That's an interesting point about Ephraim...I actually thought his interaction with L'Arachel was amusing and somewhat cute, and I did like the scene in chapter 19Eph where Tana was able to pull him out of a heroic BSOD. (I wish their interaction overall had been more like that...the Eph/Tana supports felt so out of character for Tana. Her other supports and the rest of the game paint her as a fairly reasonable girl with a stubborn streak, but the Ephraim supports pushed that aside for "ZOMG EPHRAIM PAY ATTENTION TO MEEEEE" and Ephraim being "ffs go away and let me bitch about Innes some more").
But considering how hard he tried to keep up the calm, badass warrior persona, I'd be surprised if he DIDN'T turn out a little messed up after the whole thing. Especially considering how much darker his scenes with Lyon were compared to all the Lyon/Eirika scenes. :/
