QUESTION MEME BECAUSE COOL KIDS (and debs) ARE DOING IT
For Nightingale, Diamond, Amy in court, and I guess anyone else you feel like bothering asking about.

Diamond -> Lace
Diamond really likes Lace! Other than Ivy, the Dawons she feels like she knows pretty well are Lace and Hydra, and Hydra is just a mess who needs infinite hugs, so she's sort of pegging Lace as Dawon's other adult besides Ivy. Since she does care about Dawon a lot, that is good in her view! And their earlier talks about wanting to help Ivy while she was in her depression made it so that she trusts Lace near-absolutely- basically on par with the rest of Tiamat (aside Ed). And I've spoken about it before that Diamond really doesn't have any difference between trusting and liking someone, so getting her to trust her that much means she really likes and cares for Lace.
Something I haven't really touched on before is how Diamond views teams- she doesn't, really, at all. Her shitty life at home has basically impressed on her that teams are bullshit- you have your Us and you have your Them, and Us is good and Them is neutral to bad. In her world, once she set out on her own, Us was only herself and Ivy, and Ivy was the only person she trusted/liked. She can be social and happy and nice with everyone else, but every Them is a potential enemy. That's how she's taking to Kyr, and it's making her surprisingly insular; she sticks to her Us and everyone else is a Them.
In Kyr, though, her Us has expanded a bit- now it's Tiamat, Dawon, and Aoko that are all Us, so she does like and care for all of them (Ed hovers somewhere in between Us and Them and it's intensely frustrating to her).
Nightingale -> Natalie
So that's an interesting relationship, because Nightingale pegged Natalie immediately as being similar to herself, and she normally hates people like herself- that's what has her hating Swan so much. But the judging and the sanity and the general good sense and actually reaching out to talk to her first all add up to a surprisingly good first impression. Need to talk more. DON'T WORRY THO SHE WON'T TELL ANYONE YOU SMILED.
reverse me!!!
