Character dynamics! Gush/rant/ramble about them here! Whether they're platonic, familiar, romantic, whatever (just keep everything family-friendly of course)

Which ones do you love? Which ones do you hate? Which oddly specific ones do you not see often enough, but wish you did? Etc, etc...

I'll go first by talking about some of my favorites:

--grumpy/jaded old person & energetic child who won't leave them alone. At first the grumpy one is annoyed by the child's presence, but they soon warm up to each other and consider each other family. Bonus points if the child has a sad or traumatic backstory. Think Scratch and Molly McGee, Ballister Boldheart and Nimona, etc.

--two people who are crazy and evil when apart, but really sweet and loving around each other.

--character(s) who are doomed by the narrative but they just say "nuh uh." An example is Skid and Pump from Spooky Month, who are constantly put into dangerous situations but are so oblivious to the danger that they just avoid it entirely

--really powerful being x Just Some Guy™️

--twins. like just in general, there's so many potential dynamics

--character who looks like a cinnamon roll, could actually kill you & character who looks like they could kill you, is actually a cinnamon roll


Well that's all i can think of for now. how about you, YWSers?
