Have a little Redemption Road:

“Of course you look good in it,” he said. “You’re beautiful.”

“What?”

He caught the tail end of his own words and froze over the cutting board. “You are,” he said, mouth racing against the fear of sounding cheap and hollow. He set the knife down and glanced up. She was staring at him, holding the folds of the dress up off the floor. He forced his fingers to lie still. “It was just about the first thing I thought when I saw you,” he said, “that you’re beautiful.”

“Oh,” she said. Long folds of fabric dropped to the floor, covering her bare feet. A flush passed over her face. Sephiroth began to wonder if he had done her wrong again, not saying it sooner, not saying it enough.

She looked away, twisting her fingers in draped cloth. “I thought you were a total weirdo.”

Yeah, I’m going to do this for Marriageverse Aeriseph anyway, because I’ve hardly even thought of my other pairings in months. Even when I stray from that ‘verse it’s still other Aerisephs. Nothing like rekindling an old love.

who is more likely to hurt the other? Sephiroth has the capacity physically, Aeris is more likely to emotionally.
who is emotionally stronger? Aeris, not that she doesn’t have her weak spots
who is physically stronger? Seph, obviously.
who is more likely to break a bone? Seph, because he’s just more often at risk.
who knows best what to say to upset the other? Aeris. Tongue on that woman.
who is most likely to apologise first after an argument? Seph. Sometimes it’s just strategic.
who treats who’s wounds more often? Aeris treats Seph’s wounds because she’s the healer while he’s the soldier and the cook, and therefore gets wounded more often.
who is in constant need of comfort? Sephiroth, but comfort as in a nice warm sometimes routine home life is usually enough.
who gets more jealous? Aeris, if only because Sephiroth learned the hard way to lock that the hell down.
who’s most likely to walk out on the other? Aeris. More like throw Seph out, but only that one time.
who will propose? Aeris.
who has the most difficult parents? Again, Aeris, because her family won’t shut up even though they’re dead.
who initiates hand-holding when they’re out in public? Aeris at first, then equally.
who comes up for the other all the time? Kind of a mutual thing.
who hogs the blankets? Aeris to the extreme.
who gets more sad? Seph kind of always is but he hangs on to the good stuff.
who is better at cheering the other up? Seph, because the lengths he’ll go, and also his own funks are pretty resistant.
who’s the one that playfully slaps the other all the time after they make silly jokes? Aeris. Seph would never raise a hand to her unless she’s in a mood for spanking.
who is more streetwise? Definitely Aeris.
who is more wise? Still Aeris.
who’s the shyest? Seph.
who boasts about the other more? Seph.
who sits on who’s lap?

Aeris sits on his lap because if they do it the other way around he’d crush her.

WIP Last Line Meme! I got tagged by @comebackwhen. Thanks! XD

So, growing out of that remarkably coherent house-hunting dream I had a while back:

“Your ancestors lived in giant eggs?”

“The hell they did,” Aeris whispered. “This L. Raney guy is studying the wrong history books.”

Sephiroth looked aside. “You lived in giant shells,” he said. “We lived in giant shells.”

“That’s different,” Aeris said, with a little toss of the head. “Besides, if we made houses out of eggs, they wouldn’t be this ugly.”

Tossing this one out to @klepto-maniac0, @literaryeagle and @zephfair, if you guys want it.
