Can we talk about Adam at this specific moment?

This was when Sienna defended him in front of other White Fang members for killing that human and they started calling him a hero for it. He looks surprised at everyone’s reaction. I doubt this was his first kill but I’m sure it was most likely the first time he’s being praised for it. He was probably used to Ghira scolding him for his actions given how he didn’t react at all before Sienna jumped in.

This was probably the real beginning to his spiral, he had the potential to become who he did and Sienna was the one who encouraged his behavior. I wouldn’t be surprised if Sienna had used Adam in order to get to the top but that’s a discussion for another time. Either way, it took just one moment of encouragement for Adam to continue down the destructive path he did. Sienna helped fan a spark that became a wild fire.

Im not defending his actions or anything Im just saying that he always had the potential to be how he is now but others had been holding him back until Sienna encouraged him.
