Ok I haven't posted yet but I thought this was important since I'm apparently a genetic mutation. My mother has dark brown eyes and my dad has blue. Now, I have my father's eyes (and I mean completely, with no hint of brown). So obviously you don't have to have two dominant genes to result in dark brown eyes, which I guess would make it possible for Quistis or Selphie or whoever to be Squall and Rinoa's offspring. Wait... What am I saying?!?Originally Posted by Xaven
Don't you remember me explaining how it is an impossibility for any main character to be a child of Rinoa? *sigh* If you're going to tear this game apart looking for evidence of your theories, then I shall do the same to prove my views.The hair genetics certainly dun apply here.
Okay, let me show you AGAIN.
I'm not going to touch anything on the hair genetics as I am not as familiar with it verses eye color traits.
Rinoa = B,B (Dark brown on the verge of black)
Squall = b,b (Blue)
Child = B,b; B,b; B,b; B,b (A moderate, light brown)
Brown (B) is the dominant trait over blue (b). Any possible combination of genes from Rinoa and Squall (or any other male for that matter) would result in the offspring having at least one Brown gene and thus, a shade of brown eyes. None of the main characters have brown eyes.
The reverse also holds true. Rinoa can not be the offspring of any of the main characters. No one else has even a single Brown gene (You witnessed this yourself.) and Rinoa has two!
Also, Selphie can not be the child of Quistis and Zell as neither of them have even one Semi-dominant (U) gene. However, Seifer has a U gene, so Selphie could be the child of Edea and Seifer, but that would require you changing your theory... again.
We already covered this and you just blew it off last time.
Anyway, I'm not saying I believe a word of Future Esthar's theories and I don't even remember how the eye thing came up. And yes I read the entire thread.. But I still can't understand the once far-fetched and now random theories from FE. Like everyone else has said, they just aren't consistent with the game. Not with the script, not with the graphical instances. Not to mention Future's lack of consistency in his own ideas (which probably come from having wayyyy too many). Sorry dude, another tally in opposition.
And anyway, I don't see how genetics in our world would apply in the game, seeing as people can have red eyes and such... not to mention sorceress' appearance can change (look at Edea or Adel). Trying to prove this is like trying to explain how magic would work. Or time compression. Or how in the hell Squall's hair can stay like that.
But I'm wondering... Why are you guys still even trying to disprove all these inconsistent theories? Any "normal" person that reads the thread can see the bogusness of all this. I admire Unknowns for trying though. But I'm guessing at this point you guys are just doing this for fun, otherwise you'd have quit after the first page!! Unless you have some internal masochistic need to torture yourselves.
To Future Esthar (meant in the sincerest way): Do you really have nothing better to do? You're creative enough, why don't you write fiction stories? Just don't call them theories. Please.
