You ever make an OC and give them a name because they're supposed to be the MC, only to focus on a completely different OC whose a sidecharacter at least and the third wheel of the protagonist's trio at best and the villain of a completely different OC at some rather OK times.

And you're focusing on that second OC for so long you forget the name of the MC OC, so you ask your friends for names for the MC OC, then, when you're making up a new name for them, you remember the old name and realise that you didn't have any real thought into the original name besides the fact that it was alliteration. And therefore it was infinately better.

but one of the characters is an immortal divine being who does not need sleep.

Let's make the hero lie to their friend a bit too much until it pushes their friend over the edge.

Hey, the new big bad seems oddly familiar.

"We have four codes; manipulate, manslaughter, maim and mutiny."

"Pretty sure it's 'manipulate, mansplain, manslaughter'."

"It was until the turn of the the 20th century."

[chorusofcrows]

"Do you usually act like this?"

"Like what?"

"Like a dick."

Reverse character arc: instead of getting better, they get worse.

Villain undercover at Hero's agency >>> food

"What the hell is wrong with you?" Hero shouted.

Villain raised an eyebrow, "Do you want a list?"

Same energy

Villain: When have I ever done anything wrong?

Hero: Do you want me to answer that alphabetically or chronologically?

[chorusofcrows]

The main character isn't interesting unless they have flaws. And they aren't an interesting hero character unless they fail. A lot.

"What the hell is wrong with you?" Hero shouted.

Villain raised an eyebrow, "Do you want a list?"

[spekulatiusmuffin]

NINE.

"I can arrange the chairs together. I'll sleep there." Hero offered, turning away from the bed.

Villain scowled, "No need. I'm taking first watch, I'll wake you up in three hours and we can switch. Besides, I need a shower."

Hero laughed, "Watch, really? Afraid the monster under the bed is going to come get us?"

Villain looked at the bed for a solid moment, "I wouldn't be surprised."

Hero sighed, "But three hours? How am I supposed to get my beauty sleep in three hours? Besides, by the time it's my turn for watch, I'll be too tired to watch out for anything! We're in a motel, it has secerity!"

Villain scoffed, "You mean the three security cameras on this entire property? Two that are actually working?"

"No one followed us! You're so paranoid!"

"The more you argue the more it sounds like you want me to cuddle you to sleep." Villain sneered, "I'll take full watch, you can get your beauty sleep, though I doubt you need it. You'd still be beautiful torn to shreds and worn to exhaustion."

Hero was far too flustered to complain, much less sleep that night.
