Dumb suggestions/ideas that are more goofy than useful, food for thought: If you're still toying with the Dark Cave or invented scenarios, I think it would be very funny if the player returns to Hojo's lab, late game, and you have to fight a version of Aerith and Red XIII that are a bizarre romantic couple. Maybe they traveled from an alternate universe to stop the player from breaking them up.
Or fight a version of Barrett and Cloud that fell in love on the Gondola Ride. If Cloud and Barret are in the player's party, they start the battle with confusion status.
When you first go to Aerith's house, and you have to sneak out of her home at night, instead of going down the stairs you can walk into her room. She has a response already, but I think the humor of barging into her room at night could be heightened. Maybe if Cloud walks in he'll have dialogue, "I'm ready for my date." And Aerith gets pissed and you're sent back to the spare bedroom.
It's also strange to me that Cid, being a mechanic, never once expresses any interest or curiosity in the fact that Barrett has machinery grafted to his arm. You'd think he'd have some questions, maybe he'd want to put a propeller on him instead of a gun...I think that's an enemy you fight when you climb sector 7 tower.
It would be cool to have a scenario where you have to actually commandeer the Highwind with Barrett and whoever else when Tifa is in the Gas Chamber. Fight some battles along the deck and interior of the ship before making it to the bridge. Then a Boss, the Turks, guard scorpion, whatever...
It would also be cool if Marlene gets possessed and becomes a demonic child you have to beat up. Maybe, like many children, she pets Red XIII too hard, and blah blah blah, and then you fight her. Then the Guard Scorpion attacks you from nowhere...
Alternate reality where the female characters have to dress up as men to get into Dawn Cornelia's manor in Wal Market. Then you fight her pet Guard Scorpion or something...
A pandemic breaks out in the slums and Shinra puts everyone in quarantine. Battle your way to where the virus originated from: Hojo's Lab...
