Fictional character crushes

Inspired by another thread who is your fictional character crush?

In no particular order:

Carlise (Twilight)
Edward (Twilight)

& Evan Peters in pretty much all of the bad boy roles in American Horror story but if I have to choose ‘March’ (in Hotel) 😍

should add - the actors don’t really appeal its 100% the character 😜

Fox in Animals of Farthing Wood and the Disney Robin Hood (also a fox) it's a fox thing clearly...🤣

Oh my god I thought I was the only one. I positively loved them both as a child 😂

He is the perfect blend of alphahole brooding bad boy who can only be tamed by Veronica

OMG yes!! How could I have forgotten Logan. My favourite ever TV couple.

"I thought our story was epic, you know. You and me. Spanning years and continents. Lives ruined and blood shed. Epic."

And then he went and joined the navy... the uniform!!

Another for Jamie Fraser. Also for me Rhett Butler.

feistyoneyouare · 03/08/2022 01:48

Another vote for Gene Hunt. 😳

You and my grandmother! She LOVED him.

DinosaursEatMan · 03/08/2022 01:49

I second Rhett Butler @Hels20
But only in the book, definitely not as played by Clark Gable.

LouisRenault · 03/08/2022 02:10

Six pages in and no mention of Francis Crawford of Lymond?

And who'd want Richard Hannay when Sandy Arbuthnot is available?

Hels20 · 03/08/2022 02:16

Gilbert Blythe too - he was my first crush.

it’s a long time since I read Riders, but I also had a crush on Jake.

and of course Ross Poldark.

Spudina · 03/08/2022 02:25

Eric Northman (Trueblood)
Carlisle Cullen (Twilight)
Lucifer (Tom Ellis)
Fox Mulder
Spencer (Criminal Minds)
James Bond (Daniel Craig only)

LetsGoCrazyPurpleBanana · 03/08/2022 03:42

Jack Bauer 😋

LetsGoCrazyPurpleBanana · 03/08/2022 03:42

Gene Hunt😍

Also The Captain in Ghosts.
And, inexplicably, Robin the cave man 🤷🏼‍♀️

i had to double check that I hadn’t posted this, although, I think Humphrey and Robin are equally appealing. Clearly I am a Laurence Rickard fan.

Oblomov22 · 03/08/2022 04:27

Uhtred and Erik.
Athos and Strike - Tom Burke.

DeanStockwelll · 03/08/2022 04:45

I haven't RTFT but @AppleHa @LiveshipParagon and all other Spike fans if you like listening to books and have audible or similar, look for the series by Jim Butcher The Dresden Files James Marsters narrates all of the I could listen to his voice all day long.
his description of himself( which it's quite frequently ) in the book is nothing like what spike looks like but he sounds very handsome.

By pure coincidence I could also listen the Anthony Head who plays Giles in Buffy all day too

Winterfellismyhome · 03/08/2022 07:08

@Anguauberwaldironfoundersson yes! I was all about Tamlin!

Haha those two are 😍. I haven't read Throne of glass yet but its on my shelf!

husbandcallsmepickle · 03/08/2022 07:21

Rupert Campbell-Black

Adam Carter (from Spooks)

Deathraystare · 03/08/2022 07:23

My first crush was Louby Lou the rag doll from Andy Pandy. I used to run crying to mummy if she did not appear!

Then the Hood from Thunderbirds. I used to get stirrings from that bad man!!
Captain Black from Captain Scarlet.

Jack Wild as the artful Dodger and in H R Puff n Stuff.

Colin Firth as , yes , Mr Darcey!

Erik Northman
Uhtred from The Last Kingdom
Spike - Buffy
Aragon
Idris Elba in anything!

loads more but cannot remember

I really hope he gets his redemption HEA but he certainly hasn't painted himself in glory so far.

Throne if Glass is definitely not as good as ACOTAR but it's still good, you can just tell it was her first ever series. My favourite character is Manon - I want to be her when I grow up

Anguauberwaldironfoundersson · 03/08/2022 07:27

Forgot about Erik Northman. Especially in book 4!

NRogers · 03/08/2022 07:30

Chris Evans' Captain America.

(Although wouldn't say no to new Cap either.)

NRogers · 03/08/2022 07:35

Oh and I forgot Eric from True Blood and Spike from Buffy.

Also Faith from Buffy and Natasha Romanoff (I definitely have a 'type' when it comes to girl crushes - but it's more that in a fantasy situation I'm them so not sure it counts?)

Glad I name changed for this 😂

LadyCatStark · 03/08/2022 07:39

Also Edward Cullen, Jon Snow, Captain James from Our Girl and Mike from Friends.
