Alicia Pelkuri: At the start of her career, Rory warmed up to Alicia after being captivated by her tech skills, and her ability to accidentally break noses with a volleyball. Once training is over, they browse sports imageboards, burn Miranda CD's or pass by the worst parts of town to ogle drunk bums. It is only with Rory that Alicia can comfortably bring her snarky side out.

The Ryan family: Misanthropy is side effect of growing up in a mad family comprised of vitriolic matriarchs, psychotic cousins, drunk uncles, a fishmonger dad who died a ridiculous death, and a brother who witnessed all of the above times 10. Mammy Ryan is the face of the sibling's nightmares, yet the only person they're absolute lapdogs to.

As a kid, Rory clung to Aran Ryan like he was her ticket to the outside world, away from a lifetime at the stenchy family docks. It was boxing that tore them apart when he stopped coming home after making a childhood friend kick the bucket. It was also boxing that brought them together when Aran finally called her after a year of radio silence, informing her that this new WVBA place was quite grand and he was planning to invite her, but he forgot to add minutes to his phone.

Seeing how dim his sister is nowadays, Aran takes it upon himself to guide her through the WVBA's ins-and-outs. However, since he veers between exposing her to carnage and limiting her interactions, Rory can't see his underlying affection and thinks Aran became yet another lunatic trying to intimidate her. Although she's put off by his manic mood-swings and superstitions, she subconsciously models her career after him and yearns for the day he fears her back.

Little Mac: Despite his lack of ulterior motives and humble origins, Rory sees Little Mac as the WVBA's glamorized pet with a streak of luck. She's particularly disdainful of him getting too chummy with Alicia — a fellow sports prodigy, which results in Rory antagonizing him and rooting for his downfall.

WVBA: Rory aims to fight in the male division one day to "cover all grounds", specially now that Little Mac has been pushed into the female division for business' sake. Her main target is Soda Popinski, Aran's closest pal at the association. However, Popinski won't take her sparring offers any time soon —nor allow her near the crueler boxers— , and would rather watch Rory struggle to deadlift or cough up a sip of whiskey.

The remaning spare targets are Masked Muscle and Don Flamenco, but she's not keen on making such aggressive advances on her celebrity crushes (and her brother's less-than-favorite rivals).
