Yes, here's my question... are there any characters in either the games/animé/mangá that you like so much, it's much akin to what you'd do if they were real?
Before my response, I have a few notes to make.
1-DON'T spam. By this, I mean doing what the idiots at the 'Attracted to pokemon?' thread are doing. Unless stated, those people here ARE serious about what they say.
2-DON'T say we're stupid, weird, or what-not. We know that already, we don't need you guys pushing it on us.
And finally... read this post.
So, my answer is... yes.
Yes, I love an imaginary character with the same strength as I would love a real person.
Who? Jasmine.
It's not just a 'like' or a 'fancy' like it is with some. It's deep and passionate. If I see sad pics of her, I feel sad... if I see happy pics of her, I feel happy... and if I see pics of her that portray her incorrectly, I get ******.
In fact, if I see her portrayed incorrectly anywhere, I get ******. Pretty much any ship I'd support involving her would require A LOT of explaining. Shoujo-ai ships are off-limits - I can't see them happening with her. If I see the words 'yuri' and 'Jasmine' in the same phrase, meaning her, it's not pretty.
And yet, unlike what you'd see in other situations, I don't self-insert myself and become a Stu. In fact, while in most fics I write involving a relationship between a character and Jasmine they can get to the 'friendship' stage, I don't need to have her loving him to think it's good. As long as she is happy, the character is happy - and if she wants a relationship... that's fine, but not fully required as it could be. I don't write or care about writing lemons with her. I respect her and her wishes according to my imagination... and that is 'truer', to me, than writing a thousand self-insert/Jasmine fics with happy smutty endings.
So... there you go - the heights of my care. What about you?
