I've had many many fictional crushes over the course of my life. But there are a few that have stuck with me. Comfort characters, if you will. :3 Characters I enjoy and crush on, but also get a great deal of joy out of seeing.
So I thought it'd be fun to lay out some of them for complete internet strangers to see. Whether to agree with my tastes or question my upbringing, that's up to you XD
Gonna say now, this is a tag FREE FOR ALL! I don't know who to tag specifically, but I want ALL my mutuals to share your f/os too.
I wanna see everyone share their own fictional crushes/comfort characters.
hate when you find a character whose so infuriatingly Your Type that its embarrassing like yeahg no one is gonna be surprised when i announce this is my new Guy Of The Month
there's something genuinely harrowing about gorgug and kristen on the deck of the ship, pelted by rain, swarmed by dragons, these two teenagers looking at each other with wide eyes trying to bury the fear down deep, and
do you remember when we died?
they were freshmen, they were children, they were two years younger but it feels like a hundred hundred years ago
it feels like yesterday, because deep down they're still that boy hiding his too large frame behind a metal flower and a girl stuffing her too large personality into the pages of her bible
do you remember when we died?
the ship rocks violently with cannon fire, hands of fear and divinity and loss creeping from the clouds
do you remember the day you lost your faith?
do you remember a forest so sharp it cut you clean through?
It's honestly frustrating that I've seen non-Russian queer people almost bragging about how they would be illegal in Russia, labeled an extremist or terrorist. Russian queers are in danger, their government has made it clear where it stands, and it's made this effort for the better part of a decade (even longer, perhaps). This will kill people, don't mistake this for a quirky little proclamation from a government, akin to somebody saying the sky is pink. Russian queer people were already expressing their fear, and the least we can do now is express our love for them, and advocate with them.
Russian queer people, I love you. I love you all so much. I am so sorry, I cannot begin to express the grief that I feel, and I hope that you are safe. Words cannot encapsulate how I feel as a non-Russian, and I cannot hope to comprehend how it feels to actually be in this situation.
homestuck was so perfect for autistic teenagers bc it took characters being sorted into categories and having Attributes to its absolute extreme. forget four hogwarts houses, every character has their associated colour their zodiac sign their associated animal their dream planet their god tier class and aspect their typing quirk their pesterchum handle their weapon their planet of x and y, as well as each of them having a handful of other very quantifiable Personality Traits and Interests (e.g. this one is a clown this one is angry this one likes fashion this one is just rufio from hook for some reason) and THEN they all also have their respective ancestors and dancestors(?)(plucked that word from my memory) who have all of those things as WELL
and god not to mention the fucking quadrant system
as a 13-15 year old autistic kid i didnt even need homestuck to have a plot i just happily made a big big spreadsheet of character attributes in my brain
Share 9 of your fictional crushes and let everyone guess your type!
So when I indulged in fictional crushes as a youngling, as you do, I found many of my crushes were in some way or form animated, 2d and 3d alike. So I decided to challenge myself with this trend in live action characters. After all, having a crush on a fictional character in live action would depend heavily if you are also attracted to that actor. I mean, it'd be pretty hard to crush on a fictional character (unless you really adored the character) if you weren't into the actor at least a little bit. Same goes in reverse obviously, you can adore an actor's voice or a character they betray but be completely uninterested in their design when taken from a different media.
Alright, enough rambling, here is my list of fictional crushes!
Top Row: Count Dracula from Renfield (2023); Ardeth Bay from The Mummy (1999); Sabretooth from X-Men Origins: Wolverine (2009)
Middle Row: Gomez Addams from the Addams Family (1991); Abraham Van Helsing from Horror of Dracula (1958); Bucky Barnes from Captain America: The Winter Soldier (2014)
Bottom Row: Quicksilver from X-Men: Days of Future Past (2014); Magneto from X-Men: Days of Future Past (2014); Loki from Thor: The Dark World (2013)
Imagine coming home after a long day and they just hug you. They hug you in a way that melts all the tension from your muscles, and makes the stresses of the day fade into some distant memory. It’s one of those hugs you feel like you could fall asleep in, but you don’t want to because you want to savor every ounce of it even though you know you’ll get a million more of them
Ya know what shout out to butches who wrestle with our butchness because we don’t fit the mold in some way. Butches who aren’t physically strong or naturally caretaking because of physical disability, who need to be cared for, who can’t hold open the door for a femme. Butches with long hair, butches with big hair, butches who express their culture via their hair. Butches who’s masculinity is shaped by their culture, who’s masculinity doesn’t fit the white eurocentric mold. Fat butches, butches with curves viewed as feminine, butches who don’t have skinny, boyish builds. Butches who don’t want to be sexualized, butches on the ace spectrum. Butches who don’t have traditionally masculine interests or mannerisms or whatever. Effeminate butches. Butches who take inspo from gay men. Butches who like the occasional dress or skirt. TRANSFEM BUTCHES!!!!! And any other butches who don’t fit a certain mold!! All butches are good butches and we are all valid.
