"This trope where she refuses to trust anyone except herself and takes unnecessary risks because of that is starting to get annoying. Like, you can't ask an adult like Maia, who actually cares aboit you, for help with something simple like sending a message to Locris? What utter, teenage idiocy." — Jan 22, 2026 11:21AM
