Hello.
With my profiles now written and approved, I've realized that my previous relationship thread is woefully outdated and incomplete. The relationships I have established are, in many cases, obsolete, or in the case of my SI, absent. Not only that, but I failed to update it at any point.
With that in mind, I've decided to make a second thread to ensure that the relationships are up-to-date. I will hopefully be much more active with this thread than the previous one.
With that in mind, let's look at each of my characters.
Abhishek Panicker
“The distinguishing mark of man is the hand, the instrument with which he does all his mischief.”
- George Orwell, Animal Farm (1945).
- [+] Relationship Types
-
Loves: Abhishek, unfortunately, or more likely, fortunately, is both taken and loyal. As a result, I won't accept pitches for mutual crushes or relationships. If you, for some reason, want your character to have an unrequited crush on Abhishek, feel free.
Friends: Abhishek is loyal to his friends, who primarily exist in the Student Disaster Preparedness Organization or the Vanguard. This category will likely be pretty small but closely knit.
Acquaintances: Abhishek is pretty social, much to the detriment of society, so this category will consist of those he doesn't know very well or those for whom he has mixed or unsure feelings.
Adversaries: Abhishek is generally somewhat insufferable, and as a result, I expect him to have more foes than friends. This category is for those who he casually dislikes rather than seriously hates.
Enemies: Abhishek must have a lasting grudge against a person for someone to land here, which is difficult due to his relatively indifferent nature. I don't think this will be a large category, but feel free to pitch for it if you think it fits.

Corbin Azinger
“Someone who is determined to disbelieve something can manage to disregard an Everest of evidence for it.”
- George Will, Democrats Are Making Income Inequality Worse (2014).

Loves: Corbin probably won't have much in this department. He's not a romantic sort. I'll take pitches, but I don't expect to see any interest here.
Friends: Corbin's friends probably consist of other right-wingers or people involved in the school's athletic areas. Other than that, he's not too unpopular, so he probably has a good social status. Judgemental as he usually is, he holds his friends to a much lower standard. If you want to be in good graces, this is the place to be.
Acquaintances: Corbin doesn't go too far out of his way to be social, but there are still plenty of people who cross his path.
Adversaries: Corbin probably judges you heavily if you land in this area. This category is less reliant on specific events and more on character traits and personality.
Enemies: Corbin loathes the people here with a dislike greater than his usual level of judgment. Feel free to send me a pitch for why.

Donovan Lauer
“Tex looks at me and says 'There's no "I" in team!' I looked at Tex and say, 'There's not, but there's an 'I' in win!'”
- Michael Jordan, Hall of Fame Induction Address (2009).
- [+] Relationship Types

Loves: Donovan isn't the type to stick with one person for long, so this area probably consists of short flings or brief, turbulent relationships.
Friends: Donovan is a very social person. He's relatively laid back outside of athletics, so the requirements to be on good terms with him are pretty lax.
Acquaintances: Donovan doesn't think much about people outside of his sphere, so this is the apathy zone.
Adversaries: Donovan holds grudges, and his frustration is pretty easy to achieve. It's pretty easy to find yourself on the wrong side.
Enemies: Donovan feels that a person should pull their weight or get out of the way. He doesn't like picking up other people's slack, so idlers and quitters end up here.

Claire Haig
“The world, that understandable and lawful world, was slipping away.”
- William Golding, Lord of the Flies (1954).
- [+] Relationship Types
-
Loves: Claire is a self-insert, and as such, I don't feel comfortable putting her in a relationship or having her crush on fictional characters.
Friends: Claire is introverted and shy, but she loves and appreciates the friends she has. She derives her connections from mutual hobbies.
Acquaintances: Claire probably doesn't have strong connections to many people, owing to her status as a perpetual outsider and her relatively recent arrival in Salem.
Adversaries: Claire hates when people go out of their way to hurt others. If you're rude and insensitive without any irony, you likely find yourself here.
Enemies: Claire has a history of being ostracized, and those who do it will invariable arrive at a place of her loathing.
