WYR: get your favorite character as a roommate or become friends with your favorite person? (self.wouldyourather)

Nothing else about your life changes. Real world, but either with this fictional character as a roommate or your favorite real person somehow becoming your friend.

Obviously ignoring partners, best friends, family and such here when defining this favorite person. Could be someone whose work you respect a lot, an important parasocial relationship in your life, just someone you really like, or anything similar.

Bonus round: the person you hate the most as your roommate or the character you hate the most as your enemy?

Well my favourite people are the people I know and love. My favourite character keeps changing so thats a tough call too. And I don't want a roommate anyways :(.

But if I had to, gandalf is moving in ig.

Exactly

Ehhh, to play along, I have to ignore the fact that I don't have favorite people that aren't already friends. I also have to give the caveat that my favorite characters are all mine.

But, I think I'd rather have the new friend than the new roommate. That's just in general, but I also can't imagine any of the characters on the list lasting as roommates. Being a roommate is a pain in the ass that most crimes adults can't tolerate for long.

But yeah, I think my favorite public figure would be a good friend. Mind you, it depends on exactly how limited the standard is. If we go living or dead, the person changes.

Edit: didn't know if you wanted the names. Living, it would be David Mack, a fairly well known artist that I've actually met a few times. Dead, it's Kurt Vonnegut

Bonus round, I'll take the enemy. Pretty much any characters I "hate", are hated because they're poorly written and thus ineffective. Caveat being that if I dislike a character enough, I'll just stop reading/watching whatever it is long before it turns to hate.

Edit for name: Sealy Booth. Yeah, he's an FBI agent on the show, but wtf is he going to do besides being snide at me? He's now an enemy, but I'm just a middle aged crippled fuck, not a serial killer

You know, after some reflection, I think the bonus round might just end in me committing a crime regardless. Hmm.

Also this WYR is probably a bit too serious and open, needs more stupid(ly specific) to fit in with the crowd. Realized that a little late.
