And there is evidence of what I said about you applying different standards to the two characters.
I bet if the situation had been reversed and Chloe had fed Layla while Brooke had offered to feed Nina you wouldn't be saying that Chloe was a nicer kinder soul than Brooke.
No one's applying a double standard. It's simple: you give someone credit based on what they do, or what they've done. You don't slip a guy a paycheck, unless they actually show up for work and do their job. The same way you wouldn't award someone a commendation for meritorious action, unless they've earned it.
Brooke responded during an actual emergency. Chloe didn't. That's why Brooke gets credit, while Chloe doesn't.

No - seeing as Gotoh is in strong defense of Brooke in this matter, they probably would have seen Chloe and Brooke's actions as equally generous.
No, I wouldn't (see: previous response above)

You're using something I had said three years ago to invalidate my opinion on Brooke's behavior by trying to make me look like a hypocrite? Really?
Everyone else in that thread was like 'how are they letting Cerise walk away scott-free after what she did?' and your response basically amounted to, 'I don't see what the big deal is'. If you were me, how would that look?

Guess what? Me saying that Cerise's behavior is little more than witch's version of a temper tantrum doesn't mean I agree/look past what she did. What Cerise did was horrible and she should have faced some serious backlash for it; just as Brooke should have faced some serious backlash for willfully putting Kade's life at risk
Now that you've clarified your point, I apologize because I meant no offense.
That said, I don't see how you and dmra are convinced that Kade's life was ever at risk. EC isn't that kind of comic. No one ever died, unless it was during a past/historical event and,
even then it was
treated comically. What Brooke did was par for the course, given everything we had already seen happen up to that point and no harm came from it. Layla called her out on it and went back to her boyfriend so, as far as she's concerned, the matter's settled.
Taking the comic as a whole, it wasn't that big a deal.
