Exactly! I guess that was to make it obvious that it was Aima, but it was just too ridiculous. :lol:

Oh, yeah. The Order on her name tag isn't written backwards.

It's a bad shot, but you can see from the text (even though it's impossible to read) that the tag is simply reflected. Like looking into a mirror.

I'm not sure why her video camera would do this though. Mine doesn't. :-k

Aren't you just seeing through the back of the tag?

I don't think so...?

I still think that it's just the writing seen from behind (like maybe the printing's gone through the paper or the paper was slightly transparent or really thin). All of the text appears to be right aligned from the angle we see as well, meaning that it would be nicely left aligned from the front of the badge.

Just my opinion, anyway.

PS. What an awesome ID photo. :D

The text looks a bit like japanese or chinese.
But thinking of it, it could be anything else as well :?

I think it's intentionally mirror writing. Why, I have no idea. But she could have just shown us the front if it wasn't ..?

Edit: Or enochian maybe?

Maybe a "Through the Looking Glass" type of thing then, as in an Alice in Wonderland type of setting?

OH! I understand what you mean now! Sorry, I didn't get it before.
That's seems likely, now.

I don't think the mirror writing was just thrown in as a joke though, because even if the Order thinks Aima is a joke, that's probably an official nametag. So why would they reverse the text?

I suppose we'll find out it's a joke if after 8 pages of discussion over the text of a nametag, Cassie mentions 12 videos later that it doesn't matter.
