The competence of the ML ALMOST makes up for the too-stupid-to-live heroine! Almost.

Trauma usually at least instills some caution and self-preservation instincts, sweetie. This is a criticism of bad writing, and bad writing only. I have the utmost respect for trauma victims. I will defend the fuck out of well-written traumatized characters. I do it all the time. What I can’t respect is poorly done characterization that leaves us with a female lead that has no other traits than innocent (out of place), and lacking self confidence (tried, but too shallow).
This is me, running away very fastly.
