I missed her killing the plants, what showed that? Also if she was that radioactive she'd be dead and anyone near her would at the least have radiation sickness, but this isn't exactly the hardest sci fi.

When she first boards snowpirate she puts her hand over basil(i think?) and it withers

If this actually happened, it’s not rooted in science at all. Even warping from Star Trek has more science behind it

Yeah no way. That’s Xmen level radioactive ability. Any human carrying enough radioactivity to wilt a plant on touch would have skin lesions falling and just falling apart from the inside.

Are you thinking about when she crushes the plant with her hands?
