This meme looks like fun.
And god knows I can expound on inter-character relationships for hours.
So. Have at!
Name either a character or a relationship between characters (not necessarily romantic) from canons I know and/or Milliways and I will a.) give my rambling opinion of him/her/it and b.) tell you one thing I really like about him/her/it.

Um. X-23 and Lan. Well, for one thing, I love the way they are both A-okay with not talking. And it seems to me that Lan realizes (or is starting to realize) that it's not that X-23 does not like to talk (though she doesn't, on many topics), but it's that she has no idea how to begin. She cannot make the first move socially for ANY MONEY.
And I like the way they are aware of each other's capabilities (at least to some extent), but wary about the motivations behind them, because they really do NOT know each other well.
And--I wouldn't describe either of them as idealistic, even Lan with his 'Light vs Shadow' thing (which is based in solid reality, because HI DARK ONE)--but they do have a markedly different worldview that hasn't come into play yet, and I cannot wait to see how things develop when it does.
Not to mention what she'll think of the Warder bond and what that means.
La!

SO CONSIDER THE PREVIOUS ANSWER A BONUS.
X-23 and Logan is both simpler and more complicated than X-23-Lan.
Largely this is because X-23 is his clone, and she's aware of that. She respects him, and is maybe a little in awe of him, and he's the only one she'll talk to about some stuff because he was there, or as good as--but she hates him, too. Because by being what he is, what he couldn't fail to be--he's the one that opened the door for what happened to her. Because the Facility is crazy.
And he seems to feel protective of her--probably a little because he has managed to feel at least a little responsible for her situation. Again, this is because Weapon X and the Facility--those programs are buckets o'crazy, too.
I do not think they've seen each other much, really. Logan knows as much as he does not because X talked to him about her past, but because Sarah Kinney sent him a letter. The same letter she gave to Laura (or would have if Laura hadn't killed her, oops).
But both X and Logan are prepared to do what has to be done--there are ways in which they are tougher than the other X-men, harder. Also more brittle (esp in X's case, some days). And their individual dynamic is a lot different. Logan forgot his past, forgot not being a violent SOB--X always has been one. She has no lingering memories of childhood, no suppressed instincts toward kindness and compassion and understanding, or even simple playing. She's a weapon that was never a girl. It's really no wonder she's having a hard time learning.
She's come to it years too late.

And yes. *hugs X so much* Yeah.
Poor messed up kid. All that makes lots of sense.
