(Also you should pick up our thread whenever because then I can answer this far more accurately and in depth for you—but I can still give you this much!)
HAIL TOTALLY RESPECTS SION! He is level-headed and logical, good with advice, and he has this thing about him that makes him seem like he's always in control—not in the manipulative way at all, but in the HE KNOWS WHAT HE'S DOING way, and Hail wishes she could be a little more like that. However, after recent(/previous) developments, Hail's been feeling super down about herself and she's been wondering if declaring Sion her brother was a stupid thing or not. She thinks that going "WE CAN DO WHATEVER WE WANT SO LET'S BE SIBLINGS!!" might have been a mistake, because... SION DESERVES A BETTER SISTER THAN HER! He clearly does. Echo won't call it off, because even she likes the idea of having Sion as a brother and would really like to have him as her family, but she'll feel bad that she just gave Sion a shitty sister when he deserves someone who isn't at least planning on killing herself after she gets out of Aather.
Hail's also wondering if she should ask Sion about the whole Gara thing, considering that's her teammate(s) AND her brother involved, and she doesn't WANT conflict anywhere if she can help it. Gara gave her the OK, so she might poke Sion about that later anyway.

Hail is actually quite fond of Turquoise! Like, she's comfortable with them now, and I think part of it had to do with the old Vincent Plot stigma. LIKE, IT'S ALMOST CLEAR AND GONE! None of these Turqs (aside from Katou) had anything to do with it, they all seem to care for Hail and openly dislike Zwei (which is reassuring!) and... she's grateful!! For this!! SHE GENUINELY LIKES ALL OF THE DUMB BOYS (TO VARYING DEGREES)! She likes doing dumb things with them and she wants to help Turquoise and help them to be happy. As someone who's at her lowest, Hail knows how awful it feels and just wants to keep everyone she cares about, especially Turquoise, AWAY from feeling as miserable as this. no precious babies stay happy :(
Oh, and she doesn't want to lose Turq either. Whether a Persona swipes them away for a long time, or a booking happens, or darkness grabs, or even if they're just going back home. Losing teammates is a thing Hail accepts, but finds... sad. It's nothing obsessive, and it's not really bothering her, but it sort of sits in the back of her mind that she's going to lose these teammates someday no matter what. So while she's comfortable with Turquoise, she's also afraid of getting too close and getting news that they're going/gone one day. Also the fact that she intends to take her life when SHE leaves, so, there's that playing a role, too.

Hail is not sure what to make of Kise because it's all confusingly nice?! Here is someone she's only talked to, like, once, and sure he's a teammate's teammate, but he is suddenly inquiring about what's bothering her and being encouraging and providing his own input that is neither off-putting nor offensive, and offering to take her on dates?! What are you doing, Peach, do you even realize what kind of failure you're talking to and offering to spend time with?! It's funny, DATES HOLD A BIG MEANING TO HAIL, but she's toning the meaning down to 'Peach is hanging out with me and doing fun things with me' because r l y. There is no way anyone could possibly mean ~dating~ sincerely get out.
Also he's actually getting reactions out of her. The girl who has been feeling dead inside is actually flustered and touched and intrigued. Oh, AND HE'S ACTUALLY MAKING HER INTERESTED IN DOING THINGS! Th-that's huge, actually. Like for example, partaking in hobbies, and the karaoke room, and even more dates. Kise actually has Hail convinced she should try to enjoy life a little in Aather, too.
And though she's also looking forward to future things, there is also this pessimistic part of her that believes he's going to forget everything he's said, not because she doesn't believe him, but because that is her life. And though Kise discouraged her from looking at things like that (he said it in a way that made her want to take it to heart), she can't help but think that THIS IS HER LIFE, OF COURSE SHE WILL BE DISAPPOINTED AND HURT IN THE END.

It comforted Hail when Bart joined her in the pillow pile and drank with her! But now she is mostly worried about him, because him feeling like a dead weight to the team is NOT how she wants him to feel. She wants to help him incredibly, and SHE'S NOT SURE HOW TO DO THAT, but she's offering!! She still wants to get his help/help him host a turq party. We can have a drinking contest, and idk!! FUN THINGSSSS. She's concerned about his memories, though that may or may not change after I finally play in the dream?!
BUT YES BART IS STILL A RELIABLE GOOD PERSON, I couldn't find a nice cake to toss at you either. :c

I'M PRETTY SURE IT'S OBVIOUS ALREADY, but Hail's starting to really doubt Van's ideals/goals, because even if it's worked for him and the Persona, it's never worked for her. She can't supply the justice Aather needs, and even if there's a way to work around it Hail's just. Given up at this point. This world is dark and cruel and it makes no sense to Hail anymore. She still looks up to Van, because his will to keep trying is admirable, but. No, she really doesn't think he'll leave a mark on this world or do anything useful to change it, because this world is messed up like that. And sadly she wants nothing to do with Aather anymore, so she is hoping he fails just so they can continue on with their suicide pact. :( IT IS SUPER SAD BUT THAT ACTUALLY... MADE HAIL FEEL BETTER, IN A WAY. To die and leave her crummy lives behind would be the best, she thinks, and she felt like someone finally understood when Van agreed to go through with it with her if he failed (WHICH, AGAIN, HAIL THINKS WILL HAPPEN.)

But she made the offer after he was pressured into putting points on Sapphire by his own teammates, died, and then less than 24-hours received lectures on how he has to be more understanding of them, which made him feel as though he was being seen as the problem in that situation. And what happened, to him, happened because Red and Apple just believed that magically they could make everything better by finding a Third Option and refusing to even discuss a plan on what to do in games, even when he specifically asked for one. Which had been an issue since his very first death and that game was the ninth time he died. And four of those deaths happened in games which there were no third option, just die or have/force someone else to die in your place. And every response he got, from Sapphire, was "well, they need that hope" or "I know you don't want to die, but we can find a compromise" (with the second only later being clarified when he pressed Berry about it later, I THINK IT WAS POST-SUICIDE PACT THOUGH). And then add onto that the way Apple took his "I don't want Sapphire to play self-sacrificially" message before Jabberquest and somehow turned into her pelting snowballs at him and shouting "That's for trying to make me kill my friends!" and...basically taking "want to play to survive" into "wanting to murder other people".
BASICALLY! That game was what tipped him over into believing "My team doesn't give a damn whether I live or die" and earnestly believing that when his team used to be his 'safe place' that held him up and he just felt like they've basically abandoned him. (ALL STUFF THAT HEART GAME DEALT WITH BUT...REGARDLESS....)
WHICH GOES BACK TO HAIL and just...being so broken-hearted that she gave up on hope in the future so completely that she would rather go someplace else and die...and also not being able to fault her for it because it really is true. The world exists for other people and there are always going to be those sacrificed for the sake of everyone else -- for the sake of the 'greater good'. And while he can understand himself being made that sacrifice (it was essentially his 'role' back home, as ordained by the Score, and then he went and became a villain mostly on his own), it still upsets him that Hail suffered the way she did and couldn't find justice in it and also knowing that even if a system for justice was set up, it would be horribly corrupt and people like Hail would probably be taken advantage of in that system.
So basically he feels really terrible about the fact that he can't tell her the world is worth living in without that being a lie. And he can try and change the world to make it better but he also...doubts he can create a world where Hail would be able to live happily
without killing everyone else in it. The world he remembers and this world, Aather, were both built on the suffering of people, and those who benefit from it will never care about those who suffered for their sakes. That isn't a world worth living in.HE'LL STILL TRY, because to him Hail is someone who has suffered enough and she deserves happiness. She's took her pain and used it to try and ensure no-one else would have to suffer like she had and yet was ground down by reality and Van just so badly wants her to be happy because if someone deserves happiness then it is Hail but he also knows that reality means...some people can never live happily, no matter how much they deserve it. So dying with her to at least ensure she doesn't die alone is the next best thing he can do, really. :(
...But he's still also really honored he'd ask her since he remembered his own suicide plans back home and how he very much wanted to spend his final moments with his most important people, so being asked to die with Hail really...made him feel important to her. And also made him believe that his life meant something to her, because nothing says "Your life matters" more than asking someone to die with you. In Van Grants-ese. '-'
LETS CONTINUE THIS HORRIBLY DEPRESSING TRAIN: What would be an ideal world in Hail's eyes?

JUDAI IS A GOOD FRIEND. Hail is relieved to have a friend who knows relatively little about her crummy life (or at least doesn't act like it's All There Is To Her, which isn't what many do, but STILL A POINT TO BE MADE.) She's interested in learning about the cards!! But they're really confusing. And though my chart says she thinks it's weird, she does respect his interest in them and understands that they mean a lot to him! IT'S JUST THEY'RE CONFUSING, AND WHEN I PICK UP SHE'S GOING TO LEARN HE WENT TO SCHOOL FOR THEM, and man idek what will come from that. But basically SHE IS PRETTY COMFORTABLE WITH JUDAI!!

Hail is upset at Clue. :c She is not going to give him the cold shoulder, and she's not going to go around saying mean things about him, or anything like that, but she will give him a bit more sass about things and pick up a bit more of a smartass attitude with a pinch of sarcasm and a side of disappointment around him. YOU ARE SUCH A COWARD, I TOLD EMIL I LOVED HIM AND GOT DISSED, AND I'M JUST FINE.
ok no, Hail doesn't want him to have his heart broken—because that is the worst feeling ever! However, she doesn't want to see him sit aside and doubt himself and be all BREEZE IS GONE I WILL NEVER BE SOBER AGAIN I CAN'T HANDLE MYSELF when Hail only sees this as... giving up. And Hail is almost insulted by that behavior?? Even if ('if,' i say, haha) there are deep rooted reasons here, that Hail acknowledges but don't know what's up, she is annoyed that Clue is taking the coward's way out and not doing a thing about it. He's not looking into it, he's not talking to Breeze about it, he's not addressing it, he's just. Giving up, from Hail's point of view, and that bothers her. SHE WANTS TO HELP, BUT HE'S PUSHING HER AWAY, SO SHE'S JUST OFFENDED. >|
Reverse?
no subject
Basically, Clue is irritated that he let it slip how he feels about Breeze, and that Hail won't shut up about it. He likes Hail, he really does, but the more she pressures him about it, the harder he has to fight back from lashing out at her. Which is the last thing he wants to do, but it's hard for him not to think about it in the moment.
Basically, he wishes things would just go back to trying to deal with her problems and leaving his alone. He wants to front but she's not letting him. \:D/
Also, you are not just fine, you liar.
So, out of Current Turq, how much does Hail respect each person from most respected to least?

Katou

Hail

So, say Clue got drunk/high enough to admit that 75% of the reason he refuses to confess is because he doesn't trust HIMSELF in a relationship... would that affect Hail's opinion of him being a coward?

Basically she is now completely indifferent about Vincent, even if she still acknowledges that everything he's done was shitty and unforgivable. She's more likely to warn people about Vincent now, and she's going to advise that everyone avoid him because he's not worth the time and he's the scum of Aather.

I THINK SHE IS... it depends how I decide to handle things in Heart 2.0 V. Fix-it, because I might make it likely to destroy Zwei from there?! But. Hm. Idk how likely it is that people will do this. Echo is taking an extra long time with her quest now that she's miserable to the bone, too. I'm pretty sure it won't be done before her heart anyway.
SO YES, MOST LIKELY, BUT I'M NOT EVEN SUUUURE.

Even though Sakuya's a bird, Hail doesn't pay much mind to it. Not in the I'M BLIND TO YOUR SPECIES!!! way, but rather that she acknowledges he's a bird and whatevs he can think like a human, so. And he can play piano, that is pretty incredible. Even so, it is pretty interesting, just not something she puts focus on because he's still an individual with his own pursuits and ideas.
BUT YES, I need to pick up our thread, but so far, knowing that someone on his own team tried to kill him... this rubs Hail wrong! She would so pull a super secret vigilante JUSTICE move and deliberately bus Jasper during a game if Sakuya weren't playing. No, you don't get to try to hurt your teammate, even if it's okay now. It's like the most minuscule thing because it would only happen during a game, something even Hail doesn't take 100% seriously ('it's just a game.')
THIS ALL ASIDE, she finds Sakuya to be very trustworthy and respectable. He's a noble and he doesn't seem as terrible as the nobles she knows! He is also very knowledgeable, and even if she gets the feeling he judges her a little, she still feels pretty comfortable around him. Zwei, on the other hand, would love to maim him for speaking out to her.

HAIL WANTS TO LEARN MORE ABOUT GEYSERTIDE!! He seems to come from a normal world, so that seems like a relief. Kise informed her that Aomine inspired him to play basketball on their ~date~ (not your date with kise though if that happened then goodness the confusion), tHAT IS QUITE ADMIRABLE OF YOU, AOMINE, YOU MUST HAVE BEEN COOL! In fact, Hail will probably tell him this. :')a Also, Hail feels bad that Aomine saw a dark, panicky side of her during the parasite game, and she still guilts herself about this. :c But it's okay because Aomine seems pretty okay, SO!!
Gil is actually pretty cool and tolerable and he hates Vincent, so he gets bonus points?? Yes. He also likes alcohol. Idk where anyone could go wrong with this guy, srsly.

HAIL... FEELS A LITTLE CONFLICTED ABOUT TRUST. It's not actually as bad as the pie chart makes it sound; it's kind of... a relief?? A tiny ray of hope?? It's kind of nice that Kuroko trusts her! But... it makes her sad that he trusts her because she hasn't given him a reason to distrust her, and that's the same reason she trusted Vincent Nightray, Mr. Use-Her-Abuse-Her. So she is really concerned for him, too?? Please don't get yourself hurt, please don't trust scary people, please. So many question marks, I'm sorry.
ON ANOTHER NOTE, Hail feels bad about how Kuroko was trying to help her and SHE JUST TURNED HIM AWAY EVERY TIME. He was just trying to do a good thing, she was being stupid, and she wants to apologize for that (in fact i may tag you just to do that.)

i'm pretty sure hail is the only one kuroko knows on turq so far, but he's ppprettttyy sure aomine's in good hands based only on her. he can sense that she's had some tough times, so that's why he's more determined to trust her!! SO FAR, SHE HASN'T DONE HIM ANY WRONG so he'll win her over with his blind shounen insistence, he's sure. he's kinda like ..... on her asking about who's promiscuous and her tendency for drinking but everybody seems to have looser morals about legal ages here........ so..... he can overlook that......

i deserve an award for how creative i got with your chart okok
I... DON'T EVEN KNOW WHERE TO BEGIN, oh gosh, it's such a mess. The break-up had the misfortune of being the trigger to Hail breaking super duper badly. NOT NECESSARILY THE REASON, b-but the cause. Like pulling the last supporting block in Jenga.
yes, just like that. although it was also really super saddening on its own, i mean, every time echo's tried to fall in love she's seen her object of interest fall for someone else. SHE HAS SADLY ACCEPTED THIS AS A FACT IN HER LIFE, just like how she is hopeless and will never achieve anything or have anything good happen to her.
BUT OTHERWISE, MORE SPECIFICALLY ON EMIL... she still sees Emil as... a friend. Everyone tried to convince Hail that EMIL IS A TERRIBLE PERSON, HE'S A HEARTBREAKER, HE WASN'T A GOOD LOVER ANYWAY, ETC, but Hail didn't like any of this because how dare they talk bad about the guy she liked. No, she legitimately doesn't think he deserved to be talked about like that! But some of it did get through the cracks, so she will be a little colder. And she might snap on him someday, but she's kind of dead enough inside that this probably won't be a problem at all.
THAT IS ALL I CAN SAY BECAUSE I CANNOT SAY HOW IT IS BECAUSE IT RELIES ON THE NEXT THREAD
now love me, i mean, reverse—
no subject
BASICALLY, Emil feels really, really awful for having done that to her. He knows he fucked up, and he doesn't think he deserves even her friendship anymore... but he couldn't, at the same time, deny his feelings for Marta, and throw them aside when she's trapped in the book, a fact that he blames himself for as well... So. This was always destined to be a wreck when he decided to date her!
And he likes her, he likes her a lot, and he wants to help her in any way that he can. But, unfortunately, not in the way that he told Echo he would. So... he's guilty as hell, and he would gladly take any sort of punishment that she decided to dish out to him, if she did. Because.
LOOK AT THE VENN DIAGRAM. IT SAYS EXACTLY WHY.
what do you think echo will talk to emil about when i get off hiatus

um
ummmm
I'M NOT EVEN SURE, Echo is going to be so awkward, I can't even imagine it
she might just ask for a drop of blood and a tear, what else do you say after you've had your heart broken just like that—
oh she would probably apologize for being stupid! actually, she would do this. SHE HONESTLY THINKS IT'S HER FAULT, THIS IS A THING I NEGLECTED TO MENTION. Echo thinks it was her own mistake for loving him and thinking she could have a future with him—it's not his fault he has a relatively nice-ish life back home with friends and a gf!! Nothing in her life has gone right, so she thinks she's stupid for even THINKING she could have a relationship and a future with him! S-so far nobody has been able to convince Echo out of this, because she feels like she has ALL OF THE PROOF.
so yes, she would approach him with an apology and the request for blood and a tear and maybe be on her way, i can be ure friend from afar dear emil
SO HOW IS... EMIL'S STATE OF THINGS

I DON'T KNOW, TO BE HONEST. Sometimes it's hard for me to pin Emil down because I'm essentially pinning down two characters, who often have wildly different reactions to things?
