Seen the ask, R8 my boy V :3
(p.s. if you liked the movie READ. THE COMIC. I BEG. ITS JUST 280 PAGES. AVAILABLE ON INTERNET ARCHIVE)
How I feel about this character
Extremely positively. This man greatly influenced me to be who I was, to seek better, to do and be better. I was on a very dark, dark path. I owe much of my slow shift from silent and broken to a little less silent and a little less broken to V for Vendetta and its' motifs.
I used to be a person with no boundaries and no interests who would do whatever anyone wanted if only they would pay me attention or serve me their approximation of love. I could not bare to live in a world where I was disliked or left alone with my thoughts because they would eat me alive - from very early childhood onwards. V for Vendetta really gave me this idea that wormed into my brain, "maybe you should set boundaries, maybe you should stand up for yourself, maybe you should write again".
I saw it when I was... 12-13?
I still remember making V outfits on Roblox. I remember setting V profile pictures and throwing V quotes around and staying up all night reading and reblogging nothing but V for Vendetta.
All the people I ship romantically with this character
My non-romantic OTP for this character
My unpopular opinion about this character
I wish they had leaned a little farther into making him appear more terrifying and genuinely driven beyond.
However, his eerie composure despite it all appears to be a sentiment of its' own and it should be respected.
I don't really ship V with anyone. I don't think he's not attractive, quite the opposite - but he doesn't strike me as someone interested in the intimate skin-to-skin things. I think he's ace but not aro, and his idea of romance is heavily warped.
One thing I wish would happen / had happened with this character in canon.
What if V's supporters positioned themselves between the rails and killed Creedy's men before they could fire on V?
I'm sure almost anyone who has watched the movie will tell you they have thought at least once about V living.
I wish Creedy and V would have a straight up debate. That would be so interesting to read and tear into. Does that happen in the comic?
also someone should give V the sweetest softest kindest most pleasant loving caring smooching & gentle bath ever. with milk and pretty bath bombs and pleasing scents and nice candles and a million thousand kissies and the lightest hand.
