From early on in the game Jael always told me not to trust you and it was the one piece of advice she gave me that I didn't listen to. Your public persona and your private persona were vastly different. In private you were a savvy game player who managed to make it to the end, while your public facing persona was a happy go lucky, k-pop recommender and nickname giver. I admit that it fooled me because I viewed you as a 4th to the alliance of Loki, Jael and I. My plan was to go to 4 with that group and then cut you at 3. You proved to be very savvy and a fierce player. You were one of the people I constantly rooted for. Which moves that you made are you most proud of?

In our talks throughout the game, the topic of how brutal and hard Survivor can be as a game to us soft-hearted folks came up a few times. I also know you had to make many hard decisions on your way to this position.
What was the hardest decision you had to make this game? And what made it so hard? Do you regret any of the tougher decisions you had to make?

Hi there. You know, your speech is something that I've seen a lot of and it bothers me every single time. The thing that people liked about you were the personas you were playing up, walking into an FTC and dropping them like MUAHAHA I HAVE FOOLED YOU ALL AND YOU ALL BOUGHT IT leaves an incredibly bad taste in my mouth every time, and you are no exception. That being said, I'm not surprised that this calculating "people are pawns" person was behind those personas, I already knew you only saw me as a pawn to be sacrificed at the ideal time, and so glad you've actually stated that to be the case. I really should have been Cassandra instead of Jael, cuz I warned a lot of people about you, and none of them took me at my word. But I suppose in a way, that's impressive in its own right. I don't know that I have many questions for you because most of the ones I had involved whether or not you legitimately cared about a lot of people, and your speech told me that you did not, and that's a weight off my back for sure, so thank you!
I suppose the question I have for you is, you played an incredibly risky game that could have exploded in your face several times over, did you feel that you had to play that way?

You proved to be very savvy and a fierce player. You were one of the people I constantly rooted for. Which moves that you made are you most proud of? I knew right off the bat that that alliance didn't serve us and it feels good to have those suspicions confirmed now. I will take this as a compliment because I really didn't want to be pegged as the fierce game player and wanted to give off that persona of an innocent player you think you can cut while making moves that clearly told otherwise. Because Hathor and I managed different parts of our game, I'll answer this separately and speak about my personal achievements and allow her to come in with her own. The moves that I personally am proud of were all strategic based. I was proud of organizing tribals to get what I want such as Radiance going home when half the tribe didn't vote, and P&D going when half the tribe had an extra vote. I balanced the twists of this game well and still had tribals go in my favor despite the game trying to shake things up. Both Radiance and P&D going helped propel us forward as Radiance being eliminated lowered the overall Jotunn threat level, and P&D going took out a player that was targeting our allies. -Maat |

I don't really have any questions for you and really just came in here to say I read your speech and you played a phenomenal game and am so proud of you!
I do want to make one minor correction to your speech because I am a pedantic asshole: if I had won the FIC, you 100% would have been the final juror instead of me.

I also know you had to make many hard decisions on your way to this position. What was the hardest decision you had to make this game? And what made it so hard? Do you regret any of the tougher decisions you had to make? I think the hardest part of this game was how real each and every alliance and relationship felt. Typically, when I play games alone, I think of players as pawns and pieces to be moved around and that shows. I never had alliances that seemed built off of a genuine friendship. Hathor brought that element to the game and complicated the entirety of Survivor for me in a beautiful way. Voting people hurt, genuinely and frustratingly. We wrote our messages together when we voted people out and talked about eliminations for hours. This was the hardest part of the game. Usually, I can set up a plan and just stick with it for a tribal. Here, I had to explain myself, pick apart my reasonings, understand a counter argument, and only then could we solidify a plan. Voting out you, Poppy, and Perse back to back to back hurt as we started compiling our thoughts together and letting each one of you know why we made the decision that we did. However, I don't regret these decisions because it led us to this point of the game and a journey that we are both proud of creating. -Maat |

We had to argue and be honest with each other before we brought it to the game, but every decision was made with genuine intention. -Maat |

"The target changed from us to Cerberus but we didn’t get the full info on why that changed." Me. The target changed because I asked them not to vote for you. I think I told you this at the time, that I was getting involved with their underdogs alliance because I didn't want them to vote you out. Did you like... not believe me.. That you were the first and only person I told about voting Cerberus to, while panicing because I'd just stabbed what was my best friend, for you, and he was still there and I had no idea what the fuck to do in the situation..
What is wrong with you? Seriously you sound like a fucking robot, did you not notice I cared about you at all?

I have the same demand of both of you: make me give a shit about why you should win this game. I had no connection with either of you and quite frankly no reason to vote for either of you in any way, shape or form here, so my vote is live. Earn it.

You proved to be very savvy and a fierce player. You were one of the people I constantly rooted for. Which moves that you made are you most proud of? Hi Hermes!!!! Our public persona was mainly me and I think I wasn't that savvy game player ... perhaps you are talking about Maat? But if you do think I, Hathor, am a savvy game player, thank you for the compliment!!!! Our public persona wasn't something fake at all though. It was absolutely genuine. I struggled on many occasions trying my best not to go on and on about Kpop because Kpop is my actual love. Our long term plans FOR SURE did not match up with yours and we even heard that Loki tried pushing us before he went out. Thank you! And I am personally most proud of the way Persephone and us mended our relationship. I think that in survivor, a lot of times people who hate each other are forced to work together and we were in a situation where that could've absolutely been the case. But we genuinely believed in this new connection and that is something really beautiful. -Hathy |
