Hehehe I love asking questions, don’t mind me….
I know that YWMTP is based on your original work, so I was wondering how close you think Rafe and reader are to your OCs? Have they stayed as close as you originally had them, or have you adapted the story to go more with something else?
When you were planning the story, do you think you have kept with your original plot or have you changed it?? If you have, what is your favorite part that you have changed? If you haven’t, what is something small that if it was changed would completely change the trajectory of the story?
Who is your favorite character in this story and why?
And lastly, how on earth do you come up with your stories?? Do they all just pop up in your brain or are you influenced by other forms of media? Or is it a mixture? I would love to know how you think 😭
Thank you for having me! Love you pookie 💙
I love questions so ask as many as you want 🙂↕️ I'll be more than happy to answer them this is LONG so read below the cut. Loved all your questions, thank youu, love you 🩵
1) Them as single characters I feel it's pretty much the same but dynamic wise it changed a lot this was because when I started adapting it to the fic it made me see things in a different perspective and it made more sense to change some stuff like tone down a bit his cockiness, like Rafe still has it but is not as strong as I wrote Nathan. Here's an extract from the OG work and you can see she can't stand him and is more reactive to how he acts.
“You’re in my seat” Nathan announces “Well you weren’t here” I smiled and got back to reading “I’ll give it to you for that pretty smile” he teases and sits in the other seat. “Oh, jeez, thanks,” I say sarcastically, and I finally look up to see him. I’ll give it to him. He is good-looking.
2.1) The main plot is there but I have deleted and added stuff for the sake of the fic BUT like I said the fic has allowed me to see things differently and some of the stuff that I didn't originally plan will be added to the OG work once I finish the fic 🙂↕️ the friend groups weren't part of the original idea, like Avery and Nathan share one friend group and that's it. She has other people but her main friends is just that one friend group AND they didn't meet in sophomore year in the OG hehe they met at the end of freshman but I liked more the idea of her meeting other friends, reconnecting with Kelce and having a link to Rafe but never meeting until after because it made it more like oh they were linked yet never knew.
2.2) I LOVED adding the fight with Jordan, and Jordan in general, the man was actually just gonna be mentioned never have a big role but I fear he's the catalyst for a lot of things moving forward that originally they were a tad bit forced or happened way to quickly with no actual reason behind it. Also this might be a spoiler 🫣, like it's known people will find out, the way Dean finds out about Nathan and Avery is a bit different than how Kelce finds out about Rafe and reader and I really like the way he will find out now, it's more realistic than the way I had planned. Her birthdays are also added and they have a big meaning behind it.
2.3) There's a game before thanksgiving that would change the trajectory if I were to change it. Like a lot happens in that one night, it's very important it stays put.
3) I love Emily with my heart and soul, we haven't seen much about her but she's literally the best, like she is the only consistent thing from the OG work that's on the fic. Same name, attitude, everything. She is a very honest kid and she looks up to other women around her. Her mom being one of course but when she meets Avery in the OG she just immediately clicks with her, and Nathan I feel falls more in love with Avery right there because the kid is picky and can be harsh and is not being like that with Avery. Right now in the fic we have seen Emily likes reader from that one short facetime call and I'm really excited about their future interactions.
