Absolute banger of a prepub.

Hartmut's orgasmic reaction to being namesworn is absolutely hilarious.

Not telling Ferdinand about the adoption and the Zent candidacy....why, Roz, why? This can't be a good idea.

Telling her namesworn about her commoner origins...also feels like a bad idea.

Mother and Daughter:

Elvira knew the whole time?!! But also: holy shit, sasuga Kazuki-sensei! This was so touching. I think it may rival P2V4.

Elvira best mom? Effa best mom? Doesn't matter, they both love Roz.

Ottilie apparently rejected joining in on the name-swearing, so you have to wonder who was subjected to that experience.

I think she was the witness but avoided her eyes, and Roz was commenting that she should do her "job" of supervising it properly.

That's how I read it too. She was there, but upon seeing the weird look in her son's eyes, she turned away in disgust, while making a face, partway through, without leaving the room.
