Mokke/Relationships

Background
The Mokke were first debuted during the second episode of the anime and Chapter 2 of the manga. Their initial appearance was derived from the Yousei-san (The Faeries) rumor, where they were agglomorated together to form a monstrous supernatural with several limbs. After they were scattered by Hanako's hakujoudai, they returned to their previous forms: docile yet mischievous pink creatures known to have existed since ancient times. They claimed everyone was once a Mokke and took a great liking to eating candy or stealing stuff for fun.They can also be bribed by giving them candy as a reward.

Relationships
Most of the time they are seen following the cast around in the story, making comments and interacting with them.

Yashiro Nene
They first meet Nene in form of The Fairies or Yousei-san, in Chapter 2. Deriving from the rumors, they threatened Nene for catching sight of them before Hanako-kun rescues her. Thus, they turned to their original form once scattered. They apologize to her while sneaking in a bag of candy, to which one of them offers a piece to her. Afterward, Nene forms their new rumor surrounding their love of candy.

Hanako
Since they still have the tendency to cause mischief by stealing others' things, Hanako sometimes goes after them to collect the items they stole and return them to their former owners. He also caught them stealing Kou's earring, and he goes a hunt with him to find the earring. In the spin-off manga, they threatened to kill Hanako-kun (by suffocating him with warmth) so they could become a School Wonder themselves. When Nene and Hanako-kun interview them for the position, they claim they will destroy the world and make the humans work in their candy farms.

Minamoto Kou
The first time they meet Kou, he questions if they knew Hanako-kun in an intimidating tone. Out of fright, they flee, leaving their candy behind. But in the next chapters, they become comfortable with Kou and often follow Nene, Kou, and Hanako on their adventures.

Nanamine Sakura
Sakura uses one of the Mokke to insert a black paper crane into the bag of donuts Nene was going to give to Hanako. It timidly avoids Teru's gaze before successfully retreating to Sakura, receiving a piece of candy as its reward.
