( ๑>ᴗ<๑ ) Can we show some love for Lyse, the best Scion...!! ฅ^•ﻌ•^ฅ~~

Ah yes, a glitter emoji thread about the least divisive character in the game.

We all love lyse’s top-notch character development (second only to the greatest villain in ff history, Zenos), and op is not a troll.

Lyse and Zenos being mentioned in the same sentence reminds me of those theories that used to run around that she'd end up being Zenos. At least if they'd done that, they'd have wrapped up two mistakes into one.

Eeh... I don't agree Zenos is terribly written.

He's motivated by boredom which can be a hard motivation to actually connect to but that's probably why he's paired off with villains whose motives are more complex (Yotsuyu in Stormblood and next up it loos like it will be Fandaniel).

I'm not sure I'd call him terribly written, either, in the sense that I wouldn't blame the person writing him. I'm sure they're doing the best they can with the material they have. However, his presence past Stormblood feels forced, and while I get what they're trying to do with him, I just don't care for it (or him.) I'm just eager to move past him. Hopefully Fandaniel will overtake him and we can move onto something more gripping than either of them.
