eve didn't show true growth (at least not yet idk what happens for her in the future but hopefully she gets something better than what's happened so far). i'll say i didn't watch the eve special so maybe if i watched that i would feel differently but tbh why didn't they just write her better in the main storyline 😕
You said they failed to execute the "trope" even tho they're just following canon. Amber indeed was boring compared to Eve. Probably worth noting that the show hasn't even gotten that far with Eves story. I mean she just started dating Mark in S3 and barely made appearances in S4.
