That's just it, I don't know if I like him enough to give him anything that even puts him on the starting line. His whole role at the moment is to be pretty much in the way and have a hard one-sided crush. I may have him be a school sports star, just to fuck with that trope, but that's not reallly something that can compare.

All she really feels towards him is a sense of obligation; she's not a total bitch as to just let him die (with or without the backtracking it would cause her goal), but she's apathetic enough to just let him follow her around without caring. She's gone from the school once the kill is done, so there's no reason to put any energy towards it one way or the other.

He could try embuing himself with demon essense or something, trying to put himself on her level, but that'd only cause him to be put on her hit list, since most of what she's after are "unsactioned" demons.
