CANON
juiceboxtopped | ♥♥♥♥♥♥ | Rukia is one of Orihime's closest friends from home. Though they'd only known each other for a while, both risked their lives to save each other, and Rukia was one of the few people whose faith never wavered in Orihime. Orihime admires her bravery and beauty in equal turns, and trusts her very deeply, the closest out of their little band of six. Now that they're together in Adstring, she plans to make the most of that time.
iceandivory | ♥♥♥♥ | Orihime had always had a bit of a soft spot for Toushirou, but she's come to think of him as a younger brother during her time in the city. She wishes he'd stop getting himself into fights and maybe be a little more honest with himself sometimes. Subconsciously, she's a bit of a Shipper on Deck for him and Sasuke.
foundtheheart | ???? | Their relationship is probably the most complicated Orihime has ever experienced. They arrived at Adstring together, and have since formed a rather odd friendship, each looking out for one another from the corner of their eyes, so to speak. He's since graduated from "woman this, woman that" to "Orihime this, Orihime that".
peach_kabobs | ♥♥ | Orihime thinks Momo is a sweet girl, and there's a sort of unspoken understanding between them in regards to Aizen, both of them having suffered extensively at his hands. She finds her sibling relations with Toushirou really cute.
flashkitty | ♥♥ | Yoruichi was Orihime's first and only tutor, teaching her to summon the Shun Shun Rikka at will and helping her practice the basics of her techniques. She's another woman Orihime is in awe of, the combination of her strength, resolve, and beauty comprising the type of person Orihime wants to be. They haven't spoken much in Adstring, but she saw that little video post with Urahara... D:
mere_shopkeeper | ? | This one is a mystery to Orihime- when she discovered her powers, he showed her the world she'd be entering, and although he was responsible for Rukia's near-execution, he got them into Soul Society and seemed sincere in his apology. At first, she saw him exactly as he projects himself, an eccentric shopkeep with a few ties to the spiritual world. However, after he told her to stay out of the fight against Aizen, she's had her doubts about him, and still isn't entirely comfortable talking with him.
bunny_flower | ♥ | Unohana is someone Orihime sees as kind of an aunt figure- not really close enough to be a friend, sister, or mother, but someone she knows she trusts. They have a common understanding as healers, and Unohana is also one of her closest links to Seiretei. Orihime's looking to start a clinic of her own in hopes of alleviating some pressure from her in caring for the injured/new arrivals.
taichou_tb | ♥ | He allowed Orihime and Rukia to train under his watch in canon, so she finds him a nice enough man, though they haven't spoken much in Adstring.
law_of_reason | XXX | Soul Society was all Orihime needed to know that she does not like this guy. He hurt Uryuu immensely, and has shown himself to be equally cruel in Adstring. She avoids him, but is always half-expecting him to do something less than pleasant.
creepy_but_cute | X | She knows he's Aizen's right-hand-man, and that alone is enough to keep her well away. Having never really spoken to him, she doesn't know much else about him, but she'd picked up on something between him and Rangiku.
smrtrthanyou | X | While she's more open than many others about Hollows, Ulquiorra's warned her that Szayel delights in harming others and has no respect for life, something she can't let by. She's very much inclined to avoid her if he returns the favour and doesn't hurt anyone.
ADSTRINGENDUM
blueeyekamikaze | ♥♥♥♥♥ | Hiiro was one of the first people Orihime met in Adstring, and she's been living with him at the Gundam Warehouse ever since. Over time, they've become very good friends, and he has permission to call her by first name, though his militaristic demeanor means he doesn't do it often. She knows that he's a hardened soldier, even though they're the same age, and she does her best to make him happy and show him there's more to life than loading guns and snapping salutes. He's warmed up some with her attentions, and she's actually closer to him than quite a few of her canonmates. They're now living alone together with a big black lab and a plethora of cats. Hiiro was her first kiss, but as her death penalty, Orihime's forgotten it ever happened.
marsfireignite | ♥♥♥ | Rei reminds Orihime very much of Tatsuki with her spunk and take-no-crap attitude. She enjoys the time they've spent together, and hopes to become closer friends.
buntails | ♥♥♥ | Usagi is probably Orihime's doppelganger from another universe or something, even if neither of them realize it. They're very similar in personality and thought process, and thus understand each other very well. They haven't known each other super-long, but they've become fast friends and already helped each other through some tough times.
general_mustang | ♥♥ | As the leader of "Team Good Guys", Orihime's come to really respect him and his decisions, especially after the insanity of the past summer. Comparing him to Captain-Commander Yamamoto, she privately thinks that Roy would be a better leader for Soul Society, but that's neither here nor there. He doesn't think her fairies are weird, so that's a plus, too.
livebymysmile | ♥♥ | It's hard for Orihime to spend much time with him, since he seems to always be popping in and out of Adstring, but she thinks he's a fun guy to be around. He reminds her a little of Kon, if only in his enthusiasm, and she likes to see his friendship with Hiiro- both of them need someone from home to confide in, from what she gathers.
