One thing I really enjoy about Fatima is her anger.

She's one of those people who constantly try to be in their best mood for everyone else around them. To be the comforting and uplifting person. But that makes them neglect their own needs and emotions. So when inevitably they explode, the anger comes out. Because what is anger if not the most intense way we have of protecting ourselves? Of expressing what has been building underneath without having a chance to come out. Anger can be a sword, but also a shield.

Fatima is afraid (as anyone in Fromville is) and that fear has brewed into anger. We can see that in the "FUCK YOU, STOP FUCKING SMILING" scene. Ellis and everyone around her thought she was "breaking", I don't think she was. She was burning with understandable anger. That anger might be what keeps her going, not hope, hope is for everyone else, something she offers, anger is for herself. None can seem to give hope to the personification of hope (Donna refers to Fatima as such).

I think that repressed and explosive anger might be one of the reasons why she was chosen to bring Smiley back. That's the perfect environment for a creature like Smiley to grow in.

Now her anger is making her rebel against these creatures. She's sick and tired of being powerless and she's taking that control back by building a Golem. Yes girl, give them hell. Let it all out.
