I believe I've mentioned this a long while ago (if not, I'm not sure why I didn't) that in human form, Faite is now limited to changing only what's around her. So her abilities are now more flexible than they are powerful. As a spirit she can be everywhere at once; but not as a human.

Obviously that makes her a mismatch for competing with the Hooded Hood, who, if properly irritated, could change something in her life at a distance and make things miserable for her. He already did, in fact. He thought it was amusing to retcon her teenage self a set of parents and then kill them off, so she starts out her new life stuck with a set of heartbreaking memories. She knows he did it, and she's really annoyed, but can't do anything to fix it. Presumably there's some reason, but she only knows that he did it because he's a complete bastard.

On that same thread, Danny's denial power is far-reaching. If he denies something in Faite's presence, she can...not quite reverse it, but reconstruct what he did and recreate how it would have been before. Naturally that's not always possible to do, especially when it has consequences that have already been set into motion (that's related to why Faite can't fix a lot of what the Hooded Hood does).

The reason why she looks up to the Psychic Samurai, and is training with her, is she's fascinated by Chiaki's ability to solve problems without making a single threat, or ever drawing her sword. Or more specifically, using a bare minimum of energy and power. Faite is drawn to that, because often when she's unable to make sweeping changes, she might be able to make small ones that cascade into something bigger.





Tying into what I said about her looking up to Chiaki, that's the kind of strategy she might try to emulate with Grimpenghast. She knows she can't really beat him in a power-vs-power fight. So she'd ask herself, "What would Chiaki do?"

Which in this case would be either try to convince him, or just waste his time long enough for more help to arrive. If she has to, she might be able to fight him to a stalemate, but it's risky. Also, Chiaki would say to know your enemy. Faite knows Grimpenghast fights unfair, and that he has no stake in the fight; whether he wins or loses, it makes no difference. So fighting him is not a smart course of action.





Faite is well aware of the unfairness of it, which is why she's so withdrawn most of the time. Chiaki is doing her best to convince Faite that's part of being human - the ability to worry about things like fairness. And that it's good she has a conscience.





If that's the case, FA might steer clear of Faite at first because she's had her fill of cosmic-anything. Then when she realizes the tragedy of this quiet girl who wears torn jeans and wrinkled t-shirts all the time, she might sort of adopt her as a little sister, at the very least to teach her how to dress.





Faite wouldn't be a a danger to Kerry. She'd probably like her, because Kerry says anything, just like she wishes she could do herself. It's a learning experience for her.

Really Faite couldn't care less what Danny does. If he goes out of his way to piss her off, she might try to quietly expose him as a liar...but she wouldn't own up to it. She's too scared of what the others would think of her for it. It would be enough that Danny suspects she did it.





Mostly it never occurred to her to blow anything up.





At the very least, Lara can teach her to frighten away stares, rude comments, and undesired hitting-on with just the right stare.
