Takuma & Shiki

Shiki and Ichijo maintain a close friendship. Partly because of the fact that they are roommates and also because both of their families are on the side of the Vampire Council. When Takuma was cut during his birthday party, he let Shiki lick the blood off the wound, signifying a close bond. Ichijou also noted that Shiki seemed rather attached to him.

When Rido (possessing Shiki's body) met with his nephew for the first time in ten years and Kaname attacked him, Ichijo shielded Rido, not wanting to let Shiki's body be harmed in the conflict between the two Kurans.
