Orca strikes me as one of the rare characters with her sort of body type who would get *extremely* flustered by somebody expressing attraction towards her. she's not nearly as confident about herself as one would expect from her imposing frame, and very self-conscious about the way she looks.
and there's probably a very compelling way to her heart through helping her get back into her marine biology research. it'll depend on what a given writer is doing with her, but i could see her thinking of herself as "too animalistic and just a dumb brute now" to continue her scientific career, and that feeding into a self-destructive cycle of her being out-of-date and out of practice whenever she tries to get back to doing what she loved, convincing her she "isn't smart enough for it anymore." basically the only true 'cure' for something like that is somebody willing to help push her through the struggle of getting back into science work, since i think she struggles with willpower (and maybe she uses animalistic instinct as a coping mechanism to give her the willpower she knows she lacks, but it's unfortunately only good for being a brute... which she's further ashamed of, and the cycle of self-shame continues).
by my interpretation from what i've read, she's one of the few kinds of villains who you really *could* "fix" with a loving relationship. just somebody to care about Grace not losing or hating herself more, to make her feel less like a monster and more like a person, and to help her believe that she can still do the things she loved doing before her transformation.
