“I think we could all use a little more weird in our lives.” -Fitz Vacker, Exile

Fitz was the one to find Sophie Foster in the Forbidden Cities on a school field trip. It is said in the Prelude of Keeper of the Lost Cities that Fitz is Sophie’s first elf friend. Despite him finding her, Sophie and Fitz didn’t actually talk for a few months. Sophie suspected it was Biana’s doing, considering how the girl seemed to hate her. Fitz and Sophie started talking again after Sophie accidentally used a brain push on Fitz during PE, causing them both to get knocked out.

When Sophie was kidnapped, she had managed to reach out to Fitz from across the world. At first, he thought it was just mind mind messing with him; but he eventually realized that Sophie was really alive and in danger. He found Sophie just in time and helped save her life.

After Alden’s mind broke, Fitz stopped talking to Sophie, blaming it on her. However, when Sophie fixed the problem, he reached out again and tried to become friends. Maybe even more.
