Just cause I read worse don't mean it ain't cursed
Okay, okay, okay.
I'm really, really bored of reading a linear progression of "Asshole to angel with a 'tude". I'm not saying it's not fun to write, or that it's not a good trope... I just want some variety.
So allow me to propose a thing for all of you people who are looking for new character ideas.
I love this trope. Love, love, LOVE this trope! It's SO GOOD. Just taking someone the characters viewed as perfect and maybe a bit otherworldly and showing that they're just the same as everyone else and, often, under a lot of stress. Watching a roleplayer take this nigh-flawless character and break them is just... *Chef kiss*. Perfect angst. And that one moment when they decide that they're okay with not splitting themself 100 different ways to try and please everyone and double-checking everything because they thought they have to be perfect is... amazing.
So, anyway,
Thoughts?

~Good character slowly falling into a pit of depression and poor mental health due to stress~
