I think that people ttalk more about the trauma of Miles and Athena than the trauma of Maya, Trucy or Klavier is because the later do not express it the “conventional way”, so to speak. Miles has a hard time dealing with his PTSD and he has visible triggers in the game (tremors and elevators), and whilr Athena looks happy go lucky she has a mental breakdown in 5-5, but we do not see that with the others. Maya is always quirky and cheery, she didn’t even react as much after all the Dahlia thing, Trucy the same as she is always putting a happy facade, even when she was 8 years old and everything was crumbling around her, and the time Klavier actually gets distraught is treated like a diva tantrum rather than a trauma response. And because they’re not acting in a stereotypical way, it means that they must be ok and not suffering, right? (Obviously not of course)
