Strifentine Week ➤ July 7th thru 13th @strifentineweek.bsky.social · 21/07/2026

A heartfelt thank you to everyone who took part in this 2nd annual Strifentine event, whether through creation or engagement! The AO3 Collection is closed, and no further work will be reposted here. Strifentine Week returns July 7th thru 13th, 2027, with prompts revealed May 29th. See you then!

A graphic styled to look like a set of 7 Queen's Blood cards sitting face-down. In the center of the backside graphic, where it should say the name of the game, it instead says "Strifentine Week" in the same blackletter font, with the two applicable pairing names (vinkura and kuravin) written in much smaller text in Japanese between the two English words.

A graphic styled to look like a handful of Queen's Blood cards, with one flipped face-up; the card lacks text, instead showing a screenshot of Cloud and Vincent from Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth. Vincent stands in the foreground with his back more or less to the viewer, stance slightly pensive, staring out at Cloud, who stands at the precipice of the crater left when the Temple of the Ancients collapsed in on itself, staring out at a cloudy sky and the wooded mountains beyond, unaware of the attention.

The image on the card is a screenshot from Advent Children. Cloud lays splayed out on the ground, unconscious with his sword in hand; Vincent appears above him as a swirl of bright red, sweeping in to his rescue.

Image description: Graphic is styled to look like a card detail screen from Queen's Blood as they appear in Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth, in a modified art deco style. The prompts are in a single column on the right side in varying shades of gold, while the left side shows 3 screenshots of Cloud Strife and Vincent Valentine styled to look like Queen's Blood playing cards without text. The two back cards have images taken from Advent Children, with Vincent visible in one and Cloud sitting in the other, and the card in front is from Rebirth, with Cloud standing close to Vincent, looking at him over his shoulder. The screenshot has been edited so Cloud is casually holding on to Vincent's cloak.

Strifentine Week
Starting Valentine's Day

Image description: Cloud Strife and Vincent Valentine's hands, tentatively touching one another. Cloud's left hand extends from the upper left corner of the image, with his thumb gently resting against the hollow of Vincent's and his fingers resting against the base of his palm. Vincent's left hand, clad in the gauntlet, reaches up from the lower right corner of the image, thumb resting against the rounded space between Cloud's fingers and the hollow at the base of his thumb, Vincent's fingers extending down past Cloud's wrist due to the size difference between characters. The metal-clawed index finger of Vincent's gauntlet is fit close against the dull-spiked metal loop at Cloud's wrist, while his other fingers are curled delicately, almost around his wrist, in preparation to hold on. The image has been modified from a screenshot, using official models, and is overlayed above a flat brown recreation of the Queen's Blood insignia in FF7 Rebirth.
