#unequivocally a horrible person. likr walking trash

[fishoutofcamelot]

Is it just me or is everyone else really annoyed when someone interprets their fave in such a way that erases all their flaws and provides wholesome excuses for all their mistakes? Like. Idk it just feels like such a disservice to the character to strip them of all their depth and humanity

#for example #agravaine is one of my favorite characters #unequivocally a horrible person. likr walking trash #but im not gonna excuse his actions and pretend he was a good person! bc he was a shitty guy! #this is also why gwens lack of character development frustrates me #give her more flaws! let her make mistakes and be in the wrong! let her genuinely screw up and sometimes be the bad guy! #but then let her learn from this. let her strive to be a better person. let her fail but keep trying anyway #instead we just get 'oh gwen was amazing and flawless and so wise at everything she did' #no!!!! i love gwen with my heart and soul but i HATE characterizations that make her out to be a perfect person #she IS wise. she IS brave. she IS compassionate and selfless #but shes also human. and humans have just as much capacity to hurt as we do to heal #anyway thats a very long-winded way of me saying that i wanna watch gwen go apeshit #fish post
