Friends, traveling companions, so close they might as well be family. You work with them day in and day out, and you wouldn't automatically call them friends because sometimes they get on your nerves and as friends you wouldn't choose them. So they become almost like family. People you accept as they are no matter what and you've always got each other's backs.

I guess they should come up with another word for it since no one seems to recognize that one, but I can't think of a better one, eh.
