@highfantasy The trope I dislike the most is the character, usually young and female, that states categorically that they don’t need anybody’s help, promptly need someone’s help, somehow manage to survive through the skin of their teeth or PiS, then state, again, that they don’t need anyone’s help.
I want to write a story where we see several of these characters that get killed in increasingly gruesome ways.
The one I love, though, is the oblivious character. The one that everything happens around them and they aren’t sure what is happening, but they do their best. I think they’re adorable. Like the ‘Useless Lesbian’ trope. I know a lot (most? All?) lesbians detest it, but they’re so funny and, yeah, adorable in their uselessness. ♂️ Sorry to all the lesbians that hate it.
