Haruto Soma

Haruto sees Sam as a good guy. Good-natured, well-meaning, heroic, an all-around decent individual... he's gotten a lot of that from watching at a distance and seeing how others react to him, even though that time in the space arena does count for a lot. He's someone with genuine experience in things, who doesn't just seem to be making it all up, and he's maybe a little envious and intimidated by it.

That's a lot of the reason that he's so hesitant about going to talk to him. There's so much positive to be said about Sam that in comparison, he feels like his own flaws stick out all the more. And a lot of the talk is going to have to be about flaws and problems and ugly stuff that's easier to sweep under the rug.

Hoo boy, it's complicated. He'd thought well enough of Initiate upon their first meeting, and was a little intimidated at first, but he otherwise seemed like a solid sort of person that was probably on the same side of this whole mess as him. Getting captured and mind-whammied changed that completely, and he kicks himself for that initial assessment. Even though others have tried to explain that what's been stuck in his head isn't the truth, it feels real and it snaps right in with his own existing anxieties about trusting the wrong people and being mislead because of it.

Right now, he's at the point where he just wants to learn to co-exist in the same space with the guy. He doesn't want to be friends. He doesn't want to joke around, smile, do favors... he just wants to be able to exist within the same few feet of the guy and not completely lose his shit. And barring some dramatic social shift or happening, his attitude is likely to stay that way. The brainwashing experience has left him predisposed to thinking negatively towards Initiate, and he is jealous of all the people that he sees crowding around him to support and comfort him. But there's another thing that he has yet to be able to articulate well, ahahahah...

Hannah worries him. It's not just the standard sort of pity that he'd feel for any of the victors that he's gotten the rundown on. (And he has, at least from the Capitol-side. He's watched her expose.) There's a vicious streak to her that he's not sure is entirely safe. Visibly good people are easy to trust. Less visibly-so... well. He's wary about getting to close to things he shouldn't and getting burned.

And he is wary, rather than just dismissive, because she reminds him of Koyomi, a girl that he had a very 'it's complicated' relationship with back in his world. She's dead now. He'd thought he had safely put her memory to rest. But there's Hannah, quiet and angry and just like her when the light hits her right. He's already homesick, and at the point where he's ready to try reaching out to other people again... so, despite his misgivings and his certainty that he's going to get burned, he wants to try and reach out to her. Somehow. Hell if he knows exactly how to do it.

Haruto thinks Karkat's a good guy. Someone he can trust, and someone he sort of feels he needs to watch out for. (It's the age thing more than anything. Probably.) They've had some similar experiences, so they've got that in common, and he really likes Karkat's attitude. It's easier to be an optimist when there's a pessimist to bounce off of, right? And easier to keep being optimistic when there's someone to do all the being pessimistic. Both are needed to make the world go 'round.

If he's friendshipping at him a little hard right now, well... he's been lonely. And isolated. And only recently convinced that he needs to pull his head out of his ass and start re-engaging with the world at large. You've got a donut wizard ready to be all up in your business, Karkat. Sorry.
