final fantasy cowboy anyone?
Okay, so my previous post about a Final Fantasy Cowboy AU, where Zack pops by Cloud's ranch and Cloud's still salty, really got some creative juices flowing! Especially with many of you wondering about 'Tifa Godwin' and how she'd fit into this wild Western reimagining of FFVII. It’s such an intriguing thought, and I’ve been mulling over it quite a bit. For me, Tifa Godwin in a cowboy setting isn’t just a ranch hand. Given her incredible strength, independence, and business acumen (hello, 7th Heaven!), I envision her as a force to be reckoned with. Picture this: instead of a bar in the slums, she runs the most popular general store or even a bustling saloon in the dusty frontier town nearest to Cloud's ranch. She'd be the backbone of the community, a strong, level-headed woman who knows how to handle herself, whether it's dealing with rowdy cowboys or negotiating fair prices for essential supplies. Her compassion would still be a core trait. I can see Tifa Godwin offering a warm meal and a place to rest for weary travelers, or perhaps even mediating disputes between rival ranchers, using her calm demeanor and sharp wit. Her iconic martial arts skills could translate beautifully into a bare-knuckle brawling champion, defending her establishment or the innocent from bandits who dare to cause trouble in her town. Imagine her in practical, yet distinctly Tifa-style, Western wear – sturdy boots, a durable vest, and perhaps a bandana that she expertly ties before stepping into a confrontation. And what about her relationship with Cloud and Zack? When Zack pops by Cloud's ranch and Cloud's still salty, Tifa Godwin would undoubtedly be the one to bring a sense of normalcy and grounding to their chaotic reunion. She might be the one to gently, or perhaps not so gently, remind them of their bond. Maybe she's the 'big sister' figure who gives them both a stern look and tells them to work things out over a glass of her homemade lemonade (or something stronger, depending on the establishment she runs!). Perhaps her place, let's call it 'Godwin's General Store & Grub,' becomes the unofficial meeting point, a neutral territory where even the most stubborn cowboys, like a certain spiky-haired ex-SOLDIER, can't help but feel a little more at ease. This Tifa Godwin wouldn't just be part of the Cowboy AU; she'd be an essential pillar, holding the community together and ensuring that even in the vast, untamed wilderness, there's always a place that feels like home. It's a fun way to explore her character's depth and how her unique qualities would shine through in a totally different universe. What are your ideas for Tifa Godwin's role?
