#WordWeavers May 5: Is your MC aware of their flaw?
Darroll isn't. Juniper barely is.
J. is, but doesn't think it's important.
Imogen is, and of the four, is the most likely one to actually pull herself together and do something to fix herself. (The events of The Devil's Finger give her enough of a boot in the ass to ensure she does.)
#WordWeavers 5/5. Is your MC aware of their flaw?
Yes. Painfully so.
He wants to be better about it, but he struggles.
#WordWeavers May 5: Is your MC aware of their flaw?
It seems unlikely. If they were before, they weren’t letting it bother them. They might do some reflection now, but I’m not sure their conclusions will include such awareness. Someone might help them, if they choose to listen and accept it.
#WordWeavers May 5: Is your MC aware of their flaw?
My characters take more conventional views of themselves and so are convinced that they are deeply flawed. Some of them make lists.
#WordWeavers May 4 - What's your MC's critical flaw?
The flaw/strength view of characteristics makes very little sense to me but it will be better to avoid that rant.
I'll add that, apart from being a pov that doesn't work for me, it also gives books a stale 'painting by numbers' feel.
#WordWeavers May 5: Is your MC aware of their flaw?
Yes. She's very abruptly made aware of it at the beginning of the story and has to learn to tamp it down. She's canny.

#WordWeavers May 5: Is your MC aware of their flaw?
Carlos: Is very aware of both flaws, but doesn't see any way of overcoming either of them.
Angel: Much like Carlos, except for insecurity. They don't realize how insecure they are.
Jessie and David: Both nope, at least at the beginning of the book. Jessie thinks her self-image is accurate, though she starts to learn otherwise as the story progresses. David also starts learning about his own flaw as events unfold.
Margot: N/A?
#WordWeavers 5/5 Is your MC aware of their flaw?
Very. Her ability to hack is directly tied to her ability to remember anything. So, she has a journal, an analog back-up drive for her life, she must always check after a hack.
It doesn’t always line up.

Vaugely.
