1* ''Any'' of Golbez's interactions with the revived Elemental Archfiends doubles as this and {{Tear Jerker}}s due to heavy dosages of SugarWiki/{{WAFF}} and AlasPoorVillain.
2** Scarmiglione:
3-->'''Scarmiglione''' (''after the battle''): "I... thank you... I... am one of the spiritsss... of the land... Master Golbez... I was hideous... and yet... You came for me... You alone..."\
4(''Scarmiglione fades away; the party exchanges words'')\
5'''Golbez''' (''inner monologue''): ("To the earth with you once more... and may it be a more peaceful slumber this time.")
6** Barbariccia:
7--> '''Barbariccia''': "Master... Golbez!"\
8'''Golbez''': "Return to your eternal slumber, Barbariccia..."\
9'''Barbariccia''': "I am overjoyed... to see you again..."\
10(''Barbariccia fades away; and the party exchanges words'')\
11'''Golbez''' (''inner monologue''): ("Barbariccia... forgive me.")
12* Leviathan is in ''tears'' when (if) you rescue him; telling Rydia that he loves her and Asura more than anything in the world.
13* If you rescue [[spoiler:Leviathan and Asura, they very tearfully tell Rydia how sorry they are for trying to distance themselves from her and how much they love her.]] If you don't, [[spoiler:they surprise Rydia with their visit and reveal that they survived their encounter and were freed by the defeat of the FinalBoss, and that every Eidolon is safely at Feymarch.]] Then, [[spoiler:Rydia introduces young Cuore, last of the Maenads who she adopted, to Leviathan and Asura as her parents. They've come to visit Mist, a big jump from their previous isolationist stance.]]
14** Edge then comes over, stumbling into [[spoiler:Asura telling Rydia how Edge is the one who suggested that they should visit her. Cuore then asks him to play with her, which Edge obliges.]] The IOS version's credits makes this even more adorable by showing [[spoiler:Cuore sitting on Edge's shoulders while Rydia smiles from behind.]]
15* Cecil comforting [[spoiler:his own dark side]], after 17 years of [[spoiler:rejecting him in favor of the light of a Paladin]].
16-->'''[[spoiler:Dark Knight]]:''' Ridiculous... How could ''you'' [[spoiler:be Cecil]]?! What... [[BetaTestBaddie what does that make me, then!?]]\
17'''Cecil:''' You are [[spoiler:myself]]. That is true. [[spoiler:the part of myself]] that has shut itself from the world, once upon a time.\
18'''[[spoiler:Dark Knight]]:''' I... I...!\
