There are those who absolutely hate Adam and there are those who are reasonable and explain Adam. And I'm one of the reasonable ones...



Like HOW did he become like that?? In the freaking Black Trailer, he and Blake worked so well together! So much trust was in their partnership! They moved in and out of each other's shadow, covering for the other's blind spot and fighting against the robots to protect each other. There was also a small "joking" moment in the part where they said: "Looks like we're doing it the hard way."//"Don't be so dramatic." And Blake smiles! And before that train scene (which occurs in volume 3, chapter 7), Blake went up to Adam to ask what the humans who went to talk with him wanted, and in her previous "haughty" way too. She didn't look wary of him at all; she just looked suspiciously at him.



And the way how Blake acted and talked about Adam before he appeared in Heroes and Monsters described him as someone who BECAME a monster, and she left before he became any worse. Adam wasn't always like what he was in Heroes and Monsters! I speculate that something happened to him that warped his thinking so much. Maybe it was time spent with Cinder or observing how the White Fang is making changes.



I just want to know what happened.



And apparently, according to RT, he was always like that?? Like...really? He was?? He was an abuser? I don't believe it. Not by how they interacted in their past scenes and how Blake talks about him. (Also, if you bring up a reason saying, "But she could be talking about him slowly abusing her." I don't think so. Blake was talking about how Adam slowly got used to killing humans, and she didn't like that. She didn't want the bloodshed, and that's why she ran! She didn't want to be a part of it! Blake says the same thing whenever she talks about the White Fang.)



TL;DR -- Something happened to Adam after Blake left and he was forced to join Cinder's faction, and I want to know what. As Blake said, "There's no such thing as pure evil."
