User blog comment:Neowitch/757 - The most disappointing female character in all of OP/@comment-1595565-20140820143237

Someone seriously doesn't understand the effects of trauma on the teenage psyche. The death of her mother shocked and terrified Rebecca to the point of feeling helpless. Therefore, when Lanky McChin-job brings it up and associates himself with it, that's going to shock and terrify her as well. It's basically classical conditioning. You mention Vivi but Vivi didn't have mommy trauma to deal with. I'm not surprised at all that Rebecca reacted the way she did considering the circumstances, especially since we saw how she reacted to the exact same thing during the colosseum fight, and she at least had a little moral support back then. That, and the fact that Kyros said he was going to be the one to kill Diamante, so Rebecca would have just been killing time and if she did kill him, Kyros would be all like "Bitch stole my vengeance!"
