Underused Ways to Show Two Characters Have History
Everyone writes: “We’ve known each other for years!"
But we can do better than that—let's make things actually interesting.
Here are some quick tips for writing two characters with history (without saying, "we've known each for years"):
• They reach for the same object at the same time without looking
• One of them uses a nickname no one else is allowed to use
• They start arguing mid-conversation like the first half already happened
• They move closer when the other looks uncomfortable
• One of them says, “Don’t start,” before the other has said anything
• They know exactly which buttons to press (and press them immediately)
• They unconsciously drift toward each other in crowded spaces
• They anticipate each other’s reactions before they happen
• One quietly moves something (a drink, weapon, chair) because they know the other will reach for it
• Someone might say something, and the other immediately responds with: “You’re still doing that?”
• They suppress laughter at the same time over something no one else noticed
• One character still treats the other based on who they used to be
• A certain place, smell, or song causes them to exchange a look
• Their arguments sound rehearsed, like they’ve had them before
• They touch each other casually without asking (fixing clothing, nudging, taking something from their hand)
• They stand closer than strangers normally would
• They borrow items from each other
• They bring up something embarrassing from ten years ago
• They sit in silence together and it’s either very comfortable or extremely tense
• One of them automatically orders the other’s drink
• They interrupt each other and still somehow finish the same sentence
• One starts a story and the other finishes it automatically
• They argue about the details of shared memories
• They mention people or events without explaining them
• A simple phrase or nickname triggers an entire inside joke
• They notice tiny things about each other no one else would catch
Real history sounds like unfinished conversations, old habits, and arguments that never really ended. When you show shared history (instead of telling) your characters seem that much more alive and believable.
On a similar note: Not all shared history is comfortable. Sometimes shared history means unresolved tension or an old rivalry:
• They refer to something only as “that” or “before.”
• Someone says “You know why.” without explaining further
• Standing slightly farther apart than expected
• Fingers drumming or fidgeting when they’re forced to talk
• Avoiding eye contact for just a second too long.
• A small disagreement suddenly becomes heated.
• One character reacts sharply to something that shouldn’t matter anymore.
• A casual comment triggers silence or defensiveness.
• One character starts explaining themselves but trails off
• One character makes small, cutting remarks disguised as jokes
• They still know each other’s preferences or weaknesses
• They speak in fragments when the past comes up
• They fall into familiar conversations and then awkwardly break them

I'm obsessed with this game highkey bro it's like a disease I am diseased
no souyo sunday but it is pride month so
med people are so annoying "This family's 8 year old child who was about to go through a major surgery and kept crying that she was hungry so they pitied her and gave her food, she then had a heart attack in the surgery. They're so stupid 😒" girl they didn't know that could happen or why it happens. it takes so little time to explain to them that will happen instead of telling them "no food" with no explanation 10 times
"Before surgery, your body’s reflexes that protect your airway are relaxed by anesthesia. If there’s food or liquid in your stomach, it will near certainly come back up and go into your lungs, which can cause choking, a severe lung / heart infection or even a heart attack. That’s called aspiration, and it is life-threatening. It's hard, but it's only a single day to prevent near certain death. Not eating or drinking beforehand massively lowers the risk and helps prevent these life threatening situations under anesthesia." <- TIP: patients have brains which allows them to receive information just like you
I have four kids. I’ve had one or another of them need some kind of surgical procedure that requires anesthesia four or five times over the past 15 years.
This Tumblr post is the first time someone has explained to me *why* I couldn’t feed them before those instances.
I’m not stupid. I understood that just fine. Hell, my kids would have understood that just fine. But no one bothered to tell us.
i did know this before having kids (i have six). we have a kid that's needed multiple procedures requiring anesthesia. and every single time, i am asked multiple times if i'm sure he was not given any food or water after a certain point.
every single time i have had to say, "i understand that if he had food or water, he could aspirate it into his lungs under anesthesia. i am not lying to you." THEN someone would make a little note and i would stop being repeatedly asked.
not a single time was that risk explained to me. the only reason it came up was because i already knew. i still don't understand why it isn't standard pre-op counseling or pre-op check information, when me as a parent acknowledging the actual risk also put THE MEDICAL STAFF at ease because i conveyed that i had informed understanding as reason to not lie about giving my kid food.
"maybe some people will get nervous and refuse surgery" okay so they need more counseling about risks and anxiety, not less information in a way that actually does endanger their child or themselves!
