It was a situation that no one could have predicted, and yet, as Jake eyed the two Ruby's, he immediately understood what had happened. It was an unforeseen consequence of Psykow's psychic powers.
The first Ruby was the Ruby he imagined her to be after the Oracle had cured her chronic birth defects when she arrived on B842: snow-white long hair, frail, fair, but still paralyzed in the lower half of her body. Her pallor, her moist eyes wide open and her mouth gasping in terror conveyed the full extent of her inability to process what was happening, her guilt eroding her from within.
There was also tremendous confusion. Jake wasn't even sure she could remember her name under these conditions, her Spirit Body and Soul only a sliver of their original state. She was so weak, she could barely stand, most likely thanks to her Aether stats and the remnants of Bloodlines that had not been stolen by her clone.
