it kind of peeves me when someone is like “it’s just a fictional character”
fictional characters are made from real human personalities, emotions, ideals, and thoughts
they may not be “real,” but they are reflections of us and our own nature. why else would we be so enraptured by fictional stories and characters? we see ourselves in them. why shouldn’t I feel pain, empathy, sadness, and happiness for a character that is basically a part of me and humans in general?
