Truly the discourse I want to set fire to is “this side character that I became inexplicably attached to isn’t important to the plot and has little depth and is just a plot device and now I’m going to disparage the author for not dropping everything and making that one random ass special little guy SO IMPORTANT.” Like my brother in Shakespeare, SOME CHARACTERS ARE JUST THERE TO FULFILL A SINGLE ROLE AND THEN EXIT STAGE LEFT.
Signed a person whose special little guys are almost always minor so I just fucking write fanfic instead of crying about it.
#truly some unhinged shit#like yes there are criticisms when MAIN characters are sidelined#given next to nothing to do#and are superficial at best#im literally talking about like#the gravedigger in hamlet levels of relevant to the plot
