"I know masochists - or rather, 'submissives', which is the more precise term for the relevant part of what Carissa is, correlated with masochism but not identical to it - and I read reports on Sevar and yourself, I guessed what had probably already happened.  And then I had Security ask Sevar if she had, by any chance, tried to tell you, possibly several times, that you could do anything you want to her, including killing her, if she thought you were ready to hear that part, and she confirmed that it was so.  It is a very mundane form of pattern-seeing that rests on having seen many such relationships play out, rather than coming here from another world; but not, I think, less reliable for that.  To be clear, I am not saying every submissive is like this, but Sevar is, and I can recognize that."

"There are, I suppose, other possible interpretations of why a submissive would give herself entirely to a man, whom she somehow happens to be very attracted to, who coincidentally happens to have de facto absolute-power over her.  But given that Sevar has in any case told you to do anything you want with her, I don't see why you would be worried that I am, say, trying to lure you into doing too much to her, more than she wants, which is itself a rather odd thing for me to try to accomplish."

"The part where her new dominant, that's what you are, does not understand that he has de facto absolute-power over her, where he does not understand that this fact is itself something that she needs in the foundation of her sexuality, seems like something of a Fireball trap waiting to go off in somebody's face.  I am trying to defuse it."
