1) Except it looks practically identical to the Aura flash. It looks like she's simply turning it on.

2) Pretty sure that same effect showed up multiple times when a hit or projectile was blocked by someone. 1. It does look really similar, but it's a bunch of little glowing dots drifting off of her instead of a glow with squiggly lines passing over her body.

2. That was literally the only time it happened during that whole fight. I went through the fight frame by frame when I took screenshots, and I only saw it happen once, aside from Maria's Aura flickering (as in "weakened/low Aura", not an "out of Aura" shimmer).
