Idk what author need to hear this but ur character being self aware of their bad choices isn’t a good cover up for bad writing.

Like if you wanna be cliche own that shit and stop footing around it.

Just for clarification sake do you mean if they are self-aware of themselves being evil that automatically makes the writing bad or you just saying to stop using it to cover things up I just need this clarified
This happens mostly in fics (bc that’s all I read) and it’s so annoying bro just write something else if you know that what you’re doing sucks
