I've actually read that instantaneous "snapping" is one of the most overdone psyhco cliches and highly unrealistic. It's more of she's told to kill someone by her superiors and her weapon persona stays dominant for the most part.

As creepy as murdering a kitten or something would be, I don't really see that as fitting of her character and backstory. She's programmed to kill Huntsmen and Huntresses, not baby animals. Besides, there are already things she does that are pretty morbid anyway when murdering. E.G. writing nonsense in her victim's blood, stripping the body naked and mutilating it with the victim's weapon. (E.G. if she were to murder say, Ruby Rose, the police would find her impaled and propped up through Crescent Rose's blade, upside down.)
