What if she just made everyone believe she did with her telepathy? Would Xavier have allowed her to teach at his school if she had? Adrienne Frost would be a great choice for this mistery character, the older Frost, manipulating the youngest... I kinda like it.

On some level, yes I believe so. However, Cassandra did say something about how she could wipe the memory of their meeting from Emma's mind if she wanted to.Abaddon said:So the implication has been that Emma was aware of Cassandra's plan of attack?

BrianWilly said:Unless that entire memory is just fake and Joss gave us four pages of fake flashbacks to give a fake explanation for a secondary mutation, Cassandra Nova is very real right now.
SMroxs said:I don't think it's all fake, but I do think parts of what is happening to Emma right now might not be real. I don't think the Hellfire Club really exists in this form... Shaw, Nova, Negasonic and Perfection. Negasonic was dead. Dead, dead. Emma held her glass-impaled body in her hands in Genosha. She can't be real now. Admittedly not that that has stopped Marvel before. What purpose would anyone have had in bringing her back?
I think Cassandra is manipulating Emma. Perfection will probably turn out to be Jean. Not the REAL Jean, but an illusion Cassandra is using. For as perfect as Emma thinks she is, think back to Phoenix Endsong when Emma had to unite all of the X-Men in mind to tell Jean how much they loved her. Do you think Emma has ever felt that kind of love directed towards her? I believe her quote was "God, Jean. How does it feel to be loved that much?" Even though Emma thought Jean was manipulative, I can totally see her secretly desiring to have the sort of revered status that Jean does among the X-Men. So to her Jean would be a pinnacle of perfection of sorts. Not necessarily in character because Jean had her flaws, but in the sort of hero that Jean was. The kind of hero who sacrificed her life for the universe.
It may be a wild stretch, but if Shaw and Negasonic represent Emma's failings then Jean would represent what she wants to be... perfection. And Cassandra is using that desire to her advantage to manipulate Emma.
Feel free to laugh when I'm totally wrong. Just my own theories.
I don't think she is. No more than any normal woman manipulates her man, anyway.Abaddon said:So how would this tie into the notion that Emma is manipulating Scott?
Chamber_UK said:Well she seemed to detect Emma's thoughts regarding Scott, when Cassandra didn't.
