Notable relationships that Date has, and some of his thoughts about them in a nutshell. Will be updated as necessary and when I am not being lazy. Redone from the last version
again, this time using the profile ganked from
here and edited to make things look prettier. Now also split into four different sections on four different posts because of LJ limits. B|

Death the Kid SHINIGAMI / MEISTER (★★) ☇ SOUL PERCEPTION |  |
"Greetings to all of Death City. I am Death the Kid, current Shinigami and head of this city." |
Current head of Shibusen. Date hasn't really had a chance to talk to him directly, but from the few chances he's been able to see the other he does have a respect of sorts of the kid. In a way, Kid reminds him of himself, having to take on such large responsibilities at such a young age because of circumstances and fate - thus in a way, Date sympathizes with him. But Kid does seem to be handling things well - even with all these kidnappings that have been going on left and right and all around - and he really is kind of impressed with how he does things in spite of all that has happened. He supposes it could be because he has support from his family and friends; something Date does understand as important, having gone through that stage himself. Personally, he hopes that he will have a chance to talk with the other, and perhaps understand him better and maybe help in somehow... even if his way of helping might be a little out there. |
 | Yumi Azusa DEATH SCYTHE ☇ DEMON SNIPER |
"My name is Yumi Azusa, the Deathscythe currently in charge of East Asia."
|
Deathscythe in charge of the East Asia region, of which Japan is part of. Date first met her upon his first arrival in Shibusen and has sort of kept in contact with her here and there. She's pretty serious and intense about her work, something which Date approves quite a bit, and with that approval comes a fair bit of respect - she is a Deathscythe after all. Upon his return to Death City after his being sent to back to Hi-No-Moto, she was the one who picked him up and got him to the clinic as well - something of which Date is grateful for. She's certainly helped him quite a bit, and he's thankful about that; he'll certainly try to return the favour one of these days when he can. |
Justin Law DEATH SCYTHE ☇ DEMON GUILLOTINE |  |
"Get down, this is going to be big! LAW ABIDING SILVER GUN!" |
Despite the apparent... air-headedness of his, its clear that the kid isn't a Deathscythe for nothing - the ability and power he displayed during the flood event was seriously one heck of an eye-opener for Date. Until then he had no idea about the abilities that a Death Scythe was able to posses and to see it for himself like that... needless to say, it was nothing sort of shocking for him. But with the initial surprise over and dealt with, this display now drives Date more than ever to work with Dante so that they can get to a state like this, and then use this power to give the Witches the smackdown they need to end this whole war. |
 | Black☆Star DARK BLADE TECHNICIAN / MEISTER (★★) ☇ SOUL MENACE |
"I am the one and only great Black☆Star, the one who will one day surpass god himself!"
|
From his first words, the kid has already rubbed Date off the wrong way. Loud, brash and with what seems like an over-inflated ego to boot, there's nothing about this kid which Date can actually approve properly. If he had to be honest rather, he reminds Date almost like a cockier and brasher version of Dante. But still, the fact that he's Tsubaki's Meister will have Date being more lenient in his judgement on Black☆Star; he supposes that there's much more than just what he's seen himself, and the kid has shown some signs of that as well. Date supposes that time - and a good spar - will reveal more once the chance arises. Until then though, he's still going to be a kid in his eyes - even if he is a two-star Meister. |
Tsubaki Nakatsukasa PARTNERED WEAPON ☇ DARK DEMON BLADE |  |
"You are... the one-eyed dragon, aren't you?" |
Sort of a replacement Rin for Date, in a way. A fair bit of how Tsubaki acts does remind him of Rin, but Date knows better than to replace one person for another; still, she's good and kind and he does like her quite a bit. The fact that she knows about him is a pretty big plus too, and the fact that she is from this world will help him quite a lot. After losing Rin and meeting her, Date strives even more than ever to step up and help defend Tsubaki and her friends more than ever - because he needs to make up for what he has failed in, and this is as good of a reason as any for him to push himself harder and make himself stronger for the battles that will come in time for him. |
 | Excalibur WEAPON (?) ☇ ??? |
"My legend began in the twelfth century!"
|
...Date doesn't really know what to make out of this strange and wacky individual. He's strange alright, and the way he goes off on his own little world is mildly amusing - but man, does this thing ever need to learn when to keep his mouth shut. Meeting him once was quite enough, and Date doesn't have the intention to see him/it/whatever again. Of course, fate might just change that in time perhaps, but that will depend on how things will go in the near future... |
Giriko WEAPON / ENCHANTER ☇ DEMON CHAINSAW |  |
"Weak, weak, weak! All of you are so damned weak!" |
An Autonomous Weapon who is allied with the Witches, known also as a golem maker and an Enchanter - and its also obvious Date has a hell of a grudge against this guy, alright. Nevermind the fact that he's hundreds of years old, fights without a Meister and is insanely strong; Date still has a couple of bones to pick with him. Time and time again he's clashed against the other and always Giriko's the one who leaves the fight unscarred while Date himself is left with injuries. It's obvious that the other's strong, bur that's still not going to stop Date - dragons are meant to conquer and rule, so one day he will be strong enough to defeat him, and that's a fact that he will make sure happens. |
