In my own work, I don't have favorite characters, but I have characters that I relate to the most. And I relate the most to Simon from 'The Mortal Instruments,' and also Tessa from 'The Infernal Devices.' They're more sort of bookish and shy characters.
Be what you are. No one who really loves you will stop
I am a badass, and I recognize that you, too, are a badass.
