IMHO Eliwood and Lyn have no chemistry at all. :C The pairing's bored me to tears for as long as I've had the game. I can't see it developing past friendship no matter how hard I try, and I have tried just because there's so much of that and so little of Eliwood/anyone else (except for Hector but I don't like that one either.)

Lyn doesn't really pair up with anyone in my mind anymore--I was a big fan of Hector/Lyn for a while but that's gone by the wayside. Ninian's a good match for him, I think, and like you said I think it shows off his character better.

But Eliwood/Florina is still my OTP. Though if I remember correctly that would be considered a crack pairing. x3
