Fanfic -- "Worth the Waking"

[sekiharatae]

Title: Worth the Waking
Author/Artist: sekiharatae
Fandom: Final Fantasy VII
Pairing/characters: Zack/Cissnei
Rating: NC-17
Warnings: Sex and possible (hopefully not) OOC-ness
Prompt/challenge you're answering: Zack and Cissnei enjoy morning wakeup sex
Note: I like these two together in Crisis Core, but I've never written them before. I haven't actually finished the game yet, either, so I "know" them from watching the cutscenes and such, so I'm hoping the characters are recognizable.

i find cissnei/zack fanfics to be light and free of a great burden. the trouble with zack/aerith fanfic is that some writers think aerith is too ethereal and angelic to imagine her getting down and dirty--and that it is sacrilegious to write about a beloved iconic character who died, in any type of sexual way. so they write aerith as being asexual, a vestal virgin, an OOC nymphomaniac, or someone who has nothing better to do than be cloud's 24 hour guardian angel with no (after)life of her own.

cissnei is a much more ambiguous character(we don't even know her first name/real name)--which makes her an empty canvas full of potential for writers-especially in the smut department;)

i actually got a girl crush on cissnei after playing crisis core--she's just too cute. i wanted to smack zack for mooning over aerith when he had this great girl under his nose (and the typical thick-headed boy ignored all her subtle come-ons). *sighs* cissei was even trying to find him before he died:(

i still love zack/aerith, but cissnei always creeps in. great story! i loved how zack was more cautious about hurting cissnei because of his SOLDIER super-strength. typical sweet, thoughtful zack. as much as i love angsty, brooding, dominating cloud, zack's light-heartedness and straight-forward approach to getting what he wants is hot too;)
