I still think Emerald could have SOME kind of positive development, and she doesn't necessarily need to become a good guy. Just some kind of anti-hero would be good enough for me. Yeah, it would be cliche for her to be redeemed in some way, but I'd still kinda like to see it happen. Mercury, undoubtedly, especially if he keeps hanging around Cinder, who has a knack for bringing out the worst in people.

As for Emerald, yeah I'm skeptical about her being redeemed too. Either a)she decides she's done too much to ever leave Cinder's side, or b)Cinder tightens her hold on Emerald to keep her from straying. Considering how much of a control freak Cinder is, that would not surprise me.
