My Poor Characters
Veronica8 I guess lol. My novels are just a series of decisions. To kill or not. To save or not. To take a risk or not. Only factor that drives the story is the characters personality, and influential factors.
If we have a prideful, arrogant, stubborn mc what will it take to make him say he is wrong. How would that experience affect him/her.
It's like living a alternate life
Primate Haha. True that. I don't generally get involved but when I do, I can literally smile, blush, laugh and cry while reading and writing, both.
I empathize deeply with my characters, to the point where something bad happening to one of them can mess me up for a while. I think it's a necessary part of being a writer to be able to feel what your characters are feeling.
dang. yall are good people.
I have fun when i write these scenes. :grimacing:
No, but I have to admit thwt I wasn't this emotional until some stuff happened in life. Besides, I generally blame this ridiculously increased emotional attachment on my medication. Back then, I would be amused with anyone telling me that he/she cried while watching a movie. It was beyond me at that point to understand the emotional attachment to the fiction.
I've grown attached to my characters, which makes me feel bad when drama happens to them. Though in a way, empathizing with them makes me feel the moment and pass on how the characters feel into words.
You're not the only one. I'm evil enough to let my MC die as a single man in his first life. 
I mean, the MC in my current novel died a virgin when he was beheaded in a fiery car explosion.
But that wasnt horrifying. It was hilarious.

Haha, now I don't know whether to take comfort in that or feel bad about your MC.
You a bad man, Clowniac! 
Hm. I like to start at my characters childhoods so there is always the chance they die before they achieve anything in life. Hehe

I did joke once about killing off my MC and turning him into a Panda. I still think I should do that as an April Fools sidestory chapter.
kazesenken I remember a translator did something similar for a BL manga. They translated the entire conversations using love songs and BL clichés for an April's fools. I was reading and wondering what the hell was going on until they had a panel that basically said we got you.
No kidding 
in my story I wrote that my FL was sexually molested when she was a child...by her adoptive father. I felt like crying and so disgusted writing the scene 
God knows how badly I wanted to end it.
enthu_reader Those are hard to write. Breaks my heart.
