As a whole, Crane really likes Takshaka! She appreciates that everyone is on the same page when it comes to morality, for the most part (well...in that they're all not willing to kill people over shards, at least), and they've got a pretty decent track record for winning games so she thinks they're pretty capable. Also a good half of the team is as much of a cranky old lady as she is, so she's glad to have some upstanding moral citizens around.

I don't think she'd go so far as to say that she considers any of them friends or trusts them yet, but that's also in part due to the fact that she doesn't really....have mental constructs for what friendship or trust is like, so it's not really a particularly negative reflection on her opinion of Takshaka.

Reverse, I guess?
