Have you ever read a novel, comic, manga, watched a movie, play, TV show etc., and you found yourself invested in a side character? Ever cared for and felt more intrigued by that side character than the mains? If so, what character was it and what are some.things that make you so interested in them?

    Astrid from Fringe. She’s just the nicest person in the show and cool and smart. It’s hard to pinpoint what exactly, she’s just an extremely likeable character. And watching it more than once, it’s actually sad how little she really got to do in the show. She barely gets a backstory.

    Also, I don’t know if it counts but in Walking Dead it felt like all of my favourites were side characters because all of my favourites died. I actually stopped watching after season 5 because both of my top favourite characters got killed within episodes of each other and I just didn’t really have a reason to keep watching. Everyone that was left was an asshole.
