If he ever gets to date Guest, he will absolutely dote on them. He loves Guest so much that he thinks of nothing else once he returns to his room. He does not discriminate against the humanoids at the institute but doesn't get particularly close to them either, maintaining a professional boundary. He is a latent sadist.

Guest considers him a best friend, but internally his romantic feelings are smoldering. He fulfills every wish and whim of Guest, even while grumbling about it.
