 friend-ships steven is easy enough to get along with. he has a number of allies, and a lesser number of friends. there is a distinct line between the two, and it's rarely clear exactly where that line is drawn between a friend he has great respect for and an ally he'll help out in their time of need. that being said, he has exceptionally few true friends, if any. these are the people that truly understand steven and his nature that is a bit more complex than the public sees. in return for their understanding and companionship, he offers his loyalty and trust, which is a hard thing to come by. be careful with it, though, as it it is the hardest thing to gain and the easiest to lose.
hate-ships there's any number of people here, they be team members, disrespectful people that cannot curb their tongue when needed, fans that cannot grasp the simple concept of a 'no' or 'personal space', or enemies of his friends. if you disrespect or threaten even one of his friends in any way, you will be on his 'hate' list for a very long time, potentially forever unless you do something stellar to redeem yourself. people who threaten Hoenn and anything to do with it shall forever remain on his shit-list, no two ways about it.
love-ships all his life, as expected of an heir, he has been set up with a number of fine young women with grandiose lineage in hopes of both adding to the tsuwabuki fortune through marriage and potentially producing a future heir to devon corp., potentially even an heir to whatever name-catching group the lovely lady is from. however, this is not what he wants. never once has steven been on a date or in a relationship with a woman that was of his choosing, and he is currently seeking (though subtly so) someone he feels would be capable of understanding him, as well as the other way around. similar interests are always a way to get past the nerd-exterior he has and delve deeper to the more quiet researcher in his heart.
other-ships just about anything you can think of. business rivals, family - specifically his father would be interesting - oh if he was in the Dream Eaters that would be one hell of a twist, etc. also a riley would be nice seeing as there's already a volkner (the NEET trio is win okay). if you come to me with an idea, the worst I can do is say no.

roseline & steven
inb4 i lose my nerves.
roseline's got two older brother who are currently running an extremely successful breeding company. they started out in hoenn, made it big, and moved hq to who knows where. i've got a feeling it's possible steven (or his father, whoever) has met them at least once or twice. perhaps, steven catches roseline's last name and thinks she's someone who is involved with the business and attempts to make conversation with her.
roseline dislikes steven - she dislikes everyone actually - but won't do or say anything too mean to him because she knows her brothers wouldn't like that. she actually knows little about the business but will likely dance around the truth for a while if he doesn't catch on. she'd probably be more interested in the stories of the places he's been rather than speaking business with him.

STEVEN | ROSELINE nerves what -- I'm not scary I promise.
as far as meeting people goes - for whatever reason, probably to get something from Devon Corp. that would help further their business/build a provider-buyer relationship - that would mostly have been President Tsuwabuki's job considering Steven made it clear he doesn't want much to do with the company until it's absolutely necessary he step up and exercise his role as heir. He has the breeding/training/whatnot to act like one but he chooses not to. He probably would be familiar with the name, though, seeing as he didn't very well pretend to be ignorant to everything his dad did lol. idk about convo about business though ;c Steven doesn't really touch on it unless something strikes his interest and he's willing to fund it. he's far more willing to ramble on about pokemon, rocks, or places he's seen than talk money unless necessary ^^

roseline & steven
roseline isn't all that big on business either, but she'd assume the quickest way to get him to talk to her is business because of his status and what not. she's not really knowledgeable in anything outside of breeding and big words she rarely uses. her social skills are pitiful compared to others, and she's got no idea how to approach steven without fearing she's making a fool of herself. successful people are scary, making steven 2x more scary than the normal successful person because he's been champion and is an heir to a successful business.
i'm --
look, you've scared me so and now i've got an artistic block!
on a more serious note, i've literally have no ideas. roseline is a bitch to plot, but i really want these two to interact some how because not that many people are in hoenn as often as those who are hoenn originals. plus, steven is an even better candidate for roseline because he's a former champion and (i assume) travels in and out of hoenn often to search for those rocks he oh so loves.

STEVEN | ROSELINE ahha assumptions driving actions eh? completely understandable really. tbh when I think 'steven' I think 'steel types' and 'business' and 'battling' and really only two of those three will get his attention. the business will earn her a quick evaluation through his eyes/words and listening to how she replies to anything he says to determine if she's totes serious or not. the nervousness is relatively amusing and once he picked up on that he'd be kind of amused and either subtly (or not so much) change topics off of business because business talk = boring.
&& he definitely goes international for the sake of his travels. he even re-bought a villa in Sinnoh's resort area after selling his original one to Platinum. he'd totes tell her about things. all she'd need to do is ask ^^
