// sarafine's relationships ! //

[Sarafine Duchannes]

Being thaaat she hasn't been around the board all that much yet, this is ICC canon. I just...really like doing these relationship thread things, and also yesterday I got a bunch of questions about what Sarafine thinks of certain characters (she's just a character that's hard to read in general, but especially in the ICC where you can't write much internal stuff out). So! Here we go.


also omfg it's so difficult to keep track of every single person she's spoken to and i feel like some parts of this were kind of rushed. SO IF I FORGOT ANYONE JUST YELL AT ME AND I'LL ADD YOU.

POSITIVE

Shio;;
Shio isn't human. She's a fighter capable of bringing down Aragami the size of buildings. She's self-healing. She's a walking apocalypse. All of these things are initially what made her so incredibly interesting to Sarafine - and the fact that she's entirely too naive and trusting made it that much easier to manipulate her. While for some time, she viewed Shio the way a child might view a particularly interesting toy, though, the truth is that Shio's actually kind of...grown on her, to some extent? Make no mistake - Sarafine's certainly not attached enough to put Shio before her own interests or anything (GOD FORBID), but she has, in some instances, shown genuine concern or affection for Shio. They're just sort of phantom maternal feelings that she can't really experience the way most people can, and that's really all she's capable of at this point - but hey, a month or two ago, she wouldn't have even been capable of that.

Emil;;
I think overall, Sarafine's spent a little less time with Emil than she has with Shio - and there's also the fact that he's constantly getting into trouble (she had to stop him from blowing up the ICC once - she was so done) which frequently has her facepalming. Still, to some extent, she has an odd sort of affection for Emil, too. He's a summon spirit, which, of course, is incredibly interesting - but he's also so genuinely sweet and thoughtful that it's difficult not to be a bit charmed, even for her. He made her a really pretty crystal once, too. It had an eternal flame in it - and if you know anything about Sarafine's obsession with fire, you'll know that this kinda thing'll win you major points with her.

Selim Duchannes;;
Wow the first three people on this list are kids. Or, you know. 'Kids'. Must be those maternal instincts of hers :]. But no, really a major part of the reason Sarafine's so quick to befriend the local children is because...well, it's a great cover. There are few people in our society that people are naturally inclined to trust more than a mother figure. You tell your kids, if they ever get lost, to approach a woman with children to ask for help. Or when a mother and her child are struggling, it's usually most people's first instinct to protect or aid them. In this case, it all worked out very well - it turns out Selim likes playing the 'innocent kid' card to get people to lower their guard, so they're really a perfect match! So um. Yeah. Sarafine's basically adopted him. Best idea 8D. And she thinks he's wonderful because he's loyal and powerful and just delightfully twisted, too.

Joshua Kiryu;;
This dude is actually the best. Like, from what she's seen, he seems to exist solely to troll people, and that's...totally something she can get behind. Joshua is pretty friggin' hilarious, and also potentially useful - oh and, he helped her troll 2.0 with those singing flowers that one time. That alone easily makes him one of Sarafine's favorite people ever, pretty much.

Anna Milton;;
sarafine you're friends with an angel. sarafine pls. She's kind of just a bit...wary of Anna, to be honest. I mean, she's a Dark Caster, not a demon - so she's not instinctively terrified, but she's not stupid enough not to be cautious. That aside, she actually kind of likes Anna? As much as she can like anyone, I mean. There's so much to learn about angels as a species, and Sarafine very much intends to learn all that she can (you know, just in case) - and in the mean time, she's perfectly content to casually chill with Anna. Because Anna's a non-annoying, intelligent conversationalist who surprisingly doesn't jump down her throat, even knowing what she is. Granted, she seems to think Sarafine's 'different' than most of her kind. Which is totally something Sarafine's willing to use to her advantage. 8D

Cora Mills;;
now u will kno how it feelz 2 be da miller's daughter :OOO. Um, welp. It figures these two would get along. They are, after all, THE BEST TWO MOTHERS ON AM :]. No but, Cora is of course incredibly powerful, and kinda shares a similar attitude as Sarafine on a good number of things, and actually...these two have a quite a few parallels now that I think about it?? So yes. Sarafine is p. cool with Cora.

Abraham Ravenwood;;
The very 2spookiest. Welp. Someone needs to tell Sarafine to gtfo away from him because he...clearly does not have her (or anyone's) best interests at heart, but this is going in the 'positive' section all the same because yeah. He's manipulated guided her for a good portion of her life. And he's the only person who's really been totally cool with the Dark Caster thing. And I think that, for as casual and emotionless and 'nbd' as Sarafine is about everything, at the end of the day she really doesn't want to...find herself alone.





NEUTRAL

Kyubey;;
ohai coobie :]. You're kind of adorable! And also vaguely skeevy. Like, Sarafine is 100% positive there's more to you than meets the eye - she just hasn't exactly figured out what it is yet. Clearly she's just paranoid, I mean - why wouldn't an intelligent but defenseless cute, fluffy animal choose to hang around the ICC all day?

Fluffy;;
..LOL SURPRISE. Sarafine actually has no idea about Fluffy's whole deal, so she thinks he's Kyubey. And she also has no idea he's affiliated with 2.0. Whoops.

Ratatosk;;
Ratatosk is Shio's close friend - and he also frequently protects her, so by extension, he's someone that Sarafine considers valuable. What with him being far less trusting than Emil, though, she hasn't quite gotten him to really warm up to her - so they're in neutral territory, for now. She pointedly takes extra care to avoid making him suspicious.

The Condesce;;
So the Condesce is some troll empress from some distant troll empire or something - yeah, Sarafine doesn't really care about that, but she'll be sure to flatter if she thinks it'll get her further. She's more interested in the fact that the Condesce both seems to despise humans, and has quite a lot of power. Because that's always a fun combination! The only question is whether or not there's a way to work it to her advantage.

Eridan Ampora;;
lololol eridan ur the condesce's minion so you're clearly not as important :]. And yet you're still powerful and non-human, so you're still interesting. And then there's the fact that your eternally exasperated done-with-everything attitude is really very entertaining, so that wins you some points!

Garchomp;;
Hey look, a dragon! That's p. cool. Sarafine's only met Garchomp once, but they talked about Hazama and gaining power and...most importantly, setting things on fire. If your special abilities include anything related to lots and lots of fire, then Sarafine's pretty much automatically going to be interested, so. Garchomp certainly strikes her as a being who could wreck a hell of a lot of shit if she wanted to, and Sarafine hasn't ruled out manipulating that yet.

Oswin Oswald;;
Well Sarafine met Clara first, so as far as she's concerned, Oswin is...Clara's time duplicate :]. And, while human (ugh), Oswin is interesting because of both her smarts and her position as the Tenth Doctor's companion. And getting on the first Team TARDIS' good side would be the most ':]' thing to 2.0. And also, she's picked up on the fact that boosting Oswin's ego and giving her compliments is a terribly blatant way to get in her good graces, so. Time to turn on the charm :].

Peter Pan;;
So this kid is like. Whatever. He seems to hate adults, and while he is interesting, he's a little too distrusting to be able to manipulate easily - she has more promising opportunities to manipulate other people who make it a bit easier. Also CLASSIC LITERATURE CHARACTER JFHDSFKJDFS.

Hazama;;
Apparently, the entire ICC is convinced that Hazama is way 2spooky. And that's got Sarafine...quite curious, actually. It's rare to find anyone who has everyone so...universally intimidated. Whatever he's capable of seems to have the rest of the ICC freaking out, so she has no intention of getting in his way - at least not yet, when she knows so little about him. He's one of the more fascinating inhabitants of this place, though - and the more she appears to fret over him, the less...evil she seems in turn, so, that's always useful. >D

Killian Jones;;
DO WHAT YOU WANT CAUSE A PIRATE IS FREE :OO. Idk, she doesn't really know much about Killian yet. She's spoken to him, like...once or twice. And he generally seems pretty okay, for a human - but if she ever finds out he's the Captain Hook, she's going to be the most done omfg. Actually Sarafine's gonna be p. much done with any classic literature characters - she was quite an avid reader when she was younger.

Mr. Gold;;
So at first Sarafine kind of thought he was another Dark Caster. Awk. But once she got past that, he was still pretty interesting because she realized that he had power in his own right. She'd like to learn more about his brand of magic - but hasn't really chatted him up lately.

Lucifer;;
Oh man, the Devil. Who knew he was real? Sarafine sure didn't. In fact, she used to mock Satan as being a figure humanity came up with so that they'd have someone to blame their sins on. So actually meeting Lucifer and discovering that he exists in this dimension was...quite a shock! He's undeniably powerful, too, and Sarafine's fairly certain that he'd make a good ally - it's just that she's not quite sure she wants to get sucked into all that. He is, after all, the devil.

Daisy;;
Daisy is...well, Sarafine's not quite sure what Daisy is. She can tell she's not human, but - the closest equivalent to a vampire in Sarafine's world are the bloodsucking Incubi, and she knows Daisy's not one of them, either. They haven't really interacted much, so it's just basic curiosity at this point. Because all non-human things are so ~interesting~

Hououin Kyouma;;
Oh okay another random human. This one's very clever, though! Sarafine was rather impressed by the way he got rid of Biomatrix that one time. Of course, regardless, he's still a human. And therefore still lame. But Sarafine underestimates people a lot less often than she appears to, so she'll be keeping an eye on this one...

Lúthien;;
As of recently, this is just a liiittle bit complicated. Sarafine is, clearly, not someone who gets super remorseful over her actions, but she was just a little bit out of her mind (more so than usual) when she tortured Lúthien - thnx a lot Silmaril :]. To make things worse, when she got the blood sucked out of her by some random lingering vampire afterwards, Lúthien went and healed her. That's just not cool B(. Now Sarafine feels like she owes her something. Owing people things is never good. It's all just very confusing for her.




NEGATIVE

Lena Duchannes;;
2SPOOKY :OOO. Welp. Lena's just the biggest disappointment ever because she dIDN'T TURN DARK. And Sarafine's just here like "why are you so yolo omg that's not even allowed". So now, the only way she can really see to proceed from here is to a) manipulating and/or forcing Lena into doing dark things anyway or b) ...well, kill her out of sheer spite. best mother award :]. Idk though, Sarafine isn't completely emotionally indifferent to her daughter. If she ever got the chance to actually kill her - I mean, if there was legit nothing in her way - I'm nooot quite sure she could actually do it. Who knows, though.

The Ninth Doctor;;
So Sarafine's entire attitude towards Team TARDIS 2.0 is basically 'omg can u not'. Like, who are these random jackasses who are suddenly getting between her and her daughter? The Doctor is probably the one she's had the least interaction with out of all of them, but he's also prooobably the one she's most wary of. She knows he's not human, and she's been picking up bits and pieces of his reputation - so she'll be sure to deal with him very carefully, if he gets in her way.

Clara Oswald;;
Wow Clara is human, and a part of Team TARDIS 2.0. So she's a double loser :]. Most villains would probably single Clara out as 2.0's easiest target (they clearly haven't seen her stab that Aragami), but after...well, torturing her, Sarafine's learned that her sheer stubbornness alone isn't to be underestimated. That, along with Clara's very clear urge to protect the ICC's children at any cost, has earned her an odd sort of respect in Sarafine's book. And, you know, she's really fun to troll. She turns into like, an angry Mary Poppins. It's p. funny.

Ridley Duchannes;;
fak u ridley. Sarafine doesn't even really care about her much - but Ridley betrayed her, and so it's really the principle of the thing, you know? Because Sarafine doesn't like betrayal. Not one bit. She erased the soft spot she had for her family a long time ago (about the time they all disowned her after she turned dark), so she'll really have absolutely no qualms about killing Ridley off if she gets the chance.

Biomatrix;;
Biomatrix pls. At this point, Sarafine's just kind of wondering what hellspawn vomited you up, and how she can get it to take you back. Again, this is one of those people who gloats about their power and what they're capable of for everyone to hear - which is something she finds very, very stupid. Beyond that, his ambitions to eventually eat the world are something she can't really get behind because...well...that would involve all the Casters dying off too :c. Also, in her opinion, he talks too much. That'll never win you any points with her.

Madoka;;
MADOKA YOUR WHOLE HOPE THING IS THE MOST UNCOOL B(. Sarafine is, of course, quite detached from her emotions, and Madoka kind of unwittingly forces them back on her. Oops. But being that Madoka's...well...a concept, there's not much Sarafine can really do about it - except try to keep her distance. Because being washed over by waves of hope might be a pleasant experience for some people, but for a Dark Caster, it's just an uncomfortable, foreign experience. :c

Pitch Black;;
Pitch, the whole fear spirit thing is...p. cool and all, but you keep going after Shio and Emil and Ratatosk. So that's. Not cool B(. Sarafine doesn't have any real personal problems with Pitch, but him being around doesn't exactly thrill her, either, and she'll be quick to try and shoo him away if he messes with the wrong people. Other than that, she is actually kind of curious to learn more about him? And they do share a common enemy in Team TARDIS 2.0, so.

D.A.V.E;;
Welp. This robot is...a thing. So far, Sarafine isn't really a fan - the kind of outward arrogance that DAVE blatantly displays is a trait she frequently looks down upon (in fact - it's an almost surefire way to get her to troll you; she likes bringing people down a peg or two)...and also, he hurt Shio. Which, in Sarafine's book, is kind of one of the few things worth getting vaguely angry about. So don't do it. B(

Narret;;
Sarafine is typically pretty friendly with kids, but if the irritating outweighs the useful, she's unlikely to tolerate them for long. That's the case with Narret. Sarafine typically has very little sympathy for tragic back stories and whatnot, so she mostly just sees Narret as weak, cowardly, and useless. And the stutter. The stutter's really annoying. So of course that's a perfectly justified reason to go around setting the poor kid on fire all the time :].

Caliborn;;
Oh Caliborn. You're somehow simultaneously Sarafine's favorite and least favorite. You're so obnoxious, but so much fun to troll. She kind of revels in the fact that he's just constantly flipping his shit, especially when it's directed at her - she enjoys being the Jack to his Stephen. She does take his threats a good deal more seriously than she lets on, though - and that's going to be especially true now that Hazama himself warned her about him - but as far as she's concerned? Caliborn thinking she's underestimating him gives her some level of advantage. So she has no intention of changing her behavior any time soon.

Doc Scratch;;
Ew Doc Scratch B(. Sarafine doesn't like the fact that he's omniscient. Not one bit. Not that her wariness of him makes her any less ':]' towards him, of course, but he's definitely...a problem, as far as she's concerned. The fact that he's working for Caliborn - and is the leader of the Felt - only makes it worse. Hm, I wonder how long it'll take to make that Lord English connection? :] The only trouble is, it's difficult to warn everyone about this shit when...again, Scratch is omniscient. Sarafine isn't. (yet :])

John Eades;;
no john omg why do you exist john no. Seriously, having your dead ex-husband (who is, in fact, dead because you killed him) come back to haunt you is not the most pleasant experience. And there's nothing she can even do about it, because he's a ghost B(. Then there's also the fact that she still believes that he...tried to take her baby away from her back in the day and that he's the reason she doesn't have Lena, and that combined with the fact that he's taken to constantly trolling her these days means she absolutely hates him. And yet, it's funny - he's probably the person she shows the most genuine emotion around. Even if it's all negative emotion.

Sylar;;
So this random dude just walks in and starts a fight when she's right in the middle of torturing Clara. Not cool, bro. She's mildly irritated with him for that - and while she finds his abilities vaguely interesting, he's still a human. He'd be lame and not worth her time if not for the fact that he tries taking other beings' powers. Yeah, that um. Reminds Sarafine an awful lot of a certain someone coughangeluscough. So yes. Sylar is a fly she'd very much like to swat.

Jackie Tyler;;
I save the worst for last. SARAFINE'S ULTIMATE ENEMY :OOO. No but seriously, this woman is...insane. Even by Sarafine's standards. She may be human, but she's just so...intense that it's actually kind of terrifying, and Sarafine would just rather...steer clear of her. It's actually pretty freaking hilarious.

[Sarafine Duchannes]

Oh my god so um. CASUALLY UPDATING THIS :]. Jfc so much has changed. LET'S SEE.

POSITIVE

SHIO;;
HEY LOOK that affection actually turned genuine :]. It turns out if you hang out with kid like Shio long enough, even a Dark Caster can't help getting attached. But no - Shio is one of the AM!characters that Sarafine's known the longest, and one of the first she realized she actually cared about as her emotions became more potent. By the time Shio's core had been sealed, Sarafine kinda realized how soft she'd gotten - the old her would have abandoned the kid the second she lost her usefulness. I would say Sarafine's...well, not more fond of Shio than the other kids she's semi-'adopted' - but she kind of does have a special affection for her. Might have to do with the fact that Shio's the youngest of the kids, or that they, y'know, very nearly died together :].

EMIL;;
Man, Emil has had it rough. From going through literal Hell, to being tormented by various ICC entities, to losing Eris - he's really sort of backslided a lot lately, which...is especially painful for Sarafine, because all the while she's grown more attached to him. Really, what she wants more than just about anything right now is to see him happy again - but there are a lot of times when she just doesn't know how to help him. He kind of used to be her light - he was the Summon Spirit of Peace, and just consistently cheerful and kind to everyone, and seeing him the way he is now? It really does hurt - partly just because she adores him, and partly because it's like watching a little Caster kid go Dark or something. Oh - and she's kept that fire crystal all this time.

LENA DUCHANNES;;
Although Sarafine seems to have developed a tendency of mothering the ICC's local children, Lena is...you know, her actual kid. It's really kind of heartbreaking that ~back in the day~, Sarafine went to Abraham out of desperation to help save Lena. And Abraham ended up being the reason she went Dark and lost Lena in the first place. But yeah - as Sarafine started to get her emotions back, her love for Lena kind of hit her full-force. She still has a lot of guilt over abandoning Lena in the first place, and for terrorizing her since then, and also just a lot of regret that she missed so much of her daughter's life. To some extent, being around Lena is pretty painful because of that - but it also gives her an overwhelming sense of pride, to see what a brilliant person her kid's become all on her own, and Sarafine just wants to get to know her and ask her a million questions and learn everything she missed all at once - but she's been reigning herself in. Barely.

ERIS;;
Eris was Sarafine's Summon Spirit - and at first, unsurprisingly, Sarafine was pretty much just using her to gain power. But through their connection, Eris could sense the emotions that Sarafine was experiencing, and...was kind of the first person to actually try to help her through that. That was how they initially bonded - but I suppose you could say that over time, they learned to feel together. Sarafine eventually developed genuine maternal feelings for Eris - and even reassured her that they were, in some dysfunctional way, a family. So needless to say, losing Eris was...pretty hard on her. It was actually the first extreme instance of grief Sarafine had experienced in a long, long time - and she's still struggling with it. But I think she's kind of...forgotten how to talk to people about that sort of thing. That, and she feels she needs to stay strong for Emil, who's in even more pain than she is - so she hasn't been in the habit of allowing her grief to show through.

RATATOSK;;
Ratatosk, being Shio's Summon Spirit, is both important to her and has played a major role in protecting her. So as far as Sarafine's concerned, he's pretty great - even if he's a little reckless at times. She keeps most of the 'Ratatosk pls' to herself, though, at least for Shio's sake.

CLARA OSWIN OSWALD;;
TEAM HOW AREN'T WE DEAD YET :]. No but, how did these two get on near-positive terms, I don't even know. They did have a pretty epic adventure together, so that's always a bonding experience. And Clara's one of the few people who's seen Sarafine get super-emotional, which happened the night before the angels were supposed to attack. I also think, now that she's Light, Sarafine kind of feels like she has a lot to make up for where Clara's concerned. And as for Clara's whole struggle with Cast - it just...I guess it's kind of a kick in the feels, to see a mother who refuses to give up on their child no matter how bad things get. It's kinda rare to find a mother like that in the Duchannes clan. So for those reasons, Sarafine's pretty determined to help her save Cast.

She's also still occasionally fun to troll, though. Angry Mary Poppins :].

KYUBEY;;
After becoming a magical girl, Sarafine's become pretty dependent on Kyubey for information and guidance - so I guess you could call their relationship positive? She lets him sit on her shoulder, too. Not just any cute fuzzy animal gets to sit on Sarafine Duchannes' shoulder. Even though she is a Disney Princess.


NEUTRAL

THE REST OF 2.0;;
Ehh. They're still not Sarafine's favorite people in the world, but at least she's no longer trying to kill them? And they're important to Lena, so that means keeping them safe is a priority. Actually, Sarafine hasn't really interacted all that much with most of them. There's Nine, who she's only caught glimpses of (but at least he's better than Ten). And Fluffy, who is...not-Kyubey. She still hasn't gotten that story straightened out. And then Ridley, who is still her delinquent niece as far as she's concerned :].

MACON RAVENWOOD;;
She wouldn't exactly consider Macon an enemy anymore, but that doesn't exactly mean they get along. They are pretty much the definition of squabbling (half) siblings, and Macon is the most :] to Sarafine, and it's pretty beautiful. But one thing they have in common is that they're both highly invested in keeping Lena safe, so she tolerates him because of that. Truth be told, though? Sarafine still harbors a lot of resentment and even hurt towards her family for disowning her after her Claiming, and she tends to take a lot of it out on Macon.

ETHAN WATE;;
eTHAN PLS. He's still hung up on the fact that Sarafine saved him when they were in the ~spirit world~, I guess. Sarafine would really rather he just get over it because now he keeps doing ridiculous things like 'saving' her from vampires and shit. But although she's pretty much constantly done with him, and still vaguely disapproving of Lena dating a mORTAL, she at least manages to hover less than Macon does. :]

JOHN EADES;;
John isn't really the annoyance he once was - she realizes, now, that he was trying to help her. But honestly? Being around him is sort of...painful. It reminds her of all the things she lost her chance to have. And to some extent, especially now that she's Light, she does still love him - he was kind of the person who kept her not-totally-Dark for three years, so those kind of feelings don't ever really just go away. But he's a ghost, and that alone means he's a walking reminder that she killed him, and...a part of her just really wishes he'd leave her alone and let her forget.

DAVE STRIDER;;
This kid is okay? She has no real interest in him one way or the other, except he did win some points with her in the most recent Nova incident. He was unwilling to give up on Shio until the last moment, and Sarafine appreciated that - which is probably why she bothered dragging him away to save his life.

CORA MILLS;;
Sorry Cora, you're demoted to Neutral status because lol evil people are not good influences. Sarafine's still interested in her magic, and still willing to be civil, but she won't be helping Cora pull off any evil schemes any time soon. What a pity. :c

THE CONDESCE;;
So yeah. Condy is still powerful, which means she's still interesting, and was generally pretty cool back when Sarafine was Dark. And while she's still pretty cool to some extent and Sarafine doesn't have any intention of messing with her, there's also a new level of wariness here - because hurting Emil is no longer a thing that is okay with Sarafine. Guys pls stop picking on her kids.

ERIDAN AMPORA;;
Pretty much the same as above, here. Eridan, you're cool and all, but Sarafine's keeping an eye on you.

OSWIN OSWALD;;
Oswin is okay, for a human. She cares about Shio, and helped Sarafine kill Forcystus, and is generally p. okay to talk to, so that's all cool and what not. But she's also supporting the Doctor in his decision to keep the Eternal Sword from everyone, so that's...not so cool. Team TARDIS pls B(.

THE TENTH DOCTOR;;
Ten was p. okay when he gave his life for Shio and all, and to some extent, Sarafine respects him for that. But like...dude. Seriously. You kept the Eternal Sword locked away and provided no alternative for helping defeat the angels and eRIS DIED BECAUSE OF THAT. Not. Cool. So while she does respect him, Sarafine feels that his peaceful tendencies cloud his judgement, aaand she's a bit angry with him at the moment.

SEXY;;
Lol omfg what even is this girl. TARDIS. Whatever. She's very strange, and one of the few people capable of making Sarafine p. done. She also kind of got the feeling that Sexy doesn't like her :]. And now she's incredibly wary of the TARDIS in general.

CASTIEL;;
Sarafine's only met Cas once or twice, and that was when she was Dark - but she had a ton of fun trolling him, then. Even though he's angel, she actually quite likes him - though now that she isn't 2spooky and dorksyded anymore, a lot of fun might have gone out of the trolling. :c

NYARLATHOTEP;;
On one hand, Nyarlathotep is incredibly 2spooky and also caused that whole mess with Shio that led to eVERYONE DYING, which was...y'know, really not cool. Sarafine's not his biggest fan - but on the other hand, he's also kind of her Persona, which creates a connection that kind of unfortunately lands him in the 'neutral' category. She's still extremely wary of him - but also recognizes his power, and is, to some extent, willing to use it.

MITHOS;;
Mithos is an angel, and for that, Sarafine's automatically suspicious of him. But she found his reasons for not fighting alongside the other angels to be fairly convincing, and now that he's offered to fight on their side, well - she's hardly going to complain. She also kind of thinks he should get the Eternal Sword. I mean someone has to wield it, right?

MADOKA;;
Welp. Now that Sarafine's Light, she doesn't really have any reason to freak out about ~hope~ and other positive emotions - so she's a little less wary of Madoka these days. Plus, y'know, she's a magical girl. They can totes bond over that :].


NEGATIVE

ABRAHAM RAVENWOOD;;
Despite her unhealthy dependency on Abraham, Sarafine found herself distancing herself for him more and more as her attachments to other people became more genuine. But, partly because he'd been her mentor for so long and was, in her eyes, the only person who'd never really 'given up' on her - and partly because she's just terrified of him - Sarafine was reluctant to abandon him even after things started to change. So she attempted to separate her two lives, but when Abraham showed up in the ICC and threatened Emil and Lena with his presence, it became pretty evident to her that this wasn't going to work. She had to choose. So she did - by contracting with Kyubey to turn Light, ensuring that Abraham lost all his power over her, and fleeing from him and the other Incubi. Also, since becoming Light, things have become a bit more clear to her - the extent of his previous manipulation is much more obvious to her now, and she's p. much done with him. Gee, hopefully this won't have any consequences. :]

THE ANGELS;;
Hi angels, you've pretty much made Sarafine's life lately by endangering her and pretty much everyone she cares about. Thanks for that. Now that she knows they don't have the Eternal Sword, and quite a few of them have been beaten, she's not quite as hopeless about the whole thing as she once was. In fact, now she's just angry. They killed Eris. Needless to say, she definitely has a score to settle.

HAZAMA;;
Hazama used to be a character who was somewhat fascinating to Sarafine, but given all the shit he's pulled, he's definitely become an enemy at this point. Given how terrified everyone is of him, she's well aware that he has some pretty intense power, even if she's never seen all of it herself. And while she's in no hurry to go up against him, she will by no means back down if he threatens someone she cares for.

GAMZEE MAKARA;;
Sarafine doesn't forget those who've fucked with her in a hurry. And since Gamzee was partly responsible for the first Nova incident, and continues to be a threat to Shio, Sarafine's none too fond of him. They had a pretty badass fight this one time because he provoked her mama bear instincts. That was cool.

CASTAGNIER;;
Cast omfg you are so much more trouble than you're worth. You're constantly mouthing off or picking fights with Emil or just generally being a dangerous sociopath which is bad because yOU LIVE ON 2.0'S TARDIS. Sarafine doesn't like him much at all, but she generally puts up with him - and even goes as far as to try to save him, apparently - because he's Clara's kid. And she also has vague ~dark magic~ parallels with him.

RUMPELSTILTSKIN;;
Rumpel is the cause of all this shit with Cast so he really freaking sUCKS. His manipulative tendencies and the way he so clearly takes pleasure in corrupting people remind Sarafine a lot of what she went through with Abraham, as well, so I don't see her trusting him under any circumstances.

BIOMATRIX;;
oh yeah he faded into obscurity or something lol ew good riddance.

PITCH BLACK;;
Pitch pls B(. He continues to mess with hER KIDS aaand also he's one of 2.0's main enemies, which now makes her a pretty big concern as far as Sarafine's concerned. And also now that she's Light, she actually has quite a few fears he can use against her. So she's gonna be a liiiittle bit more wary now.

CALIBORN;;
CALIBORN :]. Sarafine's gonna have to troll you even if she is light now, sorry. But, you know, troll with caution. Because apparently you're gonna be rly rly 2spooky in the future, or something.

DOC SCRATCH;;
He hasn't been a problem lately, but. Since last time, Sarafine discovered that he is, in fact, working for Lord English. And that's just not very nice.

JACKIE TYLER;;
STILL THE 2SPOOKIEST THING EVER OMFG I HOPE SHE STAYS IN THE TARDIS FOREVER.
