    Marona, how has she not been mentioned yet. You people need to play Phantom Brave. And Castille from the same game.
    Rom from Neptunia. One of my favorite scenes from the entire series is the one where she glues together all her picture books to make a giant picture book for Blanc to read to her.

    And hey, you make me come across as some scary dude that doesn't want kids I just mean, how can I be nurturing toward something that is not a kid, but just an idealized vision created by someone who probably never had to deal with toddlers? I mean, I love kids, but having had a brother eight years my junior can really make you a bit jaded in that regard. I still can't wait to be a daddy anyway!
    Of course you'll be a great dad; that goes without saying. And with video games, I'll just experience the idealism until me and Mr. Carny get hit full in the face of parentdom.

    Fiction, especially video games, are all about escapism. That would include children being"idealized" from monstrous little terrors to adorably precocious and innocent angels.

    Still, kids in real life are adorable while being little nightmares. To me, fiction is about being compelled by it, which is a form of escapism, but not all escapism is just mindless idyllic fantasy. I like realism in my escapism

    Definitely Sweet Pea. She's great in season 2 as well though.

    Yeah, though I wouldn't really call her 'nice' in that one.

    At least not when I play her
