You should be allowed to leave work if you need to go home and think about the character
theyve made life much too hard for cute girls who are scared and tired
i love when characters lie to themselves in the complete privacy of their own minds
I like reading DE fanfic but imo the characterization of Harry and Kim is like several steps away from canon in the majority of fics. There is a dynamic that writers tend to favor that is Harry as expressive, clingy, does dumb and impulsive things for the sake of it and Kim the stoic, patient, empathetic minimalist.
And in canon Harry pretty explicitly struggles to form regular facial expressions while Kim has to put substantial effort into controlling his. Harry can choose to go off without Kim or attempt to drive him away while Kim will very rarely leave him alone. Kim is also almost always the one to initiate physical contact between them. Harry typically has some sort of internal reasoning behind his actions, even if they seem nonsensical to an onlooker, but Kim will often do things or agree to plans just because it amuses him.
The biggest thing that bothers me is that in fics Kim often takes on a role of a sort of mediator, settling disagreements, deescalating situations, clearing up misunderstandings. I think that in many ways, that’s the kind of person that he aspires to be, but canonically he has pretty fucking awful people skills. He can barely have a conversation without putting on the role of Cop. I think that one of the main things he admires about Harry is his ability to read people and connect with them.
Idk man. Let Kim be a socially awkward dork and let Harry have more depth than a golden retriever archetype
I know we've all been hurt by queer media and there's a lot of people out there right now who are prepared to be disappointed by the show's version of Devil's Minion, but consider this... What if they do an amazing job? What if they exceed our expectations? WHAT THEN HUH?
Oh… That’s why.
