Ryoko/Relationships

==Crew of the Falcon==
===Isaac Shepard===
When she first met Isaac, she didn’t realize he was the captain that not only outflow the New Order Warships including a Ctarlplexian battleship, but also managed to take down an entire fleet of pirates without killing anyone. She was a bit calmly stunned to see someone of her age in command of a ship as well. She was so intrigued she had forgotten her dislike/phobia of men and took his hands: a thing she never did before. The first sign she was quite taken with him. She even offered to have him and his crew join her: another thing she never did as most of the crewmates she has joined her by asking. Though she was a bit disappointed that he wouldn’t join but understood his reasoning and calmly and reasonably accepted his choice. Before they left, Tak, Ragit, and Chunk asked for a group shot, of which she had a copy of once they left. Although despite the fact that someone like Isaac and his crew be in the pirates’ database as a future enemy, she kept a delay to it.
She even deliberately failed to add the Falcon and Isaac's name in the Galuma Guild's enemies list.
Later on, she meets him again, but this time in the disguise of another woman, an identity she called Ersha. She served as an informant, but used it as an excuse to learn more about Isaac.
A few months had passed as she learned about his exploits, and it was in that time, she fell deeply in love with him. Though she didn’t really know about it, excusing it as heartburn and flushed faces. When Tarant suggested Ryoko kill Isaac Shepard, she almost refused, but learned earlier on that he imprisoned the families of her crew and threatened to kill them if she didn’t kill Isaac or die trying. She was stuck between a rock and a hard place with this decision: her crew’s families or Isaac. Either way, she would lose people important to her. Using her disguise as Ersha, she accompanied the young man in Yorkton on a shopping spree to help him shop for girls better. During that time, Ryoko was starting to feel flushed and light-headed, never realizing that her crush/love for him was the cause of it. Though at a jewelry shop, it was then that she suddenly realized her feelings when she fantasized him putting on a necklace for her and about to kiss.
But when the time came and she was about to kill him, her heart was breaking that she had to kill him. Though when he gave her a simple star pendant, she was overcome with guilt and shape over what she done, dropping her disguise and confessing to Isaac on why she had to kill him. But it shocked her further when he said he understood, saying that to him his crew is his family and that there wasn’t anything he was willing to do to protect or save them. This furthered her realization in her love for him, and planned to kill herself, effectively preventing both lives; for if she died then Tarant would have no choice but to let the families go.
Though she was saved by Isaac and Kori (who had followed and listened), and taken into custody, but from what the GR head said, she would probably be let off easily as most senior members had a crush on her. After her release and made a privateer pirate to the Alliance, she was allowed to patrol any sector of space, she naturally chose the area that Isaac’s crew were stationed in.
She is devoted to Isaac, as she was willing to sleep with him as her way of paying back his kindness to him. Her feelings and devotion are so strong, that even though she was invited to come back to her home planet of Baltar, she chose to stay with Isaac.
To her pleasant surprise, however, despite his lack of dating experience, Isaac actually courts her by taking her out on dates to colony space ports, fancy restaurants, and even romantic locations. She notes that his care and attention makes her feel ‘like a real woman’, a feeling she had been convinced was gone for good as a pirate.
At times, she likes to use her transformation modification to roleplay with Isaac, though he gets a bit reluctant as he’s not sure if he’s okay with this. Though Ryoko uses this at first to help Isaac ease out of his anxiety around the other girls. But later on, they’re both okay doing it as a romantic hobby between the two.
Their feelings for each other progressively grow into love and affection, though this also has her in conflict with the others. Despite not being as powerful as Kori or Lumi, she still stands her ground in harem bouts, as Jeff jokingly calls them.
