One sprog volunteering means that one sprog volunteered, it doesn't say anything about the rest.

I say this quite regularly, but I'm not convinced Ciel is really a result of Noah's 'wish'. We don't even know if he actually gets a 'wish' do we? After all, since the Elf he's only used his power on a cow which was conveniently too weak to power a 'wish'.

Reiterating what I've said at least once before, I believe Ciel is some kind of magic parasite, aiming to take control of Noah.

Caveat: I may have mis-remembered some bits here. Feel free to correct me if I have. Don't have the memory of some posters in here.

Ciel has to be from the video game world that Tobi comes from.

I'm sure I said this when they had final tests.

She's just sharing a mind with Noah.

Poor Noah. And now to kidnap kids for an Empire.

Nothing will ever happen bad right?

So they *share* a mind...
I think this removes the possibilities of an another being's connection... Unless they are permanently linked.

Wow! Noah has a conscience. And the angle on his right shoulder (or left?) is advising him to ignore it.
Nice ;)

Ciel has a halo *and* horns, so she can be the shoulder devil and the shoulder angel at the same time. Efficiency!

But yeah, Noah, it's like this: you succeed at the mission and break up a family, or you fail and you get executed along with your classmates as the Veda project is canceled. Which is least bad?

I hope they do not have neuroleptics in the Empire, otherwise someone finds about Noah's problem and he will be medicated to death.

@Conchord
The inside of your mind can grant you wishes that only pertain to the inside of your mind. This isn't even a magic power, it's just how the mind works.

I find it easy to believe that Noah gets an unlimited number of "wishes" that only affect his own mind/perception of reality, but is limited to his standard powers for affecting other people.

Hey Ciel! Don't mix your mind with Noah's mind! He also has the right to have an own mind! :)

Can't help me but the last smile of Ciel looks kind of evil to me... o.o

I guess Ciel's Noah's untidiness.

Whelp, now I suspect the same thing that Noah is worried about. That Ciel is just a magic-construct of his subconscious built to make obvious the things that his conscious mind ignores.

@Conchord
His wish was that he wanted an easier way to talk to Ciel. Ciel became noticeably weaker because of the cow's simple mind, but his wish was granted: he can talk to her in reflective surfaces now.

“...Change our mind...” seems like an odd way to phrase things. Did you mean “shift our thinking”?

Noah should remember, that while the scenario he proposes is plausible, there could well be some in the painter's ranks already considering taking the empire's offer of employment. Free food was enough to persuade Mr Kimberly to join up after all.

@Conchord: The cow did grant a wish, that's why Ciel is visible in the mirror now. http://neorice.com/hoh_noah_598

There may indeed be more to Ciel than has yet been revealed of course. Something worth noting is that she initial referred to Windows as Minori: http://neorice.com/hoh_noah_314

@Neorice: Mabel is my favorite of the other students because she makes Noah uncomfortable in the funniest way. Ciel has a lot of work to do before she can catch up with that.
