Michael: We are friends, right? Like Ross and Phoebe?
Eleanor: Weird combination, but okay.
Eleanor: Weird combination, but okay.
People that are kinda friends but not really: Even within the same friends group, there are certain subgroups that don't talk much! For example, a group of three friends may have lively conversations on a train ride when all together, but when it's just two of them they fall silent. This is precisely the relationship between Shirogane and Iino!
Holt: Well, if you must know, I was having lunch with Boyle.

They’re at the risk of fracturing, Jake knows, into separate teams. He and Ax hang out, map Yeerk Pool entrances in dog or human morph, watch TV. Rachel and Tobias seem to be living out of each other’s pockets, spending all their free time so entwined that Jake doesn’t know whether he should be worried. Marco and Cassie are satellites, isolated from the team except on missions. It’s not cohesive. It’s not coherent.

Kel: You know, it's kinda funny! I can't remember the last time it was just us two. I mean, we see each other a bunch, but it's always with the others. And when we split up it's usually me and Sunny, and you and Hero, or you and Aubrey, or...
Mari: Don't worry, Kel, I get it. And now that you say it, you're right, I can't really remember either.

"You'd think that they get along since they always act as a team. But word is that on their off days, they do their own thing and barely even talk."
