a really belated answer to this because [lol game fallout], but!

Obviously Shrike likes Sekhmet, ahaha. She was already inclined to be kind of generally interested in what was going on with her after they ran into each other at the big information distribution thing at future is now, since her understanding of religion and cosmology mapped reasonably well to Shrike's own. Shrike's also the sort of person that really can't ignore someone else suffering or going through some shit, which was the big reason she went to find Sekhmet after seeing her on Ruby's live—Persephone came and brought her tea once when she got her first kind of fucked up memory, so she figured she'd pay it forward.

When she found out what had happened in PPP, it was a little bit of a relief actually that some other people here who are nice shy folks are also kind of fucked up inside, because she herself is still dealing with the general sense that maybe existence as a whole is Bad, actually and she should maybe put herself and everyone out of their misery if she gets the chance, which is a different but similarly alarming internal fuckery. Being afraid of oneself is relatable hahaha

Also Shrike enjoys that Sekhmet is sort of a similar personality type of quiet and easily flustered, but different in that she's very straightforward, which makes her easy for Shrike to feel comfortable with. She pretty much knows where she stands with her, but doesn't feel that in a way that's overbearing.

Also I joke that Shrike's type is small pretty people who can top the shit out of her and that... is really honestly a joke that's also the truth and applies here, because Sekhmet has that assertive side.

reverse CR, tell me things~
