Seymour from Little Shop of Horrors. If you saw my nerdy cuteness, you would see how I looked, and I love the character, and I can sing his part pretty good.

"He found something that he wanted, had always wanted and always would want— not to be admired, as he had feared; not to be loved, as he had made himself believe; but to be necessary to people, to be indispensable." -F. Scott Fitzgerald's This Side of Paradise
