Loved this take. I've always thought about the trauma plot and how it's utilized. I think when people say ‘its just a book’ or ‘its just a character’ dehumanized something that's supposed to emulate or at best take reference from real life. Even if trauma does shape decisions it should never shape the story I believe.

Right like art is created to elicit and response and even if perhaps the people are not real, the storylines deserve to be treated with care because of how they speak to people?? Ahhh thanks for sharing <3
