Description
"I'm alive, what's not worth smiling about? If you can't smile at the mere fact that you are still breathing and you will be able to see the sun the next morning, then you must be doing something wrong."A wee little doodle of Charlie being happy that heβs just alive after nearly having his insides drained out by a rogue alien with a god-complex. Have I ever mentioned how much I'm falling in love with my Charlie? I think I like him mainly because of how he can preach things like hell, yet at times just breaks down and has to have those he's preached preach him back to stop him from doing anything he'll regret. Sure Charlie is 200+ years old but being that he had no family to take care of him and to teach him what it is to be an 'adult' he's still a child, and inside he's a scared lonely child too far away from home who feels like he has to be invincible and save everyone when he knows he's not, and he can't. Charlie's survived when no one else has, which probably is what makes him so lonely.
I have a tendency to make sad characters because characters are my outlets and I create them to dispel the overwhelming negative qualities and experiences I have, but none of them have been a 'biopolar' character like I am: being nearly manic happy and optimistic yet have so many of these awful experiences and in total just being lost in everything. Charlie's the first of my characters who rises above the fact that he's always alone, or becomes alone sooner or later, he doesn't let his knowledge that those he surrounds himself will more likely die impede him from being around people or caring for people. He may have lived so long it really just seems like torture to live any longer but Charlie finds a reason to keep going, to be able to wake up the next day and just say he's alive.
I love my little lone travelin alien
