Peony's kind of fond of Fiore mostly because if you're lucky, you can get hilarious reactions out of her. He's pretty vicarious in that respect; if he can rile you or get unusual behaviour out of you he's likely to like you ever the more for it. Fiore was polite and friendly and Generally Helpful and then he joked at her about... man something, I forget what, and suddenly received this very slight sidelong glare or pout combo and he decided that yeah that was awesome. It's all about pushing people out of their normal routines.
[laughs!] See, the funny part? Is that awhile ago, I realized that Peony sort of hits Fiore's Shader pings. There's a whole emo backstory that doesn't apply, and Peony also cheats by having met Fiore while deaged, but the whole "cheerful good-natured person who touches people a lot and who outranks Fiore but they're friendly anyway" bit? Yeah. (This is why Fiore doesn't object when Peony drapes on her, by the way. That and me forgetting about it at first. But this works too!) Aaand it sounds like the relationship on Peony's side is sort of the same as it is on Shader's side! So. I am highly amused, and we totally need to thread more. ♥
Fuyuki's geared straight into one of Peony's prime interests in camp - find out about weird shit. Why not! Peony's amazed more kids don't do it, it's a prime chance and it's an awesome opportunity and those people who lock themselves away in cabins are insane although Chisame gets a free pass for being HILARIOUS about it. Peony would be worried since camp's probably been picked clean aside from really quite dangerous areas, but there's always someone to help and it's not like camp's terminally unpleasant, just temporarily so.
Peony still thinks Setsuna is pretty hilarious too, especially when he can yank a blush or other shaken reaction out of her (this is known as the Tsundere effect even though Setsuna magically failed at tsundereing LONG AGO).
* When he was younger, Nozomu liked making paper men chains, as intricate and weird as possible. Throwback from one of Rin's habits, helped to pass the time. It's a very occasional luxury nowadays.
* Peony's got a bit of an interest in entymology. It's pretty low-key but it's kind of fascinating to watch the meaning of words change. He puts it down to the politician that's there in him somewhere, but also because he can try and put Jade off by using a ridiculously obscure word.
* 'Somewhen' is a favorite.
* Kamina was pretty quiet as a kid until his father left him topside. Sure he thinks it was cool and all now and understands why, but back then when you're a little kid who's just picked his way through tunnels back to the village, then gotten your ass handed to you by the Elder, watched your tunnel get blasted and closed up with rubble, and been thrown in jail, that's pretty likely to set you up the belligerent.
