i really like the form of the drawings, on how cartoony and easy it is,
Bianchis is way to serious and to weird looking for me,
But why didnt emma go diamond when they were knocking her out??
Perhaps in that reality, Cassie didn’t go poking around Emma’s DNA?
Cassie didn’t play with Emma’s DNA. She was feeding off of Emma’s survival guilt and giving her a reason to be loyal to her. Emma really did survive because her Diamond Skin/Form is a natural sceondary mutation.
When was it proven that her memory of the event was a false one? To me, it was more of Whedon shutting up everyone who bitched and moaned about how unrelated her two powers were.
No offense to anyone who bitched and moaned of course : D
I believe that although it could have been taken that way (and admittedly I was also one of those that mistook that ‘memory’ for what it was), but Whedon’s intentions are pretty clear in later scenes. Cassie knew exactly what buttons to push to help Emma rationalize why she is still alive to make Emma believe that she owed her life to her, and to make Emma more willing to serve Cassie if she believed she was secretly evil the whole time. She fed off of Emma’s biggest fear, a possible betrayal against the man she truly loves.
There is a condition which often affects surviving victims of terrible tragedies. I believe it’s a form of post traumatic stress syndome, most prevelant in children, where they believe that they had the information of what bad things were going to happen in advance, and could have even done something to save them, but were powerless or not courageous nothing to stop it.
Good point. In all honestly, I don’t really care if it was real or not, I just like how ambiguous it all was. Reverse Claremont at its finest.
