i was just wondering if anyone else on here thought about how they would get along with their OCs if they were real, like if you would be friends with them or hate each other and everything in between.
with my own characters:
damian: i think we could have a casual friendship, but if we tried to be close friends then i'd start absorbing his negativity because i'm empathetic and then i would start being more negative and exhausted, and he's also empathetic so then he'd start picking up on my own negativity and start internalizing that and it would just be a cycle and we'd end up being exhausted all the time and blaming ourselves for the other's negative moods. but i would definitely sit with him in a coffee shop and talk about animals or something.
dev: assuming that i don't know he's a Literal Serial Killer, we wouldn't get along at all because we're both control freaks and really opinionated. he also has this "i'm better than everyone >:^)" attitude and i wouldn't be able to stand it. i would just think about fighting him 100% of the time. he'd also hate me back because i'd argue with everything he said and make it very clear that i Do Not Like Him. but if i did know he was a serial killer, i'd obviously hate him anyways because like. he's a serial killer. i'd call the police on him and he would insult me during his interrogation and during court because i "can't understand his world view because it's too advanced for me"
jamison: he would annoy me so much. he's the exact opposite of me in every way imaginable and he likes annoying people just to see how they would react and i would end up snapping at him, which would fuel his desire to annoy me even more. i'd also hate trying to hang out with him because 99% of his hobbies are illegal and i don't want to be arrested for arson because i happened to be there and couldn't talk jamison out of it.
sinclair: he started out as a joke self insert and idk what happened, but anyways, considering the fact a lot of his personality is based off of mine, i feel like we could definitely get along. if whatever the conversation is about interests the both of us, we're both really bad about rambling, so we'd probably just end up sitting and talking for five hours. but he hates socializing, so i'd probably just try to force conversation and he'd give really short responses so then i would just give up. but we wouldn't hate each other.

I'm pretty sure they all hate me for what I do to them. In fact i'm fairly certain most of them would either punch me in the face, shoot me or just glare, roll their eyes and huff off.
I'm not nice to my OCs...
I'm not nice to my OCs...
Assuming I was not/they did not know I was responsible for their creation and woes, I'd probably get along pretty well with a number of my characters. But if they did know I was responsible for stuff... well, a couple of them might forgive me for not knowing I was hurting actual feeling beings? 
If you think about it, you are part of your characters. It just like like when actors play in shows and movies. The people they play become a part of them. So really your part of your character and they are a part of you.

Of the OCs I have on RPR, I think the ones I'd get along most with would be Mia and possibly Kai. Mia because I'm good with children and I haven't done anything terrible to her from her point of view, Kai because we have some shared experiences, minus the whole vampirism thing. I'd have to keep a close eye on Mia, though, because if I let her get in trouble her guardian Rem would (figuratively) kill me. Ghaurug is my favorite of the ones I have profiles for here, but he'd probably try to (literally) kill me for all I've done to him...and because it would probably be one of the biggest power trips of his life. Cchaaneh's mind is so alien to a human that, despite understanding how they work, we probably wouldn't get along either. That and I've done some terrible things to their species as a whole. I might not be at risk of getting killed and eaten by them, but it would be a close one...
Assuming I still had all of the knowledge about them as their creator? Even the nice ones would be a little too frightening to hang out with.
Probably only Nadia and Annabelle.
Berry is too crazy and drunk for her own good; she's good peeps but she'd be hella fustrating to be friends with because I'd ALWAYS be worried about her alcoholism.
Legacy is too self centered and conniving.
Haaken's a prick.
Nadia is soft spoken and loves animals, but I probably couldn't stay friends with her long if she didn't do something about her self esteem.
Annabelle and I could be besties.

I have to agree with those who pointed out awareness as a major factor. Assuming my characters didn't know I was the one who orchestrated their lives and we were introduced organically, I'd have a much better chance of keeping my head!
There are some I would avoid altogether, such as Arsonist or Jack, both of whom tend to be vicious and volatile. They rarely make "friends" with anyone they can't use, and those they do sink their claws into tend to get dragged off on dangerous [illegal] adventures. Others are much more casual (and healthy), like Dhoruba, Rigamus, or Trinitera, who all do their best to provide for their current community and will go out of their way to help others. Although Sabbath was a sweetheart in life, her infinitude as a lich (and traumatizing transformation into an undead) left her completely bonkers, I'd stay away from her for my own safety. Ironically, while I play Rangus less than any of them, I think he and I would get along best. I was raised on a ranch, work on a farm, and was a solid marksman in the military. We have plenty in common and multiple reasons to interact. While Dralt is my main, I can't say I'd have many excuses to communicate with him, but personality-wise I'm sure we'd get along fine. I'm more than happy with the goals he's developed for himself and would be willing to support them, but I don't impose or pry, which is important since pushy personalities spike his caution quick.

Okay so assuming they had no idea who I was, only a few of them are okay people.
Lysander, I dunno... I mean he's an okay person but he is pretty morally dubious and i'm not convinced he's really that friendly. I feel like he'd be a bit difficult to actually get that close to. We might "get along" but I doubt it'd ever be much more than just tolerance.
Aydin would just glare at me and be a prickly jerk. I'm not entirely sure how he doens't get punched more often to be honest.
Perry I think would start to irritate me and i'd probably immediately annoy him because i'm loud and talkative and he'd be like "go away."
Nathair I think i'd get on fine with though. I always find it difficult to think of him not liking anyone, he's such a massive extrovert and so dang friendly.
Asher I think we might butt heads on some politic and his tendency to rant might be a little tiring but he does make delicious cake so....
Mitchell and the other vampires I think i'd rather avoid because any interaction with them is likely to be bad news. Mitchell's probably the nicest of them, but that doesn't mean he's a good guy. I don't think i'd have to fortitude or strength of character to handle him and I sure as heck couldn't handle Ben who's a psychopath and Eoin who's a sociopath. Those two are dangerous people, avoiding them completely is wise.
Oli is a decent guy, but i'm not sure how well we'd get along because i'm not sure either of us could really comprehend the other.
Thanasios' death obsession might be a little macabre but i'm pretty macabre so I might be able to handle him. He's pretty chilled out so I doubt i'd be able to offend him easily. I don't think we'd be "friends" but we should be able to you know.. at least tolerate one another's presence for a while.
Dainjen I wouldn't trust as far as I could throw the little dude. He's probably trying to sell me something.
Jay has charisma, I might fall for that. And regret it... so bad.
Eddie would be a fun person to hang out with in a bar but long term I think he'd be pretty exhausting.

Only because I know their weaknesses.
I don't really know
Kukiko: is a mafia hit man with a bad temper but she's nice and kind so I feel if i can get passed the moods she would be fun to hang out with
Raven: is a stone cold, sarcastic, smart ass bitch so no
Miyuki: the pure innocent cinnamon roll I would get along with her
Axel: maybe I dunno he seems like a loner
Xavier: yes he's the sweetest asshole ever
Saoirse: I dunno I kind of don't like her like i want a new personality but don't know what kind

All of them, almost certainly! I don't think I could RP as someone I couldn't get along with... or create a protagonist whose methods and reasoning I didn't agree with, probably. If a character was way, way outside my comfort zone, I don't think I could get inside their head and understand them.
Besides all that, though, I just like to think I'm a pretty agreeable person and could find common ground with these peeps. I'm the kind of optimist who believes I can get along with nearly anybody until proven otherwise!

Cliona and I would be in the same circle of friends but would never hang out because of how introverted we both are. We'd do firebreathing together.
Abellia and I would be fast friends and would mutually help each other through trauma. I'd probably never let her drink my blood, but she would understand that and respect my bodily autonomy. We'd be Tumblr mutuals.
Rowan would be like my wise old uncle and we'd get tattoos and piercings together. He'd probably be someone I'd meet in the club scene.
Beau would be someone I was close with in high school and then fell out of contact with in college. We'd never reconnect, and running into each other would be awkward.
Evka would be too high strung for me, and her almost Evangelical tendencies would turn me off from speaking to her much.
Samira would seduce me once, and then I would regret it forever. Ditto with Samir.
Comtesse would be a little sister that I would cherish and want to protect. I'd probably threaten people for her safety.
I'd pity Dr. Mnemosyne, but she would try to ruin my life.
Brynhilde and I would be cordial, but she'd be too much of a hippie for me. Her wishy washy brand of social justice would get stale.
Aliah would be an overwhelming extrovert, and I'd probably avoid her.

I suspect with Ben I wouldn't have a choice in the matter -- we'd be fast friends purely out of my fear for his chaotic neutral energy.
Daxx, absolutely. Joel - no question.
Silas I would love to listen to him regal me with stories from law, like yes you glorious roman conqueror of a man, tell me about the flock of kickass law women coming to court in their dresses and heels in the dead of night.
I'd befriend my orc. I think he needs it.
Logan and Isaac can miss me.

Alexander (who is a remake of my old dudeman Luke) - that'd be hit or miss, would really depend on what's going on in each of our respective lives. We'd prolly be friends, though one of those friends you don't really hang out with and more just chat on and off with.
Cami would prolly be my best friend tbh. She's a victim who tries to do with best but isn't exactly concerned with "right vs wrong".
Keir I'd prolly get along with but I wouldn't call us friends, more like one of those people you have on facebook but never actually talk to.
Nahid can go die in a hole; she's an absolute grade-a psychopath complete with malignant narcissism and sociopathy that you can see a mile away so she can miss me with that.
Sibylla and I prolly wouldn't get along, I tend not to get along with religious nuts since their constant preaching gets on my nerves and I get tired of hearing about how great such and such god is.

i'd definitely get along with minerva, and vasili. edern too.
i'm not sure if ferran would ever even interact with me at all. i feel like any conversation would end up with me making a fool of myself somehow jkdhafhagj but cassius would end up being rude somehow and saying something too biting and i'd just stop talking to him bc i'm sensitive rip. lucas is an evil jerk and i'd rather die than even meet him ngl
i'd be friends with chase purely for the entertainment. i'm not sure i could handle him for more than twenty minutes at a time but i would be laughing so hard for the entire time that i could
creiddylad would make herself friends with me if i had something she needed. i'd hate her guts once i figured out why i knew her, though. gwyn - man, i dunno. he's hella violent and intense and Always Has To Be Right but i feel like we'd Work well together and get a lotta stuff done
i would like die for sellina tho and nicoe would end up fathering me. i'd try to help keil with his Issues and eventually give up but i feel like we'd get along just fine, he's a great shopping partner and he hypes everyone up and we have similar senses of conversational humor.
i honestly have no clue if i'd get along with saff. i think i might but idk she's so easy to make mad

I could force myself to get along with any of my OCs in a pinch, but most of them are too violent, self-absorbed, or negative for me to be friends with.
Ironically, Gabriel is my friendliest OC but I don't think we would hit it off bc his method of making friends is striking up random conversations in public and I don't take kindly to that lmao
