[OOC] Relationship Meme
Please leave a comment if you're curious about what Lemina thinks about your character.
Heart Rating Scale
You couldn't pay me to stand you. Get out of my sight!
You must have done something unforgivable if Lemina hates you this much. This relationship is probably damaged beyond repair.
Worthless. I don't want anything to do with you!
Interactions with you leave a terrible taste in Lemina's mouth. If you're willing to break your back to work for her forgiveness, you might just get it, but you've got a long way to go before Lemina will ever consider you a friend.
1 S. Ugh. How annoying!
Lemina doesn't hate you. Much. But she certainly doesn't like you. There's still hope for you to become her friend, but you're pointed in the wrong direction right now.
10 S. Well, I'll take it, but...
Either Lemina hasn't met you yet, hasn't interacted with you much or you've somehow managed to leave no impression on Lemina, good or bad, in all of your interactions with her.
100 S. Hey, want to be friends?
The beginnings of what could be a good relationship. You may not be particularly special to her, but she'll greet you by name and will do small favors for you if you ask her. If you'd like her to do a larger favor, though, it'll cost you!
1,000 S. Of course I'll loan you five bucks!
If Lemina were to ask to name her friends, you would easily jump to mind. She cares about you and probably frets a little for your well-being. If you want to spend time with her, just ask, and she'll be there. Most favors are now free.
10,000 S. You can always count on me!
A very close and precious friend. She would have trouble charging you for any request, no matter how large. And she might be starting to trust you in turn If you asked her, she would probably share some of her more private thoughts and feelings with you.
100,000 S. I don't deserve a friend as good as you...
This is the most Lemina can love you while still keeping it platonic. She will not hesitate to loan you money, or share her deepest thoughts and feelings, no matter how heavy they are -- and there's nothing that she wouldn't help you shoulder, either. She definitely admires you, and might even harbor a small crush.
1,000,000 S. If only you knew how precious you are.
This relationship has definitely started going above and beyond the platonic level. Not only does she trust and respect and admire you, but Lemina has a crush on you! There's still room for doubt, though, so don't be surprised if she shies away, especially if you don't have money or magic.
Priceless. I'd give up everything for you.
By this point, there is no more room for doubt. Lemina has a stronger relationship with you than with anyone else in the world, and there's no one else she would rather be with. She is completely in love with you, would gladly marry you, and might already be thinking about starting a family with you. Go ahead and take her, she's all yours.

Hiro
"I believe in your dream, Lemina. I believe you have the strength and the courage to make it real. Someday, you will restore this place to its former glory. Someday, the Magic Guild of Vane will once again be the center of this world. And someday, everyone will know that it was your vision which made it all possible."
The greatest hero ever. He taught me to believe in myself and my friends, and to never give up no matter how bad things look. I believed in him so strongly that I was willing to follow him in rising up against a god. And he was willing to do it all for Lucia's sake! Isn't it romantic? Someday, I hope to find a man like him.
Lucia
"I don't understand the people of this world very well...but I do know that you are wonderful for trying to carry out your given duty."
A beautiful, mysterious woman (goddess?) from the Blue Star. At first she seemed like a total space case, but she's slowly become more human. I would love to have magic as powerful as hers.
Ruby
"We're all here for you, Lemina. Now let's go save your mom from that floating fatty!"
A baby red dragon. Not a cat! I miss her snarky comments. She was the funniest... except when she was making fun of ME!
Ronfar
"There's no shame in being the only member of the Magic Guild! There are certain situations where being the only member can be quite pleasant, in fact. Think of it this way. When you have nothing, you have nothing to lose. All you can do is win!"
A mega-sleazy pervert who loves drinking and gambling. But he's surprisingly wise, and his healing is top-notch! I hate to admit it, but the rest of the team couldn't live without him. Literally!
Jean
"I'll join you as a member of the Guild...that is, if you'll have me. I'll support your dream any way I can, because that's what friends do for each other!"
The truest friend anyone could ever ask for. Strong and beautiful, with the warmest heart. I admire her a lot... she's like the big sister I never had!
Leo
Used to chase Hiro and Lucia all across Lunar, and then... discovered a secret love of party masks and switched to our side? Something like that, it's complicated. But he's actually a pretty cool guy when he's on our side. Kind of a dork, though.
Miria
My mother, the only family I have. I love her more than anyone. If she's ever in danger, I would give my own life to save her.
Borgan
"Geh, heh, heh, heh, heh... I find your manner so...I don't know... delicious. You are always so hell-bent on changing others. Perhaps you should consider changing yourself."
I hate him. I've always hated him, and I always will. But... my mother says he's a reflection of myself. So I'm trying to give him a new chance. It's the least I can do, given that my reckless behavior almost led to him throwing his life away. I'll never let him hook up with my mother, though!
Ramus
"If you keep selling off parts of the Guild, you'll eventually run out of stuff to sell. However, if instead you made a bunch of magic-imbued items, they could become top-ranked, brand-name products. How does that sound?"
My first friend. And my first boss. And my teacher in finances. And the one who loaned my mother the money she needed to keep the Guild. Needless to say, he's mega-important to me! People have said he likes me as more than a friend, but... he's more like family to me than anything else.
Tio
"It will hurt! I can't put you through that much pain! If I were a better priest, or if there was a statue, then I could do this painlessly... but... I'm so sorry!"
Hopeless, utterly hopeless. He's a priest who came to Vane to try talking me into allowing Althena's Chosen to build a sanctuary there. Yeah, right! Why would we need one of those when Statues of Althena heal you for free?! Anyway, he followed me around like a lost puppy for a while. Has no confidence, apologizes way too much and is a bit of a klutz. If only he would stop worrying about what he can't do and started making the most of what he can...
Morris
"You're the one making things that randomly explode! Maybe before thinking about how to restore Vane, you should work on making magic items that don't kill you!"
Borgan's nephew. He's surprisingly smooth... and oh, fool that I am, I fell for his act! I didn't want to admit it, but I fell hard for this loser, so much that I didn't even care that he didn't have magic. And then, when he revealed he had just been leading me on, I had every intent of blasting him with the most powerful fire magic I could cast. At least that necklace he gave me sold for a high price!

Shinpachi
"I would never show this to her. Or to anyone else, really... it's a bit embarrassing. It's both my greatest pride and my greatest shame, really. But you... I wanted to show you. Because you understand. You're... the first person who understands. The first person to see me for more than a pair of glasses... to make me feel like I have a strength.
... Lemina-dono is my best friend. My most precious person."
A resilient samurai and a sucker for a pretty face. Can you believe when I first spoke with him, I ended up shouting death threats? But in what feels like no time at all, he's become the best friend I've ever had. Okay, so maybe we still fight now and then, but we have just about everything in common, and he's already pledged his whole-hearted support to my dreams. He's a bit of a sucker and he sells himself short, so I've made it mission to convince him of his own value as a person. Because he does have a lot of value. His strength, his bravery, his compassion, his selfless devotion to his friends... in a way, he reminds me a lot of Hiro! If only he had magic...
Katsura
Shinpachi's friend who seems to live in his own world. I don't know why I still try to follow what he's talking about. He can be mega-amusing, but he can also be a mega-headache. He's convinced that I'm Shinpachi's "love interest", and I don't know what I can do to get that idea out of his head.
Gintoki
Shinpachi looks up to this guy a lot. Even though he knocked me out and tried to claim Shinpachi's bounty instead, I think I can understand why.
Tae
Shinpachi's evil older sister. I think she wants to kill me. Her cooking is mega-lethal.
Kamui
Another person from Shinpachi's world, but I hesitate to call him his friend. A jerk at best. A killer driven by bloodlust at worst. I think he'd benefit from a lesson from Jean.
Sakamoto
From Shinpachi's world. Mega-pervert.
Brief
He seems weak and cowardly. But he's a ghost hunter! He must be useful somehow! Still, I'm not sure what Shinpachi was thinking when he recruited him for the Guild...
Panty
There's just no excuse for an angel to act this way. No excuse!
Stocking
I can't believe what passes for an angel! This tramp is creeping all over Shinpachi! And she wants me to stay away from him?! Forget it!
Marisa
Finally! A guild recruit with actual magic, and who's helping raise funds to boot! She and I are going to be the best of friends. I can already tell!
Patchouli
She teaches magic at the high school! And her power is astounding! Oh, I really hope she thinks I'm doing well!
Kaguya
A real, live princess. I'm mega-jealous. She seems okay, but I don't really approve of her money-making methods.
Sakura
I can see why Shinpachi is friends with this girl, easily! She's kind, but don't let that make you think she's soft. She has a great head on her shoulders, and a real knack for organizing charity balls.
Killer Bee
A fantastic poet! Or at the very least, he's a lot of fun to talk with.
Kurama
This guy? Is as mega-cool as they come! He helped me win a mega-expensive date from a date auction... well, okay, it was just Shinpachi, but he still shelled out a lot of credits to help! I definitely want to get to know him better, and maybe make it up to him somehow.
Marie
A teacher who can shapeshift into a hammer! She seems incredibly kind. I wonder why she was trying so hard to find a date for her friend?
Renge
A girl born with great wealth to her name... and who has reclaimed that wealth through her own hard work here on the Thor. I'm seething with jealousy, but at the same time... if I can make friends with her, maybe she'll help me make my way to the top, too!
Cielo
Roommate. He seems pretty friendly. I'm not sure if I should get a pet fish with his cat around...
Finland
Roommate.
Lambdadelta
Roommate.
Minako
Previous roommate.
Jace
Previous roommate.
Gon
Previous roommate.
Kairi
Previous roommate.
Riku
He was bumming in my room for a bit. I didn't mind that... but I totally minded how he turned down my offer to join the Guild! What's wrong with using magic in the open, anyway?
