you can love a character and still admit when they're wrong. we love Shadow but we can acknowledge his flaws (he has none) and we can hold him accountable for his wrongdoings (he has never done anything wrong in his life) and call him out on his actions (which are always correct)

this is still funny as fuck actually

Panel 1
I am looking at a drawing of a character with someone behind me
me: Wow! These characters are so cool omg why isn't there more stuff about these guys?

Panel 2
the person behind me response: Those are your characters. You're the one that has to draw them.

Panel 3
a moment of silence as I process that statement.

Panel 4
I am on the ground crying and pissing surrounded by crude drawings of my own character.

you need to be sinistermaxxing. you need to say ominous shit. you need to stare at ppl until they turn away to ask if others can see you too and disappear before they turn back. you need to carry a black cat so it can cross the street at narratively appropriate times. you need to be sinistermaxxing
