Description I made this comic to show a strange observation (and because this theme is very personal to me...and I guess to some of you, too).

Characters like the ones mentioned in this comic are extremely loved in the fandom while real people like that aren't. They often even have their lives made hell by fellow humans. Because, as sad as it is, society hates the ones who are different. They are picked on and become social outcasts.
I think, especially L is a typical example, since he shows signs of the asperger's syndrome. (Those who know what that is will know what I’m talking about…)

I guess, this is because in fiction, people get to know the characters from the inside and learn to appreciate them 'as a whole' but in real life, people often see only the outer side and label them as 'strange', 'freaks', etc.

Btw, the guys in panel 5 are supposed to be (young) Snape's and L's 'real life equivalents'.
And the shallow and hypocritical behaviour of the bitches girls in this comic is meant to represent the 'offending side' (I know it’s still very harmless here compared to what often happens IRL.)

I think I get what you're saying here. And to be honest, I can't stand people who think they're perfect. And bully and put down people they consider to be "weirdos". Ugh. I can't stand those bullies.

PS: Is that an Excalibur face reference I see in the last panel?

I don't want to sound like I'm trying to be perfect, because I'm not, but I often go after guys that are considered 'freaks.' 


I have Asperger's syndrome by the way.

Yuck I know EXACTLY the kind of bitches you're referring to. 


I can honestly say that I would definitely be friends with the real life equivalents of L and Severus because I am the real life version (well except I'm female). XD I favor characters like L and Severus because they remind me of myself.

this is so true. i think you should never judge someone before you've talked to them and completely understood them. i know you get random thoughts in your head, even about your friends, like 'that top doesnt really fit them' or 'their nose is quite large' but you can block them out so you can know them.

I love this because of the irony. My friend is the exact same way. This basically happened with us, except it was both of us for L. Then we were at the mall the next day and I saw a boy who looked very VERY much like him, and was sitting in one of the chairs in the middle of the mall, on his laptop. I was like "Hey, look at him! Doesn't he look like L?" She was all confused and like, ew no he's probably a weirdo. But I still thought he looked cute and I ended up seeing him at barnes and noble some other day. Guess who talked to him? ^.^

No no, real life Snape equivalent is reading Harry Potter. Thou who readeth Harry Potter is automatically a person I must talk to (at least in my mind).

Anyway, this is so sadly true...
