Ray's Links
From the start wanted to be Strider's friend as Ray was new to the village but ended up leaving a bad impression. Ray's loneliness fueled their persistence to become his friend. Tried to make up their first impression to Strider multiple times but with Strider's stubborn and blunt attitude, it was difficult but with the help of a certain event, they would end up becoming close friends. Thinks Strider is silly and teases him from time to time but appreciates him and treasures their friendship greatly. Oblivious to Strider's feelings towards them.
Their first meeting was rocky as Ray left a bad impression on Strider, causing him to be less than friendly with them. Though, with the combination of Ray's persistence and certain events would cause the both of them to become surprisingly close. Strider even developed a serious crush on Ray. They ended up forming a team together after some thought and Ray ended up becoming the team leader due to them first suggesting the idea. Strider still questions if this was the right choice as Ray... can be a little reckless at times. Due to this habit of theirs, he acts as voice of reason and worries about them constantly during missions or traveling.
Thinks Reese is super cool and admires his strength but is still slightly intimidated by him due to his quiet personality and size difference. They still wanted to welcome him as a member of their team which Reese neither agrees nor objects to.
Unofficially officially apart of Team Silver (more like Team Silver + Reese) after his accidental encounter with them. Didn't mean to stick around for long but he already felt attached to Ray and Strider, though he would never admit this. Acts as a mentor to the both of them. Ray's loud and careless nature can be off-putting though.
