So, starting with Aerith, why? Because it's Aerith and I can
lol. So, in the events of FF7 proper,
she's 22. However, in MY canon, Aerith
is 25 come AtP. Thinking back, this
makes her 13 in BBS, which is logical, given Zack's apparent age in Olympus Coliseum. (Granted, no, they're not in diapers like Cid
joked about, however, this is Cid, and that might ONLY be the manga, correct me
if I'm wrong.) So, yes, she's older in
my canon than she ever gets to be in the actual FF timeline. And since FF7 hasn't even happened in my
timeline... well... shoot me. It just
means she gets more time to live and be happy with Zack. Ha!
Speaking of Zack.
According to FF7 stuff, Zack's a year older than Aerith. So, he's 26 in AtP. Cool, logical, makes sense. He's 14 when he's trying to become a hero in
Olympus. Also logical, I mean, look at
all of what Sora was able to accomplish at 14.
Zack and Aerith ran into each other around 15 and 16, (which is younger
than they meet in Crisis Core) but, hey, it makes more sense that Zack runs
into her then on his expedition to become a mercenary. Granted, he was always going off on another
adventure. But hey, she always waited
for him. ALWAYS. And now he's back to stay for a while. Granted, yes, it's been 10 years and he and
Aerith are still... merely dating. But
hey, he's had wars to fight. He met
Cloud along the way, and by proxy was introduced to Tifa. He's enjoying his life.
Cloud. Cloud is a
year younger than Aerith in FF7.
Perfect. Cloud is then 24 come
AtP. He was 12 in BBS. He wasn't in Hollow Bastion with the
others. He was in Nibelheim,
actually. He met Zack on their missions
to become mercenaries in their mid- to late-teens. Therefore, he was introduced to Aerith by
proxy. (I know I said in here that Aerith
probably encouraged Cloud to bring Tifa along so he wasn't a third wheel, but
Tifa and Cloud seeing each other during this time… so I’m not sure if it’d work
the way I have it figured out…) Yes, in
the FF7 universe, by the time he's 24, Dirge has already happened, but I'm
having to change canon here because KH created its own canon. I'm working it out. He's 24 right now and dealing with his
darkness. Darkness that he fell into in
his mid-teens, before he met Zack even.
Tifa. Let's do Tifa
next. (Sorry, Leon, I know you're next
on my list, but the readers would probably like some order, so it'll be
Tifa.) Anyway, so Tifa's a year younger
than Cloud, putting her at 23 in AtP.
This makes her 11 in BBS in Nibelheim.
She's in her late-teens when she finally gets introduced to Zack and
AErith. And she's been on the road ever
since shortly after Cloud went on his
own. (She left to home to follow
him.) Currently, she's with her
psuedo-family in Hollow Bastion until Cloud gets it in his head to move again
(which he shouldn't... I'm not planning for him to.) (Is what I'm typing even making sense... I
feel like a TARDIS, speaking at several different time periods at once... the
past, the present, and the little tidbits of the future that get sprinkled
in...)
Leon. FF8. Easier stuff! So Squall/Leon is 17. In KH, Leon's older. Awesome.
Especially since I have it to where FF8 happened sometime in between BBS
and KH1. It just makes the most sense. Anywho, in AtP, Leon is 27. Making him actually older than everyone
else. However, I just get the feeling
that he's like an older brother almost to Aerith and whatnot. He was 15 in BBS, saw some crappy stuff
happen to Hollow Bastion shortly thereafter, went on a happy little adventure
at 17 with Rinoa as a mercenary. Now,
ten years later (WHY IS HE NOT MARRIED TO HER YET).... well, he's been dealing
with darkness of the worlds and stuff.
And so has she. It'll
happen. I'll tell you that. They'll get married. I will confirm this one. He, after all this time, may actually settle
down at the end of Betwixt and Between.
Rinoa, who just logically comes after Leon. Even though she calls him Squall and he
doesn't have the heart to stop her for it.
Rinoa's the same age as Leon. In
her mid-teens, her world was having some problems with monsters and darkness
and stuff, so she went searching for mercenaries to help because during that
time, there weren't a whole lot of Keyblade-wielders readily available. (This is in between BBS and KH1, mind
you.) She finds Squall, and they have an
adventure and fall in love. Now, she's a
happy age of 27, she's got her Sorceress Powers quite in check and she's
epic. (Think Rinoa at her best in the
game, combined with Monty Oum's Dead Fantasy, combined with just more
epicness.) And she loves Squall and
she's acting on that now, now that she's not at risk of her powers backfiring
on her in some way.
Yuffie, let's do Yuffie next. Yuffie's a fun one. Back to FF7 and KH not lining up
WHATSOEVER. So, KH actually says that
she's 16 in KH1. She's also 16 in
FF7. Awesome. Not.
Well, since I have an age to go off of, like, officially compared to
some of the others. (Though, I think it
might say Leon's in his 20's somewhere...) She's 6 in BBS then, happy and young
and still young when Hollow Bastion gets sundered. (Good word, sundered.) Poor thing... Anywho, by AtP she's 18, which
is her Advent Children Age. Lovely. Somehow, I've gotten her a year off the
difference between what she and Cloud are in FF7. Lame.
Oh well. Not changing it.
Quistis. Quistis,
like Rinoa, (though I didn't mention it in Rinoa's paragraph) is not in KH, so
there really isn't any age comparing problems.
She is, however, a year older than Leon.
Therefore, she is 28 in AtP, making her the oldest one of the
group. Back in the day, like, when she
was 18 or 19 or so, she had her adventures with monsters and Ultimecia. Then she traded off between being a teacher
at Balamb Garden, and helping Rinoa with her Sorceress powers. Now she's on a different mission with Rinoa,
(which is basically to be where Squall is) and while she's at it, she's helping
out Hollow Bastion, which is still having problems with darkness--thanks to
Xehanort.
Zell also has no presence in KH. However, he's the same age as Rinoa and
Squall. He's 27 by AtP and is a
mercenary like Zack. However, whereas
Zack always has a habit of coming home to Aerith, Zell just goes back to Balamb
Garden. (Or another Garden, idk. But Balamb's where he's based out of.) He, unlike Rinoa, is not planning on settling
down anytime soon. And he has YET to find
a girl that he likes that likes him back.
But, idk, maybe....
And, Cid… um… I never did quite figure out his age for the
last time I posted this. I still don’t quite have his age figured out. I’ll bet he’s probably in his early- to
mid-thirties. This goes along with how
old he is compared to others from FF7.
(Specifically if he’s 34 right now.)
I mean, he might be a TAD older than that because he needs to be the
significant adult of the party when Hollow Bastion was plunged into darkness in
order to logically take on Leon, Aerith and Yuffie. *shrug*
I wouldn’t say he’s any older than 38 though.
So, spoilers a tad... Denzel and Marlene. Who very well may come to play a part in this
if I go through with everything.
Currently, Denzel is 9 and Marlene is 7--older than they are in even
Advent Children, however, I mean... so is everyone else from FF7. I BELIEVE that Denzel and Cloud are the
accurate number of years apart, however.
And, this will end up working quite nicely with another little project
that I may end up doing... Heheh...
Anywho... yeah... um... that's it, I suppose. If you have any questions, ask. I kinda feel like I'm spamming you with posts right now... but I'm REALLY trying to get everything ported over and one post a day isn't going fast enough.
