A big part of Nozomi's character (at least for me, as I understand her), is her fear of her proclivities being exposed, her perceived obstacles to enjoying her mind and body as she wishes, and her uncertainty surrounding her desires, and the nature of her fetish (being Erotic Hypnosis.)
This is a topic that hits home for me, personally, having grown up in a home having to suppress my own desires, and fearing what others would say or do, if they knew about this side of me. I think that, through her experiences with it, and her own interest/horror over what the MC does with it, is part of what makes her "best girl" in my mind, and I'm super pumped to see what other adventures/fetishes are written in the coming months.
Fingers crossed for more hypnosis-to-hypnotize others! love that stuff. btw the robot route in this project was absolutely 👌👌
