    Keep in mind that [Lara]'s someone intensely fearful of commitment, though she will love someone freely. That's why she's so comfortable in her friendship with Hatman - all of the love and comfort with none of the pressure, because he's not interested in anything deeper than that.


That's a feature that is storyworthy.


    Quote:
    I use that example purposefully because friendships are so comfortable for her that the concept of falling for someone hard is foreign to her. That entire scenario is terrifying to her, and she'll probably be repelled by it instead. She sees herself as meeting someone, becoming friends, and that growing into something closer.


It's good that she has different and distinctive responses to your other main characters.

      The most fun part of [Faite], though, is figuring out how to motivate her to do something. She is generally unwilling to get involved in most anything because she has been around long enough to feel that it's futile.


Faite's another visitor to the Parodyverse, though, right? So she's another tourist who got sucked in (as have many other of our cast, including Visionary, Trickshot, and Amazing Guy).


    Quote:
    If it helps, a lot of the time Faite decides that large scale direct intervention is overkill, and instead tries shrinking the playing field - confronting the cause directly. Giving them a small show of power, and forcing them to make a choice.


The devil is in the details.


    Quote:
    She did that in a probably-unpublished story when she faced the Moderator and warned him to stop damaging the universe. Then, rather than stop him directly, she started messing with his plans.


I know I wrote a lot of it, but I'm really, really fuzzy about that story now.
