[TW: Ableist language]Every-one needs to calm down. If people decide to dislike Erica you’re no-one to tell them they can’t.
Honestly from what I’ve seen of her I don’t like her much. Do I feel sorry for the pain she went through? Yes, yes I do. But I know plenty of people who have gone through their own damn struggles and they aren’t blatantly rude or crude like that.
So far the writers showed nothing that could deem her the least bit likable. She took out Stiles maliciously and enjoyed it (don’t you dare say she didn’t, I will screen cap her face for you if I must) and from what we’ve seen there’s nothing to link Stiles to being one of her former tormentors for her to have acted so aggressively. And let’s be honest it’s Stiles if he ever did interact with her it was basically a spazz out “Like hey, Erica had a nice weekend? I mean you were in the hospital so obviously not, with hospitals sucking and people feeling sucky when they go so, umm yeah, well Scott’s calling bye”
It’s not a feminist move either. I love that she’s confident in her sexuality, she’s a beautiful woman. But while Lydia is likable even though she’s a bitch Erica doesn’t have that charming quality. Nor does she have Allison’s silent strength, that makes her deadly. Neither does she have the edgy determination and fearlessness that makes Momma Argent one scary but respected woman.
She very rapidly became everything she hated and that doesn’t sit well with me.
okay firstly, don’t tag your fucking hate.
they aren’t blatantly rude or crude like that.
…what because she ate an apple while looking fabulous? She’s 16, a new werewolf, her confidence is through the fucking roof, she’s powertripping. much like isaac. much like derek.
She took out Stiles maliciously and enjoyed it
well yeah she punched him because derek needed him out of the way for his dorkwolf showdown. as for enjoyed it, see above, powertripping, omg i am newly superstrong this is awesome. also stiles was completely fixated on her tits i’d punch him too.

ok i don’t think you understand what feminism is but. to address your lydia point, erica does not fucking owe it to you to be charming. and then you just kind of make a series of statements. i mean. allison is in no way silent? and. erica is determined and probably pretty fearless?
will you just call her a slutty bitch already it’ll make this a lot easier for the both of us.
She very rapidly became everything she hated
…when did she mock anyone for having epilepsy? i mean. she didn’t mock anyone for any in born traits. she didn’t bully anyone either, unless you count bullying as ‘existing while being more fierce than everyone in the surrounding area’. and if you mean her whole demeanor - she obviously already had those clothes, if you watch closely she has multiple ear piercings, not something you generally get if you don’t have a specific idea for how you want to look. she’s probably wanted to become everything she was in this episode for a long fucking time, she’s probably had that rage for a long fucking time, because disabled people are not inherently meek or ‘weak’, and they don’t owe it to you or anyone else to be nice about it, whether they get a magic werewolf cure or not.
EDIT: oh, and ‘spazz out’ is not the phrase to use in a post about a former epileptic, fucking hell.
