Perhaps they expected their allies to punish them for a failure, and instead they’re kicked out or banished and told never to return. And the longer the situation goes on, the harder it’ll be for that belief to change.Īlternatively, the character might be incorrect, because their low expectations were too high. The character might derive some brief satisfaction from being proven right, but it’s nothing compared to the bleak resignation that their life is always going to suck. Or they expect their team to mistreat them, or ignore their declining well-being, and this is exactly what happens. Maybe they think anyone who acts like a friend will betray them, and they’re right. The character’s unhappy expectations might be correct.
It makes sense, and this way they’ll be prepared (if that’s possible) and won’t be disappointed. When a character has been through enough misery, they’re likely to begin expecting the worst from life and the people around them.
