Call me paranoid, but I cannot stop thinking about how Imogen's line of thought with the gem has progressed something like:
"I need to look a little more at this gem, I just need to make sure its not going to hurt me and my friends, just need to check." to
"This is definitely bad business, its promising things that are too good to be true- unless? Unless? What if it can mutate things from good to bad" to
"If it was going to corrupt one of us, it might be too late already, I might as well keep holding onto it, its probably better if I hold onto it."
Even with Imogen being careful, recognizing her doubts and instincts about this gem being dangerous and suspicious: There is a very specific blend of Imogen's anxiety, caution, and self sacrificial tendencies that feels like its being twisted to give the gem exactly what it wants- to be kept close, to be used, to be relied on.
And it is fucking terrifying.
