#muse ddba

am I the only one who doesn’t really care for heather as a character? she is quite literally only there to move the plot along for SEVERAL characters, we don’t have any reason to like her other than the fact that she’s a psychiatrist and Matt’s girlfriend. the reason we cared so much for Karen, (as an example) was because she had her own human moments in the show. caring for Frank, researching, being worried for Matt. We got a whole backstory as to why she moved to New York, and that’s why we care about her so so much. But… heather has no human moments of her own. Sure, in the newest episode, she defended herself against muse by shooting him, but that’s it. That’s the only human moment we see of her that isn’t being influenced by another character. personally, I think it would’ve been better for her to have just… passed out, and ended up at the hospital, where it would be implied that Matt stabilized her. and also, it doesn’t really help that they wrote her to be on Fisks side on the whole “vigilante” thing. As a very professional (seeming) psychiatrist, she must know that being “underdeveloped” is not the only reason people turn to vigilantism. I don’t know if it’s just the writing that’s flawed, or if they made her character intentionally flawed, but I think the reason why she’s against vigilantes as a whole is because of… Frank. she analyzed the court documents, and came to the conclusion that Frank was insanely mentally ill and “underdeveloped”, so her brain just kinda compartmentalizes all vigilantes as bad, and the whole muse thing didn’t help with that either. idk, just wanted to give my thoughts.
