I fear you're super right... I love this story so much but tropes like this annoys me so much ughh
legit, I'm going to keep going for a bit longer but if it pulls dumb stuff again I'm dropping.
I’m not trying to be rude but have you ever had alcohol laced chocolate. Also it’s pretty common that once your drunk you start to not taste alcohol from then on so it’s easy to over drink or in her case overeat.
I have had alcohol laced chocolate, and I guess the skepticism for this trope in this particular story is -
a) theyre laced with whiskey which has an extremely strong taste so its very surprising she didn't notice at least from the first few.
b) to get drunk on chocolate laced with alcohol (which mind you, you're also eating something which will reduce the immediate impact of alcohol) you'd need to have a significant amount to get drunk on it.
c) shes a doctor, someone researched and knowledgeable she's not some sheltered character who is unfamiliar with alcohol.
TLDR: basically that whole situation just seems highly unlikely and annoyed me lol, but hey that's just how I feel.
I dropped this... I can't... I hate this trope so much
I'm waiting for the officials but thats a worrying sign ╥﹏╥
ಥ‿ಥ goodluck... <3
yall shes a doctor, youre telling me a fcking doctor can't tell when chocolates have alcohol in them?? and to double down the emperor said that theyre strong whiskey, and she ate 10 of them without noticing?? I know it's not a major plot point but I hate this trope ~~I accidentally had booze and lots of it, now Im drunk heheh~~ when the FL's are supposed to be smart, I'll give it a pass for the 'sweet/naive type' FL's but not the ones that are supposedly smart.
