My vampy deserved Dick he was nicer!!

"How do the f/o tags work here if I want to filter them?"

Bramblestar looking tired asf all the time because he can't sleep because of his trauma. He constantly looks sluggy and Leafpool and Jay feather constantly have to give him poppy seeds to sleep... But when they start to stop working as well he is back to not sleeping that well.
He is snappy and stingy to everyone.
Squrrielflight teaches him how to handle his outbursts and panic attacks. He secretly has a tough of Firestar's fur he found after he died that he goes to when he is having a panic attack and even talks to the fur venting like he would when Firestar was alive.
Bramblestar cries a lot in his sleep. He dreams of seeing his father being killed in front of him and him killing Hawkfrost OVER AND OVER AND OVER AGAIN. He doesn't have these dreams every night but when he does it's safe to say Squirrelflight will be handling the patrols and training for the day. And when she's done she will cuddle her mate and let him know that she is there and that he is still alive. She let's him know he got through so many tough choices and decisions and she is proud of him. He is still upset but having his mate with him comforts him.
Oh and Bramblestar has a fear of black cats with blue eyes.... So you can imagine when he sees Crowfeather from far away at a gathering his heart jumps in his throat and it can cause him to have a panic attack. Thankfully Squirrelflight and Leafpool have noticed this so they do the grounding technique. Asking him what he smells, what he hears, what he tastes, what he feels, and what he sees. They help ground him so he have enough strength to continue to gathering...
Cause Bramblestar has canceled a lot of gatherings before because of his panic attacks or you know Squirrelflight would have to take his place as leader because he would not feel well enough to speak front of so many cats while he was having an episode.
Trauma Bramblestar is my favorite Bramblestar. I believe this is how he should have been written in my opinion I mean come ON ERIN'S LET THIS CATS EXPRESS THEIR TRAUMA. I swear if they did this it could help more young adults and kids understand trauma instead dog just looking at it in black and white. PTSD and anxiety is not black and white it's different for everyone.
It legit hurts me so much seeing so many people hate Bramblestar without considering his past. They only look at him like OH HE HURT SQUIRRELFLIGHT AND SHE'S BABY.
Yes but also no Squirrelflight has her flaws too she's done bad just like him and I honestly believe she's a plain ass character in the early books. I believe she should have some type of trauma too when she was an apprentice seeing Shrewpaw and Feathertail die aka two friends would mess anyone up.
This is why I say I'm angry at the Erin's rather than just saying oh I hate this or that character because it's not their fault they were written so plainly and rewritten like the characters before them.
Oh my gosh don't even get me started on Firestar not being written right this guy watched his friends and mentors die over and over and over again in front of his and you are telling me he is mentally stable?!? :T riiiiiiiight

I don’t think I’ve ever had to deal with death before.
And I think I was expecting indifference because I mostly thought about my dad (horrific abuser) but it didn’t occur to me my mom would die at 43 and my cousin would kill himself
Years ago
And I’d never know.
And I wanna say I’m sorry to them. I’m sorry I was a bad daughter I didn’t know what you were going through. I didn’t know your sister was murdered, I didn’t understand what it’s like having a man twice your age pressure you into family and marriage so young.
My mom was pretty and she liked dolphins and purple. She never knew how to connect with me and I could never tell if she was trying but our last convo she said she was sorry for not being there. I feel like the bad daughter for not trying harder.
And Jeffery. I miss you. I miss you a lot I think a lot about finding and reconnecting, you were the only one who treated me nicely. You defended me when my dad beat me and I defended you when you needed bail. But now you’re dead, you killed yourself, I missed my chance to tell you I listened to insane clown posee for you or show you the fun new video games. I missed the chance to tell you how much I love you and appreciated what you did for me
And Monica I’m sorry your obituary is like that. I know how hard you tried to get clean. And I know what our aunt did to your kids. You deserved better
I don’t know what to do. Do I even get to grieve? I’m estranged. I learn years after the fact by internet surfing and finding obituaries
But I know I miss Jeffery. I wanna talk to him again and watch him play games and tell me funny jokes. I kept thinking I should reach out to him. He was so supportive when I left and he protected me. But he’s gone. And I didn’t even know

November 20th-November 26th, 2019 Reader Favorites Archive
The archive for the Reader Favorites chat that occurred from November 20th, 2019 to November 26th, 2019. The chat focused on the following question:
What main character do you relate to the most? How relatable does a main character have to be for you to like them?
Capitania do Azar
You know, relatable is simultaneously a very strong and very week word to describe how I see main characters. Sometimes, the MCs I like the most are those I can't relate to in any way, when their actions are so out there and wild that I cannot for the life of me seeing myself doing (regardless of weather I understand their motivations or not). I tend to find secondary characters much more easier to relate to, since they're not so much under the spotlight and get to have personalities that are often less directly connected to the plot, and creators get to have more freedom. That said, on the top of my head, one of my favorite protagonists is Trigger, from Ghost Junk Sickness, https://www.ghostjunksickness.com/, who I cannot, for the life of me, relate to, but whose horrible decisions I find absolutely amusing.
Now, for side characters who I can definitely relate to, I'm gonna go with Aaron from XIIComic, https://xiicomic.com/magic-and-muses/, because that one was love at first sight, eheh(edited)
FeatherNotes
I agree with @Capitania do Azar-- For me, main characters are the ones who would be written with the themes, and the backstory that make them unique enough for a singular experience so i would often find it most difficult to 'fully relate' to them. That said, characters don't have to be very much relatable at all for me to like them , and that most MCs with flaws that are beyond me are who i mainly like bc of their potential complexity! Secondary characters are my go to's, and i relate to them much more quickly! With that said, i def have vibes with Sanna and Dizzy from Startrip http://www.startripcomic.com/cast
Phin (Heirs of the Veil)
I rarely find main characters "relatable", but if they are well-written enough I can like and root for them no matter if I think they are relatable to me personally enough. @Capitania do Azar and @FeatherNotes made really good point as to why this is the case. Anyways a character I still really relate to is Rafael from Superpose (https://superposecomic.com/). Painful gender feelings, people being dismissive of ones gender, the overall feeling of being stuck and not knowing what the future will bring really speaks to me, so reading Superpose I got especially invested. Another character would be Nikita from O Sarilho (http://sarilho.net/en/) and he's very interesting to me because there is a lot about him that feels deeply relatable and familiar but then so many things that are absolutely alienating. I think that makes him an especially alluring character to me.
Cronaj
I agree with the everyone else. I don't really need to relate to a main character to like them. In fact, I just realized on my search through the webcomics I read/enjoy that I don't relate to pretty much ANY of the characters. This might have to do partly with the fact that I read a lot of fantasy, sci-fi, and historical comics, so the issues the characters face are very different than the ones I personally face. That being said, there is one comic where I relate to one of the main characters so much, I actually cried. This is the character Taesoo from the webtoon The Lady and Her Butler. (https://www.lezhin.com/en/comic/ladyandbutler) He is a struggling artist with low self-confidence and the after-effects of a bad relationship with someone who didn't appreciate him. His scars from this situation have remained with him and made it difficult for him to love again. I know this sounds like something straight from a drama, but this legitimately happened to me. (On a side note, I relate to my own characters, but that's because I subconsciously created characters a lot like myself.)
Cap’n Lee (Flowerlark Studios)
Like others have said above me, I don’t really need to relate to a main character to like them. If they’re well written and receive good development, I’ll probably like them on some level. I do tend to gravitate more towards roguish and morally ambiguous characters, and my favourite is usually an outrageous villain. As for my own characters, I put a bit of myself in all of them, but probably none more so than Anor from Children of Shadow. I hadn’t meant to mirror so much of myself in him, but my characters tend to act and grow independently of me. He struggles with depression, PTSD, feelings of isolation, and has a similar queer experience / identity as me. He isn’t me, however, and differs in a lot of ways, too. But I can identify with him probably more than any other character I’ve written.(edited)
Batichi
I feel kinda narcissistic saying so, but the character I do relate to is my own protagonist, mainly because the point of the character was to have one that was more like me I guess. Low energy, unable to feel like they progress, never knowing if points of trauma are growing or hindering being a full person. I never intended a 'full insert' but a lot of their personal journey I feel gets pulled out of my own head since it's where I can pull from. I don't know if that counts or not xD I don't need a character to be relatable for me to be interested in them, but I do need to understand them. 'Defined' feels like too broad of an answer, but when I can be interested in both heart of gold protagonists and drug dealing warlords that's the best I can come up with.
spacerocketbunny
I may not need a character to be relatable to like them but it definitely does make me soft when I can. I think a character I can relate to would be Satinder from Shaderunners http://shaderunners.com/ I think she's a lot more outgoing than me and generally just more jovial and sweet but I relate to her struggle with her relationship with Ivo the most. Pining for someone who doesn't want to settle and just wants to move on bigger and better feels pretty real to me! Other than that I'd say Vic from Inhibit http://www.inhibitcomic.com/ while again I don't relate to his personality or much of his situation, I feel for his struggles SO MUCH. Stuck in that awkward, can't do anything right and just exists in the mediocrity of his situation just gets me all the time.
eli [a winged tale]
I think I relate with main characters who are competent in their own way but FLAWED, and are shown in the story to be facing a struggle. They may not have to make the right decisions or be the most clever, but their reasons are justified (via history, development, relationships). So ultimately it really comes down to the creator’s execution. I’ve been thinking about this question for a while and I think the best example is liking Kushana more than Nausicaa in Miyazaki’s graphic novel (you’ve watched the film, now go read the epic graphic novel!). She is presented as an antihero and a foil to Nausicaa and we see her struggle against how she was raised to the ideal way of dealing with the world presented as a possibility. Edith is also one where you see her being put together on the surface, but hiding deep insecurities inside. Yet she continues to grow, face her fears and maybe make the mistake of being on the wrong ship I jest, but working hard to solve her problems. I find static, good influence characters to be a little bit harder to relate to but if the story is good, I can invest in it.
GGY
Most of my characters stem from small pieces of my personality and experiences. Some of those personalties are exaggerated a bit to drive the plot and explain a few things going on with the characters. I don't have to relate to a character to like them but it is always interesting to see that side of a character that the other characters don't get to see as often or its not apparent. Not that the character is leading a double life or anything but that there are reasons why characters act the way they do and those reasons are either presented in a back story or from that character's perspective of the world. Anyways if I had to bottle it down to one character I think I relate a lot to would be one of my main characters Bridget Killigan of Over 8 Miles mainly because she runs by her own logic of how things go wether or not they are wrong. However this is only because of the result of circumstance, which I can relate to all too well XD(edited)
DanitheCarutor
I don't pay attention to relatability when reading a comic? Like I have no idea what characters I can relation to outside of my own since mine were sorta made to vent my experiences and issues. It's like gender and sexuality, as important as those details can be, I don't actually notice those things unless they're blatantly pointed out. Given that, not a whole lot of people can relate to me personally (I'm a weird person with weird opinions and views), so relatability in characters isn't totally possible and isn't important. Sometimes they can relate in life experiences, or a mood, but that's about it. Character(s) who are fleshed out, growing, and/or who are interesting is what matters most. So I guess I'm kinda parroting what other people have already said.
AntiBunny
Relatable? That's a bit of a tough one. I can care about a character without relating to them. In fact to answer last week's question, having characters I can care about is probably the most important thing to hook me into a webcomic. But relating to a character is different than caring about them. I would at one time say Riff and Torg from Sluggy Freelance, a couple of irresponsible guys getting into hijinks, but I've changed as a person over the years.
I suppose the most relatable character, might be Rhea from Slightly Damned. I say that because she's the one who has to be the responsible one now. She's the oldest of the 3 main characters, but still basically a kid herself. She has to protect and guide these two oddball teenagers, even though she's not even sure of her own place in the world.
I guess as you get older, people start looking to you as a protector, and as a guide, even though you still very much feel like a child wearing an adult suit. So Rhea is someone I can relate to in that regard. She's from http://sdamned.com/
Akreampuff
Sometimes I find I relate to elements of a character - Like when they comment or express an opinion on something - But having a character resonate with me isn't something that really happens often. I can't remember the last time it did. For me to like a character though, they just have to not be a shitty person. Flaws are fine - Flaws are great - But if they are just a horrible person or a flat bleh character then I lose interest very quickly.

One character I relate to immensely off the top of my head is Shy from Radio Silence http://www.radiosilencecomic.com/ There have been a lot of moments in that comic, especially related to social anxiety, where I have cringed super hard along with Shy because I knew exactly what it was like to feel what he was feeling. It actually makes the comic difficult for me on occasion just cause it brings flashbacks. In terms of the second part, that's a difficult question. I feel like it's super easy to relate to at least small portions of every main character, since people are complex and have a million different sides to them. So, for me at least, I can always find at least a little something I can relate to. But overall, that usually doesn't determine if I like them or not. I'm more concerned about whether I'm invested in their goals and want to see them succeed or suffer for their pursuit of those goals. To me that's what makes a character likeable. So in the end, it's not a question of how much, since I'll always relate in some way. It's just also not important.

my roommate spends like almost 2 hours in the shower and idk what he does in there because he thinks soap is fake & not needed. i guess hes just in there for the hot water
#>sluggy personal#like he uses soap but argues with me about different types of soaps#and calls me an idiot for believing in Big Soap or w/e because i insist on having separate soap/shampoo/conditioner#and because i check the ingredients#he thinks i get all my info from “tiktok influencers” despite that i tell him i talk to people who went to beauty school#he is so frustrating lol he always makes me feel really stupid so i have to vent about him and have everyone confirm i am not stupid
