I mean yeah but that's kind of a stupid power. How exactly does that add to her character? I'm still not sure why Morrison did that. It feels like a Mary Sue fanfiction thing that's only not that bad because of the restriction that she can't use her psychic powers in crystal form. Well I guess it makes sense to separate her powers from Jean Grey since back in the day she was just a villainous Jean, and Emma's personality lends itself to just straight up harming people more than Jean's does. But it's still kinda stupid and forced.
