| | In acute crises, she is unlikely to go into hysterics, and indeed may seem level-headed or even cold; this is not indicative of lack of empathy, but simply a core practicality, even in the most extreme cases. In some cases, she can be shockingly blunt-spoken. It is only when her worldview is shaken that she is truly bothered, but she is extremely resilient. These are excellent qualities for a magical girl. | | In acute crises, she is unlikely to go into hysterics, and indeed may seem level-headed or even cold; this is not indicative of lack of empathy, but simply a core practicality, even in the most extreme cases.

| |
| − | After discovering the existence of her [[Empathy Organ]], she has become wary of even her own intent, beliefs, and of her relationship to [[Asami]], as the latter probably started as a result of rewriting her own pref-spec.

| − | Ryouko's main power is that of teleportation by wormhole. Under normal circumstances, she has a (record-setting) maximum range of 200km - enough to get her into low Earth orbit - but as the limiting factor is her ability to warp space, much larger ranges are theoretically possible depending on the situation. (Indeed, she destroyed this range in the [[Battle of Orpheus]]). | + | Ryouko's main power is that of teleportation by wormhole.

| − | A weakness of her teleportation is that she must teleport herself along with the targets, though with Ceph-communicated information received during [[Project Armstrong]], she gained further knowledge and observational ability and was able to remove this restriction. Additionally, [[Blink Technology|blink interdictors]] disable her ability to create wormholes and teleport (ref: {{ch|62}}). | |

| − | She also has a climatic attack (ch 2).

| |
| − | ===[[Asami]]===
| |
| − | After having been brought into the MSY fold, she'd meet a meek magical girl with a great interest in Xenobiology, [[Nakihara Asami]], who had hoped her craft would bring her to the stars. She grows increasingly closer with the girl during the initial training, later assisting during the defence of the HSS Laplace and remaining by Ryouko's side on [[Acheron]]. It is there where she makes her affections towards Ryouko known during a visit to hot springs, kissing Ryouko, and leaving it up to Ryouko as to whether she'd reciprocate. Asked to reckon with what she wants, if she could even want to be with anyone, and after some contact with the Goddess, Ryouko attends Asami's resurrection and comes to reckon her wish, how she wanted to find her place away from earth, how she can no longer even return home after the divorce of her parents. She comes to learn that Asami was possessed by similar thoughts, with her unable to stand her altered family. Her worldview shifts, some part of her mind alters, Clarisse is confounded, as Ryouko decides then and there to become Asami's girlfriend.
| |
| − | | |
| − | There is some natural tension between Ryouko's general want to be in "combat-mode" and Asami's worry about the inherent dangers of such situations, but this is discussed rather maturely and the relationship stays solid and stable throughout the story so far (as of Chapter 70).
| |
| − | | |
| − | ===[[Clarisse]]===
| |
| − | As part of her induction into the magical military, Ryouko was implanted with the V1.8 [[TacComp]], though this would be upgraded to a V2 by one [[Joanne Valentin]] at the request of her father. Unlike the initial model, the V2 TacComp would get a name, with Ryouko deciding to name her Clarisse (after one of her childhood heroes) at the TacComp's suggestion. Clarisse stays by Ryouko's side (and on her spine) for the rest of her life, offering plentiful conversation in all things, from battle tactics to relationships, consoling Ryouko in her many times of need.
