You're talking about a "genius" who pokes her brain with a knife to get off. This character wasn't very well thought out and is a prime example of why you should write genius characters unless you are also a genius.
If she wanted to read it piece, go buy a gun, steal a boat and go find an uninhabited island

Not defending the shit writing, but being intelligent doesn't make you successful. Some of the smartest people on Earth are just weird spergs who play chess or study something like history or physics. She's been dragged into Machiavellian schemes but has zero interest in them.

>you should write genius characters unless you are also a genius.
Not that I meant to imply the bitch in OP's image is a compelling character, but this specifically is one of the most retarded things you people parrot. Can't write a genius because you're not one, so you don't know how they think. Can't write an athlete because you're not one, so you don't know how they train. Can't write a wizard because they don't exist, so you don't know magic. Stop being retarded.
>>
>>220359581
The Sister Sage storyline really suffers from the lack of Vought and the corporate system as a real antagonistic force in the show. The comics had a lot of problems, but they really hit home the corporate horror element, the show more or less ignores it.

When we have Vought as a corporate beast, it makes total sense that they'd 'nope' her attempts to save her grandma, and then later it makes sense that she'd want to wreck the whole world to get them to leave her alone.
>>
>>220360527
the whole "corporate horror" thing died in its crib when they turned james into madelyn, made her terrified of homelander, killed her in season 1, then made a second james in edgar and sidelined him forever.
>>
>>220360466
I don't know about "can't" but you really probably shouldn't. Authors get ripped to shreds frequently for not doing basic research on stuff and just winging it. You don't have to get a PhD in what you're writing about but you do need to do some decent research.
You also don't need to be a genius to write a genius but you better have some level of intelligence or run it by someone or several people that do
Studios literally have people dedicated to research and hire consultants aka people who have actually experienced the shit you are writing about
>>
>>220360562
Honestly I think the Madelyn storyline was the only time it did work. She was handling Homelander, and doing well at it until Butcher kicked things into 11th gear. Everything after that was a crapshoot. Some Stan Edgar stuff was fine (and the actor tried his best), but it really just made the lack of it everywhere else more obvious.
>>
>>220360577
>You also don't need to be a genius to write a genius but you better have some level of intelligence or run it by someone or several people that do
Isn't that just a basic rule of writing? If you don't fully understand the shit you wanna write about, research it until you do, or work with people who do to make sure it makes sense. The whole "you literally can't write a character who's smarter than you" crap people constantly parrot online is just completely stupid. A good writer who wants their story to feel real will spend weeks or months making sure their super-duper-smart character's reasoning makes sense. Just like they'd do the exact same thing if they were writing about astronauts, or firefighters, or whatever.

Such an awful, awful character. She was annoying from the start, with her thin skinned insistence on "smartest person" and her retarded identity politics. "Genius" characters are notoriously difficult to write, and she reeks of DEI-hire woman writing.

I think was included as fiat for Homlander's takeover to succeed. If so, it was the wrong decision.

Anything she contributed could have been replaced by dumb luck or shrewdness on the part of Homelander (which we have seen him be capable of before).

Sage is objectively a genius. At least that's what the show is saying, she's the smartest person ever.

Short-sighted writing has plagued this show. If some shit (the exposure of The Boys' identities, Becca, whatever tf s3's ending was supposed to be) had been more planned out and better paced, they might not have been left with all of these characters that have nothing to do.

In season one they showed us that he was running a global distribution network to get V to various groups in order to create supervillains, and he was doing it without anyone at Vought even suspecting what was happening. It was the major plot point of that whole season.

That was interesting, they just barely did anything with it.

they did negative things with it. that plot thread is annihilated in the first episode of season 2 when they simply kill all the supervillains.
>>
>>220360693
Progressive brain rot just can't get around this. Every one of their boogie men falls into the problem of being simultaneously a complete laughable joke yet somehow the greatest threat ever known to humanity.
It's also a strong contributing factor to why their fiction is now so horrible. They can't write compelling antagonists at all as a result.

It is weird to me Sage thinks that once the virus is released supes that aren’t immediately infected are gonna genocide humans in return and the Boys haven’t once thought that a possibility or atleast aren’t planning for it. ‘Omelanda must die is pretty much all they think about.
>>
>>220361499
She actually does say that they'll try to genocide the humans. She just doesn't care because she'll be in her bunker reading Ludwig Wittgenstein.

And earlier someone also said that if the virus was released somewhere not close to Homelander, HL would just fly into space and start lasering shit until it seems safe to come back down.
>>
>>220361544
It would be a funny ending if they kill Homelander but in between every supe being virused and dying the supes wipe out 90% of humanity too.

People in the Boys universe are way dumber on average so Sage being the smartest person on Earth is the equivalent of an average human IRL, simple.
