Irma and Hay-Lin from WITCH, who for a long long time were the only characters I could stand as they didn't have PERFECT BOYFRIENDS. Well, Irma had Martin, but Martin obviously belongs with Nigel, but... um, I liked Irma and Hay-Lin for not having boyfriends. Of course Hay-Lin DID get a boyfriend, but he... is so GAY. I mean, SERIOUSLY gay. So it was okay that way, except now it occurs that Irma - poor, adorable and oh-so-uncool Irma - ALSO has got a Perfect Boyfriend. And it's not even Martin.
It makes me sad. That comic is so wonderfully pretty, but I just can't stand how those girls are made absolutely PERFECT on all accounts.
I agree with your dislike of the girls' boyfriends, and for that matter, most of the male characters in w.i.t.c.h. >.< So stupid and unnecessary! They're like, just there for sub-plots, which is dumb because it screws up the whole image of the girls. Martin especially. I wish Irma would mentally persuade him to go drown himself. The irony would be wasted but sweet.
Anyway *gets into post-rant mood* I always loved the Irma/Hay Lin friendship and their interactions... Irma the adorable little troublemaker and Hay Lin who just adores her and follows her like a puppy. Wake up girls! Your boyfriends are narratively UNNECESSARY!
When did it suddenly become cool to hate everything? It's a growing problem, especially in the entertainment world, and no one benefits from an increasingly hard to please, pessimistic audience.
Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it. Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article.
In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.
