She was cooler last season only because she didn't have problems to deal with. The dreams were still relatively tame. Even in the last handful of S1 episodes, she only BEGAN to lash out. We could make fanon Morgana smarter and stronger because, 1x12 aside, she was a side character and we could extrapolate more. Now that her problems are taking center stage, it turns out she doesn't know how to deal. I'm fine with her flailing around, honestly, 'cos it feels real to me that she's scared and looking for connections. She's been pampered and privileged all her life, and she doesn't know yet how to segue from that arena of power (which she is cutting ties with or something?) into another. It would be kind of hokey to have her be in control and fabulous all the time, because after all who is? No one! Sometimes people are petty and lonely and act defensively. And hey, as far as doing magic for stupid and personal reasons go, Merlin is absolutely guilty of this too. So! I say give her time.
