@thewritersdiary, really? 0-0 i mean, i love lexa and all, but i've found clarke's character to be one of the most intriguing mains i've run across in a while >_> i wouldn't want to be friends with her like skyzy said, but she's just...there's some kind of gravitas she has that i haven't rly seen anywhere else. she's...really, really manipulative, for one. you could go on all day about that. and abt the appeal of supporting characters over mains, i think that many times main characters tend to not get as much love as supporting characters - well, mains have to fit some kind of mold, all of them, that will make them appealing to the masses. whereas supporting characters get a bit more leeway with how they develop? i'm not sure if i said this right but, for example, if you've watched buffy the vampire slayer - im not saying buffy doesn't change, but she's certainly changed far less than either spike or willow, who had utterly fantastic arcs over the 7 seasons the show ran, and are both considered fan favorites (...well actually, willow being a fan favorite is very debatable #_#). idk maybe that's what makes at least spike more appealing to audiences than buffy.
