-->'''Heather:''' You thought you could ''control'' me by telling me the name on my ''birth certificate?'' Let me tell ''you'' a little secret, ''counselor''.

! Issue 12 tops this: Heather After not only imprisons the Unseelie in an unbreakable bubble, she then ''threatens the Dream King himself'' unless he lets Ruin and Ben have their happy ending:
-->'''Dream:''' Now get out of the way, or I will ''remove'' you myself.\\
'''Heather:''' Sorry. ''Can't.''\\
'''Dream:''' [[FlatWhat What?]]\\
'''Heather:''' I give you a coin I made from a ''stone''. I give you a ''song'' I stole from the ''dirt''. I give you a ''knife'' from under the hills.\\
'''Dream:''' What is this? How did you--\\
'''Heather:''' And a ''feather'' I plucked from an ''angel's wing''. That bit's not an ''idle threat'', either. I picked up ''this'' baby last time ''Jophiel'' did his ''terrifying Biblical'' thing.\\
'''Dream:''' '''''How did you get that spell?'''''\\
'''Heather:''' My great-grandmother was more than just Burgess' ''side piece''. She was ''listening'', and ''I'' listened to ''her''. So here's how it's going to go: ''you're'' going to let Ruin and Ben stay ''together'', and ''I'll'' never say the final stanzas of that spell.\\
'''Dream:''' You are making a mistake for which there is no ''forgiveness''. Ruin will still be ''mortal''. And ''your'' family and ''mine'' will once again be at ''war''. It didn't end ''well'' for you the ''last'' time.\\
'''Heather:''' I'll take that chance.
* Keep in mind that the last time this happened, Dream was caught 1) unaware and 2) weakened. This is Dream ''aware'' and in ''full power'' and yet he still backs down from Heather's threat of finishing the spell. Which probably means that she is ''much more'' powerful than her great-grandfather ever was.

* Heather After pulls off a ''huge'' moment of awesome in Issue #11: after being tormented for hours by the Unseelie, she is with Nuala, Oberon, and Titania and ready to depose the Unseelie from the Faerie Court. However, Puck arrives and reveals that not only is he ''working'' for the Unseelie, but also that he stole her medical chart and therefore knows [[IKnowYourTrueName her true name]]. The Unseelie then try to say the name on her birth certificate -- they ''try'', but can't even get out the entire name before collapsing on the ground in pain. Because that ''isn't'' her true name -- that's her ''[[UsefulNotes/{{Transgender}} deadname]]''. As Heather After puts it:
