I re read the post in this section. JSgrimm45 you nailed most of your predictions.
Now for what I see as a need to understand a few things to understand where the show is gong with Bitsie's new character.
The topic is embraceing the hexebiest. Juliette did that in the bar. Even Adalind admitted that Juliette must be accepting what she is. At this point she had come to grips with, being a hexenbiest is what and who she is. She had just not come to appreciate it. In the bar it was still something that had been done to her. By the time Rosalee came to visit her in jail she had transitioned to viewing it as a gift. She even thanked Rosalee and the group for making her so powerful. Rosalee was convinced that it was the hexenbiest talking and not Juliette.
This is going to be important during the reveal. Is Juliette accepting the reality of who and what she is or has the hexenbiest taken over, and Juliette is just a host. Considering that Adalind who had lost her spirit, still had the desire to exact extreme vengeance on her enemy. Lets me believe that the new Juleitte is more the product of acceptance then spirit influence.
Juliette asking Nick to kiss her while woged was not a literal request. It was symbolic way of asking can you accept this. Meaning even if she never woged again, her woge state would always be apart of her can he live with that. Obviously he could not. If what she was was not a problem after she un-woged he would have embraced her with some comment of not when you look like death warmed over.
By the time Juliette got to the spice shop, she viewed her power as a gift, vowing to be the best hexenbiest she could. An important point to realize in season 5. AS a gift she will be more inclined to thank Adalind instead of blaming her. The problem is the group is still holding on to the idea that Juliette is cursed, broken, and needs to be fixed and will never change. This is the reason why Juliette will be considered dead. They will always see the new character as needing to be fixed and they will hold onto that till the end. It was in the spice shop that Juliette realized that to the group Juliette was no more. This lead to Juliette saying lets get this over with. basically she wanted to show them what they where dealing with and get them to realize she was no longer Juliette. Even Monroe and Rosalee commented, I don't know what that was but it was not Juliette.
To understand Juliette actions. Take two people in a bar. One is a martial arts export, the other is the guy always being shoved in the locker. A fight breaks out the martial arts patroon would be likely to take on the bar while the other would run away. The same with Juliette, she is now all of a sudden the martial arts expert. This is definitely going to give her a ton of confidence. It is going to make her feel she does not have to take anything from anybody any more. We saw how when Adalind came to the house with big Kelly. Juliette was itching to be able to do something to her. As a hexenbiest, Juliette no longer has to wish, she can do. Remember, Juliette burnt the trailer after the police station. After going to the shop for help and being made to feel like a monster that needed to be fixed by her closest friends. The same friends she was willing to sacrifice becoming Adalind to help save. Is it any wonder the hurt she was feeling, especially after Nick told her to leave the station. Juliette explained her reasons for the trailer and admitted maybe she over reacted.
As for the new character, like I said she views being a hexenbiest as a gift. In season four she was a kid with a new toy, she is now trained to use her powers as a weapon. In season four she blowup the car because she was mad, now she will have control of those kind of outburst.
From the beginning Juliette was not one who showed a lot of emotions. Very few times we got to see her smile, I can't remember her ever laughing, or crying. Add to this Juliette was open, giving and compassionate with her friends, and look where this got her. The new character will never allow herself to be hurt like that again. Which is the reason she will never open up to anyone. Think of it like someone who went through a very bad marriage, not wanting to date, or swearing off men. Add on top of all this she has received special forces training. We all know how a barrel of laughs those people can be.
We will only see her in mission setting where she will be totally focused. She will come off as extremely flat. Not Data from star trek flat but close. Data did not even have the concept of a smile. The new character knows what a smile is, there just wont be time for smiling. She will not be a social character, she will drown herself in her work. She will no longer try and see both sides of a situation. Her focus will be on results by any means possible. This character would have no problem carpet bombing a place lie Raqqa, if it would eliminate the enemy. She is a killer but not ruthless. She does not operate on revenge, jealousy, glory, or power. She is a special forces operative, what she does is not based her her view of right or wrong, but what the mission called for. No difference then how Adalind worked. Except with Adalind failed mission resulted in her seeking revenge. New character will never go off mission. The like or hate will depend on the mission. Just like the hate for Adalind exist because she was on mission.
There is one direction they could go. Either Nick or one of the group could get in trouble. Even tough they still don't see eye to eye or accept what or how she works. Their being in trouble she will make it personal.
Trubel will fit in more with the group then she does with HW. Even though Trubel helps HW, she does not agree with a lot of their methods. The New character will believe in HW and the cause. The thing we will not be sure of is her reason for involvement. Is it the hate for the wesen world, the world that put and end to her, Nick and the white picket fence. or is it she's really concerned about preserving humanity, seeing as how she will seem to have very little.
