I'm not too great with coming up with theories, so all i have to go on is personalities, which i like to think I'm good at. But with Biana...*sigh* Here we go

Okay, so i'm going to start with the fact that Biana has a crush, and the assumption that it's Tam, cuz I've kinda said everything i can about that earlier. And I'm also going to talk about how she would feel if he betrayed them.

So, I think Linh would feel guilty. Guilty because she said they shouldn't rescue him, and that led to him being fed propaganda and turning, guilty because it's her that he's doing all of this for and so on. And Linh and Biana have pretty much never interacted. But you'd have to argue pretty hard, even if you weren't a Tiana shipper, to say that Tam and Biana don't have some sort of chemisty/relationship, platonic or oherwise. For Linh, she lost her brother. For Biana, she lost her older brother (alvar), and who she had come to consider a good friend. They're going to bond over Tam, kind of like Piper and Hazel (if you've read Heroes Of Olympus) when they lost Annabeth.

Linh and Biana's reactions are going to hurt Tam the most. Linh has been with him through everything, and he'd give anything for her--and Biana is his crush. Tam comes across to me as a sensitive person--say the right thing, and you can get him to do pretty much anything. Sophie's going to realize that Linh and Biana have the best chance at getting through to him--and when they do (which i have pretty much no doubt they will at some point), Tiana's going to be in Biana's hands entirely.

Tam just betrayed them. There's no way he's going to confess or even show any feelings towards Biana, even when he gets back. He's going to step aside, and I have a feeling that even if Biana confesses first, he's going to urge her to fnid someone better. We already know what he thinks of himself--a twin, a Shade, a wayward and sort of banished--but Biana's going to insist, and then BAM! TIANA!

But that's all still assuming that Biana isn't as oblivious as Sophie. Okay, i know that duh, Biana's not oblivious, she saw Sophitz a mile away. But everybody saw Sophitz a mile away. In my opinion, Biana's the kind of person that is so caught up in other people's drama, that she doesn't realize her own. She's used to getting crushes from strangers, not friends, and she's going to need a real splash in the face to wake up and realize Tam likes her--and it's going to a blow when she does.

Now, even if Biana forgives Tam (which i think will happen soonish) and Tam forgives himself enough to be with her (which is definitely going to be way harder for him), there's just one tiny problem left...IT'S ALL IN SOPHIE'S POINT OF VIEW! Which is why, we need a Tam or Biana pov.

Ships are all about drama with Shannon. Now, here's the thing. Tiana and Diana are kind of at a standstill at the moment. Nothing really pushing them anywhere, like the attack did with Sophitz...UNTIL NOW (dun dun duuuuuuun). Tam was kidnapped by the Neverseen, and we're not allowed to rescue him, oh no!!! That's drama, sure. But what about the classic "Don't Be Evil, I Love You"? Perfect, right? Because, Tam isn't really evil. He's doing this to protect the only person he's cared about for most of his life. Biana knows that, and she already had to go through this with Keefe, but it wasn't for real. This is for real. So she's going to do whatever it takes to bring her friend back, even if it means committing to something she hadn't realized she wanted. And that is why Tam is going to turn--for ships, for his sister, for angst and for action.

(I just realized how i rant so much and how little of it makes any sense, and i couldliterally summarize in three paragraphs. Oh well.)
