1: me researching how Adam talk was interesting and a bit confusing because idk when to really use the word thou like Luna in “Luna eclipsed” or in a song called “who knows when the sun will rise again” (a good song by the way) i wanted to use early modern English but it was around 1600’s and Adam was around the 1700’s so i had to use how Luna did as best as i could and i think i did well
 
2: realistically in the world of equestria Adam would have different colored body parts because what are the chances victor would find the same colored body parts so Adam would have a cute mark but two different ones so i don’t think he can get a cute mark of his own even if somehow his DNA turned into his very own (which not currently it will be someday) besides the cute marks represent that he is made from science and he is smart so at some point ti will show how fast he learns actually
 
3: Adam does understand and does feel sorry because he actually has a good heart and also he did similar bad things too so ya, griffin and Matthew felt the same way with Adams story too
 
4: yes it seems this was all for noting but Adam will be a big help because him having a kind heart he can be more trustful in others eyes so they won’t be scared and what Adam said why he won’t do it makes sense and also this will help Matthew do something that would put his talent to good use
