I've come to realise over the years that when it comes to characters, my #1 requirement is actually that they have a strong sense of Integrity. (eg. Steve Rogers)
No matter how physically attractive a character might be, a lack of Integrity is the ultimate turn-off for me. It just leaves me cold. :/
This. So, so this! I've always felt like some kind of weirdo in fandom because one of the cornerstones seems to be, "Ship the hot villain with the protagonist!" (Harry Potter fandom... Riddle and Harry!? Oh my god, please, no.) So I'm always so happy to find people in fandom who feel the same way I do!
