Everyone being a hero and doing something of use didn't happen in season 1 either. The only ones were Fabian for replacing the elixir all of a sudden, Alfie for faking his death and Nina for building the cup. They were standing around in the cellar like they were standing around in the library in season 2. So it's really not any better for the other Sibuna members in season 1. Or worse. But everyone DID get a moment to shine. Again, we had Jerome being reunited with his family. Eddie having his talk with Mr. Sweet. Joy reconciling with Fabian. Amber and Alfie "giving Amfie another go." What did these characters do in the season 1 finale after the big climax? Amber gave Fabina the spotlight in the prom, Fabian kissed Nina, Nina kissed Fabian, Fabina Fabina Fabina. FaBLEAH. Yes, they did kiss in the season 2 finale, but it wasn't a whole big finale thing like in season 1. Everyone came running out in the end. The season ended with everyone together, and then we had that AWESOME cliffhanger ending. One of the best cliffhangers of the show. (That could be a good poll for the weekly poll--which was the most suspenseful cliffhanger?)

What did Amber do? She flipped the book and found the tunnel, then made Alfie do everything for her. Alfie was admittedly very active--he did the whole switching the amulets thing (which I was very impressed by), went into the fear tunnel for Amber, and was very proactive. (Maybe HE should be the Sibuna leader. Alfie as leader...wouldn't that be interesting? But I digress.) And while I do agree that Patricia should have been more active this season, I don't think it was ALL about Eddie for her. She had Joy back and was dealing with friendship drama with her. (I'm going to stop talking about this point right here because this could turn into a LONG Joytricia rant.) We saw some of her family issues with Piper. (Admittedly, Piper coming WAS partly for Peddie, but it also gave insight into Patricia's character and her family life.) And, of course, we have her in Sibuna. She wasn't as active as maybe Alfie or Fabian or even Nina, but it wasn't like she was in the background doodling "Mrs. Miller" in a journal while the others were walking across the chasm. She was doing the missions, but she wasn't taking charge of them. She wasn't really doing anything Sibuna-related on her own; she was 'just another Sibuna member,' which I think is the problem. Wait, how did this go from a s1 finale vs. s2 finale debate to a Patricia one?

Nah, it's fine. I'd rather have long paragraphs to respond to than tiny ones anyway. (Who is Queenie again? I can't remember people...oops...XD)
