And you don't have to shaft the leviathan fight because of giving Adam more time, anyway. They weren't given a 1 hour limit timetable. They make the timetable. And a quick, 10 second change is all it would have taken.

And towards the cause of her PTSD being the sword or Adam, it's irrelevant to my point. So maybe Adam's stance isn't what triggers it but the slash beginning. My example solution still work all the same, with the same gravity. And I fail to see how her reacting strongly to Adam at Brunswick Farm is BECAUSE of the Apathy. If anything, apathy would make her calmer. And seeing that as the most recent freeze up shows how much healing she still needs to do. And if she is healing over time - 30 second > 10 seconds > 3 seconds all I was hoping for was 1 second of a freeze. 1 second to make the other freeze's weight truly show.

Yang is a character that was introduced to us by showing off her strength and will. Losing her arm and Blake broke her. She's shown the most emotional distress since then, and it makes sense. Her PTSD felt out of character to me - I've worked with quite a few PTSD vets - and the cause was never something like hers. I'm not ruling it out, obviously, we've covered that - this shit's complex. So putting so much emphasis on something that felt so wrong to me and then having it never even truly impact her when face to face with the cause just feels wrong and wasted. And I see a lot of other people feel the same way.
