Kiriku remembers hearing Ayako's voice speaking to him when he was sealed away inside the tree, so he feels a sense of comfort around her. He appreciates her having kept him company when he was sealed and for helping him learn new things after he finally emerged from the tree.
Ash only knows Hollis as Sawyer's boyfriend, whether that fact is true or not. He doesn't even remember his name, but knows if the guy ever ended up in his chair, it be a pain.
However, after saving Hollis from being mugged one night, he is genuinely concern for the guy. He probably will ask anytime Sawyer drops in now, how he's doing, since last time he saw him.. he still was recovering from a busted face.
After being humiliated by nearly fainting during his forced-by-blackmail nipple piercing at the tattoo shop Ash works at, Hollis then felt humiliated in front of Ash again when Ash saved him from being mugged. Now Hollis is more grateful than embarassed, but he'd be fine not having to see Ash again since that means he would find himself at the tattoo shop again for a reason.
Ash was intimidated by Sawyer when he was a fresh tattoo artist. Barely had any tattoos of his own.
Now Sawyer is one of his favorite clients, his tip always means a celebration later.
Ash is Sawyer's go-to tattoo artist. Ash is the one who did all of Sawyer's tattoo work. Sawyer will occasionally go back for touch-ups. Always leaves a lavish tip.
Crispin likes having someone to banter with and secretly does research a bunch of candies to call Candy.
Candy enjoys the friendly and teasing banter between him and Crispin and likes to see what type of candy Crispin decides to call him that day.
Lucius' lets Kanae take his blood for ingredients. But he genuinely likes talking with Kanae about medicine and patients. He hardly gets that interaction elsewhere.
Especially about the unruly patients they both tend to get. Its nice to talk to someone that isn't an assassin every now and then.
Kanae enjoys discussing mutual and interesting patients when he does meet with Lucius, which isn't very often. When he does, it's usually for the absolute pleasure of drawing some of Lucius' precious blood to keep as an ingredient for some of his recipes.
Ash didn't think he be mentoring anyone anytime soon, yet found himself teaching Kai after the owner ditch him on him.. (owner had emergency) Ash was very nervous at first around Kai, though his demeanor didn't show it. Now he's very relaxed around Kai and sometimes jokes along with him by calling Kai, son here and there. Even has a stool dedicated for Kai to sit n watch if its a slow day. Even has his name on it.
Ash is Kai's mentor when it comes to tattooing. Kai follows Ash around the shop when he's not needed at the front desk. Due to following Ash around and listening to Ash so much, Kai has just started referring to Ash as his dad despite being older than Ash.
Aoku taught Hideki how to be able to hold his breaths for long periods of time while swimming, even if it was through some trickery. He did enjoy when younger Hideki would come by his lake during little Hideki's explorations in the forest.
Aoku couldn't resist the temptation to mess with Ayako the same he did with her father, Hideki, when her father was younger. He taught her how to hold her breath for longer while swimming and how to utilize her tail to allow her to swim quicker and more agile.
Nijo ADORES Hideki. He may have been one of her favorite parts of staying at Fuyuki's inn due to his sweet and somewhat shy nature. Even now that Hideki lives in the city with his lover, Zhanji, she still can't resist teasing him a bit.
When Nijo learned Ayako wanted to join her gang, she took the matter very seriously. Having seen Ayako grow up and how much she's been through, Nijo can't help but feel protective of her. She sees Ayako as a strong and valuable member of her gang.
Apollyon treats Lucius the best amongst all of Tamotsu's mercs since he's a healer and takes care of them. She appreciates all he does for Tamotsu, Lucius even giving her some of his blood to keep on hand as a way to heal Tamotsu in case of emergencies.
Once he noticed Vivalter's horns, he was visibly disgusted and refuse to work near or be close to the man. Definitely has his guard up whenever he spots Vivalter. He guessed working under Cyrus has helped him acknowledge when someone's eyeing his horns.
Vivalter got his horns from a person of Lucius' species, known for their healing abilities. Seeing Lucius' horns have made him slightly envious. If he didn't already have his own, he would already be planning how to take Lucius' horns. There is a lingering thought in the back of his mind that a second set of horns wouldn't hurt... wouldn't hurt him at least. The same can't be said for Lucius.
Jack thinks its fun having someone else that Suji and Crispin can chat with.. at least more lewdly. He thinks he's fun, but his heart can't take it when they start talking about lewd things so casually. If he didn't know any better, he swear they're trying to make his heart burst on purpose.
Braxton absolutely loves teasing and getting Jack flustered. The bigger the reaction from Jack, the more amused he is. He will hold back when they're raiding for the sake of focusing on clearing.
Crispin actually doesn't mind Braxton (out of ppl from Sig's work), just someone easy enough to taunt and tease while waiting for Sig. Especially after learning about his secret. If he didn't want to cause more trouble for Sig, he probably would have more fun knowing Braxton's secret. However, instead he'll just help keep it instead and slightly tease him time to time. (Update: After convo with Sig, Crispin dialed back some of teasing in an attempt to be friends. However they didn't really get friendly til after going on raids and dungeons together for a while)
Braxton's envious of Crispin dating Siegfried, but he also dislikes Crispin simply because Crispin's a little shit who very rarely has moments where he's not annoying to him. (UPDATE: Over time, Braxton has learned to tolerate and come to not dislike Crispin entirely after starting to run raids and dungeons online together.)
Youta likes how calm Masa can be, and he probably would of done half the shit he should if Masa didn't push him a bit. Youta is grateful to have Masa and Jou stay with him through his lowest.
While Masa usually ends up having to calm Animal down, he usually ends up having to push Youta to do stuff. He's glad that Youta managed to grow past the fight with their former drummer.
At first Soren was a bit cautious around Baldur when his smell wasn't recognizable. But after Reid was turned into a vampire under his nose, he went straight to Baldur trying to find a way to be a hybrid so Reid wouldn't have to face his vampirism alone. After meeting Baldur properly and receiving help from him, Soren is forever grateful to him and is also more and more curious of him.
Baldur agreed to turn Soren into a hybrid after careful consideration. Since Soren wasn't an active member of the town's werewolf pack, he had less reason to worry Soren would go around freely turning other pack members into hybrids. He also found it amusing/pitiful how long Soren had managed to not turn Reid into a werewolf after being together for so long... just for Reid to get turned into a vampire by some brat. Since Soren was already strong as a werewolf, he was curious to see how much stronger he could get as a hybrid.
Jack couldn't (stillcan't) believe Oriol was a fan of his and for so long! Jack was intimidated at first by Oriol but quickly find him nice. Developing a crush after hanging out with Ori, which took him forever to figure out. He was thinking of telling Oriol about it, when Oriol ended up asking him out on stream, making the bun pass out from excitement! Everyday with Ori, the more Jack keeps thinking he's way cooler than him! (his way of falling harder and harder for Ori)
Ori quickly got addicted to watching Jack's gaming/cosplay streams, finding Jack to be cute and just fun to watch. Ori would often give donations during streams, comment on almost all of Jack's social media posts, and even buy prints of Jack's different cosplays. When Ori found out that Suji knows Jack personally, he begged Suji to help him meet Jack.
It took months after they initially met in person for Ori to decide to formally ask Jack out since he had been unsure if Jack felt that way about him, but now he wishes he would have done it sooner. He gets to see many more sides to Jack than just what he'd seen on screen.
One of Liam's bros! Liam loves hanging out with Ori and tries to give him his best support! He even got tongue piercing with him. He was a bit upset when he didn't know his friends' interest in cosplay, streams, etc... but just double down to show how much he supports him. Even help get Oriol to meet his favorite streamer!
LIAM IS THE BEST BRO TO ORI. Liam has always been there for Ori whether to just lend an ear or even offer to get tongue piercings at the same time for emotional support. Ori loves hanging out with Liam and tries to reciprocate all the helpful shit Liam does for him.
He will forever feel like he owes Suji and Liam for helping him meet Jack.
After meeting through an online game, Suji slowly became internet buddies with Jack which led to them eventually meeting up in real life - then even meeting up another time for a group cosplay with Jack. Suji does like having another friend to geek out with and throw drama CDs at for voice actors that Jack likes.
Jack met through online game, and slowly became friend's with Suji. Suji is reason he low key became addicted to drama CDs on top of his regular stuff. Though he can't really handle it.
He met Jack online game with Suji, and slowly became friends. Crispin likes to troll Jack's knowledge and ends up receiving a bunch of fan stuff as punishment. Crispin thinks Jack is dorky but he is really good at video games and fun to tease.
Ass, but in a good way. Jack became friends with him online, though Crispin trolls him, he learn it was just how Crispin is. He even sends Crispin bunch of stuff as a joke for having messed with him. Jack don't think he could have become friends with him if Suji wasn't along for the ride though.
Suji was hesitant to go on a date with Liam, but he was worn down by Liam's charm and determination. Due to past dating experiences, Suji was thrown off and uneasy by how much affection Liam openly showed. Now Suji absolutely loves and reciprocates all the affection in copious amounts.
Liam thought Suji was adorable from moment he saw him, and was determined to ask him out, even after realizing he was a guy. Liam loves Suji, and loves to show it anyway he can. He hopes he can make up for all the times Suji felt dejected or shamed for being himself. He may not understand what Suji been through, but he can love and protect him now.
Suji was suspicious of Crispin asking so many questions about him when they first met, but having Crispin there to fend off some bullies made it worth Crispin attempting to get to know him. But now Crispy is Suji's best friend that he can be completely himself around and goof off with.
One of the closest to Crispin. He loves to have fun and often sticks up for Suji. Suji is family to him. Crispin be ready to make anyone's life hell for messing with him. Suji the first person, that made him feel like he had try to be better.
Even though Crispin is a troublemaker, Crispin's chaotic energy and mischief keeps Siegfried on his toes which he enjoys. It helps ease some of his anxiety from his excess energy that he couldn't rid himself of otherwise.
Crispin always liked older men the best, and when this handsome wolf came in often, he made the move while working. Crispin didn't think the relationship was gonna last as he fear letting ppl close. But Sig was different for him, he didn't fall for tricks, out teased him, and was patient. The only other person Crispin wanted to be better for. He fallen hard, and couldn't think of anyone else he would want to be with... to the point he's afraid of ruining it on accident. Though he tries not to think too much about it.
Etienne finds Lucius to be... painfully boring.
But since Lucius has slowly started going out with Cyrus and him more often, he's begun to like Lucius more and wanting to make Lucius' life more exciting.
Lucius still isn't sure what to think of Etienne sometimes, though is glad to have another push to try and have fun. Finds him nice, or well nice to him. Having assassins for friends really is confusing for him at times. He really enjoys the night out with them.
Lucius is Tamotsu's favorite and preferred healer. He appreciates the extra effort on Lucius' part to keep him informed of his mercs' health status and medical restrictions that they may try to hide from him for the sake of still being able to work. Tamotsu tries his best to keep Lucius safe from anyone who may hold a grudge against him or any of the mercs that work for him.
Lucius takes his job seriously, and will give/hand over Tamotsu all information and more he finds important. Lucius likes working under Tamotsu and is often relieved for the extra security to be able to keep doing his job.
