Cos it makes sence and Al Cid is a good guy really, he can just come off as a bit cliche.
lol
Ashe could probably take him down a few pegs and he could probably get her to loosen up a bit, she seemed to have a nice time when she talks about her (SPOILER)
so why not.

Al-Cid is a douche.

I still think it'll be Ashe and Basch if they're going to make another sequel (maybe in PS3, who knows?) after seeing how close they were in RW.

Al-Cid is most most certainly a douche where women are concerned, but he's a canny politician and a pragmatic, peace-oriented ruler. If he just acted a bit more like a gentleman and less like a sleaze, he'd be a better guy - and I reckon Ashe could have him whipped pretty quickly

yeah i agree, she'd soon have him under control.
But it does seem that Ashe and Basch are pretty close with each other. not Fran and Balthier close, or even Vaan and Penelo Close, but still pretty tight.

Man I gotta get Revenant Wings when it comes out. My DS needs repair though

I don't know about Ashe and Al-Cid. He comes off as a womanizer, as self-centered and possibly a polygamist (sp?) with his illustration in the credits. I see Ashe as too strong a woman to fall for some douche like that.

yeah thats the thing that bugs me about Al Cid, but hes young, maybe he could grow out of it. I prefer Ashe/Basch tho,
BUt who says Ashe even needs to be paired up. I like her when she's being her independant self, pairing her up might wreck that part of her personality.
You sorta feel that Penelo and Fran already have feelings for their partners and so like it makes u want them to get with them.

For those curious about Ashe and Basch's relationship in Revenant Wings, here is the Japanese trailer:

YouTube - Final Fantasy XII: Revenant Wings (Gameplay Trailer 7)

It seems SE is hinting at them in the trailer. And I found this screenshot, don't look if you haven't finished FFXII!

SPOILER WARNING!!!

Just "friends"? Just "knight-queen" ? You decide.

If this is too spoilery, let me know and I'll edit the attached img to a URL link instead.
