Proof that [[Sturgeon's Law|the remaining 10% is worth entering the Lifestream for]] here:
 
These are recommendations made by [[Troper|Tropers]]s for ''[[Final Fantasy VII]]'', all of which have been signed. After a few samples, you will be able to judge whether you might be interested in the 'fic, based on who recommended it. ''No-name recommendations will be '''[[Zapped (wiki)]]'''.'' Nobody would back up the rec. Discussion of the recommendation is welcome on the discussion page. As such discussion is important, do remember to add the discussion page to the watchlist, if need be.
 
Do warn when a fanfic may head into [[Everyone Is Gay|homosexual]] or [[Better Than Canon|non-canon]] territory. Some people just don't like it, and as we all know, [[Shipping]] is [[Serious Business]].

''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/394020/1/The_Zors_Pizza_Chronicles The Zor's Pizza Chronicles]'' by Vile
* Recommended by Agent0042
* ''Synopsis'': The party reaches the Northern Cave only to discover that Meteor's threatening the Planet is all just due to a bad call-- Sephirothcall—Sephiroth wanted to order a "Meaty Zor" pizza from Zor's Pizzeria but they screwed up and sent him a Meteor instead. Now allies with Sephiroth, the group bands together to fight a new threat: a strange man named Bob who wants to close down Zor's Pizzeria.
* ''Comments'': An extremely comedic fanfic filled with pop-cultural gags and various bits of [[Lampshading]]. Highly entertaining. ''Definitely'' not canon.
 
Line 67:
* Recommended by Dolt Boy
* ''Synposis'': Sephiroth (pronounced Seephiroth) attempts to destroy the world and Cloud (pronounced Clood) gathers a bizarre party of [[Original Character|OCs]] ([[And Zoidberg|and Tifa]]) in order to stop him. [[Running Gag|And kill Mark.]]
* ''Comments'': One review puts it this way: "Revenge of the Fishglobe is not intelligent, nor sophisticated, nor cleverly crafted. But silly and stupid as it is, I have seldom laughed more in any given 5 minutes than when I was reading this fic." The author himself puts it this way: "If this story makes any sense to you, you need serious professional help." This is a [[Crack Fic]] of no particular quality ''per se'', save that its extreme and unabashed silliness will definitely appeal to some readers--thereaders—the more you value the ridiculous, the random, and the nonsensical in humor, the more you'll probably enjoy this.

Line 141:
* ''Pairings'': Sephiroth/Zack/Cloud. Yaoi.
* ''Synopsis'': It wasn't like Hojo had left clear instructions on how to reverse a sacrifice to the Gate. FMA crossover/fusion.
* ''Comments'': A series of dramatic one-shots centered entirely around the relationship of Sephiroth, Cloud and Zack, with a few other references to other FFVII characters. The interesting premise is a bit mitigated in that it's still in its beginning stages. The one-shots, however, are quite stand-alone -- enoughalone—enough so that it doesn't really matter. The interaction with Roy is gloriously in character -- Icharacter—I didn't expect him to be written half so well.

Line 149:
* Recommended by Ellipsis
* ''Pairings'': [[Yaoi Guys|Sephiroth/Cloud]] with the Zack/Aerith on the side
* ''Synopsis'': Cloud goes back in time to [[Set Right What Once Went Wrong]]--the—the best time travel fic in ''FFVII'' fandom, hands down.
* ''Comments'': Very haunting, with creative use of [[Fanon]] and [[Alternate Character Interpretation]]. Essentially, Cloud relives his life knowing the future, and works to save it by saving Sephiroth himself.
 
Line 191:
* ''Pairings'': Aerith/Sephiroth, Yuffie/Vincent, Cloud/Tifa, {{spoiler|Rufus/OC}}
* ''Synopsis'': 20 years after Meteor, the world is finally at peace and the heroes (and villains) of Final Fantasy VII are [[Babies Ever After|living out somewhat normal lives.]] However, all is not well with the Planet.
* ''Comments'': Obviously, this fic is non-canon *points at the first pairing*. Part [[Gen Fic]], part [[Shipping|Shipping Fic]], it takes the Aeriseph pairing and [[Deconstruction|examines it]], taking it to its [[Babies Ever After|logical conclusion.]] The fic attempts to look at what would really happen if you combined Jenova and the Cetra by giving us three cases to look at: [[Action Girl|Zephyr]], [[Reluctant Mad Scientist|Ciel]], and [[The Cutie|Faye]]. It starts off light and funny but [[Cerebus Syndrome|becomes gradually darker over time]], although it still employs some comedic elements. Aside from Aeriseph, it also looks at the children of the popular Yuffentine pairing, and throws in Cloud and Tifa's sons and Cid's son as a side character. {{spoiler|And Genesis. And Rufus.}} Despite having quite a few [[Original Character|OCs]], this fic is thankfully devoid of [[Mary Sue|Mary Sues]]s.
