Updated relations part but still a work on progress. My thoughts on Joseph Harrell: Alma would most likely stay away from him. She wouldn't seat next to him and most likely try to stay away from him avoiding conversations and interactions with him. Her reaction is judgmental, she feels uncomfortable around him, disliking his unkempt appearance, and having seen him drink from his flask she thinks, "He is nothing more than a alcoholic." And she has great disdain for alcoholics considering her personal experienced with one during her childhood. She wouldn't trust him or care to make friends with him on a personal level. My thoughts on Kyle Mare: He is quite handsome and I think Alma's loneliness may influenced how she feels around him. She finds him attractive, at least physically, but the condition of his illness is too much for her. In her mind beauty is wasted on him.
