With Kelly alive and him not having the same sense of urgency to protect his son AND Adalind, Kelly volunteering to go on the run with Adalind and baby Kelly, his mother would be lifting much of the burden from his shoulders.(05-19-2017, 12:24 AM)rpmaluki Wrote: Now if Kelly had survived, I don't think she would have replaced Diana with Kelly because I don't think she had that kind of familial relationship with Diana that came naturally/instinctively compared with blood relatives. She would have loved Kelly instantly and would have wanted to be closer to Nick and his son and with Frederick disposed of so unceremoniously, there truly wasn't a need to go into hiding with Diana. Ultimately, Adalind suppressing her powers so she could protect Kelly would have gone a long way in earning her some good will with Kelly to help reunite mother and daughter and take them under her wing instead leaving that to Nick, who still had conflicting emotions about Adalind between hating her and protecting her for his son's sake.Are saying that mama Kelly would have taken Adalind, Diana and baby grandson on the run?
There's a good chance he'd step up anyway because he wants to raise his own son but that's dependent on so many more factors that could keep it from happening like whether or not Juliette is still crazy unhinged, A.W.O.L. or dead. And taking Adalind in would have meant getting Diana much earlier than they did on the show and I don't see Nick embracing this extended "family" so soon without developing romantic feelings for Adalind.
There's Sean to consider as well, he'd also want to have his daughter back. At this point, Adalind could have turned to him and not Nick. They used to be allies, Adalind would be willing to work with Sean a lot more easily if she had zero feelings for Nick, which we know she didn't at the time of Kelly's death.
It's very possible the show would look different if Kelly didn't die and Meisner/HW didn't get Diana. BC may not have won over Sean to their side so easily if Diana was already with him. Nick and Adalind would never have fallen in love, the stick would probably still be in the Black Forest, Germany. Zerstörer may not have even come etc.
