Sometimes progressing through your writing journey means learning to write one way very, very well so you can never write that way ever again.

Sometimes it means cutting out every adjective and extra clause and passive sentence until your prose is so active it’s lost all voice, so that when you add the voice back in your new prose is both poetic and clean.

Sometimes it means cutting down your first two stories to the bare bones of its plot so that the inconsequential and slower scenes you decide to include in your third book have the vibrancy and life you learned while creating those faster paced stories.

Sometimes it also means you do work that feels like it went nowhere. But that’s never true. However your writing journey progresses is still progress.

Take heart in the skills that you’ve built, and keep writing <3

yandere nobuyuki

Would you be able to give a headcanon or write something about Nobuyuki's yandere side? Like his reaction if MC said another man's name in bed or if she wasn't in love with him and tried to leave? I know voltage would never show something so dark but I'm curious to know just how "dark" you think Nobuyuki would get. You don't have to do this if you feel uncomfortable of course! Thank you in advance. :)

I am all about yanderes recently. Fuck yeah. I’m going to put this under a cut because it might disturb some people, maybe…? Warnings for death, forced isolation, manipulation, possessiveness… General yandere stuff.

Actually

The question I get the most is how I write characters that feel like real people. 

Generally when I’m designing a human being, I deconstruct them into 7 major categories:

1. Primary Drive 2. Fear: Major and Secondary 3. Physical Desires 4. Style of self expression 5. How they express affection 6. What controls them (what they are weak for) 7. What part of them will change.

1. Primary Drive: This is generally related to the plot. What are their plot related goals? How are they pulling the plot forward? how do they make decisions? What do they think they’re doing and how do they justify doing it. 2. Fear: First, what is their deep fear? Abandonment? being consumed by power? etc. Second: tiny fears. Spiders. someone licking their neck. Small things that bother them. At least 4. 3. Physical desires. How they feel about touch. What is their perceived sexual/romantic orientation. Do their physical desires match up with their psychological desires.

4. Style of self expression: How they talk. Are they shy? Do they like to joke around and if so, how? Are they anxious or confident internally and how do they express that externally. What do words mean to them? More or less than actions? Does their socioeconomic background affect the way they present themselves socially?  5. How they express affection: Do they express affection through actions or words. Is expressing affection easy for them or not. How quickly do they open up to someone they like. Does their affection match up with their physical desires. how does the way they show their friends that they love them differ from how they show a potential love interest that they love them. is affection something they struggle with?

6. What controls them (what they are weak for): what are they almost entirely helpless against. What is something that influences them regardless of their own moral code. What– if driven to the end of the wire— would they reject sacrificing. What/who would they cut off their own finger for.  What would they kill for, if pushed. What makes them want to curl up and never go outside again from pain. What makes them sink to their knees from weakness or relief. What would make them weep tears of joy regardless where they were and who they were in front of. 

7. WHAT PART OF THEM WILL CHANGE: people develop over time. At least two of the above six categories will be altered by the storyline–either to an extreme or whittled down to nothing. When a person experiences trauma, their primary fear may change, or how they express affection may change, etc. By the time your book is over, they should have developed. And its important to decide which parts of them will be the ones that slowly get altered so you can work on monitoring it as you write. making it congruent with the plot instead of just a reaction to the plot. 

That’s it.

But most of all, you have to treat this like you’re developing a human being. Not a “character” a living breathing person. When you talk, you use their voice. If you want them to say something and it doesn’t seem like (based on the seven characteristics above) that they would say it, what would they say instead?

If they must do something that’s forced by the plot, that they wouldn’t do based on their seven options, they can still do the thing, but how would they feel internally about doing it?

How do their seven characteristics meet/ meld with someone else’s seven and how will they change each other?

Once you can come up with all the answers to all of these questions, you begin to know your character like you’d know one of your friends. When you can place them in any AU and know how they would react.

They start to breathe.

There are parents who got stuck in the "denial" stage and couldn't face their kids and accept.

I really hate it when parents of autistic kids use phrases like “I know they’re in there.” Bitch they’re right in front of you! You haven’t lost them! They’re not locked away like a final boss in a video game!! This is your child As Is! Love them for who they are not what you wish they would be! Fuck!

??

Wait, isn’t this dragon a castle item last BE?

Oh my, Nobuyuki’s ES is such a satisfying roller coaster, isn’t it? I love it! I love it so much. It’s fast but it’s meaty and I daresay, believable, and it’s all thanks to the way MC is written. She’s so good here. I LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS MC!

And if I have to pinpoint the moment Nobuyuki falls in love with her. 

It’s this moment.

Also, I am fistpumping when this is her reaction to Nobuyuki’s sudden proposition.

Nobuyuki MC, YOU ROCK!

Must stop PLAYING!😨😨
