Let’s talk about what makes people real.
That’s what my favorite characters are to me. Real. If you’re reading this, I suspect that’s what they are to you, too.
Characters I love often feel as real to me as people I know in the physical world. Whether from books, movies, comics, or television shows, the characters I love mean something to me. They give me hope. They teach me lessons that become ingrained into the fabric that makes me who I am.
If you get me spun up, I can talk about my favorite characters in the same way I talk about best friends.
So, yes. The characters I love are real to me, and there isn’t anything you can do or say to convince me otherwise.
