Trying to miss the ground

I love sidekicks. Because they are such a wish fulfillment. Everyone wants a Vince to take care of them, a Sock to keep them entertained, a Ron to share their joy and puzzlement, and a Robin to have their back (and maybe something more) although we know full well we can never be Stuart, Sam, Harry or Batman.

Actually, it's because I know I'll never be Stuart or Batman that I love sidekicks so much. I just wish I were Vince or Robin so that I could be close to the dreams I could never have.
