🍓 {21/08/24} ✦ Do you know what a “Comfort Character” is? 🧚♀️ 🎐 (initiative) ✦ 🇪🇸 │ 🇺🇸
✦ A reflection and initiative on the fictions that are medicine for the heart - 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 5 - 6 - Collage & Edition in FotoJet, photos by @Tesmoforia ✦
🇪🇸 ~ La semana va lenta para mi entre dormir y medicamentos, me lo estoy tomando con calma porque los ciclos de malestar, tratamiento y recuperación son lo que son, algo que no puedes apurar.
Ahora en medio de estas mini vacaciones no planificadas he podido ponerme al día con varios fanfic que sigo en Ao3, todos del Hualian porque es mi main comfort-ship y Xie Lian es mi comfort-character actualmente.
🇺🇸 ~ The week is going slow for me between sleep and meds, I'm taking it easy because the cycles of discomfort, treatment and recovery are what they are, something you can't rush.
Now in the midst of this unplanned mini-vacation I've been able to catch up on several fanfics I follow on Ao3, all from Hualian because that my main comfort-ship and Xie Lian is my comfort-character currently.
Creo hasta ahora en Hive no he visto esos tópicos y éste es muy buen momento para abordarlo, es mas, quisiera proponer una dinámica: "¿Quién es tu comfort character en este momento?".
I don't think I have seen these topics so far in Hive and this is a very good time to address it, moreover, I would like to propose a dynamic: "Who is your comfort character at this moment?
Vamos explorar algunas definiciones para que todos estemos en sintonía, sobre todo si estos términos son nuevos para ti.
Let's explore some definitions so that we are all on the same page, especially if these terms are new to you.
✦ For many years my favorite character has been Kurama (Shuiichi Minamino, Youko Kurama) from Yuu Yuu Hakusho, but my divine husbando has not been my comfort character for a long time, he is my favorite character but not the one that comforts me just by looking at him - 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 5 - 6 ✦
Un "comfort-character" es un personaje que por su historia, personalidad, cualidades o características, te inspira sentimientos de calma, felicidad y tranquilidad, o como la palabra lo dice, te reconforta, sobre todo en momentos difíciles o cuando atraviesas situaciones estresantes en tu vida.
A "comfort-character” is a character whose history, personality, qualities or characteristics inspire you feelings of calm, happiness and tranquility, or as the word says, comfort you, especially in difficult moments or when you are going through stressful situations in your life.
Vendría a ser, dependiendo de cada quien un recurso de apoyo durante momentos difíciles, con la curiosidad que el "comfort-character" no es lo mismo que "tu personaje favorito" o tu "kinnie-character".
It could be, depending on the individual, a resource of support during difficult times, with the curiosity that the “comfort-character” is not the same as “your favorite character” or your “kinnie-character”.
✦ Sandy, or “The Sandman” (his real name is Sanderson Mansnoozie) from William Joyce's “Rise of the Guardian” novels was formally my first comfort-character, I was in that fandom for some years and Sandy became a very present character every day, he is simply intriguing, a survivor of the golden age, of a universe and worlds that no longer exist, he always smiles, he doesn't talk although he can - 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 5 - 6 ✦
Tu "comfort-character" también puede variar con el paso del tiempo, a diferencia de tu personaje favorito que puede ser el mismo de toda la vida, o tu "kinnie-character" que puede variar igualmente según tu evolución como persona y etapas-experiencias de vida.
Your "comfort-character" may also vary with the passing of time, unlike your favorite character that may be the same as it has been your whole life, or your ’kinnie-character” that may also vary according to your evolution as a person and life stages-experiences.
Otra curiosidad es que como todo aquello que puede representar un espacio de descanso de las situaciones difíciles (videojuegos, series, pasatiempos llevamos al extremo), en exceso la fijación por un tema puede ser perjudicial (la desconexión de la realidad es un tema ya muy desarrollado).
Another curiosity is that like anything that can represent a space of rest from difficult situations (video games, series, hobbies we take to the extreme), in excess fixation on a subject can be harmful (disconnection from reality is a theme already well developed).
Nunca esta de más decirlo, todo en su justa medida para que sea saludable, y eso incluye el tópico del "comfort-character", que no debe ser tomado como excusa para descuidar los deberes, abandonar las responsabilidades, o ser irresponsable con tu vida (por ejemplo, con el tema de las finanzas al invertir en mucha mercha sin llevar un control).
It never hurts to say it, everything in its right measure to be healthy, and that includes the topic of “comfort-character”, which should not be taken as an excuse to neglect duties, abandon responsibilities, or be irresponsible with your life (for example, with the topic of finances by investing in a lot of merchandise without keeping track of it).
✦ His Royal Highness, The Crown Prince of Xian Le, the Martial God Crowned in Flowers, and husband of the most powerful calamity level devastation, Hua Cheng - 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 5 - 6 ✦
Me pongo a mi misma de ejemplo: Actualmente mi "comfort-character" es Xie Lian de las novelas de "La Bendición del Oficial Celestial" de MXTX.
I give myself as an example: Currently my “comfort-character" is Xie Lian from MXTX's "Heaven Official's Blessing” novels.
Dianxia (uno de sus tantos títulos canon) es un personaje extraordinariamente completo. Resiliente, inteligente, sabio, humilde, empático, poderoso, un universo en si mismo pues es un personaje que ha vivido casi 1.000 años bien explicados y detallados en las novelas: "Un dios con el poder de acabar con el mundo entero, pero tan gentil como una flor."
Dianxia (one of his many canon titles) is an extraordinarily complete character. Resilient, intelligent, wise, humble, empathetic, powerful, a universe in itself as he is a character who has lived almost 1,000 years well explained and detailed in the novels: “A god with the power to end the whole world, but as gentle as a flower."
Se convirtió en mi personaje de comfort sin que me diera cuenta hace aproximadamente 2 años y algo más, cuando empece a buscar fanfics sobre él encontrándome con cientos de Au´s y divergencias de canon fascinantes (este fandom es una maravilla), y un día me di cuenta que con naturalidad y sin escogerlo conscientemente, me ponía a leer sobre el, buscar artes o dibujarlo cuando me sentía triste o cuando me enfermaba... y de hecho, me ayudo, y me sigue ayudando muchísimo anímica y emocionalmente.
He became my comfort character without me realizing it about 2 years ago, when I started to look for fanfics about him and found hundreds of Au's and fascinating canon divergences (this fandom is a marvel), and one day I realized that naturally and without consciously choosing him, I started to read about him, look for art or draw him when I felt sad or when I was sick... and in fact, it helped me, and it still helps me a lot, emotionally and psychologically.
Si eres gamer, otaku o geek, ya sabes que para nosotros la ficción no es mera ficción. Existen obras, guiones y personajes que nos marcan, que en nosotros hay un antes y un después de conocerlos e incluso que una historia puede detonar en cada uno de nosotros profundos procesos de introspección y re consideración de muchas partes de nosotros que creíamos permanentes e inamovibles.
If you are a gamer, otaku or geek, you already know that for us fiction is not mere fiction. There are works, scripts and characters that mark us, that in us there is a before and an after meeting them and even that a story can detonate in each of us deep processes of introspection and re consideration of many parts of us that we believed permanent and immovable.
¡Asi que esa es mi propuesta de iniciativa para hoy!, todos estan invitados a unirse y participar siempre y cuando el tema resuene contigo.
"¿Quien es tu comfort-character actualmente?"
"¿Por qué es tu comfort-character?"
"Cuéntanos una anécdota especial que tenga que ver con tu comfort-character"
Opcional, invita a 3 o más personas, ¡las que tu quieras!, yo invito a: @irenenavarroart, @bertrayo, @suezoe, @pigritia, @vanuzza 🌹 💕
Incluye todas las imágenes que quieras, te invito a hacer mini galerías como pequeño tributo a tu personaje, tambien para que otros podamos verlos.
Tambien puedes dibujar o hacer algún collage o creación basado en ese personaje o uno de sus elementos característicos.
Yo quería hacer una lámpara de papel al momento de compartir esta publicación pero como mencione antes, estoy de reposo hasta nuevo aviso así que he hecho lo que puedo con lo que tengo.
Mucho cariño para todos, ¡y ojalá poder conocer a sus personajes de confort y cómo llegaron hasta ellos! 🫂 🧙♀️ ✨
So that's my proposed initiative for today, everyone is invited to join in and participate as long as the topic resonates with you.
"Who is your current comfort-character?"
"Why is your comfort-character?"
"Tell us a special anecdote that has to do with your comfort-character"
Optional, invite 3 or more people, as many as you want, I'm inviting: @irenenavarroart, @bertrayo, @suezoe, @pigritia, @vanuzza 🌹 💕
Include as many images as you want, I invite you to make mini-galleries as a small tribute to your character, also so that others can see them.
You can also draw or make a collage or creation based on that character or one of its characteristic elements.
I wanted to make a paper lamp at the time of sharing this post but as I mentioned before, I'm on hiatus until further notice so I've done what I can with what I have.
Much love to all, and hopefully I get to meet your comfort characters and how you got to them! 🫂 🧙♀️ ✨

Esto es un concepto interesante. Aunque creo que igual que como no tengo colores favoritos, no puedo pensar en algún personaje que me guste de eso modo. Aparte que escribo y sé cómo eliminar a mis personajes después de hacerlos interesantes y han cumplido sus arcos. 😂
Eso es totalmente valido! No sabía que no tenías un color favorito :o ¿pero sí tienes asi un tono o paleta que te guste o frecuentes? 🎨
A ver, no creo que no. Todos los tonos son bienvenidos. Si no los conozco, entonces, aprendo más sobre tonalidades.
My current comfort-character would be HIKARI from Tadaima, Okaeri. (I just wrote about it). He's a breath of fresh air... He's just so lovable and adorable that simply looking at him makes me calm. He warms my heart. <3
PS: I love Kurama, too! Been a fan since my elementary years. haha
Hikari is too adorable! I haven't finished the anime yet but I started watching it a few months ago, the plot is soft and welcome, I'm a fan of the omegaverse so any setting catches my attention ouo)b And how great that you also know Kurama! You have good taste in characters 🙌 ✨
Ohh... I hope you enjoy the rest of the episodes! :)
What's your fave omegaverse manga/manhwa?
Kurama is just so cool... especially his fox form. :)
Tough question! My favorite omegaverse gives away my fujoshi oldschool age xD my fav is "Sex Pistols" and I've read some more current ones but I don't know, I'm not a big fan of violence or abusive relationships :c I cried with “Love is an Illusion” and was cured with “Megumi to Tsugumi” although I haven't finished it either ovo;;
Ohhh~~~ Sex Pistols is a classic. :) If I remember, this is also a supernatural since they transform into some animals, right?
Love is an Illusion is good... and I love Byul.. He's so cute! <3
And... waaaa... Megumi to Tsugumi is fluffy~~~~
LIAI is completed... and the side stories are also good... but Megumi to Tsugumi is still ongoing. I forgot where I stopped last time. xD
Have you read "Mother Spirit"? It's not violent and the story is interesting. :)
Yes, in Sex Pistols the hybrids are called “madaras” and the babies are born in animal form and gradually take on human characteristics (they are adorable) ~
I don't know “Mother Spirit” OAO I will look for it!...
...
AZUMAKINA THERE'S A SEXY MORENO GUY 030 ✨ ✨ ✨
I already forgot the details since it's been ages ago. haha I should re-read...
hahahah... YAASS!!!! <3 Mother Spirit is one of my fave BL (it's not omegaverse, though)... but the setting is so interesting and unique. ^^ Enjoy!
Yahhh Kurama is really one of husbandos... I really adored him way back when I was still watching Yu Yu Hakusho, but he's not really my comfort character. I have a lot of kinnie-characters in every anime series I've watched, but there's only one character that could give me comfort throughout these past seven years...and he's none other than Kakashi Hatake.
He was really the reason why I decided to watch Naruto (and later became addicted to it). His character was really my dream man! Though I know that he's not into romance (except for those he read on Icha Icha), I really like how considerate he is in handling women. I know he's also got flaws as a character, and I didn't overlook them; instead, I accepted them. He wasn't really like my first anime husbandos, whom I later didn't like when I discovered their character flaws...
He's a different case because I can't hate him. I even mourned his fake death in Pain's arc to the point that my parents and siblings got alarmed by my gloomy state. Thankfully, he was revived because I knew I couldn't find another character that I liked this much. His picture is enough to make me smile (and even blush)... So that's it, people... I just can't help rambling about how his character has been a source of comfort to me... (internal screaming intensifying)
I can't describe in words how cool it is to see someone talking with such enthusiasm about a character they really love! Kakashi is one of those characters that marked more than one generation and it is a topic that does not enter into discussion because the reality speaks for itself, in the fandom of my country you will see fans of all ages 💘 I hope that this genuine affection for him will be with you for many years to come, he is a great example of a comfort-character 🥰
Kyahhhh he indeed is! He really is a green flag for me, and yeah—I hope my affection for him will transcend through time hehehehe... So let's continue adoring our comfort characters!! (=ˊᵕˋ=)ノ♡
Eeeeeepaaaaa... Yo pensaba que no tenía algo como un "Comfort Character", pero ahora que leo tu post, me doy cuenta de que a lo largo de los años, siempre tuve un personaje que cumplía con esas características 😳 Siempre ando "fuera de tendencia", así que es curioso cuando te das cuenta de cosas como estas jaja ¡Muchas gracias por abrirme los ojos! Iré elaborando mi post sobre ello, porque casualmente en estos momentos tengo un personaje que me está ayudando a sobrellevar mi existencia 👀 ¡Espero que te mejores pronto! 🤗💚
Gracias a ti por leerme Zoe! Tu blog es siempre interesante y pensé que quizá esta idea te gustaría 💚 por cierto que bella tu máquina de coser con todos esos sticker ;3; estare atenta a lo que escribas sobre tu comfort character! Y is ok, yo en muchas cosas tambien estoy fuera de tendencia o no muy al día xD
¡Encantada querida! Ando todo el día súper metida en cosas y se me hace complicado revisar las publicaciones, pero cuando me etiquetan me enganchan más rápido jaja Me alegra mucho de que mi blog sea de tu agrado, trato de que me sea entretenido 😊 Hay tanto de lo que quiero escribir... pero a veces siento que no puedo con todo jaja ¡Oh, gracias! Por fin me digné a dedicarle tiempo a usar mi máquina, es que estuve como 3 años apenas pudiendo usarla un par de veces cuando iba a casa de visita, pero ahora que la tengo conmigo, ha llegado su momento de brillar 😁 ¡Por supuesto! Ya me enfoqué y espero el martes o miércoles de la semana que viene, subir ese post, porque de verdad que el tema me me pareció súper interesante 😌💚
