Actually, that concept was mentioned by Diane in "Knife in the Ribs".| Knife in the Ribs | Yes. The new biomorphology experiments by Delta Spike were moving forward nicely. It was such a shame that, as soon as she had the next success he was awaiting, another 'dynamorph' would sweep in and destroy all her weeks of work. She had never realized just what liabilities her origin gave her. Delta Spike was a product of the inventions of the mad deviser Doctor Pygmalion. Doctor Pyg liked to kidnap young male mutants and turn them into extremely powerful, extremely attractive young female mutants. But Doctor Pyg wasn't fool enough to gift angry victims with such power. No, he mentally enslaved them too. Each of his creations was a bimbo who thought of him as a demigod who deserved her worship. Delta Spike had tricked the doctor into 'capturing' her and turning into a gorgeous girl, and had been fortunate enough that the authorities had arrived at the perfect moment. After the physical transformation, but before the mental one. Delta seemed to be unaware that she had gambled everything on getting the authorities to come in and rescue her in what amounted to a fifty-second window. More importantly for his own goals, she was utterly unaware that she had a significant mental imprinting from Doctor Pyg's devises, and could be mentally maneuvered by anyone who understood how those devises worked.

Admittedly, this was one of the April Fools stories, so it is not canon, but just because something is not Canon doesn't mean it couldn't happen, just that it hasn't officially happened.
And Diane beat me to the comment while I was writing it.

Sure she didn't receive the instant brainwashing that his other minion-girls got, but I have to wonder if there was some subliminal Prep-work in the initial transformation.
What would happen if someone familiar with his work enough to use any trigger phrases where to use them near her?
Would she have a freak-out after-the-fact complete with a BSOD?

The only place that has even suggested Delta got something like this is in the non-Canon April Fools day story "Knife in the Ribs". Feel free to speculate, but remember what the source material is.

Yes, it was speculation only, but you have to admit it might make an excellent plot-hook  Or even a discussion topic...
To be honest I forgot about Knife in the Ribs altogether. 
|
At this point I think we here in the forums must have come up with something like over 500 plot hooks dangling in front of us that any canoneer could use.

It's a plot I tell yah, a PLOT!

Maybe, maybe not. I'd say there's an excellent chance the same thing's occured to a few other people already at Whateley. Hell, if I were in charge of Powers Testing, Delta is one subject I'd have gone over with a fine-toothed comb anyway, since both her body and powers are the product of devise of unknown capabilities.

Maybe, but you can bet that Sam will check it out more thoroughly as well.
