NAOTO IS PRETTY ALRIGHT. She isn't okay with the entire situation! Some of these games/persona aren't cool, and the set-up is a little frustrating, even if she can see the rhyme and reason to it all. She's getting more upset at how physically disabled she is. She can't move how she wants, can't think of what she wants is, and has a brief memory of what was right. So, Naoto is stuck examining every moment in fine detail, like how she walks or sits, and she just . . . Doesn't know. The scar is actually the least of her worries, because she seems to have been in combat a lot; it happens! On the upside, she really isn't missing home or anything about it. I mean, there are trees here! And that's kind of awesome! She isn't too bothered by the people, except when all the boys hit on her . . . , and she can adapt to everything else. Like, the games aren't such a huge deal, because she had the run-in with Lion! So, she learned immediately where she draws her lines, and will now fight tooth and nail to have it Her Way. So, yup, she's doing a-ok.
Back at you on Ginshu. Also, before I forget, talk to me about why it took so long for Hermana to switch teams. I think I saw you talked a little bit about it on Plurk . . .
Look how I cunningly waited to answer this until the answer was not "PASS." Uh, she's getting better, I think. In addition to a fix-it thread with Bonten so that she gets some of it out in a healthier way, her threads with Naoya and Koumyou are turning out really helpful. She's still struggling, but I've got a lot more hope at the moment; she's probably never going to lean so heavily on her team specifically again, which is good.
Hermana took so long because of inertia and the fact that she was told very early on that this is a super-serious decision-- but it's never one she felt was super serious. \o_O/ So clearly she wasn't thinking about it hard enough! If that game hadn't happened, she probably would have continued being Onyx-in-all-but-name but might not have actually switched over. The game refocused her priorities and, yeah this is something that's important to her.
Does Naoto have any thoughts on the Onyx and Sterling divide (or nondivide, rather)? And will Vincent try to kill Alice again?
Naoto doesn't really . . . She doesn't like Maleficent, but it doesn't bother her that some people want to serve her instead of Beauty. I mean, it's not like Naoto has even meet Beauty. (HAHA.) So, she doesn't see any issue at all. She may develop something later, but everyone seems to intent to do their job which is the most important.
And Vincent . . . Can't directly touch her right now. Even indirectly, he would probably get caught at it. So, he's going to leave her be, but if the opportunity arose . . . Eh, he probably wouldn't even then. It was such a rash decision, and he learned well not to indulge in those. So, he will bide his time and wait, like he does.
S-Scale of one to ten, how bad did Ginshu break with Marie and Gojyo gone?
