[ It would be so easy for Nonon to just tell Madoka to switch to something useful or something that benefited her and she wouldn't feel that guilty for it, but she's also not uncaring enough. She likes Madoka a bit too much for that. ]
I think someone mentioned it during the trial. That for wishes to come true and for whatever world the winning god wants to build to be what they envision, their followers have to believe in them and their vision...
You should pick based on that, if you want to be in line with the god's competition. Someone else thinks a specific god winning will have the best chances of everyone's wishes being granted at least a little, but that's up to you, too.
You've already made big decisions regarding your life, haven't you? Ask yourself how you want to play this game. As the gods intended? Or what?
But that's the thing - I think that any of the gods would do a good job. When they have so long to learn to work together and they're forced to dedicate themselves to whatever world has been created...
I think I could align with any of the gods and believe that they have a good reason for guiding the world the way they want to. And that all the other gods will help to keep things balanced, no matter who's really in charge.
... I don't intend to try to break the rules of this game, but I don't feel like we're doing the right thing just going week by week and hoping for the best.
They all have their ideals, and none of them are the worst, but we have to make a choice. A winning god can grant smaller wishes and favors to even those that aren't their followers, if they choose to.
[ If they choose to is the caveat. ]
If you want as many wishes granted as possible, your long game is to get as many people to believe the most in one god. In the god you think who will make a world that combines what everyone wants in some way.
What I believe in... How I believe in people... isn't really in line with this competition. If I'm real, they don't line up 100 percent with any god here, but that's fine.
The god I like most is Love. That's the truth, and that's why I'm with her.
[ Madoka nods, because she's kind of with Nonon on that. Her own morals and the way she looks at the world now - it clearly doesn't quite sync up with what it seems like they wanted.

[ there's no judgment in that question whatsoever - she's just curious about Nonon's thoughts on her own alignment, now that they're further along. ]

She looks pleased by Nonon's answer, honestly. ]
That's how I feel about Cunning, right now.
no subject
Really? I think he's fine, but you know he's an asshole, right?
[ Nonon prefers assholes to nice people more often than not. ]
no subject
Is he?
He seems nice.
no subject
Yeah. He's not a bad guy, but he's still an asshole.
[ ... ]
What do I seem like to you?
no subject
Nonon-san?
Well... You're smart, and pretty, and so confident. It feels like you're really in charge, you know?
no subject
I'm all that and more. [ She's too self-assured to appreciate Madoka's cute assessment, and that's terrible. ] But I'm also an asshole.

You saw me with Indulgence, didn't you?
[ She was a terrible bully, not that Nonon would see it that way. ]
