The whole act that she used to convince Teresa was pretty convincing enough since it's basically the same thing that Clare did back in the cathedral when she nearly became awakened. Priscilla's main objective was to kill Teresa at all costs and she did with the price of her humanity. Great deal isn't it! However, you're right, I'm still having some trouble with the fact that Teresa could fall for something like that, she's gotten too soft in my opinion.

[spoiler]Basically what's explained in the English version of the manga is that Priscilla didn't kill any of the young girls she came across versus the scanslation where it was just her. The two popular theories are that either A. clare didn't matter B. the girl reminded her of herself when she saw her everything die. I tend to think of B at this point because of the case with Ophelia where her brother was killed by Priscilla and she lived. Still it's all speculation at this point. [/spoiler] Spoilers for Kabi.

I have a hard time imagining her as a bratty kid, but you never know, haha. For instance, Priscilla was pretty ditzy and bratty as a Claymore, but now that she's Awakened she's totally mellowed out and developed a case of the munchies... hey, wait a second...

Or was that red eyes? I don't remember. Anyway, another explanation is that she was a naughty brat as child and had to be pulled by her ears all the time. I'm not so sure that Priscilla planned this trick. I rather think the Yoma mind in her overwhelmed her and then took its chance. As for elf ears, I’ve heard you can get them by playing WOW too much.

We're finally getting to the good part of the storyline! I was kidding about the black envelope thing, but since Teresa was right there, couldn't Priscilla have handed her the black envelope? Preferably before Priscilla cut off both of Teresa's hands. I think that scrub soldier's name was Galk, but he was only important cause he gave Lucky a sword. All Claymores keep the envelope in their sword, so I bet you can shoot out the envelope with a push of a button. I wonder if there is any text on the other side of the letter in the envelope (the front has the symbol of the Claymore who sent it). I imagine the back would be like, "LULZ, I HAS AWAKEND. KILL ME KTHXBAI." Also, do Claymore send each other fake black envelopes as practical jokes? Like make up a symbol (crop circles!) or send envelopes for Claymores that haven't awakened? Gilberto, can you expand on why Priscilla didn't want to eat Clare? The reason they give is that Clare was too weak to register on Priscilla's radar, but this doesn't seem to make much sense. You can enclose spoilers in <code><spoiler></spoiler></code> tags. I don't recall seeing another reason why loli-Clare didn't get her guts eaten when I was reading the manga.

In more extreme cases, she will ask to the first person closer to kill her immediately before completing the transformation. Remember episode 4, when Clare thought she was turn into a yoma immediately, so asked to what-his-name warrior to use his sword and kill her fast. As for Priscilla not eating loli-Clare, probably she thought she was too small, weak and skinny to make a great meal. She was interested in something better. If i remember well, there's still another reason, but that's a spoiler. The Claymore will hand the black envelope only if there’s still time before the transformation.
