is cloud strife stealing valor

Cid held on to the handicapped parking pass after Cloud's time in the wheelchair so he parks the Highwind wherever he wants. It's ethically questionable but there doesn't seem to be a lot of other airship traffic or competition for parking spaces so it's a moot point

i can't imagine shinra vets get any benefits, and also cloud is a veteran so if he did that's still not stolen valor. the real tricky part of this is the claim of being a soldier first class, which wasn't true but he DID kinda fuse with one and also he very much killed sephiroth that one time

is it identity fraud if you genuinely have part of that guys brain in your brain? also i'm not actually sure he did, iirc he was claiming to be cloud strife the whole time

is looking really cute in a dress stealing valor?

nah, they're different. kafka isn't that good a villain anyways, sephiroth is better because he's lame as hell
