  1. @scribus Well, it's not so much about self-insert as it is about EVERYTHING IS PERFECT AND THEY CAN DO NO WRONG or THEIR SPECIAL TALENT WORKS ON ANYONE AND EVERYONE NO EXCEPTIONS EVAR or just having one character who resolves everyone else's problems by simply existing. Owlicious/Aloysius comes pretty close to fitting the last one, but he's also causing problems by sticking around. (And being limited to a vocabulary of "who" is a pretty big character flaw, I'd think.) Most of the problems that were picked for him to solve were things that would work for pretty much any bird, and not just that particular character. So it doesn't really fit the Sue trope that much.
