>> One thing that really struck me, especially in the Remake, is that Aerith loves the Slums, and she literally says that going out into a world bursting with life would be "too much." <<
That really sounds like an introvert / extrovert split, with Ebb being introverted and Flow being extroverted. Except that opposites attract, so each would tend to seek out the other.
Maybe it's not a "visible" mark at all. Maybe it's more of a feeling. I mean, she's got to be picking up something there.
>> I wonder just how much of her Cetra side she really feels connected with, at this point.<<
Probably not much. But then maybe she wishes that she had more.
>> I wonder how many of their traditions she would end up embracing and how much she'd think aren't needed anymore.<<
Depends on how much the world has changed, and how. Customs relating to things that are still there, or where a similar thing has arisen, are probably still relevant. But others are pointless, like "Don't do X on Holiday That Nobody Celebrates Anymore."
