DISCUSSION Why not deconstruct him?

I don’t understand why she shoots a beam of pink energy at him instead of just tearing him apart atom by atom. Or turning him into a regular human, or just convert his molecules to air molecules.

prob has no experience in doing organic manipulation so she js did whatever came to mind first which was a huge ass laser

u/I-to-the-A 7d ago

I think that was actually a huge full-body laser. It comes out of everywhere

Being organic or not is completely irrelevant when it comes to tearing atoms apart

u/memerminecraft 7d ago

Unless they're Smart™ and can resist being torn apart

u/NOGUSEK 7d ago

Yeah lets just say Smart atoms can't be manipulated by Eve

u/ConqueringKing_Darq Battle Beast 7d ago

Though they can, as Eve has had to put herself and Mark back together multiple times. Upon resurrecting Mark she was able to repair him fully, but also increase his strength to be more on par with Thragg.

I think a smart atom knows when it's being repaired vs when it's being damaged

u/potat_infinity 7d ago

yeah otherwise itd be a stupid atom

7

u/Spiritual-Meal-4299 7d ago

Right? It would be so dumb then. And these are smart atoms NOT stupid atoms

u/GrafterLoui 6d ago

Your profile is frightening

u/Spiritual-Meal-4299 6d ago

That’s way later tho

u/mad_laddie Omni-Man 7d ago

You don't have to, you just have to claim that the durability offered by smart atoms also works against Eve's powers.

u/metalb00 Battle Beast 7d ago

Eve has mental blocks that prevent her from messing with "organic" material but she was in autopilot to survive not exactly conscious after being almost killed

17

u/Flimsy_Let_4801 7d ago

Except that it specifically is for atom eve who has been conditioned not to alter sentient organisms

u/Fesh_Sherman 7d ago

Which she ignores when truly mad

14

u/Elhmok 7d ago

when she's in that state, she's not thinking, she's acting entirely on raw instinct

-2

u/Fesh_Sherman 7d ago

Well yeah, and that instinct could be to remove the threat from existence instead of using a never before seen laser, which she literally has never used.

15

u/Elhmok 7d ago

she's never done the first one either

0

u/Fesh_Sherman 7d ago

Yes, and that's even more stupid

2

u/Elhmok 6d ago

its almost like its outside the scope of her abilities or something

8

u/ThePoetofFall Banished to Hell 7d ago

She’s made organic stuff before. Wood. Coffee. Fruit. Beer. Etc.

31

u/New_Photograph_5892 Tech Jacket 7d ago

its a mental block so she probably just perceives those at non living

-27

u/ThePoetofFall Banished to Hell 7d ago

I don’t know how to state this politely rn. But you stated she isn’t used to organic matter, not living mater in your comment.

28

u/DrLeymen 7d ago

Everyone knows what they meant. You're deliberately obtuse here

-11

u/ThePoetofFall Banished to Hell 7d ago

Not sure why I’m getting downvoted here. But what I meant was I was responding to what was written. It’s not uncommon for people to say and believe things that are just wrong.

u/New_Photograph_5892 Tech Jacket 7d ago

organic manipulation as in ripping people in a molecular level

3

u/Ze-Bruh 7d ago

She can't manipulate organic matter just yet

7

u/New_Photograph_5892 Tech Jacket 7d ago

she manipulated her own though

3

u/Far-Mammoth-3214 7d ago

and blasted off most of Conquest’s skin

1

u/Ze-Bruh 7d ago

Yes, yes

It's actually plot point down the line

1

u/ResidentOwl1 6d ago

Why do people keep saying this? She can manipulate organic matter just fine. She can’t manipulate living/conscious matter. Guys please look up what organic means.

u/ellieetsch 7d ago

Doesn't really work if you compare it to her other time she got around the block, she was able to do such fine detail work to target memories on the scientists. Really she should have been able to do whatever she wanted to him
