Nah. Actually I need more people to talk about Becky Barnes.
She buys toys for the sick children at her job. She works as a nurse. At a hospital for kids. The entire town ignored the clear and obvious signs of physical abuse she was suffering FOR YEARS and did nothing about it. She has no real connections to anyone because her husband beat the shit out of anyone she ever talked to and herself if she tried to form them.
One day, when she finally fought back, he grabbed a fucking KNIFE to put an end to it.
To save her own life, she stabbed her husband in the fucking throat in the middle of the witchwoods and walked out of there alive and free with blood on her hands.
And she went back to work at the same job he forced her to take because the kids there needed her. She went back to living in the same town that still refused to see her for who she was and what she had gone through.
They all believed he left her and instead of pity, assume she did something to drive him off.
Meanwhile she does not regret what she did. In fact, she secretly hopes he died out there in those woods. As alone as he made her feel.
Absolutely insane to me that a character like this exists and that she's so rarely mentioned in this fandom.
Edit: I have been told that I got biology wrong. Becky stabs Stanley in the leg, not the neck. However! I do still think she deserves to stab him in the neck. Ya know, as a treat.
