These are possible plotlines that could happen.
Feel free to suggest if you have an idea.
Thibault's journal can be found here.

Options...
Sparring partner/partners - someone who will challenge him, push him when he needs it. Someone who does not take it as serious as he does, but is still on his level will probably work as well if not better than someone who is as serious as he is. To be honest once he has decided to go assassin, any assassin he spars with will be for the purpose of learning their strengths and weaknesses as much as the challenge against his own kind. He is quite certain that should an assassin ever go rogue that it will be an assassin who is sent after them and even though they are 'brothers', he will not hesitate to do what is necessary.
He will hit a girl if that is who he is sparring with. He feels that if they did not want to get hit, they would not be there. It is logical that they accept the consequences the moment they step into the ring. A female swordsman who can hold her own against him will have his respect, but he will not pull his punches with her. He will not with anyone.
By the same token, the instant the match is over, it is finished and he will walk away from it the same as he had entered. If he was on the receiving end, he will learn from what happened and use it to his advantage the next time. He does not get pushed to anger during a fight, but is actually even more cold than normal.
Enemy - Maybe later, depending on personalities of others.
Friends - Someone amusing without being a deliberate clown/fool. (Flamboyance is one thing, a fool is another.) That person would be a good foil to his quietness and see the wisdom in the things he does whether in free time or pushing the limits. Thibault would be a voice of reason, so someone who could actually pull him into having fun.
Someone who doesn't mind his quietness from time to time though they can continue to chatter on without bothering him or even just sit quietly with him knowing that's what he needs.
Lover - This could be interesting whether male or female. Thibault has bedded a few girls. I say bedded because it was more payment for his help than anything else. There was no closeness in the mix. It will take a lot of time and patience to get his attention and even more to get him to commit. He will be brutally honest and the person must have the patience to deal with that.
Example... His lover might ask, Do you like what I'm wearing?
If he did not, Thi would say, No. You look the fool, but then the height of fashion is like that.
And if the lover is angry because of the reply, he would not understand it. He answered the question as they asked.
To him it was logical to tell them the truth and he simply would not understand why they had wanted him to lie to them and he lacks the finesse needed to do so.
A mother-hen type whether male or female once partnered with Thi, would be amusing as he would take it, but give a look that says it IS annoying. It would be logical that he allows it to happen since they are a couple, but Thi would only be pushed to expressing such himself if it was a life-threatening situation aimed at his lover and then it would be more guarding than mother-henning.

Mission/Quests
I'd eventually like to see something where he has to deal with obeying an order to protect his brother or sister just to add trouble for him. It could be based on their stupidity that has gotten them into this mess or something entirely by accident. I mean I'm guessing there is the chance they are sent out to do things and then brought back to the island.
1. He wants to find some extra clothing to wear whenever he's outside the school. He's tired of the uniform already. Something that would allow him to blend into the populace of the city more and be more comfortable for him.
2. He wants to find a way to listen in on one of the big meetings that the higher level people go to so that he can find out exactly what is going on there on the island.
3. I want to find a way where he actually has to protect either his sister or his brother after he's been gone awhile. They could either have been brought to the island secretly to be questioned for information they have or thought to know something they do not. Just thought it would be interesting at some point after he's changed more to see how everything is dealt with.
4. He needs to be sent out with some of the others to do something as a test for working in a group. Not everyone will work well in a group, I think he can, but he will not like doing it.
5. He needs to eventually create his wrist mechanism. I think there will be much trial and error there. He will probably need some NPC interaction there.
6. He'll keep exploring the various areas until he knows them like the back of his hand.
7.
