Holly Explains FFVII to Jack, Part 2

Here is the next part of the loooong discussion between myself and the excellent Holly Boson (@fireh9lly) in which Holly explains Final Fantasy VII to me, a total novice, in pitiless detail.  This episodes moves on from preparatory context to the basics of the game and its history, Holly's textual approach to the game, and such subjects as Cloud Strife, fandom, shipping, etc.  Content warnings apply because some potentially troubling issues are mentioned.
