Hmm...I could see quite a lot of all of the Jobs fitting for your application in one way or another, though in the end the three I kept going back to the most were Soldier, Black Mage, and Dragoon. I think overall I might be leaning more towards a Soldier vote. Soldier characters such as the Warrior of Light, Firion, Cloud, Squall, Lightning, Basch, Beatrix, Cecil, Ramza, Luso, Marche, Yuri, Steiner, and Ingus tend to be very honest, inquisitive, and loyal in terms of their positive traits. There are also quite a few Soldiers who would perhaps have weaknesses such as being somewhat impatient, easily annoyed, or withdrawn at times too. Quite a few Soldier characters are also rather introverted too in their mindsets...and even many of the ones who aren't necessarily described that way would still need a pretty big degree of "me time" for their thought processes.

I think cheerful and gloomy sort of depends on many Soldier characters' moods as well: Sometimes I expect the worst and sometimes I just go with the flow and hope for the best. fits for several of them in the series to me (Cecil, Firion, Yuri, Ashe, Lightning, etc.). Many Soldier characters also prefer making informed decisions and there are several of them who perhaps have been described by others around them as being "standoffish" in certain instances. They tend to be rather calm in most circumstances, but can have moments of impatience when faced with a goal or something else they want to do (Lightning, Firion, Yuri, etc.). I'd probably have to quote your entire answer towards you picked the middle-ground between grudge-holding and forgiving because that entire small paragraph actually reminded me of quite a few Soldiers' mindsets in that regard. :)

Many Soldier characters do prefer working by themselves or simply doing their part in response to other members' actions in a group: though they will be more than willing to take over if they feel it is in their best interest or the group's interest. I could see quite a few of the Soldier characters probably facing the same dilemma you did when it came to the Spider-man decision (Laguna, Ramza, Luso, Steiner, Beatrix, Yuri, Zack, Tidus, Luneth, Ingus, Firion, Cloud, Basch, Cecil, etc.)...and probably many of them would decide to try and save the children ultimately, though they would feel horribly conflicted and guilty about not being able to save everyone. I could picture many of them perhaps wanting to let their friend vent and having the same reaction to the comforting a friend scenario too depending on how things played out with it. Quite a few Soldier characters are sticklers for organization and helping others (and can be strict when they feel they have to enforce rules at times)...so I could see several of them perhaps being interested in a career as a librarian for similar reasons as to the ones you gave. :)

I loved reading your answers to the FF-related questions, by the way! Yay for FFVIII, FFIX, and FF Tactics love...and I loved reading your favorite character list. Yuna's Nirvana has an absolutely gorgeous design...hehe, and yay for Chocobo Hot and Cold and FFIX's Cid love too! ♥ :D
