HW is the only time I've liked Alphinaud. I couldn't stand him in ARR and he's just kind of been there ever since. Unlike Estinien, I don't believe we have enough realists, certainly not among those surrounding the WoL.

It's unfortunate he's Yoshi-P's favorite because I'd really like an extended break from him. I don't even know that 'fixing' him would help, I'm just tired of him at this point.
