Character in special interest, prop for semi-cosplay

Post Reply New Topic

Does anyone else often find they want to be like a character from their interest? Find that they enjoy pretending to be that character?
This is a common thing in my interests. Recently I have been a victim of bullying and my character, Natasha Romanoff- better known as Black Widow, is more than capable of dealing with these type of people. I would like a reminder of this strength in the way of a prop I could carry- such as in my previous interest I always carried a spell book. I am looking for ideas of things I could carry to make me feel safer. (I know I wouldn't actually be any safer but I would feel better and more confident if I felt I could be Natasha at any time.

It's common to want to be someone else. Many people dissociate by doing just what your saying and there's nothing wrong with that as long as you aren't taking it to extremes. Like for example beating people up like Natasha does to bad guys. It sound's like and if I'm wrong she's a role model to you and everyone needs someone they look up to or admire and respect.

I kind of do what you do. I like to pretend I'm a Hufflepuff who transferred from the American school Ilvermorny to go to Hogwarts and now I'm all grown up and make quilts for Hufflepuff dorm rooms that are custom ordered by students. I also made a charm that's the fastest and most effective way of sewing that's made me pretty well known in the wizarding world.

Also sorry that you have been bullied you are a person and are worthy of respect no matter what anyone says.
