seo-hyun and fatima are acquainted. seo-hyun knows little about fatima other than what riley has told her. she finds fatima a little too exuberant for her, and is a bit intimidated by the engineer. still, if riley trusts her there must be something good about fatima, so in general seo-hyun views fatima positively.
fatima and seo-hyun are acquainted. seo-hyun is the resistance member that fatima knows the least about, since most of the time riley is accompanied by anachou instead of the devil. she does feel sorry for seo-hyun and wishes that she could help them, but doesn't want to force them to do something they dont want to do.
kitty and fatima are friends!!! kitty thinks fatima is really interesting and likes to hang out with her. they like to bring little trinkets they have found on their adventures to her. kitty likes to listen to fatima talk about her projects even tho it all pretty much goes over their head, because fatima’s excitement is contagious. kitty doesn't quite understand fatima’s insistence on performing regular maintenance on kitty, but is fine with it.
fatima and kitty are friends. fatima feels like kitty is a mix between a pet and her child, and feels protective towards the cyborg. while she would never tell kitty this, she worries about them and their naive outlook on the world, and wishes she could impress upon them to be careful. but, she doesn't want to kill off kitty’s childlike wonder at the world, so she compromises with making kitty come to her for regular checkups.
riley and fatima are friends! riley likes that fatima doesn't ask prying questions about his requests for repairs or augmentations. she’s just happy to get to tinker with a cyborg, regardless of the circumstances. he has tried to recruit her into his resistance group proper, but knows that deep down she is one who wants to seek her destiny alone. he also worries sometimes that her snarking will get in trouble with the wrong people, but doesn't know how to deflate her ego.
fatima and riley are friends! fatima is appreciative of how receptive riley is to all of her ideas. he’s not exactly submissive, but he is flexible. fatima does bristle a little at the idea of being called part of his resistance force, because to her that puts a limitation on her. she doesn't want to label herself as aligning with anyone in particular. she is willing to vouch for riley as an individual, though. and she likes that he trusts her enough to come to her with issues that he can't solve on his own.
anachou and fatima are acquainted. anachou trusts fatima on the basis of riley trusting fatima. he doesn't really have an urge to become closer friends with her, and is put off a bit by her exuberance. he knows through riley that despite her eccentricities that she is a talented engineer, so he respects her for that.
fatima and anachou are acquainted. since fatima can’t speak japanese, anything she says has to be translated through riley. fatima suspects that riley is softening her speech to some extent, since anachou is relatively affable to her in their brief encounters. she thinks he’s a little stiff and intimidating, but trusts that he means well deep down.
milena and estera are sisters, although not by blood. milena trusts estera entirely, and the two often hang out after work. milena will often buy little gifts for estera just on a whim. the two split responsibilities at home and work well together. milena knows that estera is a bit of a workaholic, so xe will often drag estera out for relaxation purposes. on the same front, milena is often more productive when estera asks something of xir.
estera and milena are sisters, although not by blood. the two trust each other more to a great extent. they work well together at home and split responsibilities. despite arguably being as flighty as milena at times, estera tends to be a dampening force against xir impulsivity. on the flipside, milena encourages estera to be more laid back and to take breaks for herself every once in a while. the two will often hang out after work. estera is also dedicated to acting as an alibi for milena, should xe need it.
james and estera are friends and coworkers. estera is willing to fluff james’s ego, and he likes her for that. but perhaps because he knows that she’s not sexually interested in him, he finds himself able to have a genuine friendship with her, and will flatter her back. he admires her unending optimism even if he things sometimes it leans into naivety. he does pull her away from work at times for some selfcare time, which helps him as well since he wouldnt necessarily take breaks on his own.
estera and james are coworkers and friends. estera knows that james is self absorbed, but seeing as she is one of the few people he reciprocates flattery with, she does hype him up on a regular basis. the two will often gossip about clients and other goings on in the brothel. estera puts her foot down at anything overtly cruel. the two sometimes hang out outside of work, usually going to the gym or a nearby park. usually free (or already paid for in the case of the gym) things, since james doesn't like spending money.
james and milena are coworkers. james is polite to milena, after having being rebuffed multiple times on trying to be friendlier. he was never interested in xir sexually, but more so just wants everyone to like him. being that he does very little self reflection, james isn’t exactly sure why milena doesn’t like him, but he’s not going to put in extra effort to try to befriend her when staying just as amicable coworkers is working.
milena and james are coworkers. milena is cordial with james, but overall isn’t a fan of his peacocking and general attitude. being a firsthand witness to his displays of vanity (hogging the vanity in the dressing room, for one) has also dampened her opinion on him. she’s never rude to him though, and prefers to just leave him be. not someone she wants to get to know outside of work.
florentino and cassidy are acquainted. since florentino never leaves his apartment anymore, he has hired cassidy to drop off food and other supplies at his place once a week. he doesn't speak to cassidy outside of their business transactions, and in fact doesn't know she's a devil. he appreciates her willingness to simply do the job on time without asking questions.
cassidy and florentino are acquainted. cassidy came across florentino's request online for someone to drop off supplies weekly and took it up as it seemed like easy money. cassidy has barely talked to florentino, and doesn't know he's a cherub, but none of that really matters to her. as long as the money continues to come, she is more than willing to do a short grocery trip weekly for floren.
olivia has only seen lettie a few times in passing, but has managed to remember them, for some odd reason. they feel a connection to the quasi-deity they can't quite explain.
lettie has only seen olivia a few times in passing. and yet, it feels some sort of familiarity with the robot.

My older sibling!! They look amazing in everything (of course, it helps that I'm a stellar designer). Still, I can't help feeling something is off...
My younger sister. I used to design outfits with her, but those days are long gone. Am I still jealous of her talent? ...Maybe a little.
My older sibling! Ever since they took the pill, they've become much more cheerful, which is great! They were so gloomy before.
My younger brother. A talented seamstress. Has a good head on their shoulders.
Nice fashion sense, often buying clothes from their store and another store. . .
☆ A cute kid!! They play piano so well, I wonder if he would be up for a collab! ☆
I feel pity for them. Another performer whose art destroys their body. And yet, we still create.
the end of the world? what is this man talking about... I don't know if I trust him yet, but I need to see heaven for myself.
I thought I was the only angel in the outskirts. she seems nervous, but has a quiet strength that intrigues me.
