#QuestionOfTheDay What's something (a trope, plot point, character type, twist, technology, magic, decision, conceit of the genre/world, whatever) in fiction that you just can't buy.

i.e. you get that it's fiction, & that it's a thing that happens, or that in the fictional world it's accepted, justified, or explained, or fans love it, etc. It's not that you don't understand it, it's just that you don't buy it, it doesn't work for you, you just can't accept it or take it seriously, etc...

This is a judgement free zone (at least from my end) so if you're like "when space magic shows up I can't take it seriously" or "ppl being able to fly makes no sense to me" etc that's totally fine.

@ami_angelwings I'm sure there's lots of things that annoy me, but its hard to pull anything out.

I think I'll say: I enjoy time travel, but I like it to have rules the story sticks to! Though that can be explained without saying I'm not suspending my disbelief.

On the flipside it Avengers End Game annoyed me when the characters were very certain they knew those rules when they hadn't time-traveled before!
