Can't get this outta my head... [Spoilers]

With every bit of character development with Alphinaud, he sounds more and more like a certain someone in World War 2.

Sorry, I don't know what IRL character in WW2 you are recalling

SE already made that someone, and he's a very good character.

-puts up a wall-
Leave my baby alone D:

Also no Squeenix isn't allowed to do anything to one half of a twin set. We have CLAMP and JK Rowling as examples as to why this is a bad idea.

[Kurogaea]

Yeah, Alphinaud has been more a noble's son than some down-and-out artist with curb appeal. The /backhands were too far and few for my tastes...

Hitler, he started out a painter. But was laughed at for it and became a political leader. Alphinaud is practically doing the same thing.

Um, shouldn't this be in the Lore forum?

Not really. Alphinaud was a child prodigy from a high class family who apparently learned to draw to impress girls, which would have probably been when he was between 11 and 14.

Practically isn't the same. Further, one started as a down-and-out painter whereas Alphinaud hasn't know a single down-and-out day in his life till 2.5 where his silver-spoons-everywhere upbringing reared it's head for all to see. Again, one is so very not the other... and the nanny spared the rod way too much.
