Besides that, "against" =/= "Alongside". For all we know, the S.Eyes are effective when used against Maidens, but that doesn't mean a girl couldn't have both powers. Theorically, as long as she doesn't blast herself outright, it would be fine.

Think of it like holding a torch and a leaf. You can hold both just fine, it will only be a problem if you burn the leaf with the torch.

Of course, there's also the chance that "People with Silver Eyes" fall under the list of people that the Maiden powers reject, alongside Men and Old People, meaning that if Ruby tried receiving them, they would just bounce off and go to a random somewhere else.

But that's an hypothesis.
