Vesta's Links
Vesta considers Lizzy a close friend and often invites her on ventures. They do not get to spend a lot of time together due to packed schedules, but always make it a point to spend holidays/vacations together. They will be intimate with each other on occasion, but Vesta does not take it as seriously as Lizzy as she is in an open relationship and will often sleep around with courtesans. She wishes Lizzy would be more open about her feelings and stop being so nervous.
Lizzy is utterly besotted with Vesta and has been ever since they were school mates, often following her around or trying to get closer to her through their joint friendship with Reon. It wasn’t until a teenage sleepover that Lizzy came to the realisation that her childhood adoration had developed into a full-blown crush. She admires Vesta’s confidence and regal nature, often wishing that she could be as charming and beautiful as her friend. On the other hand, she can find that Vesta’s confidence sometimes overshoots into cockiness which can make her feel uncomfortable, especially in social/public situations. While she knows Vesta isn’t interested in settling down any time soon (if ever, and if ever with her), Lizzy is always anxious about the prospect of revealing any part of their relationship to her father, and by extension, to the rest of the world.
Reon is Vesta's right hand man and confidant. She respects him a great deal and trusts him more than anyone else she knows. He has also been valuable guiding her as a young leader, as she is able to bounce her thoughts off of him for a second opinion. The two are intimate together, even if their role responsibilities keep them busy more often than not.
Reon and Vesta first became friends in school, the two understandably being drawn together considering their similar circumstances – both were orphaned children expected to take on the role of monarch from the very moment they emerged into the world. In Vesta Reon found a kindred soul and would often seek her out to talk and bond over their experiences. This meant the two became very close and even started an intimate relationship in secret, something the usually conventional & proper Reon would never even consider. Reon enjoys spending time blowing off steam and being a normal twenty-something with Vesta, valuing the ability to be around someone who doesn’t judge him or expect him to be flawless all the time. He does worry about Vesta’s stubborn tendencies and her somewhat blasé attitude towards relationships and sex, which he feels could end up hurting her in the long run.
