I don't often get attached to characters quickly. I would go so far to say that I don't get attached to characters. I love them, I love watching them, but at the end of the day they're are stuck in pages, screens, and our imaginations.
Lussaria was the first character I desperately wanted to be real. He's the first that I held so so close to me, that I rolled around in my head over and over again. Gods I wanted to laugh with him and interact with him so bad. And I know exactly why.
It's the Future Arc, the first time I'd head Lussaria called 'Big Sis' Luss. I did a double-take. It sounds silly and dumb, but the thought of just casually using titles not reserved for your gender was just foriegn??? to me. And he wasn't nb, Lussaria was fully confident in his gender and just also was the big sister.
That awakened something in me. Cringe yes, but true nonetheless. It's stupid how that one scene completely changed how I saw myself. For the first time, I felt allowed to add titles regardless of gender. I stopped correcting people when they used 'brother' instead of 'sister' or 'he' instead of 'she'. And I found that I liked that. I didn't understand my own gender (and I won't claim to understand it now, just better know it now.)
If not for Big Sis Luss, I wouldn't have ever dipped my toes into myself and found out more about myself. Lussaria, right at that moment, gained a love from me that I won't let go off.
