Oh man, where to start with Griffin. Things were definitely shaky for a while there due to Betrayal. It wasn't that she blamed him for the actions he took during betrayal because she's aware that he just was NOT himself. That was never really the issue. She died so many times that if she held a grudge against everyone there would be an individual on almost every unit. Her luck with dice is bad, man.
Her real issues stemmed from being made to feel that she was weak/useless/pitiful and unable to protect the people she loves. Which she DID feel that way due to her cruddy luck during that event. And then being told that from him while watching her special someone killed in front of her was. Rough.
While all of that was upsetting, she's... I can't say she's MOVED ON. But she doesn't have any issues with him. Especially because he let her spar. Like-- she doesn't like REAL fighting, but he allowed her an outlet and that did help. She actually respects him a lot. She doesn't really understand his other form thing all that well but HEY. Sometimes people turn into crazy animals and do crazy things. What can you do?
She is disappointed about the whole contract thing because she felt that they had all finally made REAL progress. It's what she had wanted for so long and it had cheered her up, only to have it dissolved almost immediately. She had to tell her unit and they were all kind of hngg with her and she felt a little like a failure regarding that again. And she doesn't think the unit is as likely to listen to her suggestions regarding Avante in the future or the other units. Especially now that they may be entering into a contract with a different unit that she doesn't especially trust and so far doesn't like any of the terms of the agreement. So she feels extra disappointed on that front because had they been able to form a true alliance of sorts with Avante, everyone on their unit would have been for it (including Shu!!).
She DOES believe Griffin when he says he's trying his best, and she does think things are better now than they had been in the past. It was just... a disappointment and she's been fighting recently with her unit regarding new playing styles and new alliances and she's kind of wavering like okay maybe I don't get as much say now because my own attempts.... failed... not including the fact that she feels some of her concerns regarding the new alliance were outright disregarded and she was deemed untrustworthy regarding it because of some of her opposition to parts of it.
She thinks...Griffin is really.............. kind of cute. And a little dumb like her but also cute. But she knows that Shrike likes him a lot so will admire from afar. In general, she thinks he's a good person and while they do have some differences, she thinks they both just really care about protecting the people important to them and she gets it.
Meanwhile I just really need Levi to talk to him more.
