Difference between revisions of "Fate Testarossa"

Nanoha Takamachi - Once rivals in capturing the Jewel Seeds, now the best of friends. Fate doesn't feel there's any possible way to express her gratitude for what Nanoha did for her, feeling mostly embarrassment and regret for her past behavior towards her. And yet Nanoha never dwells on that, she always makes her feel welcome and appreciated. Calling her best friend's name is a sacred act for Fate Testarossa, she admired her enough for her progress as a mage, and now she finds herself admiring her more and more now that she's allowed to be a part of her private life as a normal girl. What she wants more than anything is to protect Nanoha's smile, and to stay with her forever.

Precia Testarossa - Dead?? She declared Fate was never her daughter, but Fate still feels like Precia was her mother. Even if nothing else about Fate is real, her feelings for her mother still are. She knows now that Precia was a mother grieving for her lost child, but her friends have taught her that she shouldn't excuse her neglect or abuse as a result. The memory of Precia falling into the void between worlds along with a girl in a tube that looks just like her will haunt her forever. Her current circumstances don't always feel real to her as a result of her artificial transplanted memories, like at any moment she's going to wake up in her bed at the Garden of Time and she'll be back to that place...

Alicia Testarossa - Where does Alicia end and Fate Testarossa begin? Fate has no idea how much of her is Alicia, and how much of her is her own being, but she takes her mother's word on the fact that they weren't the same. The knowledge that Alicia has existed has spurred on a crisis of identity as Fate struggles to find her place on Earth.

Arf - Fate's loyal familiar, although their relationship is anything but master and servant. Fate saved Arf's life when she was a dying wolf by making her into her familiar. Ever since the two have been nigh inseperable. They've played together, fought together, and are coming to adjust to their new circumstances together. Arf is loyal to a fault, though her loyalty is always in ultimately doing what she feels is best for Fate and protecting her rather than simply doing what Fate desires. Arf is the closest to knowing Fate's true feelings at all times, and Fate knows it, and though Arf doesn't always know what exactly to do to support her she always appreciates her familiar nuzzling in for pets whenever she's feeling depressed.

Bardiche - Fate's laconic loyal device. Bardiche was Linith's final gift to Fate and her legacy, he's a metaphoric and literal representation of Linith's desire for Fate to cut her own path to her destiny. When Bardiche was broken for an extended period of time it felt like a piece of her was missing. Having him back feels like she's complete again.

Lindy Harlaown - Fate's current Guardian. The idea of adoption has come up, but she's evasively deferred the topic with her silence. Once TSAB, she defected to the Tuners to cut through the red tape of Earth being an unadministrated world that was unfriendly to her world. Her experience with Lindy is night and day to that of her mother. Where Precia was neglectful, Lindy is there for her without asking; where her mother was abusive, Lindy is kind and supportive. She loves and respects Lindy very much, but is having a hard time adjusting to her care because her feelings for her mother keep holding her back.

Chrono Harlaown - Grumpy Spike. Sometimes aloof, he's often supportive in his own way. Fate isn't quite certain what it means to have a male influence in her life that isn't Bardiche. Still she's learning more and more each day and every moment he spends around her that it's not such a bad thing.

Amy Limietta - One of the TSAB defectors, Amy lives with the Harlaown family and works as a Tuner specialist on Midchildan magic and communications. She's also finding herself to be a part time device mechanic, and cartridge maker due to a lack of available resources. Fate is grateful for all the time and effort and labor she puts in on behalf of all of them, and for fixing Bardiche when everything seemed hopeless; and admires her attitude towards all things. She finds her relationship with Chrono cute, though she doesn't entirely get what's going on there.

Lera Camry - Once another rival in finding the Jewel Seeds, Fate knew her as Magical Cheeseburger Propane-chan. Over time Lera has become one of the closer Magical Girls to her other than Nanoha, because she invested herself in trying to save Fate from her circumstances. Now that Fate is free, she finds Lera to be one of her best friends. She tried to be there for her throughout her own troubles with her mother and a certain jerk who stole Broken Ground. While she sees her as a sister figure, she doesn't necessarily see her as a senpai given how the two started out evenly as rivals. She loves her, and respects her, and adores her and desires to protect her smile too. But she isn't above calling her out on some of her silliness either...

Ren Aizawa - Ren was another rival in the conflict of the jewel seeds and Fate feels bad about hurting her time and time again. Still she's happy enough to be her friend now, and is always trying her best to repay her for her help in some really tough spots before. Fate feels badly about how the conflict with the Wolkenritter turned out recently, since Ren wraps so much of her identity into her magical self, getting it taken away even for a short time must have been so hard for her. She feels her relationship with Endo is cute, and tries to be supportive of it.

Endo Naoki - For the longest time, Fate didn't know what to make of Endo. He seemed like an adventuring tourist of sorts, just getting caught up in one fight over the jewel seeds after another and she had trouble seeing how he could be so lax about the conflicts he was wrapped up in. Over time she's warmed up to him, seeing him as this constant source of support in her life. She was happy to help with the troubles that went on with the Belkan ship, though she's not quite certain what it will all mean for their future...

Hotaru Tomoe - Fate once approached Hotaru on the playground because she looked lonely even though her friends tried to warn her off. What she found was a kind but sickly girl- who quickly transformed into a magic hungry monster with an alien darkness that felt as dark and terrible as Queen Beryl. Still shaken by the experience, she doesn't know what to make of it but has ultimately decided that the girl she met could not be the monster. Even so it still took her time to work up the courage to attempt to approach her again, taking the inspiration of watching Hotaru and Chibi-Usa, then Hotaru and Hayate together to make the final leap of trying to become her friend. Discovering that the Outer Senshi are attempting to kill her to save the world, and the Wolkenritter are looking to drain her has only made her made her determined to protect the kind girl she met that day from both groups- and the monster inside her.

Chibi-Usa Tsukino - Meeting on the trip to Hokkaido, Fate took to Chibi-Usa's earnest cheer right away. She's come to like her more and more seeing her and Hotaru interact, and appreciated the invitation she was given to Hotaru's birthday party. She hopes in the future to come to know this Juuban girl better, though she's wondering what exactly her connection to the Outer Senshi might be...

Hayate Yagami - Fate barely knows Hayate, other than the fact that this nine year old enjoys books and seemed to have it so together that she referred to both Signum and Vita as her kids. She couldn't help but find their relationship and her emotional maturity incredibly endearing, and she hopes to get to know better in the future.

Steven Universe - This boy and Fate met by Steven declaring that her explosions were cool. While Fate isn't certain she agrees that explosions are cool, she couldn't help but be a bit flattered since she takes pride in her magic. Ever since then she's found Steven to be a constant source of earnest cheer in her life, and she tends to appreciate his presence. Whether it's talking a lady who just stole the ocean down- or being the co-pilot on a helicopter.

Sayaka Miki - When Sayaka Miki announced the idea of the Chevaliers, Fate was taken to it immediately. A true believer of the Chevaliers ideals, she thinks of being a part of them as paying forward the favor that was once done by her. While at first Sayaka's brand of affection was a little strange to her, she's taken to it more and more, admiring the Puella Magi all the more for her commitment to the campaign of selfishness against Magical Girls. And yet she worries about her, as the campaign becomes more and more heated, she finds herself desiring to take on more of the burden than might be expected of a child her age... the truth is that she doesn't believe the value of her life equal to hers, or any of them.

Mami Tomoe - The Veteran Puella Magi was once in conflict with Fate, not over the Jewel Seeds, but rather one of the Keys of the City since she was a Tuner. On that occasion Mami attacked her, and she wouldn't back down, barely managing to escape from her guns and certainly not unscathed. Fate does not blame anyone for not trusting her however, and has forgiven her for this incident. Ever since she's found that she admires everything she learns about the magical girl- who recently inspired her to try her hand at cake baking. So far Mami has managed to hold her tongue about the child's tea sins though...

Garnet - The leader of the Crystal Gems is a calming figure of sorts in Fate's life, and one of the few Magical Girls she sees as an authority figure. When Garnet speaks, she tends to stand up and listen and respect whatever it is she has to say. She always appreciates it when the tall figure lends her some comfort and emotional support, or even just offers to walk her back some nights. She doesn't know much about her but she's hoping to change this in the future.

Tsubasa Kazanari - Fate find herself to be a young fan of both Tsubasa Kazanari's solo career as an idol as well as her past material as a part of Zwei Wing. Meeting her in person, she found Tsubasa's intensity to be strange but not unfamiliar. As well as her lone wolf tendencies. Their meetings have been tense so far as while Fate is grateful for everything she's done for the Chevaliers so far, they find themselves disagreeing on some core issues. Still she's hoping with time that Tsubasa will warm up to the rest of them through the same comraderie she found with the Chevaliers.

Nori Ankou - Fate remembers fighting La Sirene over the Jewel Seeds, which is why she's constantly stunned and dazzled by the fact that she's a popular model. She often finds herself looking up to her in that respect... even if she's a little guilty now that she's personally an Aohime. Also she loves her otter.

Honoka Yukishiro - At a very dark time in Fate's life, Honoka was there to take her hand and support her through the confusion of what to do to make amends with her mother. What she found was a girl who seemed to have a very complex relationship with her own parents, yet she doesn't quite understand it. She just knows the way Honoka stared out into the distance and said she knows a little about what she's going through. One day she hopes to thank her and hopes that Honoka too is in a better place.

Setsuna Higashi - While she was with Dark Fall, she was caught up in the strangest experience of Eas trying to vicariously work out her feelings through Fate. She didn't realize it before, but it became clear after. The two found themselves in a conflict of trying to validate their own way of life while people were trying to bring them out of it. During that time, Setsuna hurt Fate over and over, and Fate began to realize that the two of them were more similar than she thought. Seeing Setsuna get out of her own situation was such a relief for Fate despite the dark circumstances of it and she's been trying her best to help Setsuna come to terms with her new life on Earth as New Passion. Still she realizes that Setsuna isn't over her life of being a citizen of Labyrinth and being a loyal citizen of Lord Mobius, just as she isn't over being Precia Testarossa's child. The latest incident of normal, drained Setsuna Higashi throwing herself in the way of Signum's blade disturbs her more than she can say even if such feelings are hypocritical.

Westar - Westar of Labyrinth was someone who had such an earnest desire to collaborate that Fate found herself teaming up with him on more than one occasion. What she found was a kind man with a loyalty to his comrades unmatched by most people. Westar back then was a respected ally to her, and Hayato Nishi now is a friend she'd like to keep. She wants to get him away from the clutches of Labyrinth, but at the same time she doesn't believe she has the ability to break his loyalty and inspire him away. Instead she thinks there's someone else she knows that would do a far better at this...

Soular - Despite how unusual this might sound, Soular was an unlikely source of emotional support for Fate back in Dark Fall. She didn't understand this at the time, respecting Soular a great deal but thinking that his counsel was all part of some scheme. Whether for research on his own endeavors or to bring her closer into the rule of Labyrinth. What she came to realize once she actually left is that Soular was actually trying to care for her in his own way, and she finds that she cares to get him out from under the thumb of Labyrinth. This is easier said than done, as in order to prove his value to Lord Mobius he's become more and more desperately involved in worse plots. Their last battle together made Fate wonder if the strain is getting to him, and she hopes he'll get out of there before it's too late.

Signum - After clashing with Signum time and time again, she feels she's only a sliver closer to her true feelings. And yet Fate feels nothing but respect for the General of Raging Fire. Her skill in battle is matched only by her unwavering resolve. Fate feels the only way she could possibly reach someone like Signum is to overcome her strength with her own, and to show her through that strength that she is capable of understanding Signum's feelings. Attempting to draw similarities between the two brought an unexpected response out of the Cloud Knight, and she's not certain what that means. Bardiche and her developed her sonic form, a form with both intense speed and power but limited defense in an attempt to overcome Signum eventually. And yet even after doing this she feels like there's still a wide gulf in their power. She has no idea it's the same Signum who often shows up and tries to help foster her growth. She wouldn't know what to make of it if she did.

Vita - It's not as if Fate doesn't admire Vita's strength, but she's often finds herself frustrated by Vita's continued insistence to hurt people close to her and unwillingness to communicate. Finding out that she's a construct of the book of darkness causes her to feel like the two are similar in a sort of childish, emotionally unhealthy way, and yet she feels no closer to Vita's feelings. It seems time and time again the only thing she finds herself closer to is her hammer, yet she finds herself persisting in trying to reach her and understand why the Crimson Iron Rider feels she must do what she's doing. The lengths she's willing to go were made clear when she shattered Bardiche to a point where it seemed unlikely he could be repaired... She's certainly not aware that Vita is the adorable child who seems very close to Hayate Yagami.

Shamal - Right now Fate knows her mostly as the support mage of the Wolkenritter who uses such unusual magic. The image of a hand in the center of Endo's chest, and later Ren's was so disturbing to her. Not to mention the ease in which her spells caught her at her fastest. All she knows is that when Shamal is on the battlefield supporting them the Wolkenritter are at their most dangerous.

Zafira - Another of the Wolkenritter. Fate doesn't know much about him except that his presence usually Arf to desire to further their rivalry by clashing fists...

Sailor Pluto - This Sailor Senshi is driven to kill Hotaru Tomoe at any cost, and thus is Fate Testarossa's enemy. But at the same time she feels, a little immaturely that if only Pluto could better communicate why she feels Hotaru must die, that she'd be able to communicate why Hotaru mustn't and the two would find middle ground. Seeing how close she appeared to be to Chibi-Usa disturbed her some, but Chibi-Usa is a normal girl so she certainly doesn't blame her for it. She respects her enough now that she knows she must use all of her strength if she has any hope of overcoming her in the future.

Sailor Uranus - This intense warrior is one that Fate Testarossa respects a great deal, and yet at the same time she believes as with Pluto that understanding might be found if they communicated their feelings with their strength. In that sense she eagerly looks forward to clashing with her to test her strength. At the same time however she's quite certain the outcome wouldn't end up in her favor. She fully believes that if this Senshi willing to kill Hotaru that Uranus would run her over getting to her.

Mysterious Masked Woman - Aided in Vita's grab of the Key to the City, endangered Lera, injured her, leaving her utterly humiliated and defeated- with her partner device shattered. She hasn't encountered her again, but she desires to know what drives her to do things like what she did...
