Thire and Pain are best friends. I have no idea what wild story Thorn is telling here to have these reactions.
Nautolan feet v2.0
I can’t find it now, but I really didn’t like my previous attempt to draw decent swimming feet for them in 2019, so here’s version 2: T-Rex frog edition.
There ARE shoes for Nautolans, but most prefer to go without or with simple foot wraps. And whether or not they blunt their claws is up to personal preference, but it’s more common for off-world Nautolans to do so.
This is cute. And soft
GenKaze headcanons??
<3 I never knew I needed this ship until now <3
Genda x Kazemaru
> okay bruh, bruh. the best thing about this pairing is that both of them can’t fucking believe that they’re dating the other. They live in this constant state of ‘oh my god you’re so beautiful and amazing and hot and asdfjksl how is it that someone like you likes me’
> Both of them might be weak for one another, but Genda is most definitely the weakest for Kazemaru. Sometimes he just catches himself staring at Kazemaru during practice and he’s like ‘oh uhhhh shit’ and blushes like mad
> Teikoku’s goalie had already noticed Kazemaru during the very first game they played against Raimon. Not because he was oh so impressed by his abilities but he was literally like ‘damn he cute’
> He felt blessed af when he found out Kazemaru was their reinforcement member from the soccer committee but also became really self conscious out of nowhere
> Kazemaru had also secretly admired Genda for a while because he thought he was freaking badass and he had always had a weak spot for goalies
> PDA isn’t really their thing but they don’t mind because they’d much rather be intimate in private. Both of them aren’t a fan of showing such a side of themselves to friends and others
So I am not the biggest fan of those ten page character sheets that include 100 questions like “What’s their favourite ice cream?”. Don’t get me wrong: If those help you with your writing, more power to you! Do what works for you. But I tend to discover all the little details of a character while writing. I only need the fundamental things. Maybe this works for you too!
The Basics
Name: including all nicknames, titles, etc.
Gender
Age
Role in the Narrative
Physical Description: focus on defining features
GMC (If you want to learn more about the concept, check out this post.)
Internal Goal
Internal Motivation
Internal Conflict
External Goal
External Motivation
External Conflict
Personality
Short characterization: internal personality and external behavior
Their biggest failure/issue/flaw: and how it impacts their life/personality/behavior
Backstory: and its consequences, such as triggers
Speech pattern: at least three speech marks that emphasize their personality (if you want to learn more about speech patterns, check out this post)
Behaviour pattern: at least three habits that emphasize their personality
Character Arc: where do they start, how do they change, where do they end?
That’s it! Hope this gave you some pointers on how to start out with character creation.
Have fun writing!
Star Wars AU where everything is the same except Anakin converses with himself when he’s about to do something dark-sidey like Gollum from Lord of the Rings.
Just—
Imagine—
Anakin, squatting on the floor while rubbing hands together: The Jedi are wicked, tricksy, false!
Anakin, in softer voice: No, not Master! Not Obi-Wan!
Anakin, growling and getting spit everywhere: Yes, precious… false! Obi-Wan will cheat you, hurt you, lie!
Anakin, whimpering: But Obi-Wan is my friend!
Anakin, growling again: You don’t have any friends! Nobody likes you!
Obi-Wan, yelling in exasperation from the other room: Anakin, dear, I promise I’m not trying to trick you, I just want to know what you want for dinner tonight!
