Re: Are your favorite characters usually the characters you relate to most?

[personal profile] nyxelestia 2014-03-23 02:46 am (UTC)(link)
I never really have favorite characters in the first place. I tend to gravitate towards characters on the basis of sharing a certain personality or background trait with them or identifying with them in a specific capacity, but I'm usually not the biggest fan of the ones who are actually anything like me.

I think the closest I got to this was identifying with Darcy Lewis and liking her before she got popular in fandom. Mostly on the "level-headed, self-defending political science student with good analytical perception, and a strong interest in advanced sciences despite not really understanding it, with a strong attachment to a particular electronic device" front.

Then fandom turned her into an annoying hipster who follows Thor around because he likes her but doesn't do anything particularly helpful or productive, and yeah, I stopped liking her so much. I'm not saying there aren't good fanfics about her, but now I avoid most fanfics in which she features prominently for pretty much this reason.
