endear

Whether soaring through the sky or sharing a playful moment with his human bestie Hiccup, Toothless, the dark-hued dragon with a friendly face and an injured tail, disarms you with his endearing nature.

That did not endear them to their fans, particularly not after the Dodgers took home a championship trophy because no one could beat L.A. in October.

For Posey, whose life and career have been filled with tiny, singular eccentricities that have so endeared her to fans all over the world, the passing of some berries between friends was apt.

In a statement provided to Variety, Mahaffey's husband Joseph Kell said that he had "lost the love of my life, and America has lost one of its most endearing actresses".

His vulnerability and relatability is part of what makes him endearing to his followers.
