camaraderies
Shared group warmth
Camaraderies is the plural of camaraderie—the warm, easy fellowship among people who spend time together, especially colleagues or teammates.
The plural is rare, since camaraderie typically functions as an abstract mass noun.
When pluralized, it usually distinguishes separate instances or types: the different camaraderies of the locker room and the boardroom.
