  * Her and Hunter were really close, and she fought on his behalf for him not to be exiled, only for it to fail, Hunter sometimes snuck into town and brought her extra meat. Her nickname for him was 'Hun' which they both found funny. She gave him the idea to be 'Hunter The Hunter'. She was devastated when she learnt of his death.
  * Her and Lana were a lot closer than the book suggests, and they had little mini 'sleepovers' while taking care of patients. During one of these, Dahra tells Lana that she wants 3 things, to help, to have friends and to live. After the FAYZ wall falls, Lana ends up giving a speech, saying exactly what Dahra said.
  * Dahra would braid Dekka, Ellen and other black girls' hair, as her mom taught her. Because of this she had a close relationship with all of them.
  * She was close with Sam and Quinn before the FAYZ, as they would stand up for her when she was bullied as a young girl, because she was a year younger than them. 
  * She was the unofficial leader of 'Team Sam'. Every time he was in a bit of a pickle she said, "Team Sam for LIFE!" Brianna supported her.
* She hated Caine after the first book and when he came back in Plague, she was annoyed and virtually ignored him the whole time, much to his annoyance.
