In all seriousness though, a troll ending on a story this long would be odd, too much effort to get enough payoff.
I think Vicky may be a bit more aggressive than seems reasonable when she knows Amelia and Taylor have some kind of instant communication. Even someone with Vicky's canon sense of invincibility would be a bit more circumspect in her threats in my opinion.
I mean if you think they are mindfucking people already, whats the chance of them being unwilling to do worse if you make things awkward.
I think you might be projecting your own 'circumspectness' onto Victoria here. She isn't -stupid-, but she is stupidly impetuous, a tendency that both powersets she's had encouraged. 'She just didn't think it through' is like her life story. If the threat isn't immediately apparent, forget it.
IMO, she is only noticably capable of reason when her feelings are not inflamed. She's just being an attack dog here, which I find 100% believable personally.
(Like Lisa or Contessa, Thinker powers don't care if you use them to be superhumanly idiotic, just that you use them. On reflection, being superhumanly idiotic may even be a positive in shard's view.)
I dunno if I've communicated that well, but what I'm trying to point out is that she is aware of 'bad things' but hasn't genuinely considered the possibility of those 'bad things' being applied to her; they are just fuel for her self-righteous behaviour.
It's like, you understand that at any time, a nuke could possibly be dropped on your head. But you don't -believe- that that could actually happen, despite the fact that if I ask you, you will probably admit the possibility. It just isn't real for her.
(Which is really understandable, actually. All the events that have happened.. most of them are probably not real to her either, they are just like statistics / trivia.)
