Hard picking VIII, I guess its more of picking Squall over Cloud, I liked Squalls attitude more than Clouds a little bit.

"Are you done yet...? I don't want to talk about it. What am I supposed to say about other people's problems?" (Squall)
"I'm not asking you to say anything. I just want you to listen." (Quistis)
"Then go talk to a wall." (Squall)

Burn!
