Valit's Links
Due to Valit's short temper, any confrontation with Ares boils his blood. He doesn't like to see her, be around her, or anything. Secretly he likes her (because he has a habit of falling for the wrong people), but wouldn't let a soul know that.
Ares seems to enjoy irritating Val more than she enjoys irritating other people. Perhaps it's because she gets such a great reaction from him. Who knows how she really feels about him (or anyone, for that matter)
