Midgar ------ Talking to Aeris the first time, no matter what you say (believe it or not), has no effect. Buy the flower, unless you want to date Aeris or Yuffie.

(-2 Aeris) When Tifa asks you about war: "Yeah..." (+2 Tifa) "I don't know" (-2 Tifa) Costa Del Sol ------------- I'm *very* disappointed with Costa Del Sol; there are a lot of dialogue options that you could choose, but none of them seem to alter 'Affection' values at all; even the ones that seem to *really* annoy the girls. Mt Corel -------- Stealing the Phoenix Downs from the Cokatolis nest does nothing to alter 'Affection' values. Neither does finding it but leaving it alone, for that matter. And no, it doesn't even matter who is in your party at the time. Another wasted opportunity, in my opinion.
