and now i gotta poke you for the others i've thought about. zack was easy, i had to peg him as a sagittarius because i have a bad habit of falling HARD for that particular sign (i'm an aquarius, goofy fire signs are my kryptonite). angeal, the only thing i thought fit him was taurus. there's some earthy, unmoving aspect to him. but i think other influences in his natal chart soften him a bit. that or being so close to genesis his whole life, lol
i'm so sorry for the late reply, work has been kicking my ass😭
spot on with sagittarius! it's actually my favourite sun sign and i love sag suns sm, makes sense why i'm in love with zack. funny you say you're drawn to fire signs/sagittarius suns as an aquarius, because aerith is canonically an aquarius sun! you're definitely not the only one
i honestly think being a sagittarius sun really suits him and the headcanons i have of him as well, especially modern headcanons. sagittarius placements are stereotyped for being very extroverted, which zack is, and he's also a huge flirt and playful. he'd be a massive party animal which is another sagittarius stereotype, and honestly, it is true for every single sag sun i meet. they're all party animals. they love it. they're literally the life of the party.
i see cancer in him too. i personally see him as a cancer moon, which is a domicile placement so yay for zack! cancers are stereotyped as big manipulative crybabies, but that's only if their placement is in an insecure spot. i see zack as very grounded at times, and i think his cancer moon would be fully-realised and secure. that doesn't mean he'd never struggle with his emotions and anything inernal, but i think he has a stronger grasp and understanding of his emotions/mental health more than the average person. at least in the ff7 universe.
he's without a doubt, absolutely, positively, a libra venus. which is another domicile placement smh sephiroth would be so jealous. venus is happy here. it loves it here. it thrives here. he's a flirt, which absolutely suits libra venus. he loves love. can't get enough of it. is unable to help himself.
i can't think of a rising sign or the rest of zack's placements, but i'm getting back to it i promise!
angeal has a taurus placement. he even looks like a taurus sun or rising it's uncanny. not only is there a stereotype for taurus placements loving food but there's also a stereotype of them, and all earth placements, having a natural affinity to plants lol. quite on the nose but it makes sense. taurus placements are softer than their other earth counterparts, but they're very unyielding and stubborn (taurus is fixed earth, ugh they'd be such a pain. when they are set on something they do not change lol. taurus is also the opposite sign of scorpio, which is fixed water, so like...yeah...yikes. the similarities are scary).
i'm gonna need to replay crisis core to delve into angeal's character a bit more because my memory is a bit foggy, but i think he'd be very earth placement heavy. i need to construct a basic natal chart for him asap. but i think he'd be very 10th and 11th house dominant!
I tried to write something to sum up my thoughts on this, but then it got longer and longer and tbh I'm itching to write a fic set in this AU djjdkf I think I could develop on their inner feelings more than in the comic form
Before posting the first part I didn't realize people had such strong opinions on how this would play out lmaooo
imo, of course Zoro wants to fight Sanji, not with actual intent to harm (they threaten each other on the daily, come on), but because that's how they are together, how they communicate. He respects Luffy's decisions and their goal here, which is to learn what's really going on with Sanji, but he's gonna be pissy about it all he wants. They both have so many intense and conflicted feelings about this and neither has any idea how to resolve them. So they fight.
ofc yall are free to headcanon this interaction any other way you want <333
The fact that Ruggie used his UM on Leona to make him smile even tho he himself is injured and on the verge of collapsing is so ☹️☹️☹️ his arms all messed up and he has tears in his eyes and yet he still did this ☹️☹️☹️☹️
[After they talk about Pac's debt to the Pancake Mafia, and Pac warns her about Sir Reaper]
Bagi: I think you're the one that needs to be careful, because soon you might lose your other leg.
Pac: N-no! NO! Please don't! Stop- stop! STOP TALKING LIKE YOUR BROTHER!
Bagi: [Laughs]
Pac: I'll pay you– I'm going to pay you!
I want to give a MASSIVE thank you to @wasabi-ribs, who was kind enough to check my translations and help me with the parts I missed (and also reviewed the final subtitled video)!

Bagi: Pac, pay the rent!
Pac: I'm going to pay! Hey- I'm going to pay right this second, the money that I owe you, and... and I'm- I'm serious! And look, if you want- if you have more money... If I pay your 4,500, will you lend me 4,500? No, then I'll actually drown in fees. [Laughs]
Bagi: [Laughs] I'll lend you, I'll lend you
Pac: No, not really Bagi. You've got those red eyes– I'm scared, Bagi. I don't know– I don't know what happened, actually it's an eye infection, I know– But something tells me it's not just an eye infection, that it's also some other things, you know? Like, um... y'know, right? [He fumbles again] Oh God wait, your brother– when he had those red eyes he would also turn evil. Nonononono– I'll pay you, ok? Where's the waystone? It's here, it's here, it's here– I'll pay you, ok? I'll pay the 4,500- we're gonna–
Bagi: I'll be waiting.
Pac: No no, oh- just– Just let me walk, my God, I love walking– OH, WALKING IS SO GOOD – [Pac teleports] I'll pay her.
[Bagi follows him moments after]
Pac: [Pac mumbles to himself as he begins transferring money to Bagi] 4,500... I need to pay her 4,500...
The capricious pharaoh drives away his servants, while a delinquent soldier, who's never served in the palace, is sent to him to the mercy. The mistake with a hand fan could really cost Cross his life, but Shattered finds it so amusing that he spares him :'D

gale's reaction to the protag offering to sacrifice themselves by becoming a mindflayer
i wanted to share this scene because it's something that not everyone may have seen and because it's a truly wonderfully acted, animated and written scene, showing gale's empathy and selflessness. despite being scared, despite wanting to live, he makes the offer to reconsider using the orb so the protag needn't sacrifice their own life and soul.
you can get the scene by having the protag ask the emperor if by becoming an illithid, they would be able to control the netherstones and absorb orpheus's power.
gale will interrupt the conversation with:
Gale: This is not the kind of decision to make based solely on your own wisdom. We must discuss it - privately.
he will then have an exclamation mark over his head to initiate the full conversation.
