Ana and Yuya are very cute together. I did find the lack of discussion of the utility payoffs in the climactic prisoner's dilemma to be a bit off-putting, why would we assume there are traditional payoffs, aren't they both happier if both they escape and survive than any alternate? I did really enjoy Ana's bodily reality influencing her perspective on the causal relationship though.
