Leia? Or Rowen? Your choice!

Already answered for Leia, so Rowen it shall be!

Why they are the best: Because he’s just the best grandpa? His relationships with all the party members are super sweet (especially with Elize, oh goodness) and he’s all around just an absolutely wonderful character. He’s very goofy, silly, and yet he knows very much how to be serious and his past weighs heavily on him. He’s just…a great character.

Why they are the worst: He isn’t. Why would you even suggest that. My goodness.

a canon fact (that shouldn’t be): That NPC that talks about how he left a lantern at the inn in Sharilton in one of the fractured dimensions. Oh my heart could not handle that. Ugh.

a non-canon fact (that should be): That he and Chancellor Marcia have ‘diplomatic talks’ at cute little cafes at least twice a week. Elize actually attends some of them and it spurs her interest in politics. Rowen is very proud of her for it.

a piece of advice I would give them: I think it’s more that I would be going to him for advice rather than giving it.

Tales of the Abyss for the relationship thing?

My favorite parent-child relationship: Suzanne+Luke is really, really cute. I love some of the stuff we get to see in sub-events, but I’ll still wish that we could have seen more.

My favorite sibling relationship: Uh...Tear+Van is interesting. Not ‘cause they currently have a good relationship by any definition of the phrase, but because of what their relationship was in the past and how you can see that impact them throughout the course of the game.

My favorite family relationship (other): Luke+Natalia is great. In fact, they have some of my favorite interactions over the course of the story. The ways in which their personal developments inform and influence one another is very interesting and fun to watch.

My favorite friendship between two people: Anise+Jade as the snarky duo is lovely. I’ve also always had a suuuuuper soft spot for Ion+Luke.

My favorite friendship between a group: The main group of course! If we’re gonna break that down further, I’m not quite sure I could pin down the exact reason why, but I love the friendship between the ladies of the group. It’s very, very precious to me.

My favorite mentorship: The parallel (but contrasting) through-line of Tear+Lagretta and Luke+Van has always been interesting to me.

My favorite rivalry: I said the rivarly between the main group and the God Generals was my overall favorite for the whole series, so it’s also my favorite here!

My favorite hatred/antipathy: Arietta’s hatred for Anise is interesting.

My favorite potential relationship between characters who never talk in canon: I want Noelle to be friends with E-V-E-R-Y-O-N-E.

Tales: Rutee/Mary, Chat/Farah, Harold/Nanaly, Claire/Serena, Hilda/Militsa, Kohaku/Beryl Other: An/Mariko (.hack), Juniper/Athena (Ace Attorney), Maya/Franziska (Ace Attorney)

I know there’s more but my brain is totally blanking right now...

Top 10 video game songs, please.

Oooh, you pose a difficult question Lathy…I like a lot of different songs from video games so narrowing it down to just 10 is going to be close to impossible.

I think this list’ll end up being just 10 different songs from 10 different games that I like in no particular order. Also, I’m gonna exclude opening and closing themes ‘cause I feel that deserves to be another list all its own.

1. You Will Know Our Names (Xenoblade Chronices)2. Triverse Battle Theme (Tales of Innocence R)3. Deception (Eternal Poison)4. EXEC_with.METHOD_METAFALICA/. (Ar Tonelico 2)5. Beginning of Fall (Mana Khemia 2)6. Atelier Rorona (Well…from Atelier Rorona)7. The True Mirror ~Guitar Ver.~ (Baten Kaitos)8. Beneath the Hollow Moon (Bravely Default)9. The Edge of Green (Radiant Historia)10. Fall Theme (Harvest Moon 64)

For a lot of these I just went to some of my favorite overall soundtracks and picked one I liked. I also tried to shake up the style so it wasn’t all calm, relaxing orchestral pieces (as much as I adore calm, relaxing orchestral pieces).

But man oh man was it difficult to pick only 10.

Lathy replied to your post "Astronautiica replied to your post: [[MO I do not know How to feel ..."

Work stopped me from having fun online. I also wonder how everyone's doing and I keep thinking they're having a better life than me. I think we need something like Higurashi and find an anime to all watch and get us hyped to talk to each other.

Work is understandable and I can really see how that would’ve affected your online fun and I also agree with the later of that although it’d probably be super hard to have that happen again with everybody growing up as much as we all did. Hell, our youngest member is in college now and she was like in the 7th grade when we all were hanging out a lot

I remember really wanting that voice acting game when it was first announced. It's a shame I won't be able to play it because I'd love to cast Hikaru Midorikawa as everyone ever.

Haha, yes.It’ll be like Radiant Mythology 3 with both Leon and Judas, except times a million. Everyone will secretly be Leon.
