But seriously the trending story is basically "Super sweet child would never do anything to hurt people. Super sweet child grows up and suddenly has a super powerful and deadly ability that kills their family. Super sweet child now angsts over everything and yet they are still super sweet.

There was no angst about her past at all and everyone in the roleplay still loved her.
