Epel looks up to you like an older brother, he hates it when Vil makes him do 'girly' things being all prim and perfect. He would always go to you just to feel better, he admire how strong you are unlike him looking all cute and adorable, he hates it. Vil saw potential in you beauty in his own way, he always tells himself that but in reality he just wanted an excuse to get closer to you. You remind him of the lone warrior or dark prince archetype he has seen in movies. Rook is just there.
