CHARACTER RELATIONS
nico minoru
"I think if you don't become an evil overlord, maybe you can go back to school and become a shop teacher."
Leader of the Runaways and Victor's first love. they've since broken up but remain on good (if not tense terms). Still has feelings for her, in a much more subdued, shamed way a guy might have after he cheats on said lady with Lillie Spieler. Respects Nico down to ever fiber optic cord of his being, and was REALLY REALLY HAPPY when their leader arrived in New Moore. Working at being friends with her again, but knows deep down he's messed up things real bad between them.
notes-
• leader of the runaways, "dad"
• do not piss her off unless you wanna be an amphibian
• #2 lady in his life (Marianella will always be #1)
karolina dean
"At the risk of making this weirder than before, I am pretty sure you got your pubescent roommate all hot and bothered."
If Nico is the surrogate dad of the group, Karolina is definitely the mom. While he and Xavin don't get along much (read: at all), Victor has a super soft spot for Karolina. The two often form an unlikely alliance of mercy and high morals in light of all the awful shit that surrounds them. They are definitely the more peaceloving members, even though Karolina's a great deal more laid back than this high-strung cybrorg. He wishes she wouldn't keep making him cook gross vegan dishes though.
notes-
• has the worst husband ever
• unexpectedly fierce at boggle
• vegan pozole is not that terrible
molly hayes
"You are the lamest little brother ever. I want a new one."
While Molly serves as the little sister to the rest of the group, she's insistent she's Victor's "big sister". Molly's strength is the only power that could take down Victor if he went rogue, so she served as his babysitter from his early days in Runaways. Now that Victor is a dedicated member of the team, their relationship is a lot better, though Victor constantly has to enforce guidelines on Molly's behavior and troublemaking (so he doesn't get in trouble with Nico!) Victor is super protective of Molly and would easily fry anybody who tried to hurt her.
notes-
• 1/2 of the baby sister (big sister?) brigade
• cheats at board games!
• alternates as babysitter/babysat-ee
nathan young
"Hey, fuck you! You're the suspicious one here! Always cooking and looking after the foetuses on this island. I'm just trying to prove myself to be the decent bloke I am. Now fuck right off."
Easily one of the top 10 most obnoxious people on the island, Nathan's found himself a best buddy in Victor. Although they had initial disagreements about homicide, Victor put all that aside to murder Nathan multiple times during his stint as Victorious. After that Victor tried to redeem Nathan but being super nice, and somehow they both gt too used to hanging around with each other to fight it. Nathan thinks he is the older brother, when it's really Victor who feels like he's teaching all the lessons. Victor thinks of Nathan as a closer friend than he's had in along time, even if Nico argues he's only a "replacement Chase".
notes-
• underage drinking enabler!!
• saved new moore residents from victorious
• better buddy than chase tbh :-"
equius zahhak
"D --> Yes, continue to put me in my place D --> Perhaps this arrangement will work out after all"
ugh. The roommate. Equius adheres to the blood caste system his planet is so fond of, and Victor was in no real hurry to replace the racist member of their team. Antagonistic relationship, although Equius's love for uh robotics makes things extra weird. Luckily they interact a great deal less thanks to Nepeta living next door.
notes-
• gross
• disgusting
• no way he is twelve that kid is built like a TANK
karkat vantas
"YEAH, YOU'RE ALWAYS HELPING PEOPLE. IT'S LIKE YOU HAVE A FUCKING HELPFULNESS DISEASE."
While Victor originally dismissed Karkat as "an asshole," he was forced amend that fact when it was clear the trolls were still preteens. After Victorious wrecked havoc on New Moore, Victor worked to make up for it with Karkat as well and the two have become friends. Victor's stubborn moral compass and Karkat's perpetual rage issues tend to create a far share of disagreements between them, but the cyborg is willing to give this kid the benefit of the doubt.
notes-
• auspistice between karkat and nathan (??)
• weirdly isn't bored by hearing about troll relationships. yet.
• holy shit did karkat just call nathan a "pendejo"
vriska sekret
"This is a face you can trust."
Initially met each other when Vriska tried to manipulate puny humans and hit a brick wall with Senor Cyborg. Victorious expressed SOME kind of interest in her, but Victor swears it was nothing red so knock it off, Karkat! Invited to family dinners and game nights, Victors got a soft spot for trolls with mom issues who love tabletop games. Even if she is a LARPer (too nerdy for HIM). When Vriska was aged down to a grub, Victor carried her around in the hood of his sweatshirt- a sweatshirt that has mysteriously gone missing!!
notes-
• d&d partner (coolest people on the island, i know)
• self-esteem issues?
• or maybe just not many friends
jenny
"quote"
Jenny has been nothing but nice to Victor, which makes him 1000x more awkward around her. This is combination of Jenny being really, really, really pretty and her efforts to subdue Victorious during that fun time for everyone. Jenny easily forgave Victor when he was back to normal (even brought over some pizza!), but victor is slow to put the past behind them. Also, did I mention shes really pretty, it's hard getting a full sentence out around this chick. No idea how Nathan does it.
notes-
• gorgeous
• prettiest girl on the island, hands down
• nathan there is no way you got this give up
john egbert
"you are not dead, vic! you are the most alive and coolest cyborg i know."
John is such a good, honest kid it makes the fact his best friends with Karkat... really confusing. either way, Victor thinks John's the best of the best when it comes to kids on new moore. Both spend entirely too much time at Karkat and Nathan's apartment, and victor has started to bring over magic the gathering cards to teach John and other varieties of nerd things (no he will not watch Con Air).
notes-
• d&d partner (ARENT YOU JEALOUS)
• only boy molly is ever allowed to date
• or klara
tim drake
"quote"
Victor and Tim had a run in over the Midnight Channel and haven't really made up. Vic understand Tim's a good guy and didn't completely mean the things he said, but first impressions leave their mark on this guy. Still, he's friends with Steph, so how bad could he be? Kinda uptight- and coming from Victor, that means something.
notes-
• bullied kids bout their dead parents
• not actually a bad guy
• too bad victor holds grudges
steph brown
"I think it adds an interesting angle! 'Nice to meet you, I'm Steph Brown, and I'd never married a 13 year-old before I came to New Moore!' Boom, sky-high levels of interest."
Did I say Jenny was the prettiest girl on the island? I mean Steph. Steph is definitely all kinds of gorgeous and Victor doesn't even like blondes. She's also sort of a super hero, maybe? Or he dreamed that. The point is she's really nice and pretty and cool and victor you're being kinda ho.
notes-
• maybe kissed karolina?
• excellent dude-lady
• wait so did he dream the super hero thing?

sollux captor
"ii gue22 maybe later on iif you 2tiill need iit, ii can help fiigure 2omethiing out for you. two 2hiitty head2 put together are always better than one and all."
Karkat's buddy, a master coder who can apparently hear the dead? Better not dwell on that sort of stuff. He and Victor can be the computer nerds of the island, through that kid's lisp definitely makes him the nerdier of the two.
notes-
• ace coder
• designed pesterbums or whatever it's called
• someones got to fix that lisp..
eridan ampora/orpharner dualscar
"quote"
In the age up/age down plot take dos, Dualscar shot and killed Victor. No hard feelings, but don't expect Eridan getting an invite to the family dinners. Like, ever.
notes-
• SHOT
• HIM
• !!!!!!!!
