You reaction?

I like the twins and would prefer not to see either of them die.

I don't know why everyone hates Alphinaud so much. At least he keeps improving, or tries to, and we're able to see him do it (including his mistakes). I find him more relatable than Alisaie, who basically was an asshole towards us at the start of ARR, then progressed a bit during Coil, and suddendly re-appeared like we know her today after wandering who-knows-where. Meanwhile Alphy has been there with us for a very long time, and we with him, on the good and the bad. Like Ren said, he gives me that little brother feeling, especially after HW (no wonder that Estinien felt that way too).

All in all, I would be sad if either of them died. After all, I know these kids since we travelled together to Ul'dah at the start of ARR. But I would feel the loss of Alphinaud more because of all the time and experiences shared with him.

Alphinaud:



Alisaie:

I'd be pleasantly surprised. Not because I necessarily want either of them to die but it would most definitely raise the stakes and make whatever killed them seem like a legitimate threat.

I prefer Alphinaud over Alisae since we see the former grow and evolve for ourselves. He makes mistakes and overcomes them. Alisae just makes snarky quips and earns cheap points as a result. Most of her development occurred off-screen.

Am I the only one in this community who adores Alphinaud? I see a lot of hate for him on these forums

Yea I don't get the hate for him really.

[Pakonitan]

I'd probably be pretty mad. I used to have practically no emotional connection to any character or anything when I first began, but nowadays I'm just like " I'm going to open up all seven hells upon whomever just did that..." XD The whole of Stormblood I was in revenge mode...XD

[Heliantheae]

I'd be mad. I'm like their older sister.

[DarkSlayerGrimm]

Good Riddance if either of them kick the bucket

Hate aside its hard to take them more seriously because they are kids I mean c'mon you can take Lalafells more serious then these 2 (Badass known as Pippin anyone?). If they were older or we had some kind of timeskip then it wouldnt be as bad, I mean if Alisaie was a Wise cracking Red Mage Female Equivalent of Estinien I would be in awe rather then little miss snarky comments I'd probably take the story with them more serious.

[Rymm]

would probably be going "great, now I can finally tell them apart".

Alphy is still wearing navy and white, Alisaie traded in her Wonder Twin jumpsuit for the ugly beige coat and hotpants. Hope that helps. ^_^

On topic, I would be bummed if either of them died. I like them both and have definitely enjoyed watching them interact with eachother in SB. They give me the 'little sibling for my character' vibe as well. If SE does decide to bump them off, I hope they do a good job of telling the story. As bad as it would be to see them go, it would be worse if they were just thrown away on some pointless quest.

I'm hoping it does eventually happen with Alphinaud. Out of the entire cast, save for Minfilia, he's easily the most irritating character I've met thusfar.
We got a taste of what running around with Alisae is like without Alphinaud anywhere in sight, and I want more of it. If only way back in the 2.0 MSQ during the search for Cid, it was Alisae that walked into that church instead of Alphinaud.
