Cartoon Crushes
I think I have a crush on Sora.
You may not be familiar with Sora. He is the spiky haired protagonist of the Play Station Games "Kingdom Hearts" and "Kingdom Hearts II."
I'm not quite sure when this happened, but I suspect it wasn't until the second game when Sora got some new clothes and started looking pretty sharp. However, I do know where it originated from.
I have a history of cartoon crushes you see. I don't even think they have a group for that!
It started when I was quite young, and the cartoon show "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" came out in the late 80s.
I'll admit it. I fell in love with a Ninja Turtle.
I was bound and determined I was going to marry Raphael and live happily ever after in the sewers.
When I become a teenager I grew out of my amphibian infatuation and found a new object of my affection.
Another mutant.
I started watching the X-Men cartoons with my father and it wasn't long before Gambit, the card throwing red-eyed mutant thief and charmer, had captured my heart.
Now it's Sora.
I'm beginning to suspect there's something wrong with me. My husband wasn't too pleased when I told him about my new yen for the Kingdom Hearts Hero.
But then again isn't having cartoon crushes healthier than celebrity crushes? (okay I have those too so I guess that point is moot either way).
I wasn't the only one you know. My friend Melissa followed me step by step for awhile. During our young years we were going to have a double wedding, me marrying Raphael and she marrying Michelangelo. While I was swooning over Gambit, she had a crush on Wolverine.
On the other hand being in love with fictional people is kind of disturbing. Maybe I should seek help.
Or I could just go play some more Kingdom Hearts and admire Sora's unique sense of justice and fashion. He has the coolest hair.
