Finding A New Favorite Fictional Character Is Like, Will You Be Temporary Or Will You Become A Permanent

Finding a new favorite fictional character is like, will you be temporary or will you become a permanent part of my personality for the next 10 years?

hot take:

crushing on/hyperfixating on fictional characters is a form of self-love. imagining yourself in scenarios, be romantic or platonic, with a fictional character is self-love. i've strugged since 2018 with depression and self-esteem issues, and the best way to remedy that is to be kinder to yourself, right? however, there's no one way to be kinder to yourself. but if your imagination can bring a character to life and tell you how hard youre working or amazing/beautiful you are, its basically you coming up with a conversation in which you're reassuring yourself what you want to hear. <3
