Artist's Commentary
My first attempt at drawing Cait Sith, and in a somewhat different style of CG than I usually do... I'm not sure why on earth I got inspired to draw Cait Sith, considering the thought came while I was listening to Smashing Pumpkins. (I'd have thought that would be more likely to inspire a picture of say, Vincent, or perhaps Sephiroth...)
At first it was just Cait cheering in victory, but I didn't want to put just a plain background, so I searched through Chiba's FFVII script for an interesting line of dialogue from my favorite little fairy cat, and came across "Want me to read your fortune!? A bright future! A happy future!" Naturally, the final scene of FFVII's ending came to mind - Midgar returned to a natural paradise. Upon seeing this picture, one person commented that Reeve would probably be the one to rebuild Midgar someday, which I'd never really considered before... which lends this picture a bit of a twist.
