Why is Sam significantly more creative with her powers as a 12 yo compared to when she’s 19?

Is there an actual reason behind it or is it just because it’s her own episode and creators just had fun with her powers

    Her character arc in season 1 was about being a bit jaded with her superhero career but not heroism itself, as I remember, so she was still trying to help people but not putting much flair into it.

    In Atom Eve, it’s all new and she’s discovering it

      I was actually thinking the exact same thing.

      She had only just discovered her powers, So Not only was she testing the limits, but she had so much energy to show off. But after a couple years, the novelty wears off and it kind of just becomes a thing that you would do, so she likely didn’t have the motivation to be as flashy.
