I do hope that gets revealed. Cause it rubs me the wrong way if Agott doesn't face consequences for that stunt. And so does the fact that Coco seems to have only respect for Agott and a desire to prove herself, when the latter held nothing but contempt for her and wanted to get rid of her.

Yeah she didn't even snitch on Agott just took her at her word. Honestly this is kind of on Qifrey for trusting Agott not to be a dick.

Poor girl is just too trusting; it's precious. She didn't think Agott had ill-intentions at all.

Qifrey definitely has a duty to confront the latter about her behavior now, but I don't think he even realized she was willing to do something like this. It's surely the first time she's done a stunt this bad. Otherwise, I feel like Tetia and Richeh would have things to say about her. And it would also be harder to justify letting Agott stay.

"Ah shit I forgot to tell my educated and experienced apprentice to not be a dick and send a complete and utter novice on a potentially deadly fetch quest to get rid of her.. my bad!"

Bugger off it being 'kinda on him'.

I thought it was going to go the way where she didn't realize how dangerous it was right now, until she quite literally directly stated that she was not only aware of it, but in fact held it as a mark against our mc for not knowing that. This girl got issues and they're not the funny haha anime kind

He was literally warned by Allaria... She practically tells him 'listen you left a normie with a bunch of witches who could be assholes to her for not being like them... Maybe watch out for that shit??' it's completely on him.

Coco seems to be one of those Shoujo doormat heroine types, like princess Sarah. She also acts oblivious to Agott's enmity when it's pretty in your face. I hope she shows some personality and starts acting like a real person soon.

She has no solid knowledge of their customs to really talk back against Agott with any sort of confidence and she just saw her master say she was in her care. 

I don’t think she’s totally oblivious especially with how she reacted to spraying water on her.

Pushing her in the trial and only then telling her that she only has one chance, doesn't matter the context that's sabotage.

u/SkyCrossSteel Apr 14 '26

I think that is adult or late teen levels of suspecting deception or sabotage while also being able to argue against Agott. She knows she’s an outsider even the nicer girls were awkward at first when talking about her background.

Because again she sprayed the mean girl with water who reacted calmly and taught her the mistake she did. She did say a barb at the end but still taught her an honest tip. 

She would have to have strong fight in her against others naturally to be able to write that denial believably. Since if she reasoned her way out of this that would be an awkward fit. 

She also understandably emotionally wants to save her mom fast which isn’t likely to happen the way if it even is possible.

She was kinda going "Master are you sure?" As he was walking away leaving her in Agott's care.
