If you met Adam and Eve

If you met (when you meet them in heaven) Adam and Eve would you blame them for the original sin, for God's wrath and all the mess here down on the Earth?
Or what would you do, or feel when meeting them?

I would probably be like: "Hey! Whats up gramps and granny!" then inquire about the garden of Eden and get some details I'd be curious to know of their time and then chill for however long. I wouldn't blame them for any of that, that comes off as silly to me?

That question came to my mind while listening to one sermon.
Just telling background...

I probably wouldn't be able to ask them a whole lot. I don't think they spoke English.
And once we're in heaven, I don't think we'll be blaming anyone for anything.

Well, if i did meet Adam and Eve i would be angry at first because they denied they're Children (US) our original home, Paradise, and deny us the presence of God (Literally he's presence).
But, i would probably love them even more because our fall is a Happy Fault or 'Felix Culpa', if weren't for the fall we wouldn't experience what we are experiencing right now, Love, Hate, Anger, Jealousy, Comfort, and a Choice between right and wrong, we wouldn't have Jesus Christ if Adam and Eve didn't fall, so to sum it up, I'll probably be Angst but quickly go Bonkers and hug the two to death, cuz ADAM AND EVE

I'd be absolutely interested what they looked like. I imagine Adam was the idealized image of what every male ought to look like, and Eve the idealized image of what every female ought to look like.
Edit: Oh, if I could have a intelligible conversation with them? I would ask for gardening tips from Adam, since he allegedly cultivated the most lush pasture on Earth that it was called a paradise. And Eve, well, unfortunately not much is known about Eve the person from the Text given, so I'd exchange pleasantries, and try to behave myself in front of possibly the most beautiful woman ever made.

I'd want to kick their butt, for all the trouble they caused.
Wonder how long that line is?
Worst couple ever.

But since beauty is in the eye of the viewer, wouldn't each individual see a different Adam/Eve?

More Matrix philosophy?
I would bet she looks even better than the woman in the red dress.

Hahahaha! Yeah, you reminded me of the woman in red dress. Again, it can't be more obvious that it depicts Satan - especially with the comment "Beware of the woman in the red dress" and then she turns to an agent.
I wouldn't bet on anything. What if the story of Adam and Eve is just something writer used to describe the origin of life? What if the story is just an allegory? What if...
Tbh, I wouldn't even want to meet them if they are real.

I posted my question in "Questions for Christians" section but in fact was intended for all, not only Christians.
I believe, if one sits down and think about it, he can search his soul and understand himself better.
I appreciate the honesty.

Wouldn't it be ironic if we met Adam and Eve, only to find out that all along it was really Adam and Steve?

I would be very wary if they offered me any fruit to eat
