Apologies if this has already been asked and I just didn’t see it, but does Stress “wrap around” if you end up taking Trauma before you’ve marked off all the Stress to avoid an Effect?
e.g. Frost is sitting at 6 Stress and flubs a resist roll to avoid being shanked (1-3 result, 4 Stress to avoid). Two Stress is enough to push him over to his first Trauma and clear his Stress track, but does he have to soak the remaining two Stress on his “new” Stress track, or does ticking Trauma absorb all Stress from the current hit?

I don’t think so. You gain the Trauma level when you mark the final stress box, and your stress then “reset[s] to zero.” The remaining stress is interrupted by the Trauma gain and flutters away.
Yep, what Jason said. It doesn’t wrap around.
