i love characters who are inauthentic. characters who have an ever-present mask on, who deflect everything with humor, who struggle so much with being serious and vulnerable. characters who always have a joke or a flirtation ready, anything to distract from what’s actually going on underneath. characters who only let their guard down around certain people that they trust to not immediately abandon or ridicule them. characters who always hide their true selves because they’re afraid their true self is not worthy or deserving of love. characters who are inauthentic because they don’t believe anyone would want to be around their authentic self.
