#El can't HELP she was born with evil magical talent. Leave her alone.

[ace-and-ranty]

Not to start the same rant I wrote out months ago, but I will say it again:

El didn't have to undergo character development TO make friends.

She had to undergo character development BECAUSE she made friends.

#The Scholomance #I WILL DEFEND MY GIRL TO THE END #we have been explicitly told El's massive magic powers make people instinctively avoid her #yes she is a bitch. NO that is NOT why she could never make friends. #your social development would be stunted too if people run from you before you had the chance to form relationships. #El made friends because her circunstances changed (ie Orion happened) #and THEN she had to grow and adapt because her old strategies stopped making sense #just saw someone say El's isolation was 'self imposed' and Im like #DID YOU OR DID YOU NOT READ THE RAIN CONVERSATION #El can't HELP she was born with evil magical talent. Leave her alone.
