Node ([Links]Relationships)

Hag

Profile


  Family

  Travis (Biological son) - Tenuous. Node can never make heads or tails of what Travis wants from him, other than realizing they're blood-related. He tolerates Travis. A LOT.
   In AUs they are still on tense terms, on Node's end, but usually have spent far more time together, and in a way, Node feels forced to trust him due to their blood relation.
  Joe (Biological brother) - Estranged. Joey was very antagonistic toward him when they spoke to one another, but it was in a playful way. Somehow. Node didn't mind leaving Joey behind.
  Gene (Biological brother) - Estranged. Node still remembers having to take care of Baby Eugenio and having a hard time with it. Sad to have been unable to say his goodbyes to his baby brother... He's over it now, of course.
  Johnny (First cousins) - Amicable. They used to get into a lot of trouble together, when Node was testing out his freedoms from his immediate family. Things can be tough between them regarding speaking about family and such. Every other subject can be a lot of fun.


  Romantic

  Roman (Friends with benefits) - On-and-off positive. Someone Node wishes he wasn't so jealous over. Even if it's not spoken, Node knows too well that Roman is going to keep him at arm's length. But when they're together, it's admittedly satisfying, domestic-like and some.
  Sorata (Husband) - Extremely positive, despite a few bumps here and there. The only person whom Node will bend over backwards for. Sorata oozes sex appeal and seems oblivious to his own charms. He's perfect for someone like Node, who can still find something aggravating in an angel in disguise. They fuss and make up a lot.
  Maverick (Complicated) (AU) - Positive, yet tense (probably on Node's end only). All of Node's history with Maverick makes this relationship difficult. Node feels entitled to Maverick 100%, and gets what he considers less than 10%. For all this brat's frustrating demeanors, Node is admittedly obsessed with him...
  Shin (Complicated) (AU) - Negative...? Shin can't be much more than a nice diversion, but at the same time, he sure knows how to get under Node's skin! Life was a lot easier when Node didn't have Shin around to play him like a fiddle. At the same time, their chemistry is something Node has never dealt with until now, and he can't say goodbye to it just because some little brat is trying to be a nuisance.


  Friendships

 Connor - Tenuous but fairly amicable. Connor can be annoying in a weird way. Node is never sure if Connor has got his eye on him regarding being on the wrong side of the law, or if he's just a little flirt. Node's not interested. Unless...?
  Sam - Push-pull veering into romantic intentions. Node knows Sam is using him as leverage over his father, who antagonizes him at work. He's not touching that can of worms with a ten-foot pole.
  Slick - Grateful and amicable. Node wouldn't have made it out like he wanted if Slick didn't cover for him that day. The Catholic side of him used to send a prayer Slick's way whenever he was in a mentally rough place to cope.
  Ryuzuo (AU) - Neutral. They understand one another, unfortunately. Ryuzuo is alright enough to stick around with in companionable silence.


  Enemies

  Francesca - Tense, almost like a rivalry. Node will never win against Francesca. They had wild times together, but when Node ran away, it was like a slap in the face to Francesca. Finding her alive and well and old in his new haunts was also like a slap in the face, for Node. Now they dig at one another and act quite petty if they cross paths.
  Bennett - Extremely tense and silently hostile. Node refuses to believe Ben is an actual good cop, especially being a paisan dedicated to staying in the mafia unit. Surely there's more to his beef with him than just feeling like he needs to nail Node to the wall and leave him for dead. Well, that's good enough reason for Node to steer clear of the bastard. And to be honest, Node is indeed quite afraid of what Ben is capable of...
  Annalise - Unspoken hatred and mild disgust. If Node never needs to speak to Ann, he'd be just fine. He doesn't want to get shoved into a true fatherly role and gain a nagging baby momma in the process-- not when Travis is fully grown and has had support all his life. Plus, Travis showed him a picture, and... To be frank, Ann was not his type, so it was like a double punch to see what sort of long-lasting effects wild partying does to someone. Thankfully, Ann seems to be on the same page as Node, and refuses to speak to him. Come to think of it, that bothers Node... Who does this old broad think she is, taking Node's genes and pushing him away?
  Jackie (AU) - Oh, Node hates this guy. What is he supposed to do when this piece of work barges in on Roman and him, having a nice date, and gives Node a black eye for his troubles? It pissed him off twice over to learn Roman can't get his 'business' together and is letting these two chumps meet one another on top of being humiliated for letting that piece of brainless meat wail on him. What the hell Node can do against a fucking pro like Jackie?
  Yoto - Hatred of the most tense degree. Having worked together on the low, Node had come to learn that Yoto is a transparent low-life slimeball. Now Node is left helpless in dealing with him, on account of his idiot son having gotten close to him. If there's anything Node hates, it's a man who seems to have no dignity.
