I can't draw so picrew is where I go for character creations. Anyways! Everyone meet Amber and her rowdy crew! I've had this idea swimming in my head for a while so I decided I'd give it a shot and write it, let's see how far this goes 🥴
When you finish a book or series and are excited to join the fandom only to find out that you are the whole fandom...
writing character intros is just *tries not to spoil entire backstory* *tries not to spoil entire character arc* *tries not to spoil
imo the best way to interpret those “real people don’t do x” writing advice posts is “most people don’t do x, so if a character does x, it should be a distinguishing trait.” human behavior is infinitely varied; for any x, there are real people who do x. we can’t make absolute statements. we can, however, make probabilistic ones.
for example, most people don’t address each other by name in the middle of a casual conversation. if all your characters do that, your dialogue will sound stilted and unnatural. but if just one character does that, then it tells us something about that character.
Me @ writers: you just make that shit up from your brain???
*squints at the three lines in Word that have remained unchanged for weeks* In theory
We make that shit up in our brain and sometimes that’s where it stays
You are providing a vital life service when you do this and your magic ears are appreciated.

my writing ability currently feels on par with that of like…. a seven year old. i’m just writing one sentence. then another sentence. subject verb object, dependent clause period. do any of them relate? unclear. that is for god to decide. i certainly can’t.
the url makes this so much funnier
character in a fight scene: *restrains their opponent by pinning them against the wall by their wrists*
me:
character in a fight scene: *pins their opponent down by straddling their waist and holding their wrists to the floor*
me:
character in a fight scene: *lifting their disarmed opponent’s chin slightly with the business end of their weapon*

👀 I think you are amazing 👀
🙈🙈🙈 awe thank you! But not as amazing as you
Kudos to fanfiction writers for writing about all the trauma and emotional and mental turmoil that the original content creators dont acknowledge when putting characters through hell
This has evolved to one of fanfiction’s major assets in my eyes. To every author that cares enough about the characters in their stories to examine trauma, but also the slow, tedious processes of healing and recovery: your stories mean so much to me and other persons with mental health problems. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
bonus points if someone comes in and interrupts you and you have to start all over.
