What Would We Do Without Our Fictional Characters?
I just said that to a fellow fan. And then I thought, what would we do without our fictional characters?
Which also made me think, what sort of comfort or coping mechanism do you get from your characters/pairings?
For myself I find writing fanfic (lately only in my head) helps me escape from the hellscape that is America these days. And reading fanfic about my favorite pairing is soothing in a way TV and other forms of reading aren't. It's like getting my emotions massaged.
How do other people feel?
