How well do you feel that you were able to use your words to exert your power over others? How effective were you in bringing those who opposed you to submission?
Well, Beato did most of the work. I was just supporting her. But as a team, I think we did great.

What change do you feel in your understanding of the power that words might hold now?
There wasn't any real change. I was already well aware of just how powerful words can be, even if this was a different expression of that power than I'm used to.

What harm did your words do to those you faced? What benefit did you find within them?
We set out to avoid doing any serious harm and just have fun with these fights. Still, right at the start there were some problems. Our opponents used some words that hit on a touchy subject for us, and I think Beato did the same for them. Luckily we managed to defuse the situation before it got any worse.

Bonds

How do you feel that this game has strengthened your understanding of your partner? How has it been weakened?
We've already got a very strong bond. The game didn't have any real effect on that.

What strength do you feel you gained from the bond you shared within this game?
Like I said, it's a bond we already share. What strength we gain from it doesn't really have anything to do with your game.

Do you feel that there is another who would have been more suited to partner with you? What reasons do you have for thinking such a thing?
Nope. I'm not going to claim that Beato and I work together perfectly in every situation, but I can't imagine playing a game like this with anyone else.

Change

What changes did you observe in the physique of your companions? What do you feel was the criteria for such change?
Some people got cat ears and tails. It seems to be a sign of virginity.

How do you feel the treatment of those altered differed from those who were not? I don't think most people knew what it meant, so they mostly just thought it was cute. In a place like Aather, I doubt it would have mattered even if everyone had known, though.

If the private affairs of your fellow heroes and knights remained visible in such a way, do you feel it would be a welcome change? What makes you feel this way?
People have a right to their privacy, especially when it comes to things like that. So no, I wouldn't want it to be a permanent change.
