Jeremy Warminster (Relationships)

Jeremy and Adelais have a rough relationship that evolves and grows over time. It was Kitty who put in the most effort in the beginning, as Jeremy was rude and cold to her from the start (due to her noble status). He would refuse to respect her or be even slightly nice to her. Adelais would eventually give up and begin parroting his behavior instead, often resulting in the two breaking out into arguments the moment they were in a room together. The only thing keeping them from tearing each other apart was their business agreement, as Adelais had promised to pay the two knights for help with her research. They only worked together under the direst of circumstances, with peaceful and civil moments between them being a rarity.

At a particular spoilery part in the story, the two come to an agreement that it would be best to work on bettering their relationship. And while it was a very rocky & gradual improvement, the two eventually grew close and the hostile nature of their initial relationship all but disappeared. After that point, their bond resembles more of a kinship than anything, like a pair of bickering siblings. The two still have their squabbles, though they tend to be more silly and non-personal in nature. Their respect for one another is equal here.

Adelais often seeks comfort and advice from Jeremy, as he often has a different point of view and is able to see things in a more empathetic light. Jeremy also finds a lot of comfort around her, as well as a more logical and independent insight on things. They're just two little dorks who care for each other very much, and make sure to protect one another from any danger they may face.

Jeremy and Maria aren't neccessarily friends persay, but they aren't on the worst of terms either. They'll work together, often drafting any needed plans, but not without a snide remark from Jeremy and an eye roll from Maria. The two respect each other, but feel no need to speak to one another outside of work.

Jeremy and Norman first crossed paths when they were tweens attending primary school. Norman was a shy kid and easily intimidated by Jerm's prickly nature, whereas Jeremy simply wasn't interested in socializing. It wasn't until they both took the same extracurricular that they offically met. They shared a lot of interests and the same sense of humor- often making fun of their peers together. Jeremy was practically the only person who would listen to Norman's constant ranting, whereas Norman was the constructive voice Jeremy needed to hear. Because of this, they began dating pretty early on in their friendship.

When Rory left, Jeremy fell apart. Norman tried to comfort him, but was he himself was crumbling underneath the pressure of his family's expectations. They grew distant, often arguing whenever they talked. It didn't help that Norman was suspicious of Jeremy's new friend (Luke), which the other percieved as unwarranted jealousy and a lack of trust. This only spurred further arguments, eventually causing the couple to split.

They'd accidentally reunite two years later, when Jeremy became a knight. They decided to work things out (as to not make work awkward) and eventually became close friends again. Norman still has some lingering feelings for Jeremy, but hesitates to act on them in fear of losing him again. Jeremy, on the other hand, thinks it's best to keep their relationship platonic, though is unsure how he currently feels about him.

Surpisingly, Jeremy and Cordial are actually friends. They're not super close or anything, but they talk often and occasionally hang out outside of work.

Cordial was initially very intimidated by Jeremy. He's much taller and standoffish than anyone she was used to interacting with on a regular basis. But since they had Norman as a mutual friend, Cordial was able to have more substantial conversations with Jeremy than she probably would've on her own. Jeremy appreciates her tenacity and levelheaded nature, but feels like she should loosen up a bit. Cordial enjoys talking to Jeremy but is occasionally still unnerved when around him.

For the most part, Jeremy and Ishen really don't like each other. Jeremy finds them to be nosy and annoying, whereas Ishen finds him to be a rude stick in the mud. But when there's a common enemy or goal shared between the two, they can be quite the force to be reckoned with. Otherwise, they really only interact when forced to.

During his occasional visits to Burrosen, Jeremy overheard a lot about this so-called divine fortune-teller, but never officially met her until the events of the story. Despite his usual reservations about those of a higher status, Rane and Jeremy got along pretty much right away. The two share an appreciation for structure as well as a sense of humor, sometimes working together to pull pranks on their friends. Rane particularly likes messing with Jeremy, as it's extremely easy for her to get under his skin. Jeremy's disregard for authority figures equally annoys Rane, and an occasional argument is sparked from this. Otherwise, they enjoy each other's company and often have long conversations when they talk.

Rory was the closest thing to family that Jeremy ever had. In fact, if it weren't for the dragon finding him as an abandoned newborn, he likely wouldn't be alive today. He's always considered R'oulrynth his dad, even if he acted more like an older brother most of the time. Rory was the only constant in his childhood, always there to protect him and lend a listening ear. Jeremy took after his draconic guardian, from his distrustful nature to certain mannerisms & body language. R'oulrynth was the only person Jeremy trusted, and he loved his adoptive father dearly.

Rory cared for & loved Jeremy like a son, sacrificng his old life so his ward could have a chance at living more freely. Despite not having an inherit parental nature nor an expert on human child development, he tried his best to be a good role model and give Jeremy valuable lessons he could use later in life. After being entirely shut out from his draconic family, Rory picked up odd jobs to keep the two afloat. Despite the financial struggles, the two were a fairly happy little family.

But then Rory left. With no warning and seemingly no cause. For the first few weeks, Jeremy remained hopeful that he'd return, that he just left to run an errand. Then months passed, and Jeremy's hope quickly turned to grief, then rage. Rory's dissapearance has tormented Jeremy for years. He harbors resentment for the dragon for leaving, but can't help but feel fondly when certain memories cross his mind.

Despite being polar opposites, Luke loves Jeremy a lot! There's nothing Luke wouldn't do for him, including putting himself in grave danger. He tries to get Jeremy to be nicer and friendlier to others with very little success. The knight likes to spend as much time with him as he can, and the two are very rarely seen apart. Luke is fairly out of touch with his emotions and regards his feelings for Jeremy as just intense friendship and doesn't realize that he's actually in love with him until a few years later. But once he does realize this, it becomes very hard for him to conceal his true feelings, and the two start dating soon after. He loves his boyfriend with his whole heart and would stop at nothing to make sure he is happy and safe.Integer sollicitudin, lectus ac dignissim dapibus, orci odio varius sem, non gravida ligula orci et ex.
