Fictional Characters I Relate To

Two words: Awkward. Nerds. Even if it's gradually changing, that was my personality for a long time, so those are the characters in anything that I relate to. The biggest ones are probably Dipper Pines (from Gravity Falls) and Doctor Doom (He's a different type of awkward). So, let's go over why.

Dipper

If you have seen the show, you probably think I'd go with Mabel (she wears cat t-shirts), but I think Dipper is more fitting. For those of you who haven't seen the show, Dipper is pretty much made to be relatable to nerds. He's a twelve year old with a crush on a fifteen year old, a very smart kid everyone ignores because he always sounds crazy/stupid, and he constantly tries to fit in with a group of cool kids. Like I said, he's written to be relatable, and his awkwardness around girls specifically is almost a perfect match.

Dr. Doom

No, I don't want to conquer the world, and no I don't mean him in any of the awful movies. In the comics (the ultimate nerd phrase amirite?), Doom is a super genius who has time and dimension travelled to literally every single possible timeline with human life. What he saw? There is no version of earth that is happy unless he is the absolute ruler. That said, he really doesn't have to be such a jerk about it. Anyone who's ever worked with me on anything ever will likely support that I don't trust anyone else to do any work, but to be fair I don't kill anyone who doesn't agree with me, and I can't time travel. He's still the most relatable character in any comic universe I've come across, because frankly in such a position I'd likely act the same way.
