Zora was welcomed into Ms Rivera's diner with open arms, and Zora is forever greatful that she has someone to rely on like her boss. Zora loves how loving and mother-like Ms Rivera is, especially after her own mother and father were so cruel to her. She views Ms Rivera not only as a close friend, but as a mother figure.
Ms Rivera views Zora like one of her own - she sees so much potential in Zora, and deep inside she sees the same burning passion and love for cooking that she had when she first opened her diner. As such, Ms Rivera is eager to help Zora come out of her shell. She guides Zora through her young adult years and on her career to becoming a chef, practically having adopted Zora as her own daughter.
Zora didn't know how to feel about Alistaire at first. Who is this sassy lost twink trying to sneak into the diner? After a while, though, Poppy and Alistaire started to bond, and Zora started to see Alistaire more. As such, the two started a bond. She and Alistaire are very different personality and hobby-wise, but they get along fine regardless. Having a cat certainly helps. Eventually, she sees Alistaire as a member of her family.
Alistaire's first impression of Zora was probably "oh, shit, I didn't know the shy one hanging around the back of the diner was strong enough to grab me by the cape and throw me out the door fifteen yards". Since then, he has had the privilege of being unceremoniously removed by Zora dozens more times. Their relationship is really blossoming.
Anyway, he likes her. Anyone good enough for Poppy is good enough for him. And her cooking is to die for.
Zora likes Sal! He might have a lot of creepy taxidermy in his house, but he's pretty cool. She thinks he's a little too wild, but often times they get along.
