More specifically, she can make Aladdin stop loving Jasmine. So she believes she can prove to Fasir that she can make them stop loving each other. But more importantly I don’t think she appreciated having herself compared to them.

We don’t see people talking to villains like this very often. Fasir wants to know why Mirage insists on tormenting mortals and she wants to know what the Hell he’s doing on her lawn. But here we have Fasir and Mirage bickering. ![]()
