Aw, this is great stuff :) And I agree with it all. Especially your #4, about her breakdown. I really don't quite understand why people think that everything that happened there was Laura shirking her duties - she was having a real breakdown, and all that PTSD that she'd managed to stave off for the past few years was finally crashing down on her. I was more surprised it hadn't happened before!
Thank you for the prompt! There's room for #4 to be tricky, I'll admit, because that kind of behavior isn't the norm and people don't expect it from her, but I absolutely think it makes sense in the larger context of her storyline.
Anyway, yeah, I'm with you. I think the audience can really underestimate the levels of PTSD affecting all these characters.
