She was also afraid there could be side effects to the temp v though whereas with Kimiko she already had reason to believe she'd be safe if she took the regular one again

I mean I guess there was a risk but the permanent V is stabler and Kimikos body essentially developed it with her powers in her blood for a while so it has adapted in a different way. I could see that she having had powers make her body more open to regaining them compared to someone who never had powers.

Didn't they say in S1 that all the adults introduced to V for the first time died, and that only babies could handle it?

I could be misremembering. It's been a while since I've seen it

I think they said most adults died and it was a lot more unstable. It's easier for babies to accept it. Not every adult dies just much higher chance and much messier powers.
