Yes. I'm so, so tired of people erasing Bonnie's development in the attempt to defend her -- as though being a witch isn't a crucial part of her identity, as though she doesn't define herself as such. If you want to ~get to know~ Bonnie, pay attention to how she uses her powers, jfc.
Preach.
Amen. Obviously I'm wary because - this show - but I think that's clearly the shape of her arc and has been for a long time now.
Me too, me too. please don't disappoint too much show.
The thing is that yes, she has a very strong moral core and she can't not help people in need, but there's always been a lot of hubris in her -- because she can do things that others cannot.
Yes this. It's what always troubled me about people saying that she's the most "heroic" character on the show and implying that her base motivation for doing things is simple altruism. It flattens her out as a character and it doesn't really jive with so many of her actions - I just need this season to get her to articulate something to this effect this season because surely the last couple of episodes of s3 mean something.
