In the context of the book "Onyx" by Jennifer L. Armentrout, a character expresses concern about the perception others might have of them. They worry that people could interpret their actions as dangerous, particularly if they believe they are capable of disrupting significant technology like a satellite. This suggests an underlying anxiety about how power can lead to fear and misunderstanding.
However, the character also hints at a more humorous or confident viewpoint, suggesting that perhaps instead of fear, others could simply see them as impressive or formidable. This duality highlights the complexity of how individuals view themselves and how they might be perceived by the outside world, balancing confidence with concern.
