ok, I think now that we're being shown the absent memories, their first relationship was way more disturbing. While Adam is enchanted by Michael, he's also kinda scared of him. The dude (Michael) only knew fighting and killing and using his abilities to achieve an end goal, he was very much raised as a weapon and not knowing how to control his feelings. He imprinted on Adam and now wants everything to do with him and WANTS him. He doesn't know what love is, only that he wants adam to look at him and only him and be around him and he will do whatever to get it, even hurt adam (as we see in the beginning of the story, Michael fucked up Adam's knee or leg which forced Adam to retire early). This version of Eve is so creepy and detached from any emotions and social ques that he doesn't understand that Adam was super uncomfortable in having his mind read. If he was going to choke Adam out to get him to call him Eve, what the hell did he do to adam's leg. Don't get me wrong choking is sexy when done right, but Michael comes off as "I want to own you and I don't care if I have to hurt you to do it" and it very disturbing how Isaah basically cultivated that.
Now when you look at our baby boy Eve, he is a complete 180 from Michael. Adam is teaching him what emotions are and what he can and can't do with his abilities. Eve isn't like Michael when he met Adam again, he wasn't immediately obsessed and possessive with Adam, we can all see that he fell in love with Adam.... AND THEEEEN became possessive and obsessed with him. But even then, it is not nearly as disturbing an attraction that Michael had. I mean sure, Eve has his moments where he becomes A LITTLE deranged when in the middle of getting freaky and being put in a high stress situation that reminds him of battle, but nothing that can't be fixed with some love dovey time and some corrections here and there, BUT EVE IS A MUFFIN!
I'm low key scared of what Michael did and once Adam remembers he's gonna be terrified of Eve and avoid him. One thing I learned in this last couple of chapters is that Eve CAN'T handle adam not being near him, let alone Adam full on rejecting him and being scared of him. So I'm low key terrified of whats gonna happen.
That's just my take anyway ╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭

    well said! But i think Adam wouldn't be afraid of the current Eve, he's more gentle than Michael!

    God I hope not, but then again if you were in Adam's shoes and Eve/Michael was, Im assuming, the reason you tried killing yourself and crippled you and erased both your memories, I would be weary around him after remembering all that. That's just me tho (=・ω・=)

    that's actually true.. But I think Adam is not the cowardly type! Like, even if his memories are erased, he still chose to be with Eve!
