It's interesting to me that there's a very clear delineation in my mind between characters id consider to be f/os (romantic or platonic) and characters that i just want to keep inside my heart forever. They're also like, not me either, even if i relate deeply to them - i love them on a very specific level where i wish i could keep them safe and know i never could so instead i preserve them & their memory in my heart forever, like a locket. Characters like this for me are like. Laura palmer, and owen/isabel from i saw the tv glow. I think part of that delineation must be death especially if said death is of narrative importance - i can't deny they're dead (in some form) because that'd be rejecting what they went through and it's important that was acknowledged. So i just tuck them safe into my heart forever and ever. As long as i'll live i won't forget you! For the rest of my life, you'll be alive inside me!
#I literally stop dead and cry about owen/isabel every so often lol that movie fucked me up bad. i'm not sure i could ever watch it again#I genuinely was at the club with gf last week and i sobbed a little bit about it all#And laura.... Laura is a real person as far as i'm concerned. That's how she feels#ACTUALLY Notable exception to this is Beato because like death and nonexistence are important parts of her narrative#Her whole story is about wanting someone to see and understand it perfectly#But she leaves a space for herself to continue to exist which is why shes different in my mind
