I've been away from the forums for a while, so I don't know if this has come up...
I'm a bit concerned with Roko engaging in this apprenticeship, but not for the reasons most others profess. Basically, it's the old saw "familiariity breeds contempt". Bear with me a moment, before you decry.
It's often the case that becoming intimate with a process (pun intended, I guess) can take all the "mystery" out of it. That, and the repeated intense contact with her
objet de désir may have a psychological effect similar to acclimation, where the effect gets less intense over time.
Maybe that's her intention - to get control over this uncontrollable effect. But maybe she's just trying to get closer, and this will be an unintended consequence, leading to a loss of something precious.
