No I'm just exploring the motivations of a character, I mean other than just writing her off as pure evil which is something I would expect from the very worst writing.
There you are again, with that little jap, the little Snarky comment, "bad writing", You just can't help it do you ?
.Now, with the more serious conversation
. Are you sure, you want motivation , or you want justification? Not the Same. We can give Quinn a tear full background story, you think that should give her a free pass for her behaviour? What you fishing for here ?. Quinn not give maya hard time because of some lesson to teach her, because All mighty Maya look down on her,
- nice fanfiction, can't wait for your story that you writing. Keep us updated, I can't wait, to throw shade at DPC that how much a better writer you are - But that's not the story.
Quinn motivation is money. whatever the reason why she needs it, while it can be a sappy heartbreaking story, won't change the fact how she obtained it. She see Maya as an easy target. someone that She can exploit for her own benefits, in the meantime she messing with her because She loves messing with people, she good at it, and in this way she can control them. This not makes her a pure evil, just for the sake of evil, she is far from evil, . but whatever the reason for it not really matter, becasue her actions speak. thats what who she is. We know this, because we playing the game, this is her charm.
Thanos is a great villain, one of the best, and he is not pure evil, he is not a brainless monster who kills just because he enjoy it. In his mind he actually doing a favor for the galaxy. We see, we, know, we understand his motivation, god we might even agree with it. Does not change the fact that the solution he choose is to kill peoples. He atain god power, and he use it not to creat, but to destroy. That is why he is a bad guy. A Villain, and yet we like him for what he is. Quinn is the same. I don't hate her for this, I like her. This is not bad writing at all.
Now Maya is a different story. While She has a motivation to enter the Hots. She meets a hostile environment that would not change her view on them. It is absolutely the opposite of MC's experience. MC while may face a little hard time, everyone encouraging him that he is welcomed here, keep pushing it, it will worth it.
If Maya would experience the same, She more than likely would feel a little ashamed for her selfish reason to join and would probably come clean about it, and if the Hots would been a different, they would not even blame her.
but this all just : "What should, what would
if " - and not the actual story.
In the actual story, Sage is a Bad President, this mess is on her.
but I still love her.
