Hey there, I have seen this terrifying definitely sane child, and my children would definitely know Beelzebub Smith in some way, shape, or form:

Thomas Shaw would definitely hate Beelzebub with a fiery passion, not only because of Beelzebub's personality but because she is picking on his friend, Florida Riley. Unlike others, Thomas would most certainly try to snitch on Beelzebub, meaning she could have respect towards Thomas (maybe not that much, as he is a snitch). However, an alternative is shown in Thomas' profile, which states Thomas got in a fight with a teenager after they made fun of his sister, maybe Beelzebub is the person he fought against?

Another enemy: Chester Mullivan! He hates people like Beelzebub since they make him angry, and he has been trying hard to not be angry. Beelzebub would know about Chetser's massive sophomore fight, and I think Beelzebub could respect Chester, but definitely not the other way around.

Kaede Miller would have heard of Beelzebub and attempted to stay away because of how scary she is. Fortunately for Kaede, she is not boring whatsoever, and Beelzebub would hopefully not try to mess with Kaede.

Lastly, Samuel Burkholder... a pal! Samuel is a weird mix of counter-culture from his old Amish life and also embracing culture the new tech he is finding. He could be a gang member in crime since Samuel's family is broke and Samuel would want money to get all the cool tech he sees.

That's everything I have for now and have a good day!

Man I think Danny and Beelzebub would have a super complicated relationship if they actually moved in the same circles.

On one hand Danny would definitely respect her for her no-shit attitude and forward nature. And I think conversations between these two would be wonderfully transparent and to-the-point.

On the other, her blatant criminal activity is a bad look for him when he's trying to get college scholarships, and while he gets into fights from time to time he's not like, actual crime level (underage drinking isn't an actual crime, and that's just at parties anyway). He doesn't even steal shit, despite having the financial motivation to do so. So he probably wouldn't want to get too close to her cause of that reputation.

I could see them messing around before Danny came out as a sort of intense make-out/hookup, but I think there would be zero emotional attraction going on there, at least on Danny's part. Or if there is an emotion, it's intense hormones rather than actual affection. Plus his closeted status might disqualify him as someone living honestly in her books?

Hell, I could even see her as one of the women Danny is willing to throw down with on the grounds that she can fight back. I don't think it would even be a fight that left ill-feelings afterwards.

Man if Danny was straight he would be totally into her, now that I write it out. But he isn't, so make of that what you will. "She is a woman that causes confusing and difficult feelings in me that I do not understand so I will go dance/commit violence instead."
