    Sad News
    I am aware that this post goes against so many rules, and for that I'm sorry. However, it is important that everyone knows.

    A member of the FFVII fandom and an ardent lover of fanfiction, Midnight Blue-Sea of Stars, passed away on April 5th of this year. He was known in the fandom for his positivity and love for writing reviews, and I know many of the writers on here who have posted on FFn in the past 5 years have gotten comments from him. He loved debating FFVII and was a beloved member of the GA. He wrote stories, edited stories, RPed, shared his love for this fandom in every way he could. He loved Zack Fair and could spend hours talking about all of the stories he wanted to write, all of the ideas he had, and all of the stories he loved. He would spend hours theorizing about WiPs for his favorite ship (Clack) and the random cracky things that came out of this fandom.

    Midnight was killed after a reckless driver ran a stop sign and crashed into Midnight's car, with Midnight and his little sister in the car. His little sister and the driver of the other vehicle survived, but Midnight passed away due to his injuries.

    This news has only come to light last night, since many of us in fandom try and keep their private and public lives separate. However, it is important that we all remember Midnight for being a shining star in this fandom. His love and dedication will not be forgotten.

    We are currently working with the funeral directors and will be contacting Midnight's family to do something in their son's honor. We aren't quite sure what we plan on doing (we have received ideas ranging from a scholarship to a special memorial plaque) but if anyone is interested, I will have more information available on my Livejournal.

    I'm sorry to bring such terrible news, but Midnight was one of my friends. We met through fanfiction and Clack and I know he would love to know that this fandom would remember him after he had gone.

    Remember Midnight.

    Midnight
