It’s a strange kind of happiness, isn’t it?
Watching the character you created live the life you could only imagine. Seeing people love them, cheer for them, cosplay them, and bring them to life. Their story keeps growing, their world gets brighter, and with every fan they meet, they become more alive than ever.
Meanwhile, behind that character is just a simple creator, someone who isn’t nearly as remarkable as the person everyone admires on the screen or stage. Sometimes the creator is tired, lonely, or still trying to figure life out. The distance between reality and fiction can be heartbreaking.
But maybe that’s the beauty of creating stories. Even if I can’t always give myself a happy ending, I can give one to someone I made. I can watch them smile, make friends, find love, overcome hardships, and become someone people look up to.
I may only be a simple person in real life, but seeing my character live a happier, more meaningful life is enough to remind me why I started creating in the first place.
Perhaps, through them, a small part of me gets to be happy too.
