ok the whole blame game and that the critics and social media talking about Carol and saying “would u blame her?” and basically telling us what we should think and feel. 🙄
I just feel that whole thing is weird. I think it’s because it’s a story. There’s people who wanna watch a character rise and fall and rise again. It’s also depends how the writers will do it..which is partly like “do you (still) trust the writers?” “Do you still think the character is still in-character?” If yes, then just wait and see how it plays out. Maybe the character will come around. I mean to me personally s9-Carol was the worst...I hated it because I feel she was the most out of character of Carol. So.. lol. But right now, IMO, I still feel Carol is in-character. I still think the writers have a plan on that she’s in this revenge arc and at her worst. And making mistakes and she cares-she cried ...that she’s like oh shit my TF is injured and I’m messing things up but want this revenge so bad. I think ep 9 is her breaking point.
The whole blame game from fandom/social media is like the fans don’t have the control on this story...and every fan have their bias and opinion. So what. It’s like Idc what you guys think. It’s up to me if I feel writers are consistent and Carol is still in-character. It’s up to my opinion.
If it’s all in real life and not a story(with arcs, plots, character development ..life is everything and unpredictable) I would say hey Carol don’t get involved in these missions or I would tell her if she’s so determined to kill Alpha and not focusing on her loved ones, I need to have my space and avoid Carol. I don’t need drama in my life like that. So I guess in that way Daryl will be doing similar to that. If Carol cares that Daryl is walking away, that shows she cares about Daryl/TF more than Alpha/revenge. And that would be a good thing for Carol’s story/character development.
