My Comfort Character Rejection Crisis

ok i don’t really know exactly how to explain this but my brain just suddenly decided to outright reject my comfort character but i didn’t have any backups to replace them so now i don’t have one and i’m panicking even tho it’s really not that big of a deal from an outside perspective but like. that character has been my go to for maladaptive daydreaming, and i’m literally writing a novel length reader insert fanfic that follows the show’s plot to the letter and now that’s all out the window and like. i don’t know i’m just freaking out.
