Jeroscope Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Im assuming most people here had imaginary friends growing up. Fox McCloud was mine, always inspiring me to become a pilot. What was yours? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snys93 Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 I imagined (as a child) that me and Capt. Kirk were one and the same, so that gave leeway to interact with Spock and McCoy. The backyard and playhouse was the enterprise and friendly family dog a terrifying Gorn. Raaawr!!! Haha! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vy'drach Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Even today I often have dialogues with characters I love from various works of fictions, and play out scenarios in my head. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimmy Darnell Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 If I can remember, back in my younger years I had Johhny five, Robocop, and Buzz lightyear I think. Those were the days by gaw. Now I've lost touch with that, though they occasionaly appear in dreams n such. Now its just acting out something as Dimitri in my head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
russiandog38 Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 When I was younger, I always had the Scooby Doo gang to keep me company. Today, I still imagine diffrent situations with all my characters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redeemer Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 I didn't really have any imaginary friends, the closest thing I had were headcanons about stuff. My sister, on the other hand, had teams of imaginary friends which were characters from her favourite movies and games - I think this was an early sign of her creativity, which in itself is really impressive and much more broad and unique than my own.

The Shaper Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Never had imaginary friends. Well of course with the exception of my womanizing pal who has an account on SF-O. Redeemer, he thinks you are very pretty. Dras, he thinks you could pass for one of the Twilight vampires in the right setting. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redeemer Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Never had imaginary friends. Well of course with the exception of my womanizing pal who has an account on SF-O. Redeemer, he thinks you are very pretty. That's really cute, tell him thank you very much from the bottom of my heart. I should make an imaginary friend to ship him with then draw all the fanart. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EvolutionSFox Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Never had any imaginary friends, had too many siblings to keep me preoccupied. :/ 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drasiana Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 The only imaginary friend I remember having was a very brief stint where that one Digmon (Gabumon?) was my invisible bestie but I think everything else I got out of my system by writing, which I started doing in Kindergarten if not earlier (which was, to be fair, mostly just me writing down dreams I had about various cartoon characters, so...) Dras, he thinks you could pass for one of the Twilight vampires in the right setting. The first thing I ever acted in was a Twilight parody where I played Fem!Edward so...they thought right! ...now I just stick to cameos in the ones I write, for good reason... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redeemer Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 The first thing I ever acted in was a Twilight parody where I played Fem!Edward so...they thought right! I wish I could see this. D: Also I'm trying to think up a partner for Shaper's imaginary friend but somehow it keeps telling me in a gargly otherwordly voice that I'm "too slow" and morphs into a pastel-coloured mess of Sega inspired anatomy.

Dr. Orange Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 I had an imaginary friend once. It would always make me laugh and gave me support when I needed it. It was also a huge asshole sometimes too but at least it was funny to the both of us. We would play games and watch movies. It was like Tucker from Danny Phantom. But I called him The Internet. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StarFoxfan-FUR_ever Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 I often wondered how to categorize imagination when it came to imagining I was having conversations with people in real life that I knew when they were not really there....that didn't make me insane as a child right? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarita Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 I didn't have one. I'd try to imagine there was someone there and I just felt stupid so I didn't. If I needed someone to talk to and bounce ideas off of I had myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Icy Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 TL;DR warning.Well, I didn't really have "imaginary friends" by the normal definition, but I did think up a terribly complex futuristic sci-fi story. I was the leader of the team and we fought many battles, like dodging an earth-splitting quake in Holland (why Holland? Idk), super sci-fi space battles, infiltrating the evil community's bases on mountaintops in the rain/snow, going undercover within the evil community's own bases to steal top-secret info, freeing our prisoners from the evil community with super stealth, going underwater in a submarine to surface many miles later and stowaway on a huge evil community ship.The list could go on all day. I had fun, that's what matters.The team was kinda like this:Jason - me, the brains, the leader of the small team which was part of the larger "community" as I called it. He knew his stuff and had designed almost all the technology the community used. From semi-mind readers, to super secretly hidden communicators, undetectable tracking devices, small jetpacks that could take you anywhere on Earth in a matter of minutes, super fast stealth space fighters, and so much more.Joey - Jason's longtime friend. Second-in-command. Jason would sometimes fake his death for his own reasons - one time he got thrown off a super fast train and was left for dead with no tech, only to come back and provide sniper support for the team, all the while spying on Joey's ability to lead the team in dangerous situations. Why? Hah, Joey would like to know that too.Joey is always the first to ask questions regarding a decision made by Jason, but the last to object to it.Jak - Former expert spy, owed Jason his life, If we were in a sticky situation, we called him in to get us out of it.Chase - Helicopter pilot that we relied on for exfil. He'd sometimes be relocate due to enemy activity, so we had to trek to a different location, encountering many enemy units along the way.Toby - Just another team member. He had a role, but I don't quite remember what it was.Jason - Another guy named Jason!?? He was another team member who, again, had a role, but I don't recall what it was.I did most of this outside, so depending on the weather/location I would think up a new scenario and go at it. I loved it when a thunderstorm was approaching. It gave me/us a sense of urgency. I'd only play this inside if the scenario called for an inside scene, which did happen frequently.One time we infiltrated this mansion late at night. Chase was waiting in the helicopter miles away, we had someone up on a hill to warn us if anyone arrived. Jason went in alone and got the secret info out of a safe. Enemy troops arrived and we had to make a hasty getaway--99.5% true, seriously. I watched The A-Team and played Critical Mass way too much, so I had quite an imagination.I should write books, though. I really should. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redeemer Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 i support this. Uno don't even you know how easily influenced I am Also Icy that's adorable, you should make a webcomic about that or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harlow Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 Oh well, time for me to get geeky and ridiculous (at least in my head and opinion) I can trace four main ones I had, and here comes the funny part on how they actually influenced stuff. All convos in my head and never out of my mouth on purpose; my parents counted some times I was talking to myself accidentally. I was (and stil l am) a walking factbook (Huge in countries, animals, plants, minerals, body parts, you name it. I could recite body parts, even bones by name since I was six, and countries' capitals). That helped insanely in the creation. Most commonly in the form of Saint-Seiya esque elemental warrior characters. The names were mostly based on the "if it sounds cool" principle I picked from everywhere. How I was feeling or wanting to feel influenced in their activation. Kintaro -Energy (and occasional werewolf) - Success. I recall this cool obsidian-kind black armor, arranged scale-like. Sheik - Electric . Anger Arlow - Ice (later added the H) - One I invented when playing pretend with cousins. Name was also the only one completely original and uninfluenced Amesho - Plant Life - Popularity, admiration May or may not recall how they look? Have to think for a bit. I think Dras would like to have a draw at them if they saw them as I did. For some reason I'm pausing between writing sentences as I feel it's too damn ridiculous. I have to stop that. /: 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackFoxUNDEAD Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 I had one in the third grade, his name was Miles but I ended up outgrowing him 2 months later, looking back at it now, I feel stupid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
