Summary
On Gaia, every culture has a slightly different interpretation of what Soulmarks mean. Some say they promise romance, some family, some friendship, and some nothing at all. But if there’s one thing nearly everyone agrees on, it’s that these marks are of the gods. Only in Nibelheim do they ever seem to put a name to which god bestowed the Marks upon humanity. Their answer?
Loki
Cloud, who has the names of four SOLDIERs written on his arms, would very much have appreciated knowing how seriously everyone else takes Loki's mischief before he got to Midgar.

Summary
By law, packs take care of their own. Everyone has one, arranged by the gods and linked by powerful bonds of magic. All it takes is a touch to know who belongs with whom. All it takes is reciprocity in a shared dream.
Except, Cloud wants nothing to do with packs, or destiny, or magical dreams, not even if his packmates are the four most terrifyingly powerful and incredible men in the world. If he has his way, they’ll never even figure out that he’s meant to be with them.
Too bad he’s a terrible liar.

Summary
The Planet decided to throw a random handful of people into the blender and hit frappe in order to make Cloud's pack. At least, that's what he assumes as he books it out of the Tower to avoid Rufus-fucking-Shinra (and Reeve, because even though Reeve is nice he is unfortunately attached to Rufus), only to run into his final packmate in the form of a man with a gun for an arm and a baby on his chest.
What the hell even is his life.

Summary
Cloud has been playing Cat-and-Mouse with Genesis for a while now. After all, they are supposed to be packmates, as appointed by the Goddess. But Cloud isn’t interested in his destined packmates anymore, especially not after Angeal’s betrayal of Zack, Zack’s death, and Sephiroth’s betrayal of everyone. Genesis is never going to win the game he insists on playing.
So when Cloud wakes up in the past, he knows exactly what to do. His pack doesn’t deserve a second chance, but a lot of other people do.
Genesis, meanwhile, only petitioned the Goddess to remedy his own mistakes. He didn't mean to take his surviving packmate along with him, but he won't object either. Cloud never believed his sincerity, but surely he will now that everyone has been given a second chance... right?
Catch me if you can.
