Akhos: idk, could you guys help me? I think I'm stuck on this
Obrona: LOL, no [cosplays to help Akhos with imagery and stuff. She also stays up with him on writing binges]
Patroka: What-ever. [Does all of Akhos' editing for him. Has an uncanny understanding for sentences he makes too complex/convoluted]
Mikhail: Sure, so one day [particularly useful for when Akhos feels he needs to write smut. Mikhail has had just about every kind of sexscapade, and he's willing to share]
Jin: ...ok [he's had really interesting Exes, and Akhos uses stories of them to help bring his characters to life. His favourite to hear about is Godfrey, who is still friends with Jin]
Malos: make it good, kid [Malos occasionally opens up about the emotional abuse he's experienced, just in passing and watered down. Even so, Akhos isn't very good at handling the info, so Malos usually gives it to Jin as a file of very neat notes to hand to Akhos]
Perdido: *shrugs* Sure [Akhos' illustrator. He works really hard at it cause Akhos seems to really like his work, even when they have better artists like Obrona. There's also the plus of the fact that Patroka compliments his art]
Cressidus: you just want me to talk? [Akhos' rock, essentially. Sometimes he just needs to unload about the stresses that come with writing and Cressidus is the person. Cressidus also does the colouring for Perdido's illustrations]
Sever: are you serious? [Akhos' agent. He's got a mean streak and a discerning eye that makes him know what to do to keep Akhos relevant. Him and Patrokha work really closely and are essentially a PR team. They meet monthly to eat food together]
This is an AU btw, and while they all have separate lives, they do stuff for each other/together all the time.
