#AwsomeCharacters
What is something about themselves that your character is proud of?
Something big or small that they purely like about themself, with no conflicted feelings or hesitation?
Are they right to feel that way?

Both are oposite flavors of neurodivergent too, though I literally only noticed that about Luiza writing this XD
It's Aromantic Visibility Day!
Please make your aromantic characters visible for me! Tell me a bit about them!
Where do they fall on the aromantic spectrum?

The story necessitates Roderika and Arlo leaving home while Tala and Henet stay behind to hold down the fort
Mary *thinks* she’s returning home over the course of the story.
Eventually everyone meets up in Megiddo and they aren’t going to be home for a long time after.

I am currently on a long drive, will check in when I can!
While I am gone: how far is your character from home in their story?
Do they travel far, or mostly stick around the same area? Do they return, after?

Roderika, helps, is chipper about it.
Tala, helps, is terse but polite about it.
Arlo, helps, is calm and soothing about it.
Henet, magically freezes the fruit in the air, is snarky about it.
Mary, helps, is profusely apologetic, this will haunt the rest of her week.
We haven't done a hypothetical in a bit!
So: Your character is in a store when someone bumps into them, spilling their own fruit everywhere.
Does your character: Get mad? Help them clean up? Steal a piece? Other?

Brendan McKarthy...is often overshadowed by his charismatic brother, but he's a conniver and fiercely loyal. I know it's two things but they often work hand in hand. 😉

Surprising absolutely no one, it’s Mary!!!
Sweeter than frosting and just the kindest soul you could imagine. Self away about it for sure, and willing to recognize when solutions she’d prefer are out of reach, but always going to advocate them.

At first, Ollie thought Vince was just "some weird guy." He had no idea this weird guy was going to be the catalyst that changed his life lol.
Tell me a bit about the first time your character met someone important to them.
This could be a close friend, love interest, mentor, etc.
Did they like each other right away? Did they warm over time?

It is April Fool's Day, but I would never try to trick any of you!
Instead, tell me about a time your character felt like a fool!
Was it their own fault, or another's? How did they respond?

Gabe: probably makes a salad that everyone will like. Something simple.
Claire: absolutely bakes cupcakes for everyone.
Heart: buys a box of nice cookies from a bakery.
Agnes: something hearty that feeds like 20 people.
Michael: bags of chips. A pack of soda. He gets lost.
Your characters are all meeting for a picnic and everyone brought a dish!
What is everyone bringing and how balanced is the meal if they didn't coordinate?

Roderika: always looking forward to the next exciting thing
Tala: doesn’t think much this sort of thing
Arlo: the most in the moment dude possible
Henet: looking forward to their next scheme
Mary: stuck in and tortured by the past
#CharacterWriting #WriteSky
What's your character's view on enjoying a moment?
Do they savor it, wishing it could last forever? Enjoy it but still look to the future?
Or are they fixated on the past/future too much to enjoy it at all?

Tala: loves a good do nothing day
Arlo: exercises when bored
Henet: at their most dangerous when bored
Mary: was raised in “idle hands are the devils playground.” Boredom scares her.
#AwsomeCharacters
How does your character handle boredom/idleness?
Do they enjoy a lazy day doing nothing? Do they need it, sometimes? Or do they always want to be doing someone, and idleness makes them restless and unsettled?
