Members below The Dragon (e.g., Quirky Miniboss Squad) suggested to be in a physical relationship. This can be overtly sexual even if it would seem squicky; they're villains after all. If planned in advance, they're designed with an audience fetish in mind; height, coloring, and personality rules for Yaoi Guys or Schoolgirl Lesbians apply. Occasionally, both reform, and they just become an inseparable duo among the main character's group of friends. Exactly how "close" they are will often become a running gag, although of course the lead character is too pure (i.e., stupid) to notice.
