Stella Vermillion/Relationships

Ikki Kurogane
Stella's roommate/fiancé. The two initially had a rocky relationship due to Stella being angry at the fact that Ikki saw her half-naked and Ikki suddenly taking off his clothes to make the situation fair.

After their duel, Stella starts to develop an interest in Ikki which eventually evolved into affections, leading her to jealousy toward other girls that get close to Ikki. Her friendship with Ikki is shown in public for the first time, during Ikki's debut battle with Shizuya Kirihara, she screamed words of encouragement towards Ikki after he nearly broke down due to mental stress and widespread discouragement by the audience and snapped Ikki back in time, enabling him to win.

After Ikki's victory, Stella stayed with him as he slept due to fatigue and injuries. After waking up, he confessed his feelings for her and she accepted them, she then makes a promise to battle him once the festival is over without losing to anyone else up to that point.

Stella is able to further her relationship with Ikki, during Ayase's training in the public pool. Thanks to Ayase, Ikki and Stella had become alone, where they are able to confess what they have been feeling the entire month they were dating. With the revelation of their feelings for each they are then able to kiss each other, strengthening their relationship with each other.

After Ikki's match with Tohka, Ikki had proposed to Stella, wanting to start a family, and Stella gleefully said yes to Ikki's proposal. After which Stella and Ikki are able to show affection in public and Stella is eager to show Ikki affection and praise whenever Ikki does some affection such as holding her hand in public.

Ikki told Stella during the incident at Okutama that they shouldn't have a sexual relationship before meeting Stella's parents, which made her happy for being treasured by him so much. However, she had always wanted their relationship to reach the next level. When Ikki changed his mind after their match in the Seven Stars Sword Art Festival tournament final and wanted to make love to Stella right away, she happily accepted and the two finally consummated their relationship (Using up ten sachets of condoms/one box). The next morning, Stella was really happy they finally did it and that she wanted the pain from her first time to remain as long as possible, refusing to heal it with her own power because it was proof of being loved by Ikki.

When Ikki stated he will sacrifice himself to buy time for her to recover during the battle with Or-Gaule, Stella is deeply furious by how he has given up on keeping his promise and tries ragely to move but can't. The fact she was helpless as Ikki died caused her to be briefly unable to accept reality, but it quickly turned into rage and sorrow, achieving her Excessive Awakening. Stella bitterly lashed out at Ikki's remains for his breaking of the promise he had made to her, deeming his words selfish, and saying she couldn't forgive him for dying for her instead of being with her and even wishing she could just forget what she lost and the pain she had never experienced before that came with it. However, in the end, she couldn't bring herself to regret meeting him and chose to fulfill his wish but told Ikki, easily visibly angry, that she would make him regret not still being with her by becoming far stronger than he ever was. However, she was relieved when Shizuku revealed she could revive Ikki. Nevertheless, Stella remained angry at Ikki for what he did but in the end forgave him, remaining emotional to the point that she would have had an intimate moment with Ikki had her parents not interrupted.

Shizuku Kurogane
Stella and Shizuku are on extremely bad terms with each other, mainly due to the two of them being after the same man. Stella considers Shizuku a sick and dangerous sister who loves her brother incestuously, while Shizuku considers Stella as an eyesore for trying to take Ikki away from her.

Stella then begins to develop a certain type of understanding for Shizuku, as she finds out that Shizuku does not bear any actual grudge against the girls that get close to Ikki, but rather she is fine with it, as it would make Ikki happy.

Kurono Shinguuji
Hagun Academy Director. She informed Stella of Ikki's background and why he was holding back, as well as stating that Ikki even beat her in a match to help her understand Ikki's true strength, to the point it is comparable that she planned for the two to meet and fight to allow for both to obtain what they seek, Stella's desire a strong opponent to rise above. It is a professional relationship, teaching her not to judge a book by its cover, with Ikki, using the way Stella is described and comparing Ikki as the opposite, making a contradiction in the description.

Shizuya Kirihara
Stella does not like Shizuya, from the moment she met him, for the fact that he called Ikki a coward. This hatred of him only grew even more when she saw how he fought against his opponents, hiding in his area of invisibly, and continuously shooting his opponent purposefully not shooting any of their vital spots.

Ayase Ayatsuji
Stella initially dislikes Ayase, as she had stalked Ikki for a month. She comes to dislike her even more, when Ikki started helping her with her training as she was not only getting Ikki's full attention but also being touched by Ikki as well. The feeling of discontent turns to feelings of confusion, though, as she realized, thanks to Shizuku, that she was being very possessive of Ikki.

During Ayase's pool training, Stella somehow deepens her relationship with Ayase to at least a friendly level, as she was able to talk with her openly, and for the first time about her relationship with Ikki.
