    Not a movie character, but when I was a teenager the answer was 100% Willow Rosenberg.

    Can’t really think of anyone as an adult.

      Yep, same here. Willow was my big TV crush back then. She even won against Dana Scully.

        Wow…I’m not sure anyone could beat Dana Scully in my book.

        Charisma Carpenter could come close though!

    Allison from The Breakfast Club. I can fix her.

    I’m not a teenager anymore however, so yeah, no thanks, Chris Hansen. I’ll stand.

      She was perfect the way she was. I hate that she let Claire give her a makeover.

        That was the line from the book, but they changed it to ‘I haven’t been fucked like that since grade school’ to make it less controversial.

          So that’s not the full story about the movie… from memory but the best that I remember it, they originally shot the line from the book. The studio came back with some notes, among them being hey that thing with the abortion is pretty over the top. So, they shot the line that made it into the movie instead, and the studio lost their damn minds and said that is way worse, please change it back to the abortion one at least, but they stuck to their guns and said nope, you wanted it changed so we changed it, we’re doin this one now. And, apparently, they won, because that’s what’s in the movie, even though it is objectively quite a bit worse.

            That’s still not the full story. The full story is that Helena Bonham Carter is English and didn’t know what grades “grade school” referred to in the US, so she didn’t realize just how beyond the pale the line she was saying actually was until afterwards.

              Which meant she was perfectly blasé about it while she was saying it

              Well played to the man. Yeah, I was confused even while typing out the story how he had managed to make the new one stick. That makes it make sense.

      I’m on the 4th book but finished the series. How does she have any red flags? Given what she’s been through and her profession, she seems to be fairly well composed individual. Great friend and always kind to the people important to her. It’s like dating a trucker, them not being around often and being somewhat detached comes with the territory of their profession.

        She only had red flags at first: she was a young woman trained and itching to kill for a while.

        I would not marry Bobbie Draper to have her go out and do all the trucking on her own. We would definitely live in a ship together, or wherever she wanted.

    Lenore from the Castlevania Netflix series.

    Tons of consent issues for sure, but she’s gorgeous and smart as hell.

      I have a huge crush on Charlie Day as well! I think I’d take him as Dr. Newt Geizsler from Pacific Rim tho. While I am usually like “Daw I love Charlie” in IASIP, there’s something about him wearing winter underwear with socks that’s an immediate turn off. 😂

    Zuko from AtLA, but part of that was also a deep experiential empathy for his character growth arc. Also sometimes having undefined gender issues at the same time makes it really hard to tell whether a feeling like that is attraction or envy.
