[ SLANG ][ IDENTITY ][ NOUN ]
A brief grace period after a main-character moment during which nobody is allowed to bring you back down to earth, treated as an unspoken social courtesy.
REAL-WORLD EXAMPLE
"Give her the main character buffer for at least an hour before you start roasting the outfit choice."
LORE & ORIGIN
Borrows 'buffer' from computing's temporary holding-zone concept, applied to a short window of protected main-character status.
