I guess they didn't use Miriam more because of the Clarice rights (she was kind of like an odd combination of Will from Red Dragon, finding the Wounded Man and getting stabbed, and Clarice the FBI intern who tracks Hannibal from SoTL) but it was also such a shame because SHE AND ABIGAIL COULD HAVE BEEN TRAUMA BUDDIES. (I guess also she's a little bit of the daughter who's kidnapped in SOTL?)
I KNOW I WAS SO DEVASTATED. When it happened it was literally like, an instantaneous reaction in my brain where I went, "BEVERLEYYYYY!!!! NOOOOO!!! Okay we'll just be ignoring that and rewriting canon, let's move on" over the course of half a second, lol. I wish they hadn't made the decision to kill her off, although I appreciated the discussion of it
Aww, I hadn't seen the BTS stuff (because I was SO UPSET) but yeah, it didn't seem like it came from a place of just killing off a WOC because she pissed off the showrunners or they didn't know what to do with her (Carter on PoI, for one....). But yeah, it's still an instantaneous NOPE THAT DIDN'T HAPPEN IN FIC SORRY BEV IS TOO AWESOME TO DIE. From what I remember the Sassy Science Bros were really upset.
