As for how many pages a Jewel Seed gives, it's dependent on what the JS was doing, and how it was sealed, and some other stuff. The BoD wasn't meant to use things like JSes as power sources, so when it absorbs one, and it hasnt been sealed yet, the Book will get pages relative to the amount of power it was putting out, and if it was running out of control or granting a wish properly (for a given definition of properly). If the JS has been sealed, it wouldn't provide any pages unless it was activated first. If they can do this, they could get maximum power out of the JS, as they could turn up the output as high as it could go, and then absorb it. Unfortunately, they don't know how to do this. (Yet, anyway). That said, with a viable alternative for filling up pages without harming anyone, (and a rather traumatic introduction to the world of magic) Hayate wouldn't object nearly as strongly to filling up the Book. She is also going to be looking forward to learning how to fly.
For more focus on Hayate's viewpoint, how would you suggest I go about doing it? I'd really like to, but I've got her frozen in shock for a good bit of the scene, and this is all happening really fast, in around twenty to thirty seconds. Maybe if I reword some of the descriptions so it's clearer that they are supposed to be coming from Hayate?
