Because you don't notice the light without a bit of shadow. Everything has both dark and light. You have to play with it till you get it exactly right.

I had thought Felicity dangerous a moment ago, when she felt powerful. I was wrong. Wounded and powerless, she is more dangerous than I could imagine.
