I guess people didn't much like Angsty Aerith from the last chapter, since I only got one review for it! Alas, Angsty Aerith may be here for a while longer...
This is a chapter I wrote when I realised that there are several forward leaps in time in this series and I hadn't explained why these leaps don't seem to affect Tifa. I also wanted a slightly more light-hearted chapter for once!

Tifa.
Time: a system or method of measuring or reckoning the passage of time.
There was no time.
Literally.
Time did not exist.
It didn't pass.
It didn't stop.
The realisation that whilst she was here…
Seconds…
Minutes…
Hours…
Days…
Months…
Even years could be passing.
And she was in limbo.
Without time.
Yet…
Somehow…
She still aged.
