I'LL GIVE YOU A CHARACTER, M! Stiles? oh how about Lydia? Allison? KIRA?
How I feel about this character: Okay, so you know those characters where you’re watching the show and you’re like “okay yeah, they’re funny” but you don’t really pay attention to them, aside from relying on them to provide comic relief? And then that ONE EPISODE happens and all of a sudden they go from “comic relief” to “You are my favorite, you are the best character, I will love you forever and I will absorb all knowledge about you into centers of my brain that should be reserved for other, more important things, but fuck that shit”?
Yeah, that was me with Stiles. Stiles is my favorite.
All the people I ship romantically with this character: Derek Hale.
My non-romantic OTP for this character: Scott McCall, Allison Argent, Lydia Martin.
My unpopular opinion about this character: My opinions on Stiles: He’s an asshole, he’s bisexual, and he’s wanted to jump Derek since they first met. (He didn’t fall in love with him until after season 2, though.)
One thing I wish would happen / had happened with this character in canon: Good God, where do I even begin? I have fucking lists, okay? I’m going to go with two things, because reasons. ONE: I wish it had been canonically stated that Stiles was bisexual. Or pansexual. Or SOMETHING, because it was very strongly hinted for THREE SEASONS that that boy ain’t straight.TWO: That he had able to deal with, you know, being possessed by an evil, vengeful fox demon who made him nearly KILL ALL OF HIS CLOSEST FRIENDS AND FAMILY. That would have been nice.
How I feel about this character: Oh my God, I love Allison and I love her story arc, I love her story arc SO MUCH. I love how she wanted to be able to protect herself and take care of the people she loved. And I love how she became a leader within her family, how she defied their rules and created a new code around protecting those who couldn’t protect themselves. I love that she is so casually badass but also still very feminine; to this day one of my favorite scenes in the entire show is Allison in the pretty floral dress very competently getting out a sniper rifle. Because that is so her, that is her in a nutshell. And she was such a vital part of
All the people I ship romantically with this character: Lydia Martin, Kira Yukimura, Erica Reyes, Scott McCall, Isaac Lahey.
My non-romantic OTP for this character: Lydia Martin, Cora Hale, Derek Hale, Stiles Stilinski, Kira Yukimura.
My unpopular opinion about this character: Oh man, I have no idea if I have any unpopular opinions about her. I love stories where Allison has a real friendship with Derek and Stiles, and I think they would have made an AMAZING team. Stiles, because they’re both humans in this crazy supernatural world and are driven by the same need to protect/avenge those they care about. And Derek, because with everything that happened between their families, I think a friendship between them would have been a wonderful, wonderful arc.
One thing I wish would happen / had happened with this character in canon: THAT SHE HADN’T FUCKING DIED.
How I feel about this character: In all of the 8 billion characters introduced in season three, there were two I liked–Kira and her dad. I loved Kira’s adorable awkwardness and how excited she got talking about demons and death and her AVENGERS LEGGINGS, and her very sweet crush on Scott and “hey, I will totally spend a few hours collating 100 pages of research for this person I met yesterday NO BIG DEAL.”
Also I loved her relationship with her dad. Absolutely loved it.
All the people I ship romantically with this character: Scott McCall, Malia Tate, Allison Argent.
My non-romantic OTP for this character: Derek Hale, Allison Argent, Scott McCall.
My unpopular opinion about this character: I don’t think I have one. Kira is the most precious awkward cinnamon bun.
One thing I wish would happen / had happened with this character in canon: Oh man, I don’t know? I wish there was more world-building with the kitsunes in general and Kira’s family in particular.
