I actually find it really funny that Thunder has tried for YEARS to get Lady Grey to marry him, just for her to near immediately go for the Hero of Oakvale as a romantic prospect, who he does NOT like. Class A hater behavior.
Something I feel isn’t discussed enough re: Thunder and Whisper, mainly because I think we all take it for granted, is that they aren’t from Albion. We know they’re from "The South Islands”, possibly Aurora, possibly someplace that isn’t explained in later games (my personal belief), but the point is that they aren’t from there. They’re only in Albion because Thunder was able to save the both of them, the implication being that, if their parents weren’t dead already, they died in the shipwreck. Thunder can’t have been too old at the time -- There seems to be an age gap between the two of them, but it stands to reason he might have been a teenager. So you have these two people, these two kids, alone in a foreign country. We know, from Lucrezia’s presence (though I suspect she comes from Samarkand, not the South Islands) that there’s a taste in Albion for what they consider to be “exotic”, but that doesn’t translate into respect or care. We don’t know when they got to the Guild of Heroes -- it might have been just afterwards, with the Guild becoming aware of their actions during the shipwreck, it might have been after.
Of COURSE Thunder took to being a Hero. It got him respect, it got him *belonging*, it got him status. Of COURSE he pressures his sister into being the best Hero she can be -- in his mind, being a Hero is what got them everything they have, every ounce of stability. It’s all he’s really known for years, it’s what he lives for. It doesn’t mean that it’s right, especially given that it comes at the expense of the Hero of Oakvale, who’s a traumatized child, but he isn’t the only traumatized child in the Guild at the time. Of course Whisper would be competitive, because she has to be. The Hero of Oakvale *is* from Albion, he blends in, he is accepted as One of Them in ways that Thunder and Whisper never will be. It isn’t an option for her to sit by and take second place when she has to justify her place in society in a way that the Hero of Oakvale doesn’t. Of course Thunder resents the Hero of Oakvale for the arena and then taking Lady Grey -- regardless of whether or not he does love her in canon (I think that the writers, honestly, just fell into a lot of unfortunate stereotypes about black men and white women), she is also a *lady*. She’s beautiful, yes, but she also represents a level of nobility, privilege, and status that Thunder, as a foreigner, can’t achieve. Marrying her wouldn’t just be marrying Elvira Grey, Mayor of Bowerstone, it would be marrying his way into society. And then that’s taken away from him. By the Hero of Oakvale, who is, once again, a native citizen of Albion. If he’s lost Whisper as well, that’s everything. He’s lost his prestige, he’s lost his chance to integrate into Albion society, he’s lost his little sister who is the only thing that he brought to Albion with him. Of course he’s broken. Of course he’s bitter.
And obviously, this is built on a lot of headcanons and speculations, I’m not claiming this is canon when we get so little of these two in canon, but it at least helps to explain *why* the two of them are like that -- they’re playing by totally different rules than the Hero.

Thinking about how Whisper is so determined to prove herself to her brother and one up you she is literally willing to ruin her reputation. You're her biggest rival literally because one time you beat her while sparring in front of her brother. Thunder is the most important person in her life, and she just wants his approval which he continously refuses to give her. It doesn't matter how bad it makes her look. Like if you choose to protect the greatwood orchard, she'll go against it just because she sees you took it. She literally says that.
Whisper leaving Albion, away from Thunder who barely acknowledges her after she begins training. Away from you who is not only her friend, but her main rival, and biggest reminder of her mistakes, is really the best decision she could have made. And its really the only one we see her mke for herself.
Okay, but I wish that they had done SOMETHING with Thunder's reaction to the “Investigating the Mayor” sidequest, because.....
come on.....
