A Moment with Andrea: Samus Aron

General
You know a lot of people really like and admire her. But Frankly after closer inspection I wouldn't touch her with any part of my body I wouldn't want blown off.
You know that girlfriend? The one that makes everyone jealous because in public she looks cool and hot, but then later she in private she showed off her crazy behavior?
Lets just recap: Her mom and dad were killed by pirates. Thats enough to make a batman or superhero with a tragic past right there. but it gets better. She was raised by weird bird aliens. Then when she was old enough to take care of herself and got a suit the pirates came and killed them. So imagine your own family was killed off and then you were raised by a foster family, and then those same people that killed your parents came and killed off your foster parents.... entire race. Thats enough for a survivor guilt complex x10. Thats also not counting the amount of carnage she has done in all her games AND being mistaken for a guy for the first few games, which means other people have done so a ton. Not to mention she has to kill the ghosts of her foster parents race Metriod prime.
Now given she can somehow contort herself into a ball and strips naked when someone beats her but... doesnt that in itself sound rather unstable? Also thats not counting The Other M where she sounds like an emotionless husk that has to make some kind of maternal reference or word the WHOLE dang game. Like a girl who lost her baby. Oh yeah, that brings up how one of the creatures she had been killing for several games took her as her mom and then died.
So Samus has more baggage than a airport. Emotionally unstable, homicidal and tends to blow up ships, stations and planets when she leaves them. She is like an evil deathstar girlfriend, but instead of trying to destroy your life its your planet she screws over. Bet you havent thought of that before?

That's right, I went there~

Ironically, during the raid that Ridley launched, Samus, being just 3 at the time, tried to befriend him, but he wanted to kill her instead.
Her mother pushed her out of the way and was killed instead. Her dad was killed in the blast of him trying to destroy the supplies the pirates were after.
From what I understand, Samus officially kills Ridley in Super Metroid. The Ridley in Fusion was a clone. Not sure what was going on with Other M.
But yeah, a lot of baggage.
