like a star, like a firefly

Yeah, and that's why I don't think it's necessarily a bad thing that Raph isn't as complex as some other characters. With all the angst and traumatic pasts that abound in the cast, this game does need characters like him to give some light relief.

If I ever do another AM run, I've been thinking of recruiting Hilda on it, so I'll keep that support in mind if I get around to that -- which won't be for a long time, mind you, as I'm planning on doing SS and a second round of CF after this current run and who knows when I might get sidetracked by some other hyperfixation!

Hey, Ferdie could've had more than one mlm ending! I'd be interested in seeing that list if you do write it up, because there's a decent handful of supports without paired endings that I think should've had them! (Lorenz/Ferdie, Ingrid/Mercedes, Linny with more dudes... Flayn/Manuela and Alois&Bernie do have A-ranks and that makes it all the more egregious they don't have the paired endings they deserve...)
