"That's my party person!"
Atlas loves hanging out with Marigold, loving their fun attitude and jokester personality. The two get along really well, causing a lot of chaos together.
"Let's fucking go!"
Atlas is one of the few people that can match Marigolds energy, the pair amping up the parties in the beginning, causing chaos and bringing fun to all the people there. They both often find themselves waking up the next morning, forgetting what had even happened but laughing it off anyway.
"Liven up, buttercup!"
Deep down, Atlas respects Zoya's hesitance to involve herself with his chaotic parties, valuing her as their roommate. However, they do taunt her about it, often flirting with her or trying to urge her to join him. He's very glad she's around to accompany him.
"Shut the fuck up, you reek of booze."
Despite her harsh words, Zoya deeply cares about Atlas. As much as she hates his drunkard habits and chaotic parties, she's always there to support him. She just wishes he'd talk about his feelings instead of drinking them away sometimes.
“..an interesting character. In and out of bed…”
Valentine finds comfort in someone like atlas, they are an opposite to her in many ways, a big one as personality. But also, share similar experiences in their sexuality/gender being, distasteful at their era.
Now they’re drinking buddies with, benefits.
"Hey there hot-stuff~"
Atlas enjoys taunting Valentine, as he does any of his friends. Any place with him around is a fun one, he makes sure of it, and that is no exception when he's around her.
"He's absolutely wonderful at throwing rager parties and has an immaculate fashion sense... whenever Atlas is around one should always prepare for the unexpected."
"An old friend."
Apollo met Nova when she hopped worlds into the Dreamlands one day, ages before they created Zaintis, becoming friends with them. When the laws of the Dreamlands trapped them within its boundaries, the pair became even closer. Nova aided with the creation of Zaintis and occasionally comes to visit the god whilst they rest in the cosmos.
“Hi again Apollo!”
As a world hopper, Nova eventually landed themselves into the Dreamlands, meeting Apollo. The two were able to bond well, nova sharing stories of all the different worlds, watching Apollos creations. Even when trapped within this new realm, they grew closer. Aiding in creations, watching over their minor deity.
A rather unlikely friendship
"I don't know what their connection with my master is but they're quite friendly."
Apollonius wasn't expecting Nova to one day strike up conversation with them but they seemed quite aware of Apollonius' relation to Apollo, claiming to be long friends of theirs. Apollonius isn't sure of this but tries their best to be polite throughout Nova's persistent attempts to befriend them.
“You remind me a lot of your creator!”
Nova is rather, persistent, on creating a bond with Apollonius, despite their minor dislike to it. They intrigue her a lot, a minor deity stepping in for a resting god, and as a friend of their creator, they take quite pride in helping or watching over them. They are desperate for friends in this new world they’ve been forced to reside within.
"My disciple. I trust that they are doing a good job."
When Apollo needed to rest, ze created Apollonius to manage Zaintis whilst they rested in the infinite cosmos. They have not checked up on them in a while yet they are confident their creation is managing their world well.
"My creator and master. I hope I can do them proud..."
Apollonius has a lot of respect for Apollo and the creation they've made. Whilst xe struggle with the feeling that they have done nothing to earn the control of Zaintis, they still try as hard as xe can to make it what Apollo wanted it to be.
My brother! He's definitely not as cool as I am but it's alright, I love him anyway!
Rom's going to get himself into serious trouble one day... I love him but- I'm worried-
Lazarus only views Laszlo as someone who respects his ideals, a rare sight for him. They are on amicable terms. He doesn't know what he did to him.
Laszlo has spoken to Lazarus a few times, possibly for fun or to toy with what he created. He seems to engage in Lazarus' ideas, although not truly believing them himself
As much as he would refuse to admit it, Altair views Faye like a daughter, feeling as though it is his responsibility to protect her from the horrors of the express and Astrophel's deadly nature. Although he is well aware she is a lot smarter and more aware than her persona lets on, he seems to deny it, viewing her as his child in his eyes. He enjoys spending time with her and would do anything to protect her.
Faye genuinely enjoys Altairs company. Both of them working in the engine compartment, they spend a lot of time together, both when the train is running and when it has stopped. She sees him as a kind of father figure, asking him a lot of questions about things her real father should've taught her. The pair really enjoy watching the galaxy from the train windows. They have both found peace together in the unfortunate situation they're both trapped in.
Just as he does with Altair, Astrophel views nothing wrong with what they've done to Faye. He thinks she's a sweet soul and is obsessed with her super soft fur, lovingly comparing it to his fox hears and tail.
Faye in no way trusts Astrophel, knowing the bad he's done and still has not forgiven him for ruining her life at the orphanage. However, he does somewhat thank him for bringing her onto the train, genuinely enjoying it and the views that come with it.
Astrophel enjoys talking to Altair and sees nothing wrong with what they've done to him.
Altair couldn't hate Astrophel enough. He hated his casual attitude to horrible things, his careless acts to those he views as less than him and his impact on his life. If he could be free of him, he would.
