If Glenn wins, I will devour the earth. Y'all, Night Vale built the house you live in!! Queer podcast would not be where they are without Carlos, they were gonna have Cecil's instant crush be a one off joke (you'll notice Josie also falls in love instantly) but Carlos was SO hot they made it canon and it redefined the entire medium!!

Okay but this tournament is not about finding the most important, historic, influential, best, or even favourite fictional podcast character. It's about who the voters think is sexiest. And for some people, a messy disaster of a rockstar who sings Christmas music in an overthrown Hell and hit a child-abuser with a deez-nuts joke before dying to a deez-nuts joke and now has nothing (including neither wife nor son) does more more for them than someone with perfect hair and teeth like a military cemetery who has a labcoat for every occasion and is touch-averse* and hid from everyone who loves him that he spent a decade in the Desert Other World. Such is life, we all have our own tastes.

*EDIT: Mod forgot þeir own rules for no book-sourced propaganda for a moment there. Ignore that bit.

#Also like they were going to have Cecil gay from the beginning. Like always. I don't think it was supposed to be a joke.#The fandom blew up only after season one. I don't think Cecil/Carlos was made canon *for* the shippers.#Anyways my brother has been aware of this tournament since Glenn vs. Taako but it was only today or yesterday when he found out it was #about which character was *sexier*. I explained to him that a) there is a historical context that I *could* explain but I imagine he isn't #interested in and b) I have to give you fuckers (affectionate) *some* criteria to base your vote on.#Imagine the chaos if this was a ''Best Fictional Podcast Character'' tournament.#Not A Poll #Ask #Anonymous
