This one's for the scenes with multiple characters, and you're not sure how to keep everyone involved.
Writing group scenes is chaos. Someone’s talking, someone’s interrupting, someone’s zoning out thinking about breadsticks. And if you’re not careful, half your cast fades into the background like NPCs in a video game. I used to struggle with this so much—my characters would just exist in the scene without actually affecting it. But here’s what I've learned and have started implementing:
Not their literal job—like, not everyone needs to be solving a crime or casting spells. I mean: Why are they in this moment? What’s their role in the conversation?
My favourite examples are:
The Driver: Moves the convo forward. They have an agenda, they’re pushing the action.
The Instigator: Pokes the bear. Asks the messy questions. Stirring the pot like a chef on a mission.
The Voice of Reason: "Guys, maybe we don’t commit arson today?"
The Distracted One: Completely in their own world. Tuning out, doodling on a napkin, thinking about their ex.
The Observer: Not saying much, but noticing everything. (Quiet characters still have presence!)
The Wild Card: Who knows what they’ll do? Certainly not them. Probably about to make things worse.
If a character has no function, they’ll disappear. Give them something—even if it’s just a side comment, a reaction, or stealing fries off someone’s plate. Keep them interesting, and your readers will stay interested too.
I really wish I got more into Epic when I was still doing Cobra Kai The (Hypothetical) Musical because I just found out Legendary exists and that’s like? PERFECT for Miguel.
And also We’ll be Fine as a Johnny and Miguel song fits like a fucking puzzle piece.
Maybe also Little Wolf over the Cafeteria fight scene in season 1.
This is such a banger 🗣️🔥🔥‼️‼️‼️
I hope everyone enjoys the edition❤️❤️ scp: ckscpnynnie .
Alright, so, I know I said I was going to rewrite Stayed Gone for two descendants characters, however, I've changed my mind, because Stayed Gone is a VERY hard song to rewrite. So, instead, I'm giving you a....
DESCENDANTS-HELLUVA REWRITE
Honestly, Descendants and Helluva have more similarities than Descendants and Hazbin now that I think about it. Anyways, yeah, Descendants-Helluva Rewrite coming probably in the next hour or two.
I'll give you a hint as to what character and song, both the character I'm rewriting it for and the character who originally sung it are associated with blue.
Eli’s getting ‘hawk tuah’d to death
If Cobra Kai took place in 2024 would the teen characters use brainrot terms (either unironically or ironically) bc I think they would
SEASON 6 P3 SPOILERS
Kreese and Silver’s death was tense all up until the moment where Silver was like”NOOO” and Kreese was like “Mercy”, that just made me giggle and erased all form of tension in it.
Audrey was really gagging everybody in D3.
“What are you doing with the scepter?”
“I wanted them so I took them, you of all people should understand that.”
Gagged.
“Wait, Audrey! Don’t use that!”
“What? I thought you liked spells.”
Gagged.
“Did someone curse you? Just tell me and I’ll-“
“What? You’ll marry them?”
Gagged.
I know the opinion of Audrey in the Descendants fandom is split, but I honestly love her and her villain arc was awesome.
I have this OC I want to give a visual representation but I can't draw and no character creators have enough options to accurately depict him
I let it go long, I let you stray too far
Now I know, now I know, now I know exactly what you are
Na-na-na-na-na-na, a motherfucker
Na-na-na-na-na-na, a motherfucker
I don't think you meant to hurt me
'Cause I don't think it meant a thing at all
At all, at all, at all
At all, at all, at all
At all, at all, to you
Na na na, na na, na
The motherfucker
Na na na, na na, na
The motherfucker
I never saw your scars
I never knew your pain
Now I know, now I know
Now I know we’ll never be the same
But I, I keep on waiting
Waiting to miss you less than I do
And I do, oh, I do, yes I still do miss you
But maybe it's all on me
Dismissing every sigh and every glance and every turn
No, no, no, he's a motherfucker
Maybe there's something here for us to glean
For you to teach and me to try and learn
No, no, no, he's a motherfucker
'Cause you may never change, but I can’t help but yearn
What if I’d been by your side?
What if I’d noticed the signs?
What if we just don’t align?
All this what if, what if, what if, what if, what if, what if
Why, why, why, why why why, makes me BURN!
I don't think you meant to hurt me
'Cause I don't think it meant a thing at all!
Well, did it?
No, not at all
At all, at all, at all
Didn't mean a, didn't mean a
At all, at all, at all
Didn't mean a, didn't mean a
At all, at all to you
Na na na, na na, na
The motherfucker
Na na na, na na, na
The motherfucker
Na na na, na na, na
The motherfucker...
You must remember, it was the 1980s, you were a devil worshipper if you had freckles
you mean to tell me THIS is the guy Hawkin's was CONVINCED was a devil worshipper and a cold blooded killer???
i beg your finest pardon, he's so babygirl
In too many family-based sitcoms do the writers, in an effort to make the parents cooky and funny, make them bad parents, ranging from 'okay, that's a little questionable' to 'oh my god, I'm want to adopt your child'
