Final Fantasy forever

Growing up Tifa (FF7)…for sure. Beyond the obvious reasons, Tifa was grounded, modest, child-hood dreamer, could still respectfully kick your ass. – Aleaf Inwind
I probably should have figured out I was bi when in middle school, I had a crush on both Auron and Lulu from Final Fantasy X. – Governor_Explosion
Garnet from FF9 when I was 10. Not sure if it was a crush on her as much as it was hoping intensely that her and Zidane end up a couple. Crush by proxy? – Sennep
Aeris. Yes, I said “Aeris” in how she was called back in 1997. Mis translation or not, I prefer it much more. Had my car license plates named the same in high school. – Drunk Squirrel
Quistis. She’s got the teacher vibe. Attractive. Glasses. Tough as friggin nails- manning the machine gun shooting the hell out of the spider boss? Hell yeah. Huge crush on her formed. Then her insecurities start to show. She has such a great character arc through the game coming to terms with everything that happens. I remember fervently making saves at the all cutscenes she was in to be able to go back and talk to her and see her in HD CGI. – TaotaiseiFire
