Get out of jail free card for psychopath

Every time I see this particular trope, I hate it.The villain, whether male or female, is revealed to have had some trauma in childhood, which must excuse all the human and other wreckage they have left in their wake ever after.

Would that still be true if those three thugs had managed to kill Luk and Ram? It certainly wasn't for lack of trying on their part that they didn't quite manage it. And Namning didn't care - either way would have been okay with her, at least as far as Luk went.



Nam is a criminal, just as much as the three thugs she hired. She should go to jail. But of course this is BL world, and all the little fujoshi would be upset if she was punished as she would be in the real world.


Forgiveness is not a virtue if all it does it demonstrate to a violent miscreant that she can get away with any evil she does, as long as she can claim special privilege for having had a less than ideal childhood. And even that was pretty small potatoes compared to real childhood abuse.
