This is something I've been curious about since finishing Retribution - what archetypes are Stella and Jamie?
Michelle Hodkin
Well, Jamie basically announces what he is in Evolution:
“I’ll take your word for it,” I said, as teenagers began to file into the room. Jamie added a comment under his breath with each one. “Phoebe’s the psycho,” he said, when she walked in. “Tara’s the klepto, Adam’s the sadist, and Megan’s the 'phobe.”
I raised an eyebrow. “And you?”
He pretended to ponder my question. “The trickster,” he finally said.
“That’s not a diagnosis.”
“So you say.”
“And me?” I asked.
Jamie tilted his head, considering me. “I haven’t figured out your fatal flaw yet.”
“Let me know when you do,” I said, not entirely kidding.
But Stella doesn't even guess what she is, and so Mara couldn't know it, which is why it wasn't mentioned in Mara's account.
