ya know I think the thing with the way the TLMOE writers are writing Erica is that they keep making stuff happen to her but they never really let her react to it properly, except on a couple of occasions. Like, she should ABSOLUTELY have had a scene somewhere around The Open-Ended Nature of Unwitnessed Death where she came to terms with what happened to Mike, and she never did, and while her speech at Lewis’s funeral is good it only really scratched the surface of what she’d been through. So I really hope the introduction of Jasper does what it promised and gives us the audience a chance to really find out what makes her tick I guess? I’d really like an arc where she gets terribly overprotective of him or something, afraid that he’s going to die as well, before coming round to him obviously being a capable kid and learning to accept that she isn’t “cursed”.
I just want more of her and her smile and her fabulous boho dresses.
