"Even when someone else dies, it's Zoey-Sue who gets all the attention!"
All I can think about is when Cleolinda Jones did the parody Mary Sue meme. When her Sue's boyfriend killed himself because she refused to marry him, she said "It was so sad. Everyone felt so sorry for me!" And that was meant to be one of the most outrageous Mary Sue parodies ever!
The thing is, Aphrodite has done a couple of things which are really nasty (forcing sex on Erik while he keeps making it clear he's not interested and having the kids bleed themselves for the ritual), but the Cast ladies handle it in the most clumsy way possible. The whole forced sex on Erik thing is ignored entirely, and the only reason her bleeding the fledglings matters is because it was done to Stevie Rae (Elliott, of course, doesn't matter -_-), which is also forgotten. Because the two worst things she did were brushed aside, the hatred of her comes across as overly petty and mean-spirited on the parts of the protagonists. So yeah, well done of the Cast ladies. -_-
