So she had a naughty streak even when she was younger. I suppose thats quite normal for many kids. She just got the opportunity to do something a lot bigger then getting into a fight.
Its also worth noting that she's barely trying to hide her misdeeds. I think she wants attention.
Also thats a very creatively-lacking school.

True...but this story is about trying to redeem these guys. So I think it’s reasonable for me to believe that her backstory is gonna have some redeemable elements to her character.
Also, A LOT of stuff is unoriginal these days - that doesn’t automatically make it bad. It’s the execution that counts, and so far the story itself is being executed in a very likable manner, so I think it’s safe to say that whatever road they take with Cozy, it‘ll be fantastic one way or the other.
Finally...how is being an “ass for the sake of it“ any more original than her having some baggage? I’ll admit they don’t do that nearly as much anymore, but y’all can’t tell me that’s an original idea.

Agreed, I'm currently reading a great fanfiction that consists of several semi-connected mystery stories, one of which is almost exactly like a similar case from the annals of the great Sherlock Holmes, the author even admits to the similarity.
If we want to follow the logic of "only original ideas are good ideas" then little or nothing in at least the past several hundred years has been a good idea. As long as the story is coherent, and enjoyable in some fashion, it's good enough for me.
