I'd love an alternate protagonist that's not stupid. I'm just sitting here like "Should you really be surprised that everyone's blabbing about [insert plot element about protagonist]?", or "Oh, come ON, [insert character here] is clearly [insert respective earthshattering revelation about character here]", or even "For fuck's sake, calm down a second and think things through", expecting the protagonist to do anything less stupid. Do they? No.
But I'd assume that's exactly what the [insert group here] would want for their master plan to [insert master plan here], wouldn't they?
You know who I'm talking about.
