The advice I got was to be reverent. You don't have to sing her praises and you can be a little casual, but whereas some of the gods here treat us as relative equals, I get the feeling that Ruin enjoys her status as someone above us. As she told me, if she becomes ruler, she'd treat her subjects well... because they'd be worshiping her.
For the most part, I just kind of smiled and nodded, non-literally, and came out in her good graces. [a beat.] Then again, she apparently likes Takaomi as well, and I don't know if that guy can even stop being rude, so she might not actually mind some attitude?
[he shrugs.]
Anyway, you'll know you're on her good side if she gives you a nickname. On the other hand, I've been told she can be contrary and that it's not always immediately obvious when she's angry, which is all the more reason to tread carefully.
And it's because at a first impression, you seem like a small, defenceless girl who's too good for this competition. Therefore, you're the one person deemed undeserving of harm, unlike some of the jerks here [ex. ray], and who should be protected.
[ she kind of knows but it's still kind of super embarrassing to be talked about like that... oh well... she doesn't even know what to say about it so just. brushes past. ]
[use it to your advantage, madoka!! <- ray's esteemed suggestion]
With a limited amount of emotional effort to give, it's generally easier for people to sort others into how much they do or don't deserve what they get—or, at least, how big of a deal any harm that comes to them is.
It's better to have balance. I never would have been able to do the amazing things that I've done if it wasn't for having someone else - someone totally different from me - working so hard on her own.

... I don't think... a god like that would be good.
But if you have advice, I'd still like it.

[ but, Madoka gives a shallow bow--! ]
Thank you. That's helpful. I think.
no subject
... No problem. You know how many people would be after my head if Ruin cursed you?
no subject
It's nice - but I don't understand why people are so... [ gestures?? ]

At least, that's my guess.

... None of us deserve this. Even... Jerks.
