The Quiet One doesn't have to be because she is badass can simply be she doesn't talk much by nature

The characters seems to response with You Can Talk? since The Quiet One never muttered a word so the others just concludes that The Quiet One is a mute. But she isn't. Close to Elective Mute but not. I know it's too complex to answer in one trope only.
Here's a funny thing. You know someone who never talks but could, they just don't do it. I thought it was Elective Mute but this is something different because sometimes it got mixed up with Cannot Talk to Women. So it's half because they chose to be silent and half because they're nervous, yet the characters just assumed she's mute until she finally talks.
