Informed Kindness works better than Informed Attribute, because it's more specific


* InformedAttribute: A rare InUniverse example. When the evil fairy says that Beast is cruel and deserves to die, Beauty says that he's sweet...because he told her so. Although oddly, when she was earlier asked by Clara on what she thought of Beast, Beauty thoroughly explained she believed he was good because he treats her so kindly and respectfully, and lavishes her with anything she could want.

** To compensate for Beauty about to be killed by him, the Beast gives her family a giant chest of jewels and gold, which they use to move back to the city.

** To compensate for Beauty about to be killed by him, the Beast gives her family a giant chest of jewels and gold, which they use to move back to the city. He also decides shortly thereafter that he can't bring himself to kill Beauty after all, either because he's already fallen for her or because he realizes that she was innocent in all this.


Added DiffLines:

** Furthermore, since the Beast had never shown himself to Beauty's father up to that point and everything else that he could possibly need was seemingly provided to him by the castle itself, it was a reasonable assumption that taking one single rose from a ''huge'' bush of them as a gift for his beloved daughter would be okay, too; while the old man turned out to be wrong in assuming this, there was also no indication that he ''wasn't'' allowed to take one of the roses.

* DumbBlonde: Beauty comes off as an unintentional example, mainly due to her naive, well-intentioned desire to see the best in people, which proves true for the Beast, but regarding her sisters, it made it easy for them to trick her into believing they really do care about her. Her apparent habit of spacing out and coming off as slow on the uptake certainly doesn't help.

** Extra points to Old Man--when he gets outright indignant at what he sees as a slap to the face, the Beast gets just as angry and warns that he ''will'' kill him if he doesn't leave right this very second. Instead of backing down, Old Man gets ''even angrier'' and looks like he's about ready to kill the Beast himself. As mentioned above, Beauty stops them both.

* LazyBum: Alicia and Pauline do absolutely nothing except spend their father's money when they were originally wealthy, whereas their brothers helped run the family business and Beauty devoted her time doing charity work. After they became poor, the two still spend most of their time lazing around and barking orders at Beauty.

So even she's got a limit to how much of their whining she can brush off.
