I'm alittle curious about one thing. Why do most people think of Sylia as
the Ice Queen???? To me she seems like a understand and caring person, she
just doesn't know how to (or can't for numbers of reason) show she is.

      But that IS the definition of an Ice Queen. Someone who doesn't
(deliberately or not) _show_ emotion. Whether they FEEL emotion or not is
another story. Something I can relate to.

      See the difference?

ok... Is it the same case if they show little emotion? I was watching Red
Eyes today after sending my last email. Sylia seems rather sympathic
towards Priss, even if it was just the expression on her face. (Some how it
almost seemed as she could relate, I wondered if it had to do anything with
killing Mason 3 eps back.)

Well, yeah.  She's got a reputation as an ice queen, not a zombie.
And it's not as if she hugged Priss and they started crying together.
The point is, she rarely shows fear, anger or sorrow, doesn't get
excited about stuff, has no love life (that we can see) and generally
only shows anything except calm amusement or professionalism under the
most dire circumstances.  But she's still a human being...mostly.
