what does nazuna think about mademoiselle during his valk days? and how would he talk/interact with her post-war? I imagine he would find the talking thing concerning at first, since it indicates such a shift in shu’s mental state, but it warms my heart when characters close to shu treat her as a person
I think it's pretty likely that Mademoiselle rarely talked during pre ! era Valkyrie, to the point where Nazuna may never have even heard her speak until after the fall of Valkyrie. My personal interpretation is that Mademoiselle as an alter came around earlier in Shu's childhood and then was dormant for a while and really only came out when he truly needed her (which would make sense after the trauma inducing execution by ex fine). I talk more about that specifically in another ask, I'll link it at the end.
I do think most of Nazuna's interactions with Mademoiselle would be in ! era. I recall Shu saying something like he avoids Nazuna in ! era because he doesn't want to be rude to him and he was still mad at Nazuna for leaving. I don't think Nazuna has the same attachment to Mademoiselle as Mika does, since Mika interacted with her a lot more. I think he'd definitely have some discomfort, I can't recall much of Mademoiselle directly speaking to Nazuna but I know she's talked around him before like in Song of the Garbage Dump. I think Nazuna would be a bit uncomfortable with Mademoiselle, mostly because he wouldn't really understand what she was, but he could tell Shu's mental state was not the best. I think over time he would definitely warm up to her.
