Not my intention. I was attempting to say “Don’t condemn the work as irredeemably anti-feminist or whatever before it’s even finished.” I see how I could have been misunderstood, though.
That would need to be qualified somehow—I don’t care what the second volume of the rules of FATAL are, the system as a whole is irredeemably anti-feminist.
I think this may not be a ‘fridging’ simply because we don’t know what role it plays in the story yet. It may be a Damsel In Distress + Girl In The Refrigerator combo, and it may be something else. It could be both a DiD+GitR AND something else. It could subvert or twist the tropes (Hermione helps fake her own death). It could play them straight but make up for it in other ways (as is already happening with Minerva also gaining a level despite not being the typical beneficiary of this trope, but I’m thinking more so).
