#I love Rampo so so much he means the world to me you don't understand

[owlyflufff]

I'm asking 2 and 17 :))

Thank you for the ask anon, especially 17 cause I've always wanted to talk about my special little guy <33!

2. What was the first fandom you were involved in? This is an interesting question because genuinely I don't know or remember TvT. Mainly cause I don't engage in fandoms in general ^^;

How do I word this, it might seem sad that I don’t engage in fandoms but for me personally, it’s pretty freeing. As someone with low engagement in them, I get to enjoy things on my own without the fear of reading mischaracterizations, fanart that isn’t favorable in my eyes or gaining warp perceptions of characters I love.

Don’t get me wrong, of course I love fanon content, fanfics and fanart most especially (and I love reading analysis of charas too <33), but there’s also this odd gratification of having just that, of enjoying this content on my own.

In the end, I love enjoying fan content but only at a great distance so I never truly touched a fandom/ engaged in it (the Haikyu fandom is most likely my first proper fandom but even I tapped out of it rlly quickly as I’ve seen a lot of art of my NOTPs, NSFW works or oversexualization of characters and general mischaracterization TvT, and this is me saying this despite me having already filtered numerous words and done everything I could to filter content <//3)

3. Who is currently your main comfort/emotional support character?

A little happy to be able to talk about him because I just LOVE this character with all my heart <33!

My main comfort/emotional support character who is also my favorite character of all time is:

Ranpo Edogawa from Bungou Stray Dogs my beloved <33

Words can't describe just how much I love his character and how well written he is despite being a side character. To save anyone from spoilers, I'll only talk about the surface level of his character <33

For me, Ranpo is a comfort character and my favorite because he's such a fun character to watch and see his perspective overall. He's generally always happy and excited over things which makes his character so endearing and though he can be rash with his words, it's essentially due to his pride and intelligence and there are instances where it's honestly pretty funny like:

I genuinely don't know how to word my words for how much I love Rampo because he just makes me really happy whenever he's on screen or whenever I get to talk about him TvT!!!

He's a happy and silly character but behind it are his insecurities.

He takes a lot of pride in who he is and his ability but even he has his doubts and understands that there will come times where his intelligence can be curbed in the face of an enemy such as a piece of dialogue he said when the Agency went up against a certain rat (if some people know who I'm hinting at xD)

He may be childish and immature at times but he is no fool, when he knows that a situation is serious, he acts on it immediately and without hesitation.

Here is a character who once believed the world hated him, but then found people who loved, supported and cared for him in every way. In doing so, he would go to all ends as a means of saving them with or without an ability.

For all of Rampo's pride, it mellowed down and he grew so much from the person he was at the start of the series because of that care he has for the Agency.

Rampo' character growth, though subtle, will never fail to make me all emotional and give comfort.

To be loved is to be changed afterall and seeing it in Rampo makes me happier than anything else (along with Bokuaka ofc <3).
