THE CR TL;DR MEME
HOW IT WORKS:
1. List your character(s)!
2. Others respond with "what does your character X think of my character Y?" or some variation.
3. Respond to them! Break out those teal deers!
4. Generate some discussion about your CR!
5. PROFIT!

ZATANNA ➢ KYLE
FAMBLY.
Seriously. Having grown up an only child, Zatanna never knew what it was like to have a sibling, much less a wonderful, slightly protective, slightly dorky and yet still cool Big Brother. She adores Kyle to know end, and isn't afraid to tell him she loves him because she really really does. They've been through so much together. Good and Bad. Especially bad, because given their personalities, those were some serious issues on both ends that they needed to get through. Not just the respective worlds they came from, but their different personal experiences with the subject (and Zee's strong bias towards wanting to "protect" Jack, whom she saw as a "little" brother at the time). It was a lesson they needed to learn. And, it might have taken forever, but I think they're both finally starting to learn it.
Together.
I think it also says a lot that, when they were talking about other people "abusing" powers, they fought horribly over their respective stances on how to respond...but when Zatanna actually screwed up in her own right? He forgave her. No fighting. Just understanding.
But beyond that, even just being around him in the downtime consists of some of her favorite Turtle memories. They lived together, and because it's them and they already had the relationship they had, there wasn't the slightest bit of awkward between them. It really was like an older brother and sister taking care of each other. I still go back to that one thread where she woke up in the middle of the night to him painting in the dark, shirtless, and how his state didn't even faze her because she was used to Kyle being Kyle, and just remembering how completely touching the whole scene was. The way they hugged each other and talked about things and just ugh.
She talks about him as if he really was her Big Brother, too, btw. There's actually a thread with her and Dick trick 'o treating where she jokes about being banned from wearing fishnets until she's thirty, and Dick asks if Kyle said it, and she comments about how sometimes she thinks he forgets he's not ACTUALLY her brother and she wouldn't be surprised if he tried to give Dick a Talk. (Then they started talking about how entertaining his visual aids might be and something about frog porn and verbal hilarity ensued, but the point is that Kyle was thought of).
And now, with this whole latest setback with the ghosting and the Loss and everything...I really, REALLY want her to go to Kyle (after she goes to Dick, of course) and talk to him about things. Because this was her first experience being manipulated and having something taken away from her and the fact that it was the memory of her most important person on the entire Turtle is basically going to crush her and she won't admit that he was right because then she'd have to admit he was Right, but she's going to go to him because she'll know he'll know what to say. Hopefully.
Basically, big brother Halp. :'(
MIDII ➢ KYLE
Kyle is one of the few adults that Midii currently...okay, maybe not trusts (not as much as she'd trusted Miri, if only because she'd seen Midii's Death/Dream world and learned about her past), but considers to be someone she could go to if she needed help. I think one of the biggest highlights of their current CR was the fact that Midii saw his Death/Dream world, and at the same time, he learned a lot about her just based off her reaction. Or, I guess, rather a lackthereof. Because he had been so surprised by the fact that she was drawn to that horrible door, and when she opened it and looked inside, not only wasn't afraid to wander in, but took in everything around her so calmly, it was pretty obvious she was used to that sort of surrounding.
If he ever confronts her about it, she might tell him. Not the whole story. Not about the Captain and the Betrayal or maybe even Nanashii, but about the War and her little brothers and maybe even her Papa. About how she still feels guilty every time she eats a whole meal and has leftovers, because she'd had to put her life on the line just to make sure her family would be able to eat at all. Why she gets to survive and live in a place that is so much better than the world she came from, and they--more deserving people--were left behind.
Most because she suspects that he might be able to understand.
AYA ➢ KYLE
I've got two words for you: MEGAZORD LANTERN
Okay, but seriously (sort of), I'm kind of amused by the fact that Kyle and Aya met at a not-so-great time, and yet it didn't seem to make much difference. Because the very first thing he did was tell her something she hadn't even realized she needed to know, and then immediately reacted in a way that implies he's accepting her for it. Because, really, that's all Aya wants in life. Love and Acceptance. She's a complicated little bb bot, with very simple desires. The fact that Kyle is a former Ion host with an inherent connection is just going to make their CR all the more popcorn-worthy, because it means they will share a bond like no other. And I kind of like that. Aya has very few people in canon she can call close. Hal, Kilowa, and Razer. That's it. But Kyle easily has the potential to join that list, because in many ways, he will remind her of her Papa. Mostly good ways, of course.
MIDII ➢ MONET
First impression can sometimes leave a bit impact, and I have a feeling that with these two, that will definitely be the case. The short version is that Midii actually kind of likes Monet a little bit. Physical appearances and body language aside, she's smart. She doesn't mince words. She respects knowledge, and was ready and willing to offer to teach Midii by the end of their first conversation without the immediate promise of payment of some kind. (Midii is not above accepting charity if it's in her favor, though she wouldn't object to repaying the kindness at a later time, if possible).
I think what interests me particularly about these two is how, as you mentioned in plurks, Monet really isn't fond of kids. Then again, Midii isn't your average child. It's almost as if their personalities are somehow able to overcome any initial hesitations because they sort of get each other, even if only on that intellectual level. In time, I can visualize the respect forming. The sort of relationship that Midii might be able to form with few others. Trust may or may not become a factor for the Big Things, but for the small things, Midii may eventually look to her for words of Wisdom or even just Advice. A lot of it will depend on Monet's future reactions if and when she starts to learn more about the tiny blonde, but if things keep up on the track they're currently on...this could make for some really, really good CR.
(Then again, it's us, so can we really be all that surprised?)
