they're both idiots that are constantly getting hurt

FIRST step to enjoying any media is getting attached to the character whose suicidal tendencies are the most obvious

thought it would be fun to redraw these kiddies in my style :D

Have you considered that maybe I like that character because they’re fucked up? What’s the fun in a perfect character? Why would you try to fix them? Let them be worse. Let them keep digging the hole they’re in. Let them break. Let them ruin their life and have to figure out how to put it back together.

It’s fiction, it’s entertaining to see characters suffer. It would be so boring if they only made rational choices.

the fandom experience is seeing someone make a joke that twists your blorbo's characterization for comedic purposes and not saying anything because you know its just a joke and you don't want to be a killjoy but also knowing this kind of thing definitely influences unironic depictions of the blorbo so you just stand there like that meme of the guy with his lips pursed and his veins popping

you didn't have to smile at me
