Top Ten Fictional Crushes

So, I've decided to share with you something I had previously thought I would keep more to myself. It's my Top Ten Fictional Crushes! I was keeping it under wraps because (to me) it is quite personal and offers a look into my personality. But then I thought to myself: "Self! Only like three people read your blog, so if you wanna write a post about it #yolo." So, without further adieu, my top ten.

1. Will Graham
 
My favorite version of Will Graham is Hugh Dancy from the show Hannibal. Will's heart just completely breaks me. I just want to hug him and let him play with all of the dogs ever. I can't even talk about Will without getting super, girly-gushy and high pitched so I'm just going to stop here.

2. Dean Winchester (Supernatural)
 
Dean Winchester is the newest addition to my list, and he jumped a BUNCH of people to clench this number two spot. I very slowly accepted the feels for this man. At first, I only acknowledged him as the character I felt closest exhibited the way I think/feel/act. I still think that, but I'm accepting the fact that Dean is bae.
 
 
3. Dexter Morgan
 
Dexter was my number one for a long time. He is complicated and I can't explain exactly why I'm so drawn to him..I just told my sister that so far all of these men are very broody. She laughed at me..Hence the not sharing before.
 
 
4. Erik (The Phantom of the Opera)

 
Ohhhhh, people. My dad took me to see The Phantom of the Opera for the first time when I was in 8th grade. I loved every second of it. I begged him for the soundtrack when we left the theater and then proceeded to listen to it every free second of every day for at least the next month until every word was ingrained to my very soul. I read the book and though quite different, I still liked the character. He needs a hug.
 
5. Mal (Firefly)
 
I want Captain Malcolm Reynolds in my corner. He is smart. He is funny and daring. He is exceptionally loyal to the people he cares about. I want to be one of those people. I had always refused to watch Firefly. I'm not really sure why (I probably wanted to spare my delicate feels, I should have listened to myself). I am really glad that I finally broke down and did though, because otherwise I never would have met this wonderful man.
 
6. Castiel (Supernatural)
 
Men in trench coats looking perpetually confused though, amirite? I love watching Cas get more acquainted with human emotions. He is undeniably sweet, but he can be tough when he needs to be. Love, love, love.
 
7. Peeta Mellark (Hunger Games)
 
Peeta is probably the most wholesome character on this list. I really love his kind heart and the way he does not mind being in the background. He's protective, but not in an overbearing way. I absolutely loved him in the books so I was super excited when he was played by an actor I already had a teensy crush on. #teampeeta
 
8. Alexei Vronsky (Anna Karenina)
 
Sorry all, I couldn't find a good picture without Anna (Karenina). Kevin McKidd's portrayal of Count Alexei Vronsky has been my favorite. He's just such a passionate man. Stupidly so, but in a sweet kind of way. He is not the most well-rounded of characters, sure. He had plenty of faults. But boy can he love and that's what makes me love him.
 
9. Logan Huntzberger (Gilmore Girls)
 
I think the thing I like the most about Logan is how he challenges Rory to do more and be more. He's kind of a jerkface when she first meets him, but he grows up and becomes a really decent man. He pursues his dreams, but also encourages her to pursue her own.
 
10. Theodore Laurence (Little Women)
 
I LOVE Laurie's adventurous spirit. He just welcomes himself over to the March sister's house and joins on in to their fun. He is the kind of goofball I seriously want to have around.
