Relationship List v. 2.0: Part 1
Wednesday Addams: Al only knows her vaguely. He thinks she's pretty creepy [eating rats whut] but doesn't really mind her much. She seems like a nice enough person if you pay attention enough.
Alice: Another vaguely creepy person. Al's only spoken with her once, and also met the Cheshire cat briefly. He thinks they're both fairly nice, if a bit or a lot disturbing.
Anne Shirley: Who doesn't like Anne? She's sweet and kind and everything stereotypical nice girls are like. Al doesn't talk to her much, but wouldn't mind doing her a favor.
Honshou Chizuru: Met once or twice - no real opinion.
Ishida Uryuu: Ackpbbt Uryuu. Al adores him and will always hold some fondness for him. Uryuu was one of the very first people he met in camp, and Al's always thought he was a pretty nice guy - and he is. Al can't help but respect someone who's so willing to put themselves on the line for the sake of others. He just thinks Uryuu's a complete idiot about the way he does it. Lately, what with Uryuu attacking Yuusuke and having a Nishi-killing spree, Al's respect for him has dropped a good deal. He can't understand how Uryuu can just assume someone like Yuusuke, who's previously been a good guy except for going crazy once, is suddenly evil and going to rampage mindlessly because of what he happens to be. And he doesn't exactly approve of the blind killing either. >: Still, even with the disappointment in him, Al wouldn't hesitate to defend Uryuu if he ever needs it.
Yamada Hanatarou: Only met once - considers him useful since he seems to be a doctor.
Bob the Angry Flower: Talking flower. Whut. That's about the extent of Al's opinion on him.
Buffy Summers: Fellow disbanded-council member! Al thinks she's got a level head on her shoulders and holds a fair amount of respect for her. He doesn't talk with her too much though, so he's only distantly aware of her.
Nokoru Imonoyama: Helped Al with setting up the council. Nice guy.
Alex: Hasn't met.
Impulse: Awww~ Al loves Impulse, even if they don't talk much. He considers Imp a good friend and likes the energy and cheerfulness about him.
Starfire: Only vaguely knows. Al spoke with her at length about the Imperius Riddle had placed on her. He feels guilty for not really explaining what had happened to her, but doesn't really have an opinion on her specifically.
Kon-El: Kon looked out for him a bit here and there after Al had just gotten his body back. Al thinks he's a good guy, but really doesn't know him very well.
George: Hasn't met.
L: Al doesn't particularly like him. He's fairly well convinced that L was the cause of at least some of the deaths and revivals that occured before the save points were brought in [one of which involved Uryuu]. He doesn't have solid proof of it - just educated guessing that was made with the help of some investigation he and Uryuu conducted for a time. On top of that the deaths seem to have stopped for the most part, so Al just ignores him unless L does something that catches his attention.
Mello: Since he and Near are L's heirs, Al suspects they're somehow involved the deaths and revivals as well. The deaths seems to have since stopped though, so he generally doesn't notice them unless they do something that catches his interest. He likes Mello a bit more than Near, if only because it's easier to spot emotion in Mello. He doesn't have much more of an opinion than that.
Near: Since he and Mello are L's heirs, Al suspects they're somehow involved the deaths and revivals as well. The deaths seems to have since stopped though, so he generally doesn't notice them unless they do something that catches his interest. Al finds Near a good deal more intimidating than Mello. Near's more similar to Ishida emotionally, and knowing how difficult it is to deal with Ishida who actually likes him, it makes him somewhat wary of Near. When Near joined the alchemy class, Al was initially concerned he'd try to move ahead of the rest of the class. A tense talk reassured him though, but chances are he'll be watching Near a bit more closely than the rest of the students.
Raito: Met once, but really only knows him through Ying. Thinks he's a nice guy.
Raenef: Hasn't met.
Asok: Hasn't met.
Lady: Hasn't met.
Susan Sto Helit: Hasn't met.
Raistlin Majere: Only met once or twice during the Fraud fiasco. He didn't seem to place any blame on Al for the creation of the homunculus, which Al appreciated.
Da Qiao: Hasn't met.
Gan Ning: Hasn't met.
Huang Yue Ying: Al adores Ying, even if they don't talk much lately. He'd taken to following her around quite a bit before Edward returned to camp, and probably looks on her as something of an aunt.
Ling Tong: Hasn't met.
Lu Xun: Only vaguely aware of the new Lu - he new the previous one a bit better.
Sun Ce: Hasn't met.
Xiao Qiao: Hasn't met.
Megan: Hasn't met.
Elgala: Vaguely aware of - no real opinion.
Excel: Excel wants to take over the world. Also, she hit Al a lot when they first met. D: Recently though, Al's begun to recognize that she's a very good friend to Ash and appreciates that she looks out for him as much as she does.
Hyatt: Met once - vaguely aware that she has some kind of medical condition, but has no real opinion on her.
Hiruma Youichi: Vaguely wary. Al remembers the actions the first Hiruma took, and is somewhat concerned about what he might do now that he's returned to camp. He's fairly certain things won't go so badly again though.
Erk: Burned down the cabins once. Didn't seem intentional though, so no hard feelings. Doesn't really take notice of him though.
Kaylee Frye: She seems like a sweet girl. Al's only met her once though.
Simon Tam: Hasn't met.
Hanajima Saki: Hasn't met.
Sohma Hatsuharu: Hasn't met.
Sohma Hiro: Vaguely aware of. Didn't want to know Winry for some reason - whut?
Sohma Yuki.: Hasn't met.
Uotani Arisa: Hasn't met.
Edward Elric: Brother! Ed is the single most important person in Al's life - period. They've been together since always, and Al would go to any length for his brother, though he'll at least try to talk him out of some of the more dangerous things he may want to do - kind of. Exceptions are when Al thinks it's the right thing to do anyway, and then they come home in pieces.
Envy: ... Loathing. Pure loathing. Al's recently learned that it was Envy who murdered Hughes. And Envy attempted to break Ari by tormenting him in Al's form. While Al isn't the sort to try killing Envy himself, he doesn't mind at all if someone else feels up to the task. And he'd be more than willing to give Envy a good beating should the opporunity arise.
Fletcher Tringham: Al's relationship with Fletcher is driven primarily by guilt on his end of things. He can't quite get over the fact that he [And Ari and Omi] brought Russel back as a homunculus, and really has no idea how to go about making it up to Fletcher. He does his best to look out for him when he can. Though, recently, he's begun to be more annoyed by Fletcher. Fletcher attempted to kill Rey with a...voodoo cookie. While Al can understand the sentiment, he certainly isn't going to just gloss over someone attempting murder on someone who isn't Envy right in front of him. Bad Fletcher. >: Bad.
Russel Tringham: Russel started off as an annoyance to Al. Between the impersonation of Ed and his seemingly random knowledge of the Elrics, he didn't trust him very far. However, seeing as he hasn't really done anything, Al's pretty sure he's safe. Russel's been pretty nice to Al so far - putting up with his worry over Ed during the plague fiasco and staying with him during the night the last plague was supposed to take place. Al was incredibly relieved when Russel finally came back after being murdered - yay for not staying dead!
Winry Rockbell: Second most important person in Al's life! Winry's been a best friend to the Elrics since...um. Always. She's the one who's there to yell at them and beat them with a wrench when they start doing things that are idiotic even for them. All her violence just means she cares about them though, and Al's very aware of this fact. He does his best to keep her from the harsher aspects of their life, something that's a lot harder to do now that they're in camp.
Sagara Sousuke: Al thinks Sousuke's a good person, even with his apparent fondness for sharing his arsenal with Ash of all people. They may disagree on some things, but Al can understand where Sousuke's coming from considering all the time he spends with the military of his own world.
Izumi Shion: WTF. Al doesn't get Izumi at ALL. The guy goes and shoots him and a bunch of other people for fun, then turns around and apologizes - but doesn't really show regret for liking doing it - and then starts worrying about his panda. He also likes Ash a lot. So. Al's incredibly confused by the guy and tries to talk to him when he can in an attempt to gain at least some kind of understanding of why he is the way he is.
Katou Masaru: Hasn't met.
Kurono Kei: Hasn't met.
Nishi Jouchirou: Al only knows Nishi vaguely, really. He met him while Nishi was attempting to torment Hiruma. This oddly won him bonus points, as Al disliked Hiruma a great deal - possibly even hated him. He's aware that Ishida dislikes him though and has enough respect for him to keep a wary view of Nishi as well. Also, Nishi managed to cause Al physical pain when he tried to steal his heart during the magical girl epidemic. Al fears him somewhat because of this, but isn't aware that he's a dangerous person even without evil magical girl powers. He does know Ari's afraid of him as well, and learned of Nishi tormenting him from Ishida. He dislikes Nishi a great deal and is likely to keep interactions short and to the point, but won't actively snark at or attack him unless he does something further to warrant it.
Athrun Zala: Al primarily knows Athrun through Anakin and is aware they're close friends. They've spoken a few times, and Al's impressed with his knowledge of technology and biology and would like to get to know him better in the future.
Cagalli Yula Athha: Al likes Cagalli a good deal. Before she learned of what alchemy did, she seemed very concerned that he'd be doing such backbreaking labor by himself. He appreciated the thought even if it wasn't needed. He also likes the peaceful ideals she stands for and would likely be willing to help as much as he can.
Dearka Elthman: Shot at Sakura while she looked like Crot. Admitted this was a mistake. All is cool now.
Heine Westenfluss: Primarily known through Uryuu. Al's fairly fond of Heine and thinks he makes good tea, but doesn't talk to him very often unless it's something concerning Uryuu.
Jona Roma Saran: Hasn't met.
Kira Yamato: Only knows him vaguely. They speak every now and then, and Al thinks he's a very kind person. Doesn't really know more than that though.
Lunamaria Hawke: Met once or twice. Doesn't have any real opinion.
Meer Campbell: Al adores Meer. He can relate to her desire to protect others, even if they support very different methods of doing so. She's sweet and friendly and is always trying to keep people happy, and it's just something Al really appreciates. He's rather protective of her and was very worried about the way she was acting when Dullindal arrived in camp. She's since gone back to being herself again though, so all is well again. Except that he'll be watching Dullindal.
Miguel Ayman: Hasn't met.
Rey Za Burrel: Murdered Russel. Al's never been very clear on the details of what happened, but is vaguely aware that Rey didn't mean to kill Russel in the first place. He appreciates the remorse Rey showed over the whole thing and has actually forgiven him for it, seeing as it was apparently an accident. He ignores him for the most part, but does try take notice when his friends are involved in something Rey's doing.
Rusty MacKenzie: Hasn't met.
Shinn Asuka: Shinn's a strange boy, but fairly nice. Al's not sure whether to be amused or concerned by his tendency to jump right to fighting/killing/etc as a solution to a problem though.
Tolle Koenig: Hasn't met.
Vino Dupre: Hasn't met.
Yzak Jule: Yzak shot Sakura once, but it eventually became clear that it was a case of mistaken identity on Yzak's part. He was very apologetic about the whole thing, so Al doesn't hold a grudge against him. He actually thinks Yzak's a pretty nice guy, though they don't talk very much.
Chang Wufei: Vaguely aware of. Thinks he's a good person.
Quatre Raberba Winner: Wanted to kill a sheep just for a violin string. Vaguely irritated by him, but hasn't spoken with him since he first arrived in camp, so.
Luna Lovegood: Only vaguely aware of.
Tom Riddle: . . . Al is never sure what to think of Tom lately. He knows that he and Ed have broken up - good. He also knows Tom cursed the camp twice, and in doing so came dangerously close to killing three people that Al cares very deeply for, along with getting Al cursed himself. Though Al doesn't care so much that he wound up cursed. He came very close to loathing Tom on a level close to Envy after the cursing, but tolerated him for Ed's sake. Then Tom went and broke Ed's heart somehow, and Al took to ignoring him even while Ed continued speaking to him. Not long after that, Tom used a truth serum on Anakin and Ed broke off contact - until Tom turned into a kid and Al brought him back to the cabin to look after him. No way was he going to just leave a kid like that out in the labs or camp in general by himself. He still doesn't talk to Tom very much now that he's grown again, but he does keep an eye out for him. He knows not to trust Tom any further than he can throw him, and he still has a fair amount of dislike for him, but he can't bring himself to just give up on him entirely, even if he isn't actively doing anything for him right now. [Augh, someone kick me into doing an essay on this later.]
Shokatsuryou Koumei: Only aware of through Ying. No real opinion.
Miroku: Hasn't met.
Greta: Doesn't talk to her much, but thinks she's just adoreable. Also - she's the adopted daughter of a good friend. Extra points!
Murata Ken: Al really only knows Murata through Ari. He thinks Mura's like a much calmer, more mature version of Ash.
Wolfram von Bielfield: Tiny loud moron, whut. Anyway, Wolfram's been pretty nice to Al. I'm not sure he was always aware that Al's a human - or even if he's aware of it right now. Whatever the case, Al thinks he's a good guy and considers him a decent friend.
Shibuya Yuuri: Al's really only aware of him through other members of the KKM cast. He gets the impression that Yuuri's a good guy, but somewhat frustrating for some reason.
Rinko Jerad: Hasn't met.
Robert Haydn: Only vaguely aware of. Thinks he's a bit creepy, but doesn't talk to him much at all.
Ueki Kousuke: ...very much like Ash. And also makes trees. Al's a bit unsure of what to make of him, but thinks he's a nice guy in general.
Himura Rikuou: Met once while Rikuou looked and acted like Elysia due to a halloween costume. No real opinion on him.
Kudou Kazahaya: Met once or twice. Thinks he's enthusiastic and nice.
Tetra: Hasn't met.
Lemina Ausa: Al's spoken with her a few times and, though he's vaguely aware she's a bit of a money fanatic, he thinks she's a genuinely nice person.
Aisaka Sayo: Hasn't met.
Evangeline A.K. McDowell: Al's spoken with her about the similarities between alchemy and the magic in her world. He thinks she's fairly nice and certainly interesting to talk to. He also hopes to meet her partner, Chachamaru, some day.
Hasegawa Chisame: Vaguely certain she was in some way tied to the deaths/revivals mentioned in the detectives' section, but again - no solid proof. He doesn't really take much notice of her now, though she does seem fairly nice in the instances that they do speak to each other.
Kagurazaka Asuna: Asuna seems like a genuinely nice person. Al's only spoken with her once, but his current impression is rather fond.
Nagase Kaede: Hasn't met.
Revolver Ocelot: Al doesn't even know his name, but already he dislikes him a great deal. Ocelot shot at him once [and missed] while he was a pikachu. The next time they met, Ocelot had just shot Ash in the foot. >| Al doesn't like him at all and wants him to stay far away from his friends.
Nishizono Tetora: Only vaguely aware of him through word of mouth. Thinks he's supposed to be a frightening fellow, but doesn't know him personally.
Okuzaki Akira: Hasn't met.
Suzushiro Haruka: Spoken with once or twice. Thinks she's very energetic and driven, but doesn't know much beyond that.
Aburame Shino: Hasn't met.
Akimichi Chouji: Thinks Chouji's an all around nice guy. So long as Chouji doesn't eat his squirrels.
Haruno Sakura: Al started out not liking her at all because of the way she treated Ash. Since then she's proved herself to be a kind person, if a bit violent, and has helped Al out a few times. An added bonus is Lee's devotion to her, and a promise Al made to him to look out for Sakura when he wasn't there.
Hyuuga Hinata: Met once or twice, I think. Doesn't know her very well, but his impression of her is one of a very timid but sweet girl.
Hyuuga Neji: Primarily knows him through Itachi. They've spoken a few times though, and Al's somewhat intimidated by him. He does think Neji's a generally good person.
Nara Shikamaru: Only vaguely aware of - no real opinion.
Rock Lee: They bonded over squirrels at first. Al respects Lee's determination to be the best at everything he does and the optimism he approaches every situation with. They actually don't talk much lately, but Al's still terribly fond of him.
Uchiha Itachi: Al's well aware of Itachi's homicidal past, but he hasn't seen Itachi be anything but nice or at least polite/civil to people at camp, so his opinion of him remains high. Itachi's helped him with a few things and made offers to help at other points. Al told Itachi of his armor body not long after Kabuto found out about him. There's been a bit of drift between them since Ed showed up and Neji and Itachi hooked up, but Al still thinks of him as a close friend.
Uchiha Sasuke: Al can ignore Sasuke's determination to kill Itachi. He understands the motivation behind it, and doesn't feel he knows enough about the situation to bother with talking him out of it. What he doesn't like is the way Sasuke's stabbed Ash on more than one occasion. Sasuke can stay the hell away from his friends.
Uzumaki Naruto: Despite openly disliking Itachi, Naruto hasn't shown any sign of wanting to attack him that Al has seen. That aside, Naruto seems like a friendly person who just happens to be on the energetic side. Al trusts him just enough to not feel uncomfortable making ninja weapons for him.
Yakushi Kabuto: Al still doesn't quite trust Kabuto, but doesn't have any reason to dislike him. If he has a choice he'll still go to see any doctor but him, but he can appreciate Kabuto's usefulness and is fairly sure now that he won't pull any tricks while he's treating someone.
Yamanaka Ino: Only knows vaguely. Thinks she's a nice person, but doesn't have any opinion beyond that.
Kaworu Nagisa: Hasn't met.
Rei Ayanami: Hasn't met.
Ari: Best friend number one! It's not too clear how they became such good friends - probably bonding over protecting Ash - but they are. Al would do almost anything for Ari, and strives to keep him out of harms way the same way he does with Winry. He knows Ari wants to help, but does his very best to keep him at a distance from serious problems like Envy. He doesn't really associate all Ari's frustration with him with that issue though, and really only gets irritated right back at Ari when he starts to complain about it. It's all rather complicated, but even with all their frustrations and spats with each other, Al sees Ari as someone who he just can't help but adore in platonic, brotherly fashion.
Linda: Hasn't met.
Rosalyn: Threatened to kill him while Stan was inhabiting his shadow. Also threatened to kill Ari before camp for the same reason. Al doesn't see her as a threat, but doesn't much like her either.
Stan:Enslaves various campers, but is really just annoying rather than dangerous. Al doesn't worry too much about him most of the time.
Sunako: Only vaguely aware of - no real opinion.
Ash: Best friend number two! Ash can grate on Al's nerves at times. Al's gotten used to it over time though, so it's not quite as much as in the past. It's pretty clear now that everything Ash does is with the best of intentions, even if it isn't exactly the most intelligent thing to do. Also, he's fairly certain now that Ash isn't at all as stupid as people think he is. Every now and then he does or says something with a clear shine of intelligence or insight. He's even managed to lecture Al on a few occasions. Al wants to always see Ash happy, because when Ash is actually sad there's obviously something very seriously wrong. So he's developed a very protective feeling towards Ash and defends him whenever he gets the chance. ... Also, Ash is of the opinion that they're married now. Al's generally accepted that he won't be able to talk Ash out of it and doesn't really mind. They're going to be going home to their own worlds, so the marriage, or whatever the hell it was, won't matter after camp. Also again, Ash thinks Al is his trainer now. It doesn't seem to have effected their relationship all that much though. Ash is just a bit more protective now.
James: Al is very amused by James. He seems like a child playing at being the bad guy, but comes off as being a very nice person.
Ibu Shinji: Hasn't met.
Inui Sadaharu: Al's not really sure what to make of someone who relies so completely on data the way Inui does. He finds him a bit stiff and even more adult-like than Uryuu.
Mizuki Hajime: Hasn't met.
Niou Masaharu: Only met once or twice, but Niou offered to teach him tennis. Therefore, nice guy.
Yanagi Renji: Met once or twice, but doesn't have much opinion on him. Made him a tennis court and fixed a book for him during Alchemy for the People Day.
Ranma Saotome: Only met once or twice I think? No real opinion.
Ryouga Hibiki: Met once or twice? - no real opinion.
Liaoyuan Huo: Vaguely aware of. No opinion.
Gertrude Yorkes: Hasn't met.
Molly Hayes: Thinks she's very sweet in the way most young girls tend to be.
Mizuno Ami: Isn't quite sure what to make of Ami most of the time. On one hand he thinks she's pretty condescending when she talks to him, but he's not sure he can really blame her for that given that he looks, oh, ten. Still, it's a point of frustration for him. But on the other hand he very much appreciates the help she gave to Ari and Ash after the PETA fiasco. For the most part he just tries to avoid her, but he wouldn't be against helping her out if asked.
Cho Hakkai: Hasn't met.
Son Goku: Thinks he's dense, but friendly enough.
Otomiya Haine: Al's really only talked to her once or twice, but gets the impression that she's a very sweet and energetic girl. Haine also adopted Al as her temporary little brother.
Heather Morris: Al's pretty fond of Heather, even if she may not actually be fond of him. He appreciates the things she's done for him even though he's fairly certain she's only doing it as way of repaying him for the alchemy he does. He figures, whatever her motivations may be, Heather's a kind person who deserves some thanks for the things she does.
Seymour: Hasn't met.
Amelia Wil Tesla Saillune: Hasn't met.
Filia ul Copt: Hasn't met.
Naga: Hasn't met.
Minashiro Soushi: Al doesn't like Soushi at all. While he wasn't directly involved in Russel's murder, he defended Rey's actions nonstop and spent a good deal of time throwing around accusations that people were out to get Rey or were even more dangerous than him. None of it made any sense to Al and really only made his brain hurt trying to understand the logic of it. He prefers to avoid Soushi when possible.
Wesley Crusher: Al's vaguely irritated by him. He didn't appreciate all the accusation being thrown around by him during the Fraud fiasco, and doesn't much care for the way he treats Ash. It's not a serious dislike though, just annoyance.
Anakin Skywalker: Anakin~ Al's doesn't even think about the incident where Anakin attacked the camp anymore. It's clear he regrets having ever done it, so Al holds no grudges. He's pretty fond of Anakin and tries to help him out where he can, whether it's with advice or alchemy.
Obi-wan Kenobi: Met once, but mainly knows him through Anakin. Al's really only aware that he's Anakin's master from the past. He's also somewhat annoyed that Obi-wan attempted to tell Ash what Envy was like, but headed that problem off. He doesn't really hold anything against Obi though since he was fairly new to camp still at the time and likely didn't know what Ash was like.
Momoko Hanasaki: Al thinks she can be a bit clueless about things at times, but she's a generally nice person. He's a bit concerned with the way she behaves around Izumi Shion though. Al approaches him knowing he's a dangerous individual and keeping that in mind, while it looks to him like Momoko approaches him assuming he wouldn't think of doing her any harm. He'll likely keep an eye on her where Izumi's concerned.
Tot: Tot reminds him of Stellar and is adoreable in her own right. Cute~~
Tsukiyono Omi: These two met when Omi asked Al to restore fabric for Ishida after Ash blew up the arts and craft hut. Al decided then that Omi was definitely a nice sort of person. Al's aware there's some hidden past to Omi, but he's not nosy enough to ask him outright about it. Generally the two tiptoe around the topic of the other's past instead. Also, though Omi was apparently close to Rey, he didn't attempt to defend his actions, though he does defend Rey himself, which won him more points with Al.
Elphaba Thropp: Only met her once or twice. He respects her devotion to her cause and agrees that it's terrible the way animals are being treated in her world. He wishes her luck in getting back to change things.
Toboe: Puppy! Though Al doesn't know that. He thinks Toboe's a great person and appreciates the times he's tried to help out.
Cal: Only vaguely aware of. Knows he has some sort of tie to Tom, but isn't too concerned about it. Generally doesn't notice him.
Azuma Kazuma: Who doesn't like Azuma? Al's met him once, and knows of him through Ari. He thinks Azuma's got a quiet sort of wisdom in the same way Ash does, and on top of that Azuma's just adoreable in general.
Hiei: Hasn't met.
Kurama: Hasn't met.
Kuwabara Kazuma: Al thinks Kuwabara's a bit of a dork, and he was pretty irritated that Kuwabara assumed he couldn't protect himself even though he doesn't get why Ari acts the exact same way when he does it to him. They eventually got distracted from that topic though and moved on to discussing their abilities - Al was pretty impressed with Kuwabara's sword. Also, they both like cats. Huzzuh for new friends~
Urameshi Yuusuke: Al and Yuusuke had a rocky start that involved misunderstandings over Ash and candy. They've since gotten past it thanks to Ari snarking at them both, and have worked their way up from a tense relationship to a much more natural one. Though they don't really talk much, Al has a good deal of trust and fondness for Yuusuke, especially after he agreed to hold a seance for Russel.
Alice: Another vaguely creepy person. Al's only spoken with her once, and also met the Cheshire cat briefly. He thinks they're both fairly nice, if a bit or a lot disturbing.
Anne Shirley: Who doesn't like Anne? She's sweet and kind and everything stereotypical nice girls are like. Al doesn't talk to her much, but wouldn't mind doing her a favor.
Honshou Chizuru: Met once or twice - no real opinion.
Ishida Uryuu: Ackpbbt Uryuu. Al adores him and will always hold some fondness for him. Uryuu was one of the very first people he met in camp, and Al's always thought he was a pretty nice guy - and he is. Al can't help but respect someone who's so willing to put themselves on the line for the sake of others. He just thinks Uryuu's a complete idiot about the way he does it. Lately, what with Uryuu attacking Yuusuke and having a Nishi-killing spree, Al's respect for him has dropped a good deal. He can't understand how Uryuu can just assume someone like Yuusuke, who's previously been a good guy except for going crazy once, is suddenly evil and going to rampage mindlessly because of what he happens to be. And he doesn't exactly approve of the blind killing either. >: Still, even with the disappointment in him, Al wouldn't hesitate to defend Uryuu if he ever needs it.
Yamada Hanatarou: Only met once - considers him useful since he seems to be a doctor.
Bob the Angry Flower: Talking flower. Whut. That's about the extent of Al's opinion on him.
Buffy Summers: Fellow disbanded-council member! Al thinks she's got a level head on her shoulders and holds a fair amount of respect for her. He doesn't talk with her too much though, so he's only distantly aware of her.
Nokoru Imonoyama: Helped Al with setting up the council. Nice guy.
Alex: Hasn't met.
Impulse: Awww~ Al loves Impulse, even if they don't talk much. He considers Imp a good friend and likes the energy and cheerfulness about him.
Starfire: Only vaguely knows. Al spoke with her at length about the Imperius Riddle had placed on her. He feels guilty for not really explaining what had happened to her, but doesn't really have an opinion on her specifically.
Kon-El: Kon looked out for him a bit here and there after Al had just gotten his body back. Al thinks he's a good guy, but really doesn't know him very well.
George: Hasn't met.
L: Al doesn't particularly like him. He's fairly well convinced that L was the cause of at least some of the deaths and revivals that occured before the save points were brought in [one of which involved Uryuu]. He doesn't have solid proof of it - just educated guessing that was made with the help of some investigation he and Uryuu conducted for a time. On top of that the deaths seem to have stopped for the most part, so Al just ignores him unless L does something that catches his attention.
Mello: Since he and Near are L's heirs, Al suspects they're somehow involved the deaths and revivals as well. The deaths seems to have since stopped though, so he generally doesn't notice them unless they do something that catches his interest. He likes Mello a bit more than Near, if only because it's easier to spot emotion in Mello. He doesn't have much more of an opinion than that.
Near: Since he and Mello are L's heirs, Al suspects they're somehow involved the deaths and revivals as well. The deaths seems to have since stopped though, so he generally doesn't notice them unless they do something that catches his interest. Al finds Near a good deal more intimidating than Mello. Near's more similar to Ishida emotionally, and knowing how difficult it is to deal with Ishida who actually likes him, it makes him somewhat wary of Near. When Near joined the alchemy class, Al was initially concerned he'd try to move ahead of the rest of the class. A tense talk reassured him though, but chances are he'll be watching Near a bit more closely than the rest of the students.
Raito: Met once, but really only knows him through Ying. Thinks he's a nice guy.
Raenef: Hasn't met.
Asok: Hasn't met.
Lady: Hasn't met.
Susan Sto Helit: Hasn't met.
Raistlin Majere: Only met once or twice during the Fraud fiasco. He didn't seem to place any blame on Al for the creation of the homunculus, which Al appreciated.
Da Qiao: Hasn't met.
Gan Ning: Hasn't met.
Huang Yue Ying: Al adores Ying, even if they don't talk much lately. He'd taken to following her around quite a bit before Edward returned to camp, and probably looks on her as something of an aunt.
Ling Tong: Hasn't met.
Lu Xun: Only vaguely aware of the new Lu - he new the previous one a bit better.
Sun Ce: Hasn't met.
Xiao Qiao: Hasn't met.
Megan: Hasn't met.
Elgala: Vaguely aware of - no real opinion.
Excel: Excel wants to take over the world. Also, she hit Al a lot when they first met. D: Recently though, Al's begun to recognize that she's a very good friend to Ash and appreciates that she looks out for him as much as she does.
Hyatt: Met once - vaguely aware that she has some kind of medical condition, but has no real opinion on her.
Hiruma Youichi: Vaguely wary. Al remembers the actions the first Hiruma took, and is somewhat concerned about what he might do now that he's returned to camp. He's fairly certain things won't go so badly again though.
Erk: Burned down the cabins once. Didn't seem intentional though, so no hard feelings. Doesn't really take notice of him though.
Kaylee Frye: She seems like a sweet girl. Al's only met her once though.
Simon Tam: Hasn't met.
Hanajima Saki: Hasn't met.
Sohma Hatsuharu: Hasn't met.
Sohma Hiro: Vaguely aware of. Didn't want to know Winry for some reason - whut?
Sohma Yuki.: Hasn't met.
Uotani Arisa: Hasn't met.
Edward Elric: Brother! Ed is the single most important person in Al's life - period. They've been together since always, and Al would go to any length for his brother, though he'll at least try to talk him out of some of the more dangerous things he may want to do - kind of. Exceptions are when Al thinks it's the right thing to do anyway, and then they come home in pieces.
Envy: ... Loathing. Pure loathing. Al's recently learned that it was Envy who murdered Hughes. And Envy attempted to break Ari by tormenting him in Al's form. While Al isn't the sort to try killing Envy himself, he doesn't mind at all if someone else feels up to the task. And he'd be more than willing to give Envy a good beating should the opporunity arise.
Fletcher Tringham: Al's relationship with Fletcher is driven primarily by guilt on his end of things. He can't quite get over the fact that he [And Ari and Omi] brought Russel back as a homunculus, and really has no idea how to go about making it up to Fletcher. He does his best to look out for him when he can. Though, recently, he's begun to be more annoyed by Fletcher. Fletcher attempted to kill Rey with a...voodoo cookie. While Al can understand the sentiment, he certainly isn't going to just gloss over someone attempting murder on someone who isn't Envy right in front of him. Bad Fletcher. >: Bad.
Russel Tringham: Russel started off as an annoyance to Al. Between the impersonation of Ed and his seemingly random knowledge of the Elrics, he didn't trust him very far. However, seeing as he hasn't really done anything, Al's pretty sure he's safe. Russel's been pretty nice to Al so far - putting up with his worry over Ed during the plague fiasco and staying with him during the night the last plague was supposed to take place. Al was incredibly relieved when Russel finally came back after being murdered - yay for not staying dead!
Winry Rockbell: Second most important person in Al's life! Winry's been a best friend to the Elrics since...um. Always. She's the one who's there to yell at them and beat them with a wrench when they start doing things that are idiotic even for them. All her violence just means she cares about them though, and Al's very aware of this fact. He does his best to keep her from the harsher aspects of their life, something that's a lot harder to do now that they're in camp.
Sagara Sousuke: Al thinks Sousuke's a good person, even with his apparent fondness for sharing his arsenal with Ash of all people. They may disagree on some things, but Al can understand where Sousuke's coming from considering all the time he spends with the military of his own world.
Izumi Shion: WTF. Al doesn't get Izumi at ALL. The guy goes and shoots him and a bunch of other people for fun, then turns around and apologizes - but doesn't really show regret for liking doing it - and then starts worrying about his panda. He also likes Ash a lot. So. Al's incredibly confused by the guy and tries to talk to him when he can in an attempt to gain at least some kind of understanding of why he is the way he is.
Katou Masaru: Hasn't met.
Kurono Kei: Hasn't met.
Nishi Jouchirou: Al only knows Nishi vaguely, really. He met him while Nishi was attempting to torment Hiruma. This oddly won him bonus points, as Al disliked Hiruma a great deal - possibly even hated him. He's aware that Ishida dislikes him though and has enough respect for him to keep a wary view of Nishi as well. Also, Nishi managed to cause Al physical pain when he tried to steal his heart during the magical girl epidemic. Al fears him somewhat because of this, but isn't aware that he's a dangerous person even without evil magical girl powers. He does know Ari's afraid of him as well, and learned of Nishi tormenting him from Ishida. He dislikes Nishi a great deal and is likely to keep interactions short and to the point, but won't actively snark at or attack him unless he does something further to warrant it.
Athrun Zala: Al primarily knows Athrun through Anakin and is aware they're close friends. They've spoken a few times, and Al's impressed with his knowledge of technology and biology and would like to get to know him better in the future.
Cagalli Yula Athha: Al likes Cagalli a good deal. Before she learned of what alchemy did, she seemed very concerned that he'd be doing such backbreaking labor by himself. He appreciated the thought even if it wasn't needed. He also likes the peaceful ideals she stands for and would likely be willing to help as much as he can.
Dearka Elthman: Shot at Sakura while she looked like Crot. Admitted this was a mistake. All is cool now.
Heine Westenfluss: Primarily known through Uryuu. Al's fairly fond of Heine and thinks he makes good tea, but doesn't talk to him very often unless it's something concerning Uryuu.
Jona Roma Saran: Hasn't met.
Kira Yamato: Only knows him vaguely. They speak every now and then, and Al thinks he's a very kind person. Doesn't really know more than that though.
Lunamaria Hawke: Met once or twice. Doesn't have any real opinion.
Meer Campbell: Al adores Meer. He can relate to her desire to protect others, even if they support very different methods of doing so. She's sweet and friendly and is always trying to keep people happy, and it's just something Al really appreciates. He's rather protective of her and was very worried about the way she was acting when Dullindal arrived in camp. She's since gone back to being herself again though, so all is well again. Except that he'll be watching Dullindal.
Miguel Ayman: Hasn't met.
Rey Za Burrel: Murdered Russel. Al's never been very clear on the details of what happened, but is vaguely aware that Rey didn't mean to kill Russel in the first place. He appreciates the remorse Rey showed over the whole thing and has actually forgiven him for it, seeing as it was apparently an accident. He ignores him for the most part, but does try take notice when his friends are involved in something Rey's doing.
Rusty MacKenzie: Hasn't met.
Shinn Asuka: Shinn's a strange boy, but fairly nice. Al's not sure whether to be amused or concerned by his tendency to jump right to fighting/killing/etc as a solution to a problem though.
Tolle Koenig: Hasn't met.
Vino Dupre: Hasn't met.
Yzak Jule: Yzak shot Sakura once, but it eventually became clear that it was a case of mistaken identity on Yzak's part. He was very apologetic about the whole thing, so Al doesn't hold a grudge against him. He actually thinks Yzak's a pretty nice guy, though they don't talk very much.
Chang Wufei: Vaguely aware of. Thinks he's a good person.
Quatre Raberba Winner: Wanted to kill a sheep just for a violin string. Vaguely irritated by him, but hasn't spoken with him since he first arrived in camp, so.
Luna Lovegood: Only vaguely aware of.
Tom Riddle: . . . Al is never sure what to think of Tom lately. He knows that he and Ed have broken up - good. He also knows Tom cursed the camp twice, and in doing so came dangerously close to killing three people that Al cares very deeply for, along with getting Al cursed himself. Though Al doesn't care so much that he wound up cursed. He came very close to loathing Tom on a level close to Envy after the cursing, but tolerated him for Ed's sake. Then Tom went and broke Ed's heart somehow, and Al took to ignoring him even while Ed continued speaking to him. Not long after that, Tom used a truth serum on Anakin and Ed broke off contact - until Tom turned into a kid and Al brought him back to the cabin to look after him. No way was he going to just leave a kid like that out in the labs or camp in general by himself. He still doesn't talk to Tom very much now that he's grown again, but he does keep an eye out for him. He knows not to trust Tom any further than he can throw him, and he still has a fair amount of dislike for him, but he can't bring himself to just give up on him entirely, even if he isn't actively doing anything for him right now. [Augh, someone kick me into doing an essay on this later.]
Shokatsuryou Koumei: Only aware of through Ying. No real opinion.
Miroku: Hasn't met.
Greta: Doesn't talk to her much, but thinks she's just adoreable. Also - she's the adopted daughter of a good friend. Extra points!
Murata Ken: Al really only knows Murata through Ari. He thinks Mura's like a much calmer, more mature version of Ash.
Wolfram von Bielfield: Tiny loud moron, whut. Anyway, Wolfram's been pretty nice to Al. I'm not sure he was always aware that Al's a human - or even if he's aware of it right now. Whatever the case, Al thinks he's a good guy and considers him a decent friend.
Shibuya Yuuri: Al's really only aware of him through other members of the KKM cast. He gets the impression that Yuuri's a good guy, but somewhat frustrating for some reason.
Rinko Jerad: Hasn't met.
Robert Haydn: Only vaguely aware of. Thinks he's a bit creepy, but doesn't talk to him much at all.
Ueki Kousuke: ...very much like Ash. And also makes trees. Al's a bit unsure of what to make of him, but thinks he's a nice guy in general.
Himura Rikuou: Met once while Rikuou looked and acted like Elysia due to a halloween costume. No real opinion on him.
Kudou Kazahaya: Met once or twice. Thinks he's enthusiastic and nice.
Tetra: Hasn't met.
Lemina Ausa: Al's spoken with her a few times and, though he's vaguely aware she's a bit of a money fanatic, he thinks she's a genuinely nice person.
Aisaka Sayo: Hasn't met.
Evangeline A.K. McDowell: Al's spoken with her about the similarities between alchemy and the magic in her world. He thinks she's fairly nice and certainly interesting to talk to. He also hopes to meet her partner, Chachamaru, some day.
Hasegawa Chisame: Vaguely certain she was in some way tied to the deaths/revivals mentioned in the detectives' section, but again - no solid proof. He doesn't really take much notice of her now, though she does seem fairly nice in the instances that they do speak to each other.
Kagurazaka Asuna: Asuna seems like a genuinely nice person. Al's only spoken with her once, but his current impression is rather fond.
Nagase Kaede: Hasn't met.
Revolver Ocelot: Al doesn't even know his name, but already he dislikes him a great deal. Ocelot shot at him once [and missed] while he was a pikachu. The next time they met, Ocelot had just shot Ash in the foot. >| Al doesn't like him at all and wants him to stay far away from his friends.
Nishizono Tetora: Only vaguely aware of him through word of mouth. Thinks he's supposed to be a frightening fellow, but doesn't know him personally.
Okuzaki Akira: Hasn't met.
Suzushiro Haruka: Spoken with once or twice. Thinks she's very energetic and driven, but doesn't know much beyond that.
Aburame Shino: Hasn't met.
Akimichi Chouji: Thinks Chouji's an all around nice guy. So long as Chouji doesn't eat his squirrels.
Haruno Sakura: Al started out not liking her at all because of the way she treated Ash. Since then she's proved herself to be a kind person, if a bit violent, and has helped Al out a few times. An added bonus is Lee's devotion to her, and a promise Al made to him to look out for Sakura when he wasn't there.
Hyuuga Hinata: Met once or twice, I think. Doesn't know her very well, but his impression of her is one of a very timid but sweet girl.
Hyuuga Neji: Primarily knows him through Itachi. They've spoken a few times though, and Al's somewhat intimidated by him. He does think Neji's a generally good person.
Nara Shikamaru: Only vaguely aware of - no real opinion.
Rock Lee: They bonded over squirrels at first. Al respects Lee's determination to be the best at everything he does and the optimism he approaches every situation with. They actually don't talk much lately, but Al's still terribly fond of him.
Uchiha Itachi: Al's well aware of Itachi's homicidal past, but he hasn't seen Itachi be anything but nice or at least polite/civil to people at camp, so his opinion of him remains high. Itachi's helped him with a few things and made offers to help at other points. Al told Itachi of his armor body not long after Kabuto found out about him. There's been a bit of drift between them since Ed showed up and Neji and Itachi hooked up, but Al still thinks of him as a close friend.
Uchiha Sasuke: Al can ignore Sasuke's determination to kill Itachi. He understands the motivation behind it, and doesn't feel he knows enough about the situation to bother with talking him out of it. What he doesn't like is the way Sasuke's stabbed Ash on more than one occasion. Sasuke can stay the hell away from his friends.
Uzumaki Naruto: Despite openly disliking Itachi, Naruto hasn't shown any sign of wanting to attack him that Al has seen. That aside, Naruto seems like a friendly person who just happens to be on the energetic side. Al trusts him just enough to not feel uncomfortable making ninja weapons for him.
Yakushi Kabuto: Al still doesn't quite trust Kabuto, but doesn't have any reason to dislike him. If he has a choice he'll still go to see any doctor but him, but he can appreciate Kabuto's usefulness and is fairly sure now that he won't pull any tricks while he's treating someone.
Yamanaka Ino: Only knows vaguely. Thinks she's a nice person, but doesn't have any opinion beyond that.
Kaworu Nagisa: Hasn't met.
Rei Ayanami: Hasn't met.
Ari: Best friend number one! It's not too clear how they became such good friends - probably bonding over protecting Ash - but they are. Al would do almost anything for Ari, and strives to keep him out of harms way the same way he does with Winry. He knows Ari wants to help, but does his very best to keep him at a distance from serious problems like Envy. He doesn't really associate all Ari's frustration with him with that issue though, and really only gets irritated right back at Ari when he starts to complain about it. It's all rather complicated, but even with all their frustrations and spats with each other, Al sees Ari as someone who he just can't help but adore in platonic, brotherly fashion.
Linda: Hasn't met.
Rosalyn: Threatened to kill him while Stan was inhabiting his shadow. Also threatened to kill Ari before camp for the same reason. Al doesn't see her as a threat, but doesn't much like her either.
Stan:Enslaves various campers, but is really just annoying rather than dangerous. Al doesn't worry too much about him most of the time.
Sunako: Only vaguely aware of - no real opinion.
Ash: Best friend number two! Ash can grate on Al's nerves at times. Al's gotten used to it over time though, so it's not quite as much as in the past. It's pretty clear now that everything Ash does is with the best of intentions, even if it isn't exactly the most intelligent thing to do. Also, he's fairly certain now that Ash isn't at all as stupid as people think he is. Every now and then he does or says something with a clear shine of intelligence or insight. He's even managed to lecture Al on a few occasions. Al wants to always see Ash happy, because when Ash is actually sad there's obviously something very seriously wrong. So he's developed a very protective feeling towards Ash and defends him whenever he gets the chance. ... Also, Ash is of the opinion that they're married now. Al's generally accepted that he won't be able to talk Ash out of it and doesn't really mind. They're going to be going home to their own worlds, so the marriage, or whatever the hell it was, won't matter after camp. Also again, Ash thinks Al is his trainer now. It doesn't seem to have effected their relationship all that much though. Ash is just a bit more protective now.
James: Al is very amused by James. He seems like a child playing at being the bad guy, but comes off as being a very nice person.
Ibu Shinji: Hasn't met.
Inui Sadaharu: Al's not really sure what to make of someone who relies so completely on data the way Inui does. He finds him a bit stiff and even more adult-like than Uryuu.
Mizuki Hajime: Hasn't met.
Niou Masaharu: Only met once or twice, but Niou offered to teach him tennis. Therefore, nice guy.
Yanagi Renji: Met once or twice, but doesn't have much opinion on him. Made him a tennis court and fixed a book for him during Alchemy for the People Day.
Ranma Saotome: Only met once or twice I think? No real opinion.
Ryouga Hibiki: Met once or twice? - no real opinion.
Liaoyuan Huo: Vaguely aware of. No opinion.
Gertrude Yorkes: Hasn't met.
Molly Hayes: Thinks she's very sweet in the way most young girls tend to be.
Mizuno Ami: Isn't quite sure what to make of Ami most of the time. On one hand he thinks she's pretty condescending when she talks to him, but he's not sure he can really blame her for that given that he looks, oh, ten. Still, it's a point of frustration for him. But on the other hand he very much appreciates the help she gave to Ari and Ash after the PETA fiasco. For the most part he just tries to avoid her, but he wouldn't be against helping her out if asked.
Cho Hakkai: Hasn't met.
Son Goku: Thinks he's dense, but friendly enough.
Otomiya Haine: Al's really only talked to her once or twice, but gets the impression that she's a very sweet and energetic girl. Haine also adopted Al as her temporary little brother.
Heather Morris: Al's pretty fond of Heather, even if she may not actually be fond of him. He appreciates the things she's done for him even though he's fairly certain she's only doing it as way of repaying him for the alchemy he does. He figures, whatever her motivations may be, Heather's a kind person who deserves some thanks for the things she does.
Seymour: Hasn't met.
Amelia Wil Tesla Saillune: Hasn't met.
Filia ul Copt: Hasn't met.
Naga: Hasn't met.
Minashiro Soushi: Al doesn't like Soushi at all. While he wasn't directly involved in Russel's murder, he defended Rey's actions nonstop and spent a good deal of time throwing around accusations that people were out to get Rey or were even more dangerous than him. None of it made any sense to Al and really only made his brain hurt trying to understand the logic of it. He prefers to avoid Soushi when possible.
Wesley Crusher: Al's vaguely irritated by him. He didn't appreciate all the accusation being thrown around by him during the Fraud fiasco, and doesn't much care for the way he treats Ash. It's not a serious dislike though, just annoyance.
Anakin Skywalker: Anakin~ Al's doesn't even think about the incident where Anakin attacked the camp anymore. It's clear he regrets having ever done it, so Al holds no grudges. He's pretty fond of Anakin and tries to help him out where he can, whether it's with advice or alchemy.
Obi-wan Kenobi: Met once, but mainly knows him through Anakin. Al's really only aware that he's Anakin's master from the past. He's also somewhat annoyed that Obi-wan attempted to tell Ash what Envy was like, but headed that problem off. He doesn't really hold anything against Obi though since he was fairly new to camp still at the time and likely didn't know what Ash was like.
Momoko Hanasaki: Al thinks she can be a bit clueless about things at times, but she's a generally nice person. He's a bit concerned with the way she behaves around Izumi Shion though. Al approaches him knowing he's a dangerous individual and keeping that in mind, while it looks to him like Momoko approaches him assuming he wouldn't think of doing her any harm. He'll likely keep an eye on her where Izumi's concerned.
Tot: Tot reminds him of Stellar and is adoreable in her own right. Cute~~
Tsukiyono Omi: These two met when Omi asked Al to restore fabric for Ishida after Ash blew up the arts and craft hut. Al decided then that Omi was definitely a nice sort of person. Al's aware there's some hidden past to Omi, but he's not nosy enough to ask him outright about it. Generally the two tiptoe around the topic of the other's past instead. Also, though Omi was apparently close to Rey, he didn't attempt to defend his actions, though he does defend Rey himself, which won him more points with Al.
Elphaba Thropp: Only met her once or twice. He respects her devotion to her cause and agrees that it's terrible the way animals are being treated in her world. He wishes her luck in getting back to change things.
Toboe: Puppy! Though Al doesn't know that. He thinks Toboe's a great person and appreciates the times he's tried to help out.
Cal: Only vaguely aware of. Knows he has some sort of tie to Tom, but isn't too concerned about it. Generally doesn't notice him.
Azuma Kazuma: Who doesn't like Azuma? Al's met him once, and knows of him through Ari. He thinks Azuma's got a quiet sort of wisdom in the same way Ash does, and on top of that Azuma's just adoreable in general.
Hiei: Hasn't met.
Kurama: Hasn't met.
Kuwabara Kazuma: Al thinks Kuwabara's a bit of a dork, and he was pretty irritated that Kuwabara assumed he couldn't protect himself even though he doesn't get why Ari acts the exact same way when he does it to him. They eventually got distracted from that topic though and moved on to discussing their abilities - Al was pretty impressed with Kuwabara's sword. Also, they both like cats. Huzzuh for new friends~
Urameshi Yuusuke: Al and Yuusuke had a rocky start that involved misunderstandings over Ash and candy. They've since gotten past it thanks to Ari snarking at them both, and have worked their way up from a tense relationship to a much more natural one. Though they don't really talk much, Al has a good deal of trust and fondness for Yuusuke, especially after he agreed to hold a seance for Russel.
