Dara's Links
Understands very well why Ivory is as shy, and is as much of a shut in as she is, but also thinks that Ivory would benefit from opening up to the other members of their group more. However nothing good ever comes from forcing someone to do something they are uncomfortable with, so she is letting Ivory open up little by little even if it's a really, REALLY slow process.
Probably the person that she is the most open with out of the entire group she had brought together. She regards Dara as a safe space when around large groups of people. She never goes anywhere unless Dara is right there at her side. In this way, she thinks of Dara as the big sister that she never had in her previous complete isolation.
Overall thinks that Cylan despite his rather bloody past is a good person only trying to better himself and become someone who he never had the chance to be all that time ago. Won't stop her from delivering a swift punch to his gut from the off perverted comment or lousy joke at her expense.
Thinks of her as their "scary" and "fearless" leader playing off of the fact that her natural resting face looks as if she is about to murder someone despite that just being how she looks when she is idling. Tho he respects her, and sees her as his guiding spear foreword to changing from the person he once was. The person to show him that the grass really is greener on the otherside so to speak.
Dara, like most of the other members of the group, regard Tona as the shining beacon that is nearly impossible to be sad around. Dara thinks that Tona carries an energy with her that is so uplifting and inspirational, and in many ways would have preferred her to have been the true leader of their group as she thinks Tona fits that bill more then herself....
Tona has a very high respect for Dara, and thinks that she is an amazing leader despite what Dara truly thinks of herself. Everyone makes mistakes, Dara is no exception to that, and she tends to hang on those mistakes....Tona thinks that if Dara could just forgive herself for the things she has done wrong, and look ahead instead of looking back, that she could truly rise up and be a person that many can look to for guidance.
This is no doubt about it that Arby is likely the strongest one out of the entire group....While he is about the most stoic android, or just person in general that she has ever seen, he is also the most willing to toss himself out in front of a speeding truck to save one of his friend's lives....Not to say the other's in the group wouldn't do exactly that, it's just Arby would beat everyone to the punch....She is glad Arby is around as he alone has gotten everyone in their group out of a sticky situation more then once....Tho she wishes that he'd learn how to open a door instead of crash through it like the kool-aid man.

Dara thinks that Shanto has a very kind heart and soul, and that he is always striving to do the right thing and make everyone happy. That's something that she respects and likes about Shanto, tho she offend finds that Shanto is lacking a backbone so to speak, and he crumbles really easily under pressure. If anything, Dara thinks that Shanto needs to have more confidence in himself as he is stronger then he thinks he is.
Shanto thinks that Dara by far is the most qualified to be the leader out of everyone in the group. She has the leader mindset and the determination to go through with tough decisions when it's needed, and if that's not something to respect then he doesn't know what is. Tho he can find her to be rather...intimidating at times and down right scary at others.
She thinks that Shitaru is a pretty alright person, tho to be frank Dara hasn't exactly sat down to have a real chat with Shitaru as he seems to be more of a listener then a speaker at times, and Dara never was good at starting conversations. The only real thing that she knows about Shitaru is that he loves surfing, and that he is a skateborder to some degree, and that he tends to have a blackhole stomach....
Dara in Shitaru's eyes is someone worthy of all the respect she gets from her team, him included. While she certiantly has quite the gaze....In truth Dara is actually a pretty kind person, and someone that Shitaru vibes with on a personal level. Tho the fact that Dara has never been to a beach before baffles Shitaru. To him that is a crime against humanity.
Dara is perplexed on how Irie can do half the things she can, but at the same time there is no denying that her unique skill set is very useful to their group and their goals....Tho in her personal opinion Irie's pranks tend to cause more harm then good in some cases, and urges her to tone it down and not go to far with it.
She thinks that Dara is....Scary, but a super cool person! While her natrual resting face is enough to make Irie shy away from wanting to pull a prank on her, she still finds that Dara is the rock of this group, and that she is a very good leader.
