Kokoro's Pronouns

When Kokoro starts saying 我々, is it appropriate to translate that as "we"? It's obviously different from her normal pronoun, and Mamizou picks up on it, but I'm not sure if that's appropriate. That's what I did on my first translation but then I had second thoughts so I changed it. And now I'm having third thoughts so I changed it back. Anyway, thoughts from someone else?Clarste (talk) 05:54, 29 May 2013 (UTC)

I suggest 我々 be translated directly as "we"; Kokoro's identity is unstable or suffering in this situation, so the number of what she calls herself is also unstable. And this is a guess, but this usage of first-personal pronoun is a parody of Venom, the rival of Spiderman. --masuo64 Talk 17:45, 1 June 2013 (UTC)
