    Am I the only one who couldn’t stand Tilly? It wasn’t even her character so much as her arc. She was a nervous, non confident ensign and within a few years she’s an officer? Get the fuck outta here. It would have been more believable if her story had developed smaller and ended with her finally having confidence enough to apply for officer school. She progressed way too much while still being annoying and childish

      Ensigns are officers. She went from a nervous cadet to being a confident officer (LtJG in S5). That’s not a weird arc for military members. Even in real life i saw guys go through the same changes. If you encourage people and put them in situations that can build their confidence they can and often do become more confident people.

        Both can be right:

        Some people are annoying, and you’re not required to like them.

        People evolve given the context of their trajectory.
