I love how Zeke and Kristina became friends of circumstance. He's her closest thing to a best friend (which is why he is her best friend) and he has a good working and personal relationship with her, to the point she's one of the people who knows the extent of his Eldian Euthanasia plan. They are the type of friends who often agree to disagree without it affecting the bond that they've established. And they can understand each other's intents without judgement. And he does enjoy the fact that she willingly plays catch with him, much like Professor Ksaver did.

I think one of my favorite parts in working on their story is when Season 4 hits (because she knows what Zeke is planning and allowed herself to be an accessory to his plans) and things go so badly, she's stuck with the guilt of contributing to the destruction of Liberio and the deaths of many many people; especially her own students (Udo and Zofia).

But I also love how Reiner's able to make her confess what she knows because of that very same guilt. Imagine putting the most important people in the person that you love's life in danger. How do you take responsibility for it? Will you? What will you do to make amends? There's so many things to consider, and seeing growth to the character is always so fulfilling.
