I don't want to spam you guys but I found this thing here (click) and it is LITERALLY THE MOST HELPFULL THING ADFGH
I have this thing with character flaws where I agonize over them because I want good characters- relatable ones and all that stuff. Kesle in particular because I love her so much and she's my bby but 'shyness' is a thing a lot of infamously terrible characters have and an incorrectly portrayed or ridiculous mary-sue type character ("oh noes I am sho shy my sempai i can never talk to you oh noeeessss") is not a character I want to have, or want people to see Kesle as.
BUT THIS THING IS SUPER COOL BECAUSE IT'S A LIST OF 'GOOD' CHARACTER TRAITS WITH THEIR NOT SO GOOD COUNTERPARTS AHHH I HAVE BEEN LOOKING FOR THIS
So for example (Kesle):
-Adaptable – used to traveling from situation to situation; may not be able to fully adapt/live in a permanent situation
-Careful – paranoid
-Empathetic – bleeding heart; try to humanize everything
-Gentle – patronizing; over-forgiving; naïve
-Patient – waits too long; inactive; passive
-Reserved – bottles up feelings; unsociable; difficult to understand; reluctant to tell secrets
-Tender – cannot make hard choices; bleeding heart; unwilling to injure or hurt others
So now I don't feel like Kesle is too sweet or loveable- she has some stuff to fix. Namely being a big wibble about everything.
I love your guys' characters- they're all so thought-out and wonderfully portrayed but I really wanted someone to share this with SO HERE YOU GO SOMERSET
This has been another weird Cogs rant.
