I think that Stephania really is strong and stubborn. It does well for her, at least in some cases. She's smart and kind, and I think that sometimes she's a little too kind for Vincenzo. She's willing to give him support, and he's just a jerk enough to turn that support away.

Vincenzo is smart and determined, but he's stupid in some ways. I understand he's been hurt, but he's just so damaged, and I think he likes that damage. ( )
