So she forgave the Eliksne and is will to work with them, but she is not willing to forgive Crow for an incident that his past life did 5 years ago, plus she has had a full year to get over the revelation that Crow is Uldren.
I mean the Eliksne killed her mom, were the major cause of childhood strife for her, and her main enemy that she fought against pre red war.
So basically, she forgave the Eliksne in a couple weeks despite 20-30 years of trauma caused by them, but can't get over Crow being Uldren and him killing her friend 5 years ago.
Not to mention she has probably lost more friends (both guardian and human) to Eliksne than she did Uldren. Also House light regularly accepts refugees from other houses, so it's entirely possible that members from house winter or even her mother's killer is living amongst them.
Unless this is a plot point and Mithrax points this out to her in order to get her to forgive Crow, this is poorly written.

Dude, Crow deserves to end up with a roomba, or some other low quality NPC. Even the sweeping bot is too good for him.

11 RepliesAmanda Holiday shooting Crow in his edgelord face has been the best part of this season. It's too bad he got revived. Maybe I'll get the pleasure of taking him out myself at some point. One can only hope.

3 RepliesEdited by Prissychick: 3/15/2023 10:48:02 PMI haven’t and won’t forgive Crow. Bringing back a character who killed the best NPC in the game was a terrible choice. My opinion can’t be changed.🤷♀️ Edit: I still don’t trust Neegan in Walking Dead either.😂

25 RepliesAmanda has been poorly written since she blew up at Crow in the first place. She was effectively brought up by a Guardian, she knows they don't have their memories when they're raised but she still chewed Crow out for hiding the truth? I could see an argument that she was getting emotionally invested in Crow and had an initial knee jerk reaction to finding out who he was but they've doubled down on her being awful to him since. I can guess why they're focusing on her, it's one of the oldest tropes in the book and given this team has a reliance of over used clichés I'm going to spoiler it in case I'm right: [spoiler]She's not going to survive the season. [/spoiler]

8 RepliesProbably because their not part of the lgbqtiav+++++—— mob so no effort was put into their Hetro characters !

I think you need a change of perspective. Amanda doesn't blame all Eliksni for what happened to her mother, just as she doesn't blame all Awoken for what happened to Cayde-6. She's probably never met the Eliksni that actually attacked her group, so we don't know if she would forgive them individually for what they did.
-
That's because it's a terrible story written by terrible writers. Don't overthink it.

5 RepliesThere’s a difference between being racist and holding a grudge against the face of the guy that killed one of the vanguard.
-
Yup. Bad writing.
-
3 RepliesI cannot stand how Mithrax' daughter treated him. He's my favorite D2 character. This has nothing to do with Amanda, but she too is a hypocrite
-
2 RepliesThere’s no reason she should have a regional American accent.

Unless they were on Earth at some point before our guardian was resurrected in Destiny 1 the House of Winter are on Venus🤔
-
Amanda is a clown. So is crow.
-
This is not war and peace. Most of the destiny story is mediocre and some is nonsense.
-
Yeah bad writing for the sake of drama but hey look at the source

6 RepliesIts like trying to make sense out of the ramblings of a mad man, the story is jibberish, the plot is all over the place and the lesser focused characters have poor motives and even stupider reasoning. Personally I gave up trying to understand anything going on this season when the witness used our ghost to win the war anyway. Then it cut a portal into the traveler and disappeared inside it supposedly killing it and yet we still have our powers and every major characters pretty much just said meh it happens and moved on. The narrative is trash.

You are putting way too much thought into something Bungie wrote. It doesn't matter. By the end of the Season, everyone is going to hold hands and sing kumbaya.
-
Amanda Holiday is a poorly written and under developed character. Like a lot of others in this game.
-
Amanda isn’t a hypocrite, she’s an idiot. Not because of the character she should be but because of really poor writing.
-
She’s a terrible character anyways.
-
I can't wait until Crow's VA doesn't want the gig anymore, and Bungie has to kill him off.
-
Real trauma does indeed work that way. It's surprisingly accurate considering bungies usual poor inconsistent character development.
-
I think it still makes a bit of sense because the Eliksni that she’s accepted are not the same Eliksni who killed her family. Crow is not the same person as Uldren, but he is the same physically and that can reasonably be a lot harder to look past than judgements about a people as a whole.
-
9 RepliesNope. That's over generalization. Amanda knows Crow killed Cayde. For all Amanda knows the Eliksni in the City have nothing to do with her directly. Pain from the past is difficult to let go. "I wish I could see you another way, but... I don't. I can't. Not yet." - Amanda to Crow People are complicated. This is a fact.
-
She was written that way in current season because she's was only normal woman who left in Destiny.
