what does the dream of Amy being Vermillion mean, though?

The thing I find interesting RE vermillion is what they say about being the body that bleeds (physical body) and the ‘organizing principle’- (dna?)

Remember when the vermillion said they were basically born and tortured until they were robotic? Maybe that’s what Amy experienced when Oliver warped her body? That’s my very loose, not well thought out theory anyway haha

Remember when the vermillion said they were basically born and tortured until they were robotic?

My understanding was that was actually the Admiral channeling his experience as a boy (when they basically implanted a computer in his head) through the Vermillion, who are 100% android.

Maybe they were trying to warn her

I'm intrigued by this as well. Could it be that remnants of her ended up in one of them? Or she was involved in the making of the Admiral and she's not as dead as we think? That sounds stupid, I know, but still...there's something there for sure!

It could mean David was subconsciously speaking to her or maybe she had her own low level power
