GMT)
You are very much welcome. Have fun or your 10 - day trip.
Clorith - June 2, 2005 07:29 AM (GMT)
Thank you, darling! :huggle: Provided I don't die of boredom first! :woot:
Starlight Night - June 2, 2005 07:59 AM (GMT)
lol. Hopefully you won't.
Bloodbath - June 2, 2005 11:43 AM (GMT)
Have you updated, Clorith? I know I haven't! :lmao: I'd like to read another chapter, then maybe I'll find more inspiration for a next for mine... ::nudge:: ^_^
...the polls look very close. ^_^ Have fun on your trip... or is it done now...? :unsure:
Clorith - June 2, 2005 02:19 PM (GMT)
Nope, I'm only leaving on Sunday. ^_^ Yep, right now it's a 3-way tie!! :woot:
Hey, you update, too!!! :cleris:
Bloodbath - June 3, 2005 02:32 AM (GMT)
I could... but my inspiration has zilched, and the muses are evil people. :cry: I've changed the formatting a bit, but for only chapter one. :sad:
Clorith - July 15, 2005 01:51 PM (GMT)
Aha... Sorry I haven't updated this fic, but I posted my one-shot last week! Oh drat, didn't notice that ff.net somehow deleted one of my spacings and now I have a typo. :ermm: Anyways, you can read this if you want, it's a mini peace offering for my constant procrastination. :lol:

That was very good too, Clorith. ^_^
Clorith - July 17, 2005 12:58 PM (GMT)
Thank you, darling! :huggle:
Marlene - July 20, 2005 03:15 PM (GMT)
What is it basically about,because if I knew what it is about,I'd say someone dies,but not Cloud or Aerith.
Seii Monogatari - August 18, 2005 09:22 PM (GMT)
A bittersweet ending, I want Aeris to come back for a bit, and for Cloud to live. :(
Eternity-Knight - August 19, 2005 07:34 AM (GMT)
*finishes reading the first fic*
Wow... That's all I can say is wow...
Vanessa Strife-Gainsborough - January 16, 2006 05:13 AM (GMT)
I'm all in for happy endings. i can't bear to see Cloud die, it would be just too sad.:cray: But hey, its just a fan fic. What I would really want is to have Aeris come back alive :woot:, :cloud: proposes to :aeris: :scream:, and then they would have kids a few years later :swoon:.....:lmao:
But you don't have use those ideas if you don't want to <_< ......
Meggie - January 27, 2006 10:08 PM (GMT)
That's the spirit Vanessa!!!And congratulations to the author!!! :fangirl:
Cetra_Aerith - February 5, 2006 10:28 AM (GMT)
yayhappy ending plz!!!
Clorith :sad: it's almost beena year >___< when are you gonna update ;-;?
Vanessa Strife-Gainsborough - February 5, 2006 10:54 PM (GMT)
I would love sad endings but then I would get all depressed and keep on thinking :"Why, why did this happen? :cry: "
But romantic happy endings is something I feel more comfortable with!! :luv:
Flirtatious - February 10, 2006 05:19 AM (GMT)
Vanessa Strife-Gainsborough - February 10, 2006 01:15 PM (GMT)
oh wow. its a tie bewteen bittersweet and happy endings :o. i wonder which one will win :hmm:
Umm this question is silly :ermm: but, what's a bittersweet ending like? :/
Lynn - February 10, 2006 01:17 PM (GMT)
A bittersweet ending would be something like Cloud finally meeting Aerith in the Promised Land, then watching her fade away into the surrounding Lifestream, staring sadly as she waves goodbye to him. It would be a happy ending, but also a sad tone about all of it.
Depending on how you view the AC ending, it could be considered "bittersweet" too.
And I'm totally pulling that example out of my behind, because I sure as heck don't know the ending Clorith has in mind. xD
Bloodbath - February 10, 2006 02:26 PM (GMT)
::waits patiently for Clorith:: ... :mellow:
Hah, I'm not allowed to say anything... I haven't even updated my stories because I deleted them... and inspiration is coming in slowly... ::looks around::
Clorith, please us all with a happy ending! Poor Cloud has suffered enough... ::pokes him::
