(Sorry, but send too early)

-you only expended energy on characters you already like. But you want to make an entire work just to secretly mock people who woobify characters, and as an experiment to see if they’ll do it here too?

I personally don’t really enjoy woobifying characters. If a character is written as sympathetic while being an antagonist, and is well-written in that regard, I’ll engage with that character the way they’re written. And if a villainous character isn’t written as sympathetic, I won’t imagine them as if they are. I make no excuses for the villainous characters I like if they’re unsympathetic. But at the same time, there’s nothing wrong with people who engage with characters differently than me and woobify characters. Fiction and reality aren’t 1:1, so the majority of people who woobify characters would never do the same for real horrible people. No matter what OP thinks.

So I don’t get the amount of energy you spend caring about people who woobify characters when you said you don’t expend unnecessary energy on things you don’t like.

Nayrt


Nope. It’s pretty clear to everyone reading that nobody is actually bothered by any of the drivel you’ve spouting.

You’re so full of shit lmao

Like do you know even realize how ludicrous you sound? How much of a Twitter edgelord you come off as?

Apparently not since you keep digging yourself deeper.

People are easily able to tell you don’t know what you’re talking about. But you think if you keep playing it off with “you’re just mad” it somehow makes you look better.

You’ll read whatever tone you want in people’s replies to make yourself feel better.

Hey there, I'm the anon who had the question of why I got invested in "badly written" characters posed to them. The answer is (depending on the story) either: because they WEREN'T badly written when I got invested. They were written like sympathetic antagonists being set up for a good redemption arc. The writers were capable of creating a great character I loved, then they chose to fuck up their story. Or: because it was a mediocre but fun story with tropey characters that I still liked well enough, and I choose my favorites even when others have done it better. Not everything enjoyable needs to be a masterpiece.

Sorry, my bad for assuming!

That’s understandable, and I agree with you.
