She and Malik are the two Carnelians he's most attached to, which is something he will express but never verbally explicitly. A lot of that is just because they've been there for a stable period of time and they talk oftenish (sorry Obi you are below these two because Shiny's sleep schedule does not mesh with yours), but he likes that she has focus. It's gotten to the point when he's upset with her, it's usually more "why are you screwing up when you could be doing better" or dislike for something she's doing... rather than outright dislike of her. He sees her as a kid, like he sees the rest of Carnelian, but uhhh "my kid" rather than most of the rest of people in Aather who are "someone else's problem." She'll never shift sideways into "friend/peer," but that doesn't mean he likes her less, it just means he likes her differently.

Do you have anything you want to see Carnelian do, team-development-wise?
