OMG I have so many fictional crushes it's unreal

KEEPER 

Keefe- Obviously. He's so funny and handsome! Plus really sweet and caring

Tam- Whelp, he's just so lovable in a sulky, mysterious, k-pop handsome way.

Fits- I definetly don't approve of his personality that much, but he's super pretty and handsome so *giggles*

SCHOOL FOR GOOD AND EVIL

Tedros! So kingly cute <3

Hort- I've always thought him pretty cute, and then he had to go get all buff *rolls eyes at self*

RICK RIORIDAN WORLDS

Percy- pretty self explanatory here- son of sea god, handsome, good fighting skillz, funny

LEO VALDEZ ACK- It's like another Keefe! only better!

Jason- meh here, just a lil crush

Frank- same as Jason, but he is really sweet

I'll be back with more- but that's enough for now!

I've had countless fictional crushes in the past... but right now I kind of like Ren in Love and Gelato. He's so sweet, and he reminds me a bit of someone I have a crush on irl *dreamy sigh*

Phoenix Tears!!!!!!!! YOU'RE ALIVE I'M SO GLAD TO SEE YOU---- I've missed seeing you around, you're always so funny and nice :))) It's great to read you again!

I know, he's so adorable and at the same time so caring and sweet in his personality <3 My favorite romcom boy :> And the whole book is so lovely, with the setting of Italy and the other characters (Howard, Sonya, Lina ofc, and then Ren Ren Ren to make it perfect)

HI HI HI!!! i've missed seeing you guys too!! been really busy with school and stuff so i kinda dropped off the face of the earth but i wanna come on here more, i miss this place :>

I mean this book is just so so good :') ... it's my happy book that i read when i'm sad!

I tried to watch the movie but they changed like 12 things in the first 15 minutes so I stopped watching because I didn't want to ruin my memories of such a good book with such an annoying movie.

yeah, school takes up so much darn tImE, doesn't it? :/

also actually the reason I read the book was because I'd seen you recommend it on Amethyst's book recommendations thread, so thanks for introducing me to it!

Hmm, I probably won't watch the movie, then. I knew there was one, but I was kind of hesitant about trying it since good movie adaptations of books seem sort of rare. Nvm, omeday I'll be a professional screenwriter and make another Love and Gelato movie, one that sticks to the original storyline :)

Have you read Love and Luck? It's about Addie and Ian traveling through Ireland, plus Lina makes an appearance toward the end - AND SO DOES REN >:DD

Iffy says "eouuw." Iffy are you saying "ew" about Ren? Bad Iffy we don't say that or think that in this family!

 

submitted by Settia@Phoenix Tears, hiiii :)

Yay I'm glad you're coming back :D

Yeah, as with Poinsettia, I only read Love and Gelato because you recommended it - thanks for that :] If you haven't read it, Love and Olives is also by the same author/has a similar theme, and though the characters from Love and Gelato don't come out in it (whyyyy :( the main boy in it isn't half as nice as Ren), the setting and atmosphere and characters still make it worth reading.

Oh no the movie isn't good? It's the perfect book to make into a movie; some books just need to be dramatized, and Love and Gelato is one of them. All the party scenes would be so nice to watch, and I want to see Ren~

ME TOO IT'S LIKE MY FAVORITE BOOK OF THE DECADE-

Ren's just so fun and nice, and I love Hadley and Howard... [SPOILERS AHEAD] poor things, their love story is so sad but at least Howard got an adoptive daughter in the end.

Also, hi! It's so nice to see you around, I've missed you! How've you been?

Oh, gosh... here we go.

Mainly, Leo Valdez from the Riordanverse. Just... he's so sweet and caring and funny and relatable and loyal and genius and cute and aaaaaaaaaaaaa. Once my friend asked me at a bat mitzvah why I like reading so much and I talked for two hours about Leo Valdez. No joke. 

Also in 6th grade I remember having a crush on Micah from A Place At The Table? I also kinda stole hi and made him into one of my charries... Idk

Also somewhat have a crush on Fig from A Chance To Fly

Okay so I notice that all three characters above have short-ish curly dark hair, and are funny but also kind. Huh. 

Okay back to the Riordanverse, there's only really 2 characters out of the 7 whom I wouldn't date (Jason and Frank). The rest of them- *swoon*
