Leonardo Vincent Silvercloud - Leo, aka "Steampunk" -- MISSING
Leo is one of the sweetest and weirdest people that Betsy has ever met, on top of the fact that he was the FIRST person she met upon arriving at the Mansion. He has proven himself time and time again, though, to be one of the only people who can consistently get Betsy to smile and enjoy life. She feels a connection to him (and not just the one that his girlfriend gave her) and has promised to look after and protect him with all she has.
Leo was the first boy who told Betsy that he loves her. He is of a very open mind with such things as love and intimacy. Betsy was just then acclimating to such emotion, especially strong ones for Julien. At the time, they agreed, for then, to just be and have some more of those perfect moments.
It came to be that Leo was the first person with whom Betsy would say "I love you", as there really was no other way to describe the depth of feeling between them. Unfortunately, now Leo is gone, absorbed into the Aether, though a device of his own making. He was able to say his goodbyes to Betsy, reminding her that he does love her and that he'll always be with her, watching her, part of her.

Julien Etienne Boudreaux - Jules, aka "Nawlins" -- DECEASED
Jules was the second person Betsy met at the Mansion, thanks to a bump on the stairs and a young man's charming gallantry. She and Julien come from similar backgrounds and positions of not trusting the people around them. However, they have come to trust each other quite a bit. Betsy trusts Julien with her life and has come to the point where she is willing to give everything she has for him. She even gave up five years of her past in order to save Julien's soul from what she thought was Baron Samedi, the Vodou King.
They had dated once before and are currently back together again, in an open relationship. And Betsy has just come to the realization - with the help of friends - that she is in love with Julien Boudreaux.
Julien and Betsy eventually parted ways about two months after the homecoming dance as he seemed to utterly neglect her. After about a month apart, Jules seemed to come back to life and began socializing again. He and Betsy talked and decided to give their relationship another go.
Only recently has Betsy returned from an unplanned trip to space to find Julien gone and the Earth under invasion by the Skrull. After journeying to New Orleans to request assistance from Madame Boudreaux and the Guilds, Betsy came to find that the boy she loves was an impostor and that Julien had actually been dead for over a month, murdered by the Skrull who took his place. Heartbroken, Betsy isolated herself for days in her mourning. And part of her, that she keeps quiet and hidden now, still blames herself for not getting to him in time.
Her first love. The first boy to open her heart and love her for who she is. She'll never forget him. Ever.

Diana Wayne, aka "Tiger"
The rich heiress of the Wayne Legacy and the street rat have, amazingly, hit it off rather well. Diana seems to understand some of Betsy's plights rather well, though other things about the girl she just cannot seem to get.
However, these two kittens have quite a bit in common and could very well work quite well in tandem, though their feline attitudes couldn't be any more different. Diana is territorial like the tiger Betsy calls her; Betsy more like a lioness. Each has their demons to face and they may not always agree but they are friends. Betsy knows who Diana's parents are; she figured it out several months ago but has said nothing to anyone regarding it. Diana can trust her. And that's what counts.

Sarah Evelynn Rogers - Eva, aka "Halo" -- DECEASED
Eva is Betsy's roommate at the Mansion. The daughter of Captain America - Steve Rogers - Eva is a masterpiece genetically. Inwardly, though, she is just like any other teenager, with her ups and downs, sorrows and joys. She and Betsy have hit it off rather well, especially as roommates. Eva was also Betsy's first female kiss.
Eva was also the first friend Betsy ever lost in battle, out in space, against the Kree. And that is not something a feral forgets.

Jonathon Kent - Jon, aka "Farm Boy"
Jon is unlike any guy Betsy has ever met. With strength and ability beyond imagining, he is the gentlest person she has ever met. The way he treats her, speaks to her, deals with her - nothing but gentle. The way she feels when she is with him is...indescribable. Together they have planted a small field of fruits and vegetables in a clearing of the forest that used to be full of dead trees.
After he and Diana broke up, Jon swept Betsy off for night in Morocco. And that remains a memory that exists only between the two of them, something they will always hold dear and close. He and Betsy cannot deny that there will always be a measure of tension between them. A tension that has become reality since Eva died and Jon's soul went to dark places out in an even darker outer space, as did Betsy's. They love each other.

They have had ups and down, shake-ups and breakups (always Betsy's doing), but Jon has stood fast by her through everything, always loving, always there with hand outstretched. After an emotional explosion, she chose to reconcile with Jon and they are giving monogamy a try. So
Aiden Braddock-Worthington, aka "Tweety", "Pretty Birdy" -- DECEASED
Aiden is by far one of the kindest people that Betsy has ever met. She enjoys petting his wings, as it soothes both him and her. He is her gentle therapist, helping her to work through emotions that she doesn't quite know how to deal with on her own and reminding her of her good qualities. Betsy adores him and looks to him for comfort and care and encouragement quite often.
Recently, Aiden disappeared from Venice with Alex Drake, aka Eclipse, son of Bobby Drake. They were reported to be seen leaving with none other than Apocalypse. Betsy was able to use the soul-pact that Aiden made with the Sultan (which she held due to her destroying the ghost) to break Apocalypse's mind control over him and Alex.
Unfortunately, when the boys went to help them fight Sinister and stop him from releasing a weaponized form of Kick into Earth's atmosphere, Sinister incinerated Alex and Aiden, leaving Betsy with two more deaths on her soul. Deaths that she avidly believes she could have prevented.

Vassily Nikolai Wagner, aka "Tails"
Vassily is one of the people that Betsy holds near and dear. A quiet, shy boy, she took to him immediately, wanting to protect him. She wants him to know that he is safe with the students at the school and they have struck up friendship. Vassily has always been there when Betsy needs him and she appreciates that.
Anna Summers, aka "Rock Star"
A former roommate and perhaps an unlikely friend in that she is an empath and Betsy's a ball of emotion, Anna is indeed the blue-haired daughter of her mother, Polaris. The relationship between her and Betsy has been quite up and down of late. The reason? What else? A boy. But, hopefully, they can get themselves back on track because they will need each other, that is always a guarantee.
James Harrison, aka "Chance"
A young man with a taste for the finer things in life, James is someone unlike anyone Betsy has met since coming to the school. Multi-faceted and opinionated, she cannot help but care about him, as well as feel guilt for hurting him romantically. Now, he's dating her former roommate, not to mention his intense dislike for her boyfriend. Noooooooooooo, that's not awkward at all!
Elena Storm, aka "Fireball"
Friends from when she first arrived at Xavier's, Elena has always been a stalwart figure in Betsy's life as an X-man. Always there to encourage, have fun, and provide a kind shoulder and listening ear, Elena is like the light that will always lead you home. Screw Galactus! He's not getting my friend!
