In the JRPG Tales of the Abyss, your characters are very reactive; they make quips during the battles, comment on what you do, and depending on who strikes the final blow/does the most damage, will pose and boast at the end of each battle. Depending on your combination of characters, you get different banter. My favorite post battle banter involves the Arrogant Noble Protagonist, the Cold Military Strategist, and the Cute Little Girl With Enormous Power. It goes:
Noble: Our weapons are status...
Strategist: ...scheming...
Little Girl: ...playing dirty!
And they all sound so PROUD of it! But, apparently, if the Best Friend is the fourth character, he has something else to add, in this resigned voice:
Best Friend: ...that's /awful/.
It really kind of cements his role as the only sane one in the nuthouse. (The two experienced characters, Jade (the strategist) and Tear (the woman with the mysterious past and motives) make a good run at being Dad and Mom, but Jade really enjoys fucking with people too much, and Tear's a sucker for anything cute.) This leaves Guy (the best friend), whose only real flaw so far is his terror of women.
