F Support - Enemies
Oliver isn't exactly the type of person to acquire enemies very easily. He's generally a pretty pleasant and easygoing kid,who tries to see the best in anyone. However, nobody gets through life loving everybody, and there's a few types of people that Oliver would rather not deal with. First of these are genuine, true blue villains, or at least people described as such. As a hero first and foremost, Oliver thinks its his job to stop these kinds of people. However his perceptions are somewhat guided by what others tell him, and he may be more guarded when dealing with someone he'd otherwise get along with famously just because enough told him "they're a bad guy." The second group of people Oliver generally stays away from are jerks. While he'll try to befriend most people he meets, he'd prefer to avoid anyone who directly tries to do him harm or insult him. Also, anyone who hurts Old Bess will receive no mercy from him. That mule deserves respect.
C Support - Acquaintances
Oliver loves meeting new people! He can be a bit eager, and a bit too much of a talker, and sometimes a show off when he sees a chance to impress people, but that's just because he knows the value of a good, solid first impression. He's pretty amicable and friendly, even if years of being mostly alone have left him somewhat socially awkward. He also enjoys helping people, and will often drop whatever he's doing to go lend some assistance to anyone he needs. Overall he seems like somebody trying to play hero, and while he doesn't usually succeed its obvious his heart is in the right place. The main exception to his grandstanding is if he meets somebody so impressive he knows he doesn't have a shot of ever impressing them. Then he knows his place and reverts to a more quiet, almost reverent self.
B Support - Friends
Oliver doesn't usually feel like he has as much to prove when dealing with people he's already established a relationship with. A lot of his awkwardness and put-upon usually passes away, leaving a calmer, more genuine Oliver in its place. The heroism they see is less grand gestures and flashy cape poses and more offering to help them with their goals in life, being ears for them when they are sad, or simply just spending time together. However, Oliver can also get a bit protective over his friends. Seeing them threatened might be enough to set him on a quest for revenge, and if they're hurt? Forget about it! Oliver is also very quick to forgive his friends, and unless they do something especially cruel nearly never gets mad at them. While a bit of a thrift with his money, for friends he'll spend like a king.
A Support - Brothers-in-Arms
There are some people who Oliver would put his life on the line for. Oliver tries to befriend everyone he meets, but only a precious few become his confidants and comrades for life. Despite being naive and innocent, Oliver can be surprisingly closed with his trust, especially when it comes to his emotions. These people have pierced those inside barriers, and know Oliver at his most vulnerable, insecure, or scared. At the same time, however, these are the people who Oliver will stay by the side of no matter what. For his closest comrades Oliver will even break his usual black-and-white view of the world. Dark secrets that would shake his faith in a mere friend would simply be accepted, and quests Oliver would otherwise never consider would be taken if asked for. Whether giving up on his ideals or simply developing them further, it is interactions with those he holds closest that really change how Oliver sees the world.
S Support - Romance
Oh god this kid's already hopeless enough, he'd be even worse when it comes to matters of the heart. His nerves, unsubtleness, and bravado from meeting a new person only intensify if he ends up developing a crush, as if unsure that the real Oliver'd be enough to impress somebody he cared deeply for. These moments of sudden hyperactivity are punctuated by moments of quiet thoughtfulness, which some might misinterpret as standoffishness but is simply him worrying and trying to think of the proper action to take next. He's never entirely sure what he's doing when it comes to dealing with people, but love only makes it all the worse for the poor kid. Once he becomes more comfortable with himself such things are very likely to change, but for now I doubt his first romance would be a smooth ride. He's just too immature and not self-assured enough, but anyone willing to try is welcome to prove me wrong!
