#welp *tosses rosabella into the pile of underdeveloped characters to potentially hyperfixate on and rewrite*

[wildflowercryptid]

as much as i like rosabella and daringbella, i can agree that it was a poor writing decision to spotlight her and their potential relationship in epic winter before either had any actual development beforehand.

like i think making daring the beast is a really interesting choice, (it fits well since the reason why the beast was cursed in the first place was due to his vanity and refusal to help others in need,) but they really needed to give rosabella some more characterization moments before plopping her into a romance subplot. before epic winter, she only really featured once or twice in the webisodes and the only charming we got to see her interact with was darling. i can get why people get a little frustrated over daring ending up with her when he already had established chemistry with other characters.

i also feel like rosabella had the potential to be a really cool character, (i always love seeing characters w/ nerdy aesthetics that don't fall into the meek wallflower trope,) but considering the common writing tropes of the time and that eah was already heading towards its twilight years by epic winter, i can't really say i'm surprised that they dropped the ball with her.
