Reno: Nah, I still say dungeon. Worked on Rude!
Rude: ... that's not what--
Reno: Shhh, don't speak.

Turks advice:
Tseng: Stalk them from childhood until as an adult they realize that you are their safest option.
Rude: ... Listen. But don't speak. Ever.
Elena: Obey their every order with relentless violence, and eventually they will realize you are far more valuable than some /lab specimen/.

Actually just had an idea for a scene where Reno starts telling her about all the war crimes Zack committed (unknowingly or not) in Wutai (his weird way of trying to get her to stop mourning him) and that's the entire reason she's salty at him in Remake.

"Who the hell is gonna stop me, squirt?"
She narrowed her eyes a moment, considering that. He was not wearing the lab coats, or the patient jumpsuits. "… well, it's mean."
He made a face, upper lip pulled up, teeth bared, like an oni mask. "Yeah, I'm a mean, mean guy."

"Pssh. I ain't never been a kid," he replied, swiping auburn hair out of his eyes. The length looked less like style and more like lack of care. "You know where we are?"
She blinked. "Shinra tower."
"Yeah, I know that, dipshit—what floor?"
"You can't call me that," she responded, judgmentally.

"Hey. Kid."
She had been six years old. The memory of it was surprisingly clear.
"Yeah, kid. You."
She cocked her head. "You're a kid, too."
He was. She hadn't been good with ages, but his voice was still high, and he had the gangly limbs of someone who hadn't yet reached puberty.

I actually started a Rena/Aerith fic related to the original thought, maybe I should go back and work on it some more ...
(It was an episodic fic that involved them first meeting /before/ Aerith escaped from the tower and showed all their encounters after.)

'The Sexual Politics of Meat' is a bit of a complex one, but it has some interesting concepts.
It's been a while, but 'Herland' is a fiction about matriarchy that I recall liking when i read it.

Recently started 'Men Who Hate Women' by Laura Bates, I have 'Invisible Women' by Caroline Perez in my queue.
Also a deep cut but I don't think many ppl have read 'the Child Catchers' by Kathyrn Joyce, it's about corruption and exploitation in the adoption industry, although it's out of date.

Ah, I'm afraid most of my other readings are non-fiction about race and feminism, lol. Commercial novels haven't really done it for me in a while--not quite queer enough 😂.

One of the most frustrating things in Remake, for me, was how quickly Tifa forgave Cloud for trying to kill her. But that is who she is as a character. She believes in the best in people. That is the OPPOSITE of dependance.

"Not today," Rude grunts, under his breath.
When Death surprises him—when it finally catches him unaware, and has it's moment—he hopes that Rude is there, too. Maybe that's cruel of him to hope, but he would love for the last thing he ever sees to be Rude's eyes.

Because as he lies there, on the tower, breath gone, hands empty, he can see death, out of the corner of his eye.
He nods to it. It sees him.
He sees it back.
And then Rude is above him, blocking out the plate, the metal sky. Blocking out death.
He nods to it. It sees him.

He's always known he will not get that. He will die in surprise. It will sneak up on him, hit him in the back, when he least expects it.
He will deserve it. He knows that, too.
That's why he knows that he is not going to die today.
