Everyone, know first and foremost that Malek is to blame for this post.  I would have rather saved this material for another day.  However, he is insisting that I use one of the various trinkets that I had encountered through  my years of going through fanfiction.

Well, now that you know who to blame, let us start with the how this story was even located.  For, this is not the type that I would have searched out on a normal day.  First of all, this story isn’t even a thousand words long.  Hrmph, if I tired, I could probably make this very entry longer than the story.  No, I do not generally read such short stories.  So, it normally would not have come up in my searches.

In fact, this story was located on purpose.  My friend, Kat_Aclysm, and I had once had a conversation on how people are strange putting characters together that should have no right or purpose being together.  During this discussion, we theorized the various sorts of wrongs that one could possibly come up with.  In general, while we knew that there was a high chance that there would be someone who would put the various characters that we were discussing together, we had hoped that we wouldn’t find the situation to be real.

Well, out of sheer desire to humor myself for a few moments back then, I looked up this story.  Actually, I just put in Cait Sith and Sephiroth in the character filters and spun the wheel.  I fully expected to find absolutely no hits.  Who would even think of such a pairing other than a laugh for a post or something like that?  Well, someone did and someone actually wrote a story on it.

So, Malek, are you happy?  Here is that story.  A villain as villain as can be and a stuffed toy as side-kick foolish as can be.  They by no means should have a fic where they do things together in the least.

Most who associate with me know one very important thing about this Seferia: She is a huge addict to fanfiction. She spends a lot of her free time digging through the piles of amateur fiction found on fanfiction.net in order to find the gems that actually catch her attention and draw her in. On her way, she has a large tendency to find many stories that are, to put it mildly, not up to par. However, today Seferia will not be focusing on one of those.

However, do be warned, there will come a day in which Seferia will once again find a fic that will make her rant. It will not be pretty.

No, Seferia will not be doing that today. Instead, she will be handing out a stamp of approval. For this fanfic is one of the ones that she actually enjoys following. As such, she feels like sharing it. She also feels like stopping with the third person to give her actual review.

Meet Final Fantasy VII: Another Side By: Mystwalker. I cannot say that the idea behind this fanfic is overly original or anything, it is indeed simply an alternative universe fic where Sephiroth does not go evil. However, the lack of novelty doesn’t bother me. This story is well written and has had several clever elements to it that keep my attention. I also have found no forced relationships as of yet, which please me quite a bit.

About the only thing that I find to be disappointing is that the story line does seem to follow the game’s story a bit too much. However, the author has tweaked and twisted this enough that it feels like their own take and not a retelling of the game. So, I have no problems about forgiving them for presenting the game anew.

This story is still in progress, so their is a high chance that like many fics that I like, it will never be finished. However, I do hope that this author does indeed follow through.

Anyway, I’m done abusing my blog to share a story that I like. Beware though, as I said, Seferia does tend to find more bad fanfiction that good fanfiction. So, the next time this category comes up, it may be a dozy.
