Leslie Knope for me!
Satan. Would be nice if all the shitty decisions in my life could be sloped off onto some malevolent thing created by an all knowing god only to be evil.
Don juan
Hecate
If we’re bringing in mythical feminine icons, you can’t top the OG Mother-Maiden-Crone.
The Vision.
Indestructible, level-headed, compassionate mind-reader? All the world’s big problems would be solved overnight.
(Assuming no Corvus Glaive)
Jeb Bartlett
Doctor Who could whisk me away for a few adventures.
The Doctor is a harbenger of death. People die or are maimed around him quite frequently.
Worth the risk. People die or are maimed by cars everyday, at least the Doctor will be more fun.
Worth it for the adventure. Also companions have a far better survival rate than randos.
Leslie Knope would be in prison, if she were real. She commits a new ethics violation damn near every episode.
Dwayne Elizondo Mountain Dew Herbert Camacho
Say what you will about Idiocracy, but President Camacho knew his country was suffering a problem and he found the smartest man in the world, hired him, and put him to work to resolve it. If only we could get Trump to care this much.
Robin Hood, but modernized as a 21st-century hacker type so that he can cope in today’s world. But I’d still like him to look like he belongs in an edgy 90s movie, complete with green tights, for authenticity’s sake.
Hacker Robin Hood obvs. rocking programmer socks
Elliot (Mr Robot)
The Doctor from Doctor Who. It’d be nice to think we were all being simultaneously respected, cared for, and defended by someone smarter and kinder than most of us.
I wouldn’t want to attract his/her enemies.
The person I know I could be.
There’s still time…
Vaporeon.
God.
Specifically the version of God that is simultaneously all good, all knowing, and all powerful.
Were our universe created by such a being, evil could not exist: our reality would be very, very, very different compared to the dumpster fire that we all get to experience.
Agree, but I was think more like the Greek gods. They’re far more interesting.
Interesting definitely, but idk about actually living under that lore… Top boss God is a horny mofo that’ll stick it in anything with a hole, with or without consent, sometimes immediately after shapeshifting into a bull or something; and all of the other gods are some degree of petty or mischievous.
…which honestly is kinda how life is under the US government, so… pass!
i’m glad you wrote it before i did : your take is much more detailed and thaurough than mine on this idea.
I was going to say that I kind of wish The Devil existed, because then we would know that truly horrible people would eventually face damnation, and in a way it’s nice to imagine that cosmic justice could exist.
Captain planet (he’s our hero) (gonna take pollution down to zero)!
We could really, really use an environmentalist power that isn’t beholden to any nation or company.
Is there a fictional character that kills billionaires? If so then that one.
“The Death”
