Kevin: Kevin's thoughts about Magneto are extremely complicated. On one hand, he respects Magneto for being alive as long as he had, holding things together - or seeming to, and for doing the things he's done in his life.
On the other, however, is Kevin's growing mistrust of most adult mutants. He's not sure he can trust Magneto with everything he needs to. Some things are impossible to hide - his powers being the most obvious - but other things Kevin is terrified of Magneto finding out.
And then there's the fact that Magneto kept him from bleeding out during that raid on SERO. Kevin will never forget the feeling of being unable to move, or the feeling of his blood pooling underneath him and knows Magneto is responsible for the fact that he's still alive.
He's not sure why Magneto did that, and is utterly convinced there's an ulterior motive. He's paranoid to the point of almost needing medication about it, honestly. But he knows he can't live without some things Magneto can get him.
Like I said: complicated.
For the time being, Kevin is glad to have the choice of distance, because getting too close to Magneto is dangerous in his mind, and not because of his powers for a change.

So, yes. She has her issues with Magneto. There are times she grinds her teeth and keeps her mouth shut, instead of getting in his face about something. She knows it won't do any good, and she's coming to learn that if she's patient, and asks, she'll get a lot more than if she's popping off and giving him a new hair do.
Though sometimes she really wants to.
With Warren's arrival, she's really had to evaluate why she defends Magneto, and why she trusts him. And she's learning some things about herself in the process.
There's no denying that Magneto and the X-Men will always have their divide. But to her, the divide isn't so much a canyon, but a line in the sand with a rising tide. She's not sure she will ever wholly trust Magneto. There's too much past between them for the complete and total trust she would give, say, Logan or even Scott.
However. She does trust him. But she trusts him for who/what he is: A survivor, a leader, someone who's been there, done that, bought the t-shirt, burned it and then went back. She has no illusion that she's curtailed any of his behavior in any significant way. But she's coming to understand that, just like Logan, he doesn't go off the deep end/do something just because. There's reasons behind it.
She loves Magneto. She does. But love doesn't always mean agreeing, or even supporting. It means warts and all. Some people just have more warts than others.

And then, the whole situation with Crowley happened.
That was when Byakuya grew vastly disappointed in Magneto. He didn't - and still doesn't - understand Magneto's motivations behind that. Frankly, he doesn't care. He feels that was an act unworthy of someone who claims to have evolved from/past humans. It was an unworthy act of a true leader, and more the act of a lowly follower attempting to gain the attention of an idolized ruler.
Will he still help Magneto keep peace on the island? Yes. Does he believe that Magneto knows what keeping peace means? No. He doesn't.
no subject
She only cares that Magneto helped her with the garage. She only cares that Magneto comes over and enjoys the simple pleasure of taking something that doesn't work and making it work.
Other than that? She's really quite neutral on him. She's not involved in most of his drama, so... yeah.

And Ellen too hohoho
no subject
She's still forming her opinions though, so this can always change.
Ellen: Ellen isn't quite sure what to make of a young woman who walks into that dive she was working at, dressed like that. The girl's either got balls of titanium, or was looking to cause a fight.
She hasn't decided which yet.
Warren/Angel
no subject
Feels:
She loves Warren. She loves the person he was when she showed up and he barely talked to her, and she loves the person he became, strapped to that gurney in the medlab of the mansion refusing to let Annie take the tubing out so he could just keep trying to save everyone's lives.
She's just... not sure what to make of this Warren, who is from the Mutant Massacre, who doesn't have the history she does, and who she both wants to shake and protect from the future forever.
At the same time, she's jealous. Because she knows how vulnerable her feelings are right now, and Warren could fill several voids, but she can't, because... Paige.
Then, there's his feelings about Magneto. Warren is making her evaluate everything she's done since Magneto has arrived, and making her face some things that she was really good at ignoring! DAMMIT! She's an X-Man, they don't evaluate feelings! IT IS JUST NOT DONE!
And then... he makes her sad. Because she does know what awaits him. She knows that there's Sabretooth, Apocalypse, being blue, and all these other things that are waiting for him... and Paige.
Okay a lot of her feels are wrapped in the fact that she had a crush on him first and he dated... Paige. Okay? She thought Jean owned him body and soul and he dated Paige.
And she's scared he'll leave, because she has sided with Magneto. Because she's chosen to show a united mutant front that he hasn't had to face yet. And it makes her scared and trying to hold on tight and not let him as close as she feels like he already is.

...and Livio and Jubilee, I suppose.

On the other, though, that scares the hell out of her. She knows she's dead back home. She's not sure she wants this to be her reward. And that makes Slade dangerous. Dangerous to her, her daughter, the boys... all of it.
But she understands the quiet, stoic, no-nonsense thing he has going for him. And that she appreciates more than she can say, so she'll show it by making the bar as demon proof as she can.
Livio and Jubes: Oh god, she finds him so adorable with his stammering about nude models. She doesn't get it, but that one conversation means she'll try to talk to him again. People who have modesty? FASCINATE her. She kinda wants to put them behind glass and study them. Because, she doesn't understand it.
So, she'll keep an eye out for him, and try to learn more about him. Simply for the "WHAT IS MODESTY" thing.

Okay, Byakuya has gained a grudging respect for Nel. Not just because of Gohan, but that's part of it. The other part is that if half of what goes on on the Network happens as Las Noches? She's got her hands full enough with Luppi and Szayel.
He would never admit it. Why? Because she's still an Arrancar, and he will never get over that prejudice - a lot of which extends from Aizen's betrayal - but the grudging respect is there. It's part of why he's willing to stay on his side of the line as it were.
no subject
Nel...is also thoroughly confused by Hattie's crush on Byakuya. Her friendship with Hattie adds a whole new dimension of awkward to their tentative arrangement. XD

That out of the way:
Ellen is interested in him. Most of the wrestling back home is fake, a farce put on to make people lots of money, and it wasn't always like that.
She knows there's more than a few things they don't know about each other, and she is very comfortable with that distance. It makes sense to her. She only got overly friendly with someone at her Roadhouse once, and look where that led her (even if she doesn't regret a moment of it).
She is, for the first time in a long time, looking forward to going out in more than a Mom/business owner capacity.

The other thing he envies is the fact that despite his rabid hamster crazy tendencies, it seems like everyone likes Deadpool - genuinely likes him. It's something that Kevin wishes he had, even here in the port.
The big thing, though, is that Deadpool came and saw him in jail. Barely knew him and still he came, which is a lot more than a lot of the senior mutants did for him back home when he was in the custody of the FBI.
Then there's baking. Kevin likes a guy who thinks nothing of shoving a gun into someone's mouth and then going home and having a complete meltdown about NOT ENOUGH NUTMEG OMG! (He imagines Deadpool does that, he doesn't know. It's comforting.)
The final thing about Deadpool is that he found out about Kevin's mutation, went "Huh, that sucks. I'll make you muffins!" which is not something that Kevin runs into a lot. It, again, was comforting.

The thing is she never expected to like him, or trust him, as much as she does. Yes, he can get exceedingly violent, and can go overboard, and is basically a bag of rabid weasels at times, but she's starting to understand the flow of his crazy. She also knows that some of it is an act, and some of it is because Humans are fuckheads of the highest orders and seriously, Weapon X. Let her hatred of them flow.
And then she got hurt. And Deadpool seemed genuinely distressed over that. That's what made him family. Not his kicking in her door when Light left - though that helped; not his grumbling-but-still-run for ice cream moments. When the chips were down, he didn't run, he stuck around and carried her to Magneto and then came to her birthday party.
She knows she has him to thank for her recovering at all, let alone how much she has.
There are still times when she just wants to bury her head under her pillows and go "NOPE NOT DEALING" when it comes to Deadpool. There are other times when she wants to throttle him and shake him.
But, to her? That's what family does. She will never turn her back on him. She won't always agree, she won't always approve, and she certainly won't always roll with what he does, but again, hey, that's what family does.

But, there's also something very nice about hearing the southern accent and someone understanding that fried okra and chicken and dumplings is food you just curl into and find comfort. Plus, peach pie.
McCoy is one of the few adults that Kevin trusts - to a point. But he's still hiding things, for fear that McCoy wouldn't understand and would abandon him. But when he said his door is open to McCoy? He meant it. His door and his hospitality are open, any time McCoy wants it, and even if he doesn't.
Ellen: What little they've talked, she likes him. When he commented that the only way to deal with showing up here was to drink, he put himself right at the top.
She's going to hold him to that drink though. And if he doesn't show up soon, she's probably going to track him down with a bottle of whiskey and a couple of glasses.
She's also glad to meet someone who is like "DAMMIT CHILDREN". Makes him very Bobby-esque in her estimation and that's a good thing.
