For a schemer, Annabel's schemes haven't been that successful.
After reading this web series a few times, I was starting to see a pattern. Things aren't really going in Annabel's favor and her favor wasn't any better before her death either. I'll start out with what we knew about her in her life. She was going through her third social season which was coming to a disappointing end simply because it was ending. Her breakdown tell us that much. She longed for a much freedom as she could get for as long as possible. Until she met Lenore but more specifically Leo, who I would assume plans to get her out of the situation which ultimately leads to both their deaths.
And now, their both in the limbo between the land of the Living and the Dead. And now the new plan…is the old plan. To get out with Lenore. Now that I think about it, Lenore really is this woman's world after all of this. Lenore is probably supposed to feel like her source of hope and without her there the act that she constantly puts up will be for nothing. I mean after basically killing her old self, shedding her role in society (the only thing Annabel has to feel safe until Lenore) as a woman to free Annabel. She exceeds her expectations exponentially. Lenore is what she could never be and it seems like that's why she loves her a lot.
But I digress, This plan of hers to be on opposing sides and pretend to be enemies while also setting her own group against each other never has seemed to go very well to going horribly bad. But I'll start with the opposing sides. The morning after the Maze put their plan in effect of the being enemies. When Lenore points out that no one in her trio manifested but still passed, Annabel makes a remark about her not following the assignment. This was supposed to further establish the gap between Annabel's team and Lenore's but to Anna's (and even Prospero's) surprise, Ada speaks up and admits that she's impressed by Lenore's group.

This paired with that "ally ship" Ada tried to build with Lenore wasn't the best for Anna's plan either. Morella certainly wasn't making it easier for her either but Montressor took care of both of those.
Her next plan to have the Spectreless students lose didn't go as planned was directly because of Lenore which causes her scheme to have Duke eliminated quietly backfire because of Lenore's wish. This drives a hug wedge into their relationship. Moreover, if Duke manifests and gets out of the wall, it would get much worse for her scheme if they expose them in some way. This is where I saw a pattern. And lastly, the big plan to escape the Academy.
Let me start by saying this: Annabel doesn't know what the fuck she's getting herself into. Lenore has more valuable information than Annabel Lee has. And it's all because of the Raven. Remember when Lenore asked Anna what her plan was after her escape and she was like "I don't know, love. We'll figure it out." No the fuck you won't, sit down. Lenore knows they wouldn't be able to last 10 minutes out there because they would be devoured. Which she hasn't said to her but still calls her out on how foolish that mindset is for her.

I just wanted to point out that all the effort that Anna's putting into this isn't going that well at all but if anyone has a conclusion that they can put together eloquently, I'd be glad to read it because I'm tired.
(Also, I'm not saying that she has to win all the time but what I am saying is she needs a different approach to planning. It has to involve Lenore but this divorce arc is going to make it a lot harder.)
