Spop always play with the word "friend" to meant romantic interest. In S4 we found out that Light Hope was super gay for Mara:

"Thanks, Hope. Couldn't ask for a better friend!"

"Friend..."

"All I have on Mara is this memory and a sensation. Warmth. Her memory brings me warmth."

"You and Mara were close?"

"Yes. We were."

So there's this scene in 1x12 that Adora keeps asking Light Hope how to use shera's powers to heal her friend and Light Hope is like "your...friend?"

and adora, being the disaster that she is, later yelled at glimmer that the last thing angella asked adora to do was to take care of glimmer

like adora is literally incapable of internalizing the fact that people can and should take care of her too, to the point that she skewed glimmer's mom's last fucking words

Adora is self-sacrificing, brave and noble. She always stays true to her values and does not compromise them.

At her best, Adora is brave and selfless. She fights for her friends and Etheria with valour. Adora is morally principled and doesn’t compromise herself. When she is not under stress, we can see Adora having fun and letting loose. For example, when she first escapes the Horde she enjoys herself at a party.

At her worst, Adora is rigid and stubborn. She can be a bit blunt and doesn’t have much of a sense for social situations. Adora can have a bit of a high and mighty attitude, coming across as she thinks she is better than others.

Adora is very compliant and is comfortable following rules. She enjoys order and is respectful of those in authority. Adora is very diligent in her training and works very hard. For example, while she was in the Horde, she was able to rise to the top of her class and quickly became promoted to force captain.

Adora is stubborn and forthright with her views. She has her ideas about what should be done and she is not shy with sharing these views. Adora will often be able to come up with plans and enact them. She has clear cut views of what she thinks the right course of action is in most situations. This causes her conflict with Glimmer, as she feels like Adora is calling all the shots.

Adora feels like she is responsible for everyone and everything around her. She puts a lot of pressure on herself and believes that if she makes a mistake it will be catastrophic. When she does make a mistake, she feels like she needs to fix it, and will even endanger herself in order to do that. For example, after she broke the sword, she continued to try and protect Etheria from Horde Prime troops, despite losing her ability to turn into She-Ra.

Adora looks for a purpose in her life and she finds this in She-Ra. 1s often search for purpose and meaning in their life. Adora wants to make the world a better place and she will often make sacrifices to try and fulfill her purpose. For example, she accepts the Heart of Eternia even though it is very likely to kill her. When Adora breaks the sword and can’t turn into She-Ra anymore she is upset because she feels like she doesn’t have the strength to fight the Horde. Even though she is significantly weaker without being able to turn into She-Ra she still believes that her purpose is to fight the rebellion and does all she can to help the cause.

Adora’s relationship with Catra shows some of her best and worst traits. Firstly, Adora has an unbelievable ability to forgive and see the best in everyone. She believes that Catra is a good person, despite all the horrible things she has done, and doesn’t give up on her. On the other hand, she has a tendency to blame herself for other people’s actions. For example, she blames herself for Catra not joining the Rebellion, because she believes she wasn’t persuasive enough and she has some guilt over leaving her. However, she realises that she cannot fix everybody, and Catra had to take accountability for her actions and change herself.

I think that Adora has quite a heavy influence from her wing 2. She has a bit of a hero complex and wants the people around her to need her. We see this especially in her relationship with Catra. I think overall, she is more concerned with being a good person and doing the right thing. More specifically, a 2 needs to be needed and will often not sever ties in their relationships, however Adora is willing to sacrifice her relationships to do what she believes is right. An example of this is that she left the Horde (and Catra) because she found out they were evil.

Adora shows her wing 2 as she is more expressive and emotionally open than a wing 9 would be. She is also more outgoing and people oriented than a wing 9 would be.

Some quotes to describe Adora’s motivations

“Catra, wait! I’m sorry for leaving, I couldn’t go back to the Fright Zone, not after I saw what the Horde was really doing. I never wanted to leave you…I know you’re not a bad person Catra”

“But that doesn’t change the fact that the Horde is evil. I had no choice, I couldn’t go back”

"I won't be controlled. I am not a piece of their machine. I am not a weapon. And I am going to end. This. NOW!"

“I don't fight for the First Ones. I fight for my home, for myself, and for my friends. Now for the last time: where is Catra?”

Adora: “I promised I'd take you home, and that's exactly what I'm gonna do. Why are you acting like this?! We saved your life!”  Catra: “I told you not to come back! But you just love feeling like a hero, don't you?”  Adora: “You'd rather I left you there to die?!”  Catra: “What do you care?! I know you all hate me!”  Adora: “I never hated you!”

Adora: “I am not giving up on you, Catra!”  Chipped Catra: “Then you're a fool. You cannot stop Horde Prime. He will reign triumphant over all the universe. It is...destiny--” [electricity zaps behind her at her chip, and Catra screams]  Adora: “No!”  Catra: “Adora...you should have stayed away. Why did you come back? We both know I don't matter...”  Adora: “You matter to me.”

Adora: “I’m saying, this is wrong. They've been lying to us, manipulating us. Hordak, Shadow Weaver, all of them.”  Catra: “Duh! Did ya just figure that out? Manipulation is Shadow Weaver's whole thing. She's been messing with our heads since we were kids.”  Adora: “How could you possibly be okay with that?”  Catra: “Because, it doesn't matter what they do. The two of us look out for each other. And soon we'll be calling the shots. Now, can we go home?”  Adora: “I'm not going home. Not after everything I've seen. Come with me. You don't have to go back there. We can fix this.”
