Apprentice Malon  Main six / L.I relationships

I was possessed by inspiration and im about to make it everyone elses problem shjdjfhsdhf. but Here’s Mals relationships with major and minor characters, excluding the Arcana.

Asra:  Best friends. Fellow goofballs, They both can go on their odd way with no question from the other. Their vibes just flow well together. Asra is happy to try and teach mal a little more about using magic, and Mal is happy to help man the shop while Asra’s out. She doesnt question his decisions often, assuming that he, like herself, just has his reasons for what and how he does.

Nadia: Tentative Romance. Nadia didnt understand Mal at first. Malon was unrefined, distracted, and hard to comprehend often. But with time, Nadia came to understand Mals hidden language. The why’s to her whats, the roundabout ways things made sense to her, and, how in her own way Mal was still helping, even if Nadia wasnt seeing up front results. It took some time, and many late nights opening up to each other. Likewise, Mal at first struggled with understanding Nadia, with accepting the finer lifestyle. She truly began to bond with Nadia when they came to an understanding about the deeper aspects of eachother, that Nadia was more than money and style, that she was adventurous, creative, intelligent, and incredibly strong, inside and out.

Muriel: Muriel wasnt a fan of Mal at first. Mal was too hands on, too energetic, too much. Her background in the coliseum didnt help much either, despite Asra’s initial thought that maybe it was something they could relate with together. They truly began to get along when Asra’s interventions lessened, letting them adjust to each other naturally.It also helped that Mal got along well with his chickens, and that she responded well to local wildlife. The two of them bonded the most over nature, over herbs and creatures, especially once Mal understood that she had to calm herself a little more around Muriel. Mal tends to relax and open up around Muriel, feeling free of judgement despite his grumpy disposition.

Portia: These two were on special wavelength almost immediately. The moment they began their shenanigans together, the two of them were tight as crossed fingers. Blatantly affectionate, goofy, and curious together, whether Mal romances Nadia, Portia, or the both together, Mal and Portia build a strong bond together. Theres a special tenderness between the two of them, a sort of affectionate calm that theyre allowed to have in private, whether its cuddling at Portias home, talking together in the library, or in the garden, where Mal is making up names for every plant despite knowing each one by name. It gets a laugh, and thats what matters~

Julian: For a while, Malon didnt know how to feel about Julian. Picking up weird vibes between him and Asra, Mal had mixed feelings for a bit. However, upon getting to know him more personally (thanks to a chance meeting at the tavern and a night of drinking, revelry, and shenanigans) Malon and Julian came to be actually decent friends~ She took exceptional interest in his understanding of medicine and science, and his recounting of the plague, and caught him off guard with rather insightful theories about the plague. Most often their time together is spent at the Rowdy Raven, talking, drinking, and most definitely embellishing stories for eachother.

Lucio: Catch these hands, goat man. Okay but truly....Malon is not a fan of him. Never is Mal more contradictory, insufferable, and difficult than when interacting with Lucio. While she not privy to his personal backstory, no matter which route you take with her, she understands that a lot of pain in the people she cares about has been caused by him, and she does not have an interest in redeeming him.

Bonus Round

-Faust: Baby girl. baby. Mal is gonna smooch this little snake. 

-Morga: Mal kinda has a crush on her, in the way one just really gayly admires someone while having no wish to try romancing them. She admires the strength and the straight forwardness of her. Mal is most likely to behave, becoming more honest and straightforward herself in the presence of Morga

-Valerius: oh this man is fucked. He has no issue upending a wine glass all over her, she has no issue dumping the contents of a plate in his lap.

-Volta: Even Mal struggles to understand where all that food goes. More than anything, she’s impressed, but something about Volta still unsettles her.

-Vulgora: Another “catch these hands on sight”. Vulgora activates fight or flight in Mal, but unfortunately She’s more Fight than flight, and she’s about to try making it Vulgora’s problem.

-Valdemar:  Valdemar also unsettles Mal, but her want to learn what they know tends to overpower her apprehension, to their annoyance. There's a part of valdemar that appreciates a curious mind, but nowhere near enough to ever build any form of partnership or long-term interaction between them.

-Vlastomil: Too many worms, even for ‘one with nature’ Malon. He holds the sense of rot and sickness, and like the other courtiers, he brings with him an unsettling feeling that puts Mal on edge.

Other Mc’s:  I dont know, why dont you tell me? 👀👀
