What about a high-entropy but suitable ship, like Sorting Hat/Voyager Horcrux? The intelligence without sentience and non-intelligent vital spirit seem like a perfect match for each other.

Perfect. (But I note that the sorting hat doesn't have intelligence. It piggy-backs off the wearer's.)

A relationship with a non-sentience doesn't seem to me to be something I'd really call a "relationship" in that sense.

Someone really doesn't like this entire branch of conversation. Even the parent was downvoted. (I went through and removed all the -1s myself.)
