Sep 23, 2016 at 15:19 | comment | added | John Clifford | She is imagining a suggestion which will directly cause his death; she is therefore having thoughts of killing him. That he'd end up doing the deed himself (if he were susceptible to his own power, which he isn't) is irrelevant in this case, I think. Furthermore, if your assertion is taken as fact (that imagining him dying is not the same thing as thinking of killing him) some of the other answers posted become more viable. | |
Sep 23, 2016 at 15:08 | comment | added | Gokhan Kurt | @JohnClifford "He has the ability to unconsciously kill anyone who has thoughts of killing him". I interpret the word "thought" as "conscious thought". Also, imagining him die is not same as thinking of killing him. Jane doesn't want to kill him. She wants him to kill himself. | |
Sep 23, 2016 at 14:30 | comment | added | John Clifford | Interesting idea, but as soon as Jane had the notion of offering the double suicide she would imagine Joe dying and his power would kick in, so he'd never know she was going to suggest it. (also, it's been stated that he's immune to it) | |
