not accepting any thoughts on this because don't care i'm right but if i wrote a game in the Big Year 2023 which involved the main heroine, who is basically the embodiment of the goddess of ice, getting kidnapped twice and having to be saved by her bf, i would be embarrassed.

lol cid outside talbor chainsmoking and clive asks what's wrong. cid says he feels sorry for jote, is all - clearly deep in love with a man who doesn't recognise it, and she is no longer of much use to him. and clive is stunned, not having realised jote's love for his brother

and clive and cid referring to each other as their husband is divine. cid thrilled to ask for a room in an inn, and to order an early breakfast for himself and his husband. clive picking up tobacco at a market, asking for the cherry cloves - his husband's favourite.

i love thinking about cidclive (generally) with uncle byron. when he arrives at the hideaway & finds that his boy is married. has been for years! with a child!!! it's unthinkable. then a man almost his age covered in engine grease sticks out his grubby hand for byron. terrible.

can't remember if i've already posted about this but i'm thinking of a very unwell & amnesiac clive being recovered from the beach and, trying to comfort him, cid & jill bring him to mysidia for rest - if he dies, at least it's in comfort. cid cooks for him. jill reads to him

thinking that torgal has an apple tag on his collar. and that mid in her childhood had an apple tag on her. and as an adult, she has an apple tag on her. and cid has an apple tag on himself too.

still DTA pilled so thinking - valisthea where being gay is hush hush, esp in nobles. clive raised with the expectation of finally satisfying his mother with a good match. and after the years pass, clive is on cid's sofa, being tenderised with kisses on his jaw, cheek, mouth

square enix you have a very important announcement about ffxii to make. square enix it involves many ivalice projects. square enix you will forget the number seven

i didn't finish a fic about this in time for valentines day as i'm pretty checked put of cidclive for the moment but i fully believe he was born on valentines day and is the patron saint of all love. there. i said it. it's law
