Collection of people who put up with Varian's bullshit (and those who don't)
"That winky flirt was a lie to trick me"

● ● ● ● ●
Name: Fern Mertens
♥♞ღ
Notes: Boyfriend, best friend, housemate. Understands him better than anyone ever has or probably ever will- given their mutual monster pasts. They both love each other a great deal. Varian has indirectly been responsible for two of Fern's deaths ane he gave up his right leg to restore Fern's memories. He truly believes that Fern can be a better person, and does his best to steer him into good decisions when he can. Varian chose to stay on in Trench to remain with Fern. Varian's newfound fire powers are making navigating their relationship even trickier than before- but they're working on it.

Name: Usagi Tsukino
♥♞❀
Notes: Sis. Varian didn't think it was possible for another person as compassionate as Rapunzel to exist but here she is. Usagi is one of the people he trusts most in town, and though he finds her affection overbearing a lot of the time, he knows it comes from a genuine place and he kind of appreciates the extra effort. He often comes to her with his problems and she remains one of the few people with the determination to make him go the fuck to sleep. She means the ABSOLUTE universe to him and would do anything for her.

Name: Maul
♞❂ ✖
Notes: Murder uncle. Maul has a very... unique way of showing he cares, but he has helped Varian out without complaint many times over. Varian knows Maul has come from a rough, unloved past and that made him who he is today. Maul's recent actions have had a massively negative affect on their relationship, Varian is avoiding him.

Name: Oscar Pine
♥♞
Notes: A pretty awesome guy. Has Ozpin in his head back home, which Varian doesn't like one bit.. Varian has a lot of time for him, and finds familiarity in a farm boy who was dragged into world-ending-stakes by a bunch of lunatics. He feels you, Bud. Oscar recently made a sacrifice to fix Varian's death-damaged memories, resulting in the loss of his leg. Varian feels a lot of guilt about this, but is grateful for Oscar doing it anyway.

Name: Luz Noceda
♥♞❀
Notes: Sis, housemate. She's a human who is learning magic with glyphs. Despite being magic, Varian finds the process quite fascinating and wants to study the make-up of the glyphs at some point to understand how they work. She's a genuinely wonderful person who cares about others a great deal. Varian loves her a lot, despite of (and because of) their sibling bickering. He'd murder the hell out of anyone who ever hurt her, so don't- especially because she's super uncomfortable with the idea.

Name: Bella Swan
♥♞
Notes: Sis. Probably the coolest person he'll ever meet in real life that's his own age. She has a super shitty vampire boyfriend who Varian feels needs to fuck off forever. An endless well of future information that any cool teenager needs to know. He trusts her pretty solidly. She's good people. Made him a cool-ass vest!

Name: Richie Tozier
♥
Notes: Another bringing of excellent future music. They dealt with the Moss King together, and he seems like a pretty cool guy. He's from Eddie's world. Varian finds him someone well worth talking and opening up to. He's genuinely a decent human being. A WEIRD one, but decent and that's what matters. Varian tries to be a sounding board for him for when he needs it- especially now Eddie has gone.

Name: Takashi Shirogane
♥♞
Notes: Space dad. Possibly the most stressed person in all of Deerington. Shiro's taken it upon himself to take care of EVERYONE it seems. Still, he's been nothing but encouraging to Varian and his relentless praise and validation are starting to chip away at Varian's mile-thick layers of self-loathing. He genuinely cares for Varian's wellbeing and he does appreciate it, even if it's a little overbearing at times.

Name: Orpheus
♥
Notes: THAT Orpheus. Varian's admitted he knows Orpheus' story and honestly feels a little kinship with him. Orpheus is a good person, always willing to help out other Sleepers. Varian finds him a deeply worthwhile person to spend time with. They've dealt with more than a few scrapes together and Varian trusts him implicitly.

Name: KD6-3.7
♥
Notes: A very cool android and a math teacher in the High School. An encouraging figure in Varian's life- maybe if he collects enough of them he'll start to believe them that he's worth something. He's a great guy who always has good advice on offer.

Name: Melius Senyan
♥
Notes: ALCHEMY FRIEND!!! He's from a world with dragon gods(??) and a lot of magic- but he prefers alchemy which makes him exactly the sort of person Varian understands and values a lot. He's pretty nervy for a big destined hero but Varian likes and trusts him a lot. Varian would murder the shit out of anyone who tries to hurt Meli. Gave him a Dovahkiin name which means "tries to be better" which Varian got very emotional about. Works with him in The Potion Hut.

Name: Mako
♥♞
Notes: A VERY cool guy with lightning and fire powers! Mako is interested in learning how Deerington functions which Varian always appreciates- and he's been a solid rock of support from the get-go. Varian's very glad he met him. Thanks to an event, Mako now knows Varian's past - and did not judge him for it. He's also one of the VERY few people Varian's opened up to about Andrew. Big trust. Is helping Varian deal with his new fire powers, thanks buddy.

Name: Wu
♥♞
Notes: A king and Mako's boyfriend. Pretty highly strung but he wants to do better things for his people, which is refreshing to hear honestly. Much more open and exciteable than Varian is, he's getting a pretty good knack for pulling Varian out of his shell. Offered Varian nothing but support when he admitted his past to the man- something Varian is so damn grateful for. Wu is one of the best people in Trench and Varian would fight anyone over that.

Name: Dipper Pines
♥♞
Notes: A fellow weedy nerd! Varian likes Dipper plenty and finds a pretty good conspiracy and research buddy in him! He and Dipper are usually on the same wavelength when it comes to goings on in the town and once they get started talking about their theories they can be at it for hours. His real name is Mason which is a nugget Varian is sitting on for future blackmail. He stupidly ignored Dipper's warnings about corruption and has learned to listen to the other boy more.

Name: Neopolitan
♥♞❂
Notes: He sees a lot of himself in Neo- how he once was himself. She asked him to continue his research in a drug to take her out without killing her if the town ever turned her again- he's kept that promise. Regardless, she seems to be genuinely trying to make an effort to be a better person, they've finally managed to find some sort of mutual ground.

Name: Vira-Lorr
Notes: Ran FEAR and gave him a place to lock himself away during July. It didn't work, but he doesn't hold it against her. He's less of a fan of FEAR these days because of it, but he still finds her a pretty wise counsel and she does genuinely seem to care about the people here. They both agree on points of redemption- and that some people (namely Mother Superior) are never going to accept it.

Notes: Really smart guy!! Ford researched unusual phenomena which means Deerington is perfect for him. He's always willing to help Varian with whatever he's working on and Varian has taught him how to make the antidote, just to be safe! A VERY cool person! They worked on the ill-fated portals together.

Name: Ange Ushiromiya

Notes: Gloomy Girl!! Ange isn't the cheeriest person alive, but she DID save Varian's life from quicksand once, so he kind of owes her. He finds her company deeply pleasant, and he cares about her a great deal. He knows she goes home to something awful and it honestly breaks his heart. She deserves so much better than what she got. She did not take his past well, something Varian doesn't blame her for in the least, but it gave them a better understanding of one another. He thinks she's good people- even if she might not agree.

Notes: Fern's weird stoner friend who became HIS weird stoner friend. Determined to teach the guy how to play chess properly because he sucks at it. Dating Luna for some unfathomable reason. He has a demon in his head who's an asshole- but Peter himself is a really good guy. Varian feels a real kinship with him- social outcasts unite! They're about as far apart as people can be but Varian appreciates Peter a lot.

Name: Luna Lovegood
❂♣♞
Notes: A witch who's very practised in magic. Not Varian's favourite subject, but still. She's talented with potions which he appreciates. They had a falling out over Varian's poor dealing with Grass Demon and nearly came to blows during Prom after Varian met Paimon. There's still a lot of unsettled bad blood between them, despite Peter and Fern's attempts to broker peace. Knows his past thanks to an event, and they bonded over both losing their mothers very young which has started to slowly, SLOWLY rebuild bridges between the two.

Notes: Stab uncle, housemate. He's very close to Fern- sometimes haunts their coffee table. He has some sort of condition which turned him into smoke, which he's reluctant to talk about. Varian kind of wants to figure out how to help him, but he's not having much luck. Likes to ask weird, invasive questions about his and Fern's love life. Please stop. Regardless he's willing to defend the Disaster House to the hilt and that really does mean something.

Notes: Kind of what would happen if you mashed Eugene and home-Lance into one person. Varian finds him obnoxious 80% of the time, but he clearly cares and their arguments are more friendly bickering than anything genuinely mallicious. Varian still wishes that Lance would engage his braincells for like ONE second before speaking, though. They have started to reconnect their bond after the Reaper incident.

Name: Grass Demon
♞❂✖
Notes: The demon(??) that lives in Fern's head. Or rather, is half of what makes Fern... Fern. Varian has an uneasy relationship with him, not helped when Varian kneejerk trapped him in the Great Sleep when he learned of his existence, killing him. He's apologised since, but the Grass Demon knows how to get under his skin and he doesn't like it one bit.

Notes: Big bro! Encourages him to play with gun-swords, as such he is a cool fuckin' adult. Varian helped him get out of a broken house and taught him about Omens. Okay so he's cool but maybe he's a tiny bit of a disaster, too? He cares a lot about Varian's wellbeing and the feeling is mutual. He got to see Manabu's cool space train and Manabu has been showing up to help him when he needs it. A great guy.

Very understanding when he learned about Varian's past.

Notes: In a band. Kind of... easily distracted and all over the place, but seems mostly harmless. Has been teaching him about some future rock bands. He's actually a pretty cool guy. Is carrying around some pretty unpleasant skeletons in his closet, Varian is realising- it makes him worry about the guy (especially after surviving his own corruption). They survived The Sleeper Farms together.

Notes: A genuinely kind and helpful person. She has an orchard which survived from Deerington. She had to hide who she was to survive, which meant losing her wings- and that kind of breaks Varian's heart a little. She's someone more familiar with the time period Varian is from, and her continued wish to help and support him means the world. She's one of the best people in Trench, in Varian's opinion.

Name: Zib "Dib" Membrane
♥
Notes: Has some ABSOLUTELY BATSHIT stories. He was tormented by an alien which is the reason for the aforementioned batshit stories. He also knows what it's like to have a father who's generally dismissive of him, so that makes some solid kinship for Varian. He's also a science nerd, that helps. Wants to do sketchy stuff with portals which Varian's still unsure of. Turns out has complicated Be Proud of me Dad feelings which resonates with Varian deeply- as do the mistakes he's made in trying to achieve that. This is all horribly familiar and it breaks Varian's heart to know someone else has been through this.

Name: Rapunzel
♥♞❀
Notes: Sis, housemate. Easily the most influential person in Varian's entire existence. Varian UTTERLY adores Rapunzel. They have a complicated history (sorry he stole your mom and tried to kill everyone you loved) but Rapunzel has stalwartly believed in him even when he couldn't believe in himself. She has come from a point in time behind him which complicates matters- and he's a little afraid to open up about just how much he's been through. Regardless, he will happily chunder about how amazing Rapunzel is until the cows come home. He's missed her terribly.

Name: Ahiru
♥
Notes: Housemate. Seems pretty damn young to be in Trench- and is pretty nervy and ditzy. This, naturally, means she must be protected against harm as much as possible. Varian wants to teach her how to defend herself, though- because he KNOWS it'll come up sooner rather than later. Turns out she's a DUCK. Not the strangest thing he's come across but still pretty strange. He's more dtemined to protect her.

Name: Bigby
♥
Notes: Werewolf - it sounds a lot like what Catalina is dealing with, with a wolf curse. He seems to believe this means people should give him a wide berth and not help him, something Varian naturally disagrees with a lot. He's a genuinely wonderful guy and he deserves to have people watching out for him. Varian will play frisbee with his wolfy self because who wouldn't?

Name: Junia
Notes: Kind of crabby and mistrustful of other people. It took a while for Varian to get her to leave the frozen shore - but she seems to understand his dislike of magic. Maybe she'll be more personable once she's god somewhere warm and good food in her, right? Right?

But is a steady and really decent person despite his age. Good kid. Shares that "person from a time where modern pop culture doesn't exist yet and is confused by it" mood of Varian's.
