So built a character that used AoO's to their advantage. Basically enemy attacks me using the broken wing gambit bonuses provoking an AoO from either me or my animal companion depending who they attacked.
Basically question is can you get an AoO with Paired Opportunist from your ally's paired opportunists AoO?
I made a flowchart of how I am thinking it works. would like a ruling.

Based on Paired Opportunist's restriction of "This does not allow you to take more than one attack of opportunity against a creature for a given action." I have the suspicion that they probably don't all work together well without a loose interpretation of action.
If it is based on a whole action including the attack and hit together, Broken Wing Gambit would proc giving the Animal Companion an AoO and would give your character an AoO with opportunist but Linnorm Wrath already gave you an AoO for the same action so paired can't proc. (Though the wording on Linnorm seems like it isn't actually an AoO but acts like one. In that case your AC an AoO, your character an AoO and an immediate action unarmed.)
If pathfinder counts being attacked and being hit as two different actions, which i'm not sure on, and if Linnorm Wrath is an actual AoO, then I guess both you and animal companion would both get 2 AoO but one of your character's is restricted to an immediate action unarmed.
I'm not saying I know for certain but I would most likely rule the two for you and one for the AC option myself.

Sorry, saw Linnorm style and that also had an AoO related ability. In the case of the other Linnorm Style and Paired Opportunist seem to be effectively the same ability, though Linnorm doesn't need int and leads to other feats.
So based on Paired Opportunist still, only 1 attack of opportunity for you and AC from the action of them attacking you from Broken Wing Gambit.
(unless you interpret "even if the situation or an ability would normally deny you the attack of opportunity" as bypassing Paired Opportunist, which I don't think was the intent.)
