*this is even more idiotic now, because apparently the deal was to make red hair take down the og post, not even to clarify or exonerate Minji. That’s it. The post that everyone already read and still knows about. And I still don’t get why Yuna refuses to say anything to Minji. Just so moronic all around
Am I the only one tearing my hair out over the idiotic mentality of the characters? So pink and red hair plotted to spread malicious rumors about Minji, then staged a confrontation to further drive home the bully reputation. If Minji had known about how malicious they were, she might have thought twice about approaching red hair to sort out the issue.
The solution offered is also pointless because it won’t actually do anything. So in exchange for Yuna breaking up with and shunning Minji, red hair clarifies that she’s not a bully, and both her and pink hair stop messing with her. Except that’s not going to help anything. The rumors are already out, and red hair even sobbed hysterically apologizing to Minji in front of a huge crowd to solidify them. That’s not shit you can just walk back with a statement.
Minji’s reputation took a serious hit and nothing red or pink hair do, short of admitting the scheme to everyone will recoup it. Does Yuna think that people seeing Minji abandoned by her closest friend after the scandal is going to convince them she’s innocent. No, it’s going to make her guilt even more convincing because what could make such a long and close friendship break up, and have Yuna clinging to the supposed victim?
And the fact that Yuna didn’t tell Minji anything is even more ridiculous. There were no requirements to keep things secret before or after the deal is struck. Minji has a horrible reputation either way, but now she’s completely isolated and abandoned by her closest person.
This is why it’s so difficult to find a decent Yuri. The villains aren’t even interesting and compelling, just maliciously petty for no reason. Most of the conflict is enabled or created by the main characters not communicating or using common sense. It just feels like most of the plot is from drama created by artificial plot forcing by way of dumb characters. If the characters actually thought logically, even just to an average person’s level, most of the existing plot wouldn’t exist. I don’t know why it’s so hard to write lesbian stories with characterization and plotlines that aren’t completely exhausting to read
