Did I ask that? Maybe I commented once on how she came up short as a character, but it's unclear to me right now. ^^;

I don't know my friend. I'm not the ardent Zoey fan I used to be. She's more fun to follow on DA in fanfiction and fanart nowadays than she is in canon. And it's hard to argue with her many, many haters who feel that her focus hampered the show the longer her story dragged on. Because there's simply no argument that it did. I'm not moving as aggressively for her redemption these days, I'm sad to say. I want to see her get some, but it's less of a major priority in my mind right now. Her return is about 50/50 likely in the future, but now I'm mostly asking for her to be downplayed for the good of herself and the rest of the series.

Don't get me wrong, she like so many others could really use a serious redemption. But I'm not sure how urgent hers is right now.

It's hard to believe that last year I got myself into so much trouble defending her character when the ravings against her were going nonstop, and now I find myself agreeing with the side I argued so much with back then. I was never under the ridiculous impression that she was without flaws, but I didn't understand the full extent of that hate for the character until that godforsaken season was over.
