CANONMATES
	COLONEL FRANK ARCHER [✠ ❡ ♠ ❦ ⟲] Kimblee's travelling companion, battling partner, and commanding officer within Team Rocket. Archer and Kimblee have a bit of a tumultuous relationship; it started as an incredibly unpleasant affair, based on verbal sparring, insults and a broken level of control in Archer's favor - at the same time, there is a very high level of trust between them on both a professional and personal level, and at this point, their relationship is intensely codependent. Despite the amount of very rough play that still transpires between them, Archer is the only person Kimblee will take orders from without question; he's removed his allegiance entirely from the Homunculi, having sworn to provide complete loyalty and protection to Archer instead after becoming disillusioned with the former set.
	ISAAC MCDOUGAL [◆ ❦ ✔ Φ ⟲] Kimblee met Isaac during the Ishval Civil War, where they were temporarily assigned to the same district before Kimblee's transfer to the Kanda district to "take care" of the Rockbells; though he was skeptical at first, Kimblee eventually took on a sort of mentoring role toward Isaac, in which he managed to both somehow be halfway functional as a senior and give Isaac the wrong idea about him and his personality entirely. After pretty much stabbing him in the back during the entire debacle Isaac caused in Central, Kimblee was...fairly surprised, if amused, at meeting Isaac again in Johto; apparently the feelings Isaac had been bearing toward his mentor had...ah, deepened considerably since then. They're currently dating, though Kimblee uses the term "dating" lightly; he's pretty much only humoring Isaac in an attempt to break him of the thought that Kimblee is at all a good person for this sort of thing. Needless to say, it's...not working very well.
	ENVY [❡ ❢ ❦ ✔] This particular version of Envy isn't the one Kimblee is familiar with, having come from the same world as Archer; just the same, Kimblee remains generally loyal to the Homunculi (provided they continue to offer him both employment and amusement, of course) and he's willing to extend both the proverbial olive branch and his general services to Envy as well. Of course, the fact that Envy has already proven quite the troll definitely helps.
	LUST [❡ ♠ ✔] Kimblee's primary contact within the Homunculi set; they met during the conflict in Ishval and were quick to connect again upon Kimblee's arrival in Johto. Kimblee still has a great deal of respect for Lust, despite her early demise; she's one of the few Homunculi who was blessed with intelligence, for one...and she uses that intelligence to come up with some of the most fun plans, for another.
	MAJOR ALEX LOUIS ARMSTRONG [❢ ❦ ⟲] Armstrong is one that Kimblee has a very distant sense of fascination with. They met during the war, after an act of defiance on Armstrong's part; though Kimblee obviously wasn't going to let the act itself stand, he spared the man from a court-martialing by keeping his silence about the incident, impressed with the motivations behind the act, if nothing else. This event served as the catalyst for Armstrong's breakdown in Ishval; now that they're both in Johto, his interactions with Kimblee have been civil but cold - something they both seem content to uphold.

	CHASE YOUNG [ ❢ ❦ ] Will fill in eventually - until then, pretend there's some classy Lorem Ipsum shit here or something.
	COBRA COMMANDER [❡ ♠ ✔] Kimblee is admittedly not entirely sure what to make of this one most of the time; his thoughts on Cobra here tend to range between "dear god my whole brain is crying" and "holy shit, you're hilarious." He's generally a bit more skewed toward the latter, though he can't say he disapproves of Cobra's overall "Give 'em hell" message; he also doesn't seem opposed to letting Kimblee do as he sees fit, which is always a business proposal Kimblee can get behind. He's given Kimblee a rather...interesting TM as a gift for no real reason that Kimblee can see, allowed him to bomb the Game Corner at will, and served as a general bitching partner when they're both assigned to missions that are...less than fun; recently, Kimblee and Archer have seen fit to ally themselves with the man in hopes of increasing their chances of promotions.
	DIMITRI ALLEN [ ❢ ❦ ] Will fill in eventually - until then, pretend there's some classy Lorem Ipsum shit here or something.
	DIST [ ❢ ♠ ❚ ] Will fill in eventually - until then, pretend there's some classy Lorem Ipsum shit here or something.
	DR KATO [ ◆ ♠ ❦ ✔] ...Kimblee admittedly has no idea what to do with this one half the time; on the one hand, he's an incredibly fun coworker who assists with blowing things up, on the other he's the one responsible for getting Kimblee in women's clothing for the sake of a mission. However, he can't deny some sort of fondness for him, especially given Kato's potential, and as such Kimblee has been willing to do things like provide him with horrifying exploding rocksnakes and take responsibility for failures on missions should the need arise.

	KNEESOCKS [ ❢ ❦ ✔ ] Will fill in eventually - until then, pretend there's some classy Lorem Ipsum shit here or something.

	REN JINGUJI [ ❢ ❚ ] Will fill in eventually - until then, pretend there's some classy Lorem Ipsum shit here or something.
	RYUUNOSUKE URYUU [◆ ♠ ❦ ✔] Ryuunosuke makes no secret of the fact that he's batshit insane, and Kimblee admittedly sort of loves him for it; he admittedly finds Ryuunosuke to be precious in some stupid sort of way. He's taken him on as a 'junior' of sorts; no regrets, only destruction.
	SCANTY [ ❢ ❦ ✔ ] Will fill in eventually - until then, pretend there's some classy Lorem Ipsum shit here or something.

	CARMEN SANDIEGO/"LOCKE" [ ❡ ❦ ✔ ✾ ⟲ ] Will fill in eventually - until then, pretend there's some classy Lorem Ipsum shit here or something.
	CROW HOGAN [❢ ✔ Φ] Crow is kind of made of "No, seriously, what am I supposed to do with you;" he's an idealistic-hero-sort from what Kimblee can see, and he's always somewhere between liking Crow and just wanting to facepalm really hard at him. However, he finds the kid to be decent company over the network and good for conversation and entertainment purposes, so.
	EMMY ALTAVA [❢ ❦ ✔ Φ ⟲] A young woman from London that Kimblee met over the network and apparently made a good impression on, Emmy (or Miss Altava, as Kimblee tends to call her - addressing the lady properly and all) seems to have a very bright, if incredibly quaint outlook on life. Kimblee finds her both amusing and interesting to talk to, and he's become fairly fond of her in a surprisingly short period of time (because no, seriously - SO QUAINT HE'S GONNA DIE); however, that isn't preventing him from using her shamelessly. He's currently manipulating and conning her on behalf of Team Rocket, with plans that can only end horribly for her; however, she's completely unaware of his true nature for the time being, and surprisingly, the fondness he has for her isn't a ruse - that much is genuine.
	KARKAT VANTAS [❡ ◆ ❦ ✔] Though neither of them made a brilliant first impression on each other, what with Karkat's impressive profanity and Kimblee's tendency to be a condescending little prick to everyone, it seems that mutual interest in what the other actually had to say when valid points came out of their mouths won out in the end. Karkat is very young yet, and as such Kimblee tends to take what he says with a grain of salt or five, but at the same time he has to admit a major amount of fascination with troll culture and various aspects about Karkat's world that he's mentioned, and as such he isn't opposed to telling him things about Amestrian alchemy and whatnot.
	KAYNETH EL-MELLOI ARCHIBALD [ ♠ ➷ Φ ] Will fill in eventually - until then, pretend there's some classy Lorem Ipsum shit here or something.
	LIGHTNING FARRON [✯ ❦ ✹ Φ ➷ ✘] The leader of the anti-Rocket organization calling itself PGC (for some reason Kimblee didn't ask about); currently on Kimblee's shitlist for giving him false information, but he'll play nice with her for the time being (YES, HE RECOGNIZES THE IRONY, SHUT UP). He has every intention of pitting the PGC and TR against each other because Reasons (also amusement, but mostly Reasons); she's probably the best way to do it. So for now all he can really do is snipe at her under the guise of anon, but it's better than nothing.
	OBITO UCHIHA [ ❢ ❦ ✔ ] Will fill in eventually - until then, pretend there's some classy Lorem Ipsum shit here or something.
	YAGYUU HIROSHI [❢ ❦ ✔] Kimblee met Yagyuu via a text post made by the latter, in which questions of morality and ethics were brought up in regards to the Pokémon they raise. They've had a couple of conversations since then regarding such things; Kimblee is rather pleased to have found someone with an interest in ethics that's capable of discussing them in such a straightforward manner - it's valuable for both his own purposes and for the sake of interesting conversation once in a while.
