People are incredible and beautiful and I am always really sad when other people don't get that part of what makes us so fascinating are the nasty little faults and shortcomings. It makes us real. I don't love so many of my characters despite them being an asshole. I love them because of it.
Exactly. Like, the reason that I fell in love with Angel is because, in Home, he did the wrong thing for the right reason. He was willing to screw his friends over to try to save his son. He was willing to do anything to save his son and that was the one offer that he couldn't refuse. He's still the same asshole that I didn't like before, only now I understand him and love him because of that assholiness.
