#Soafsoap rambles

Was it hard/complicated to come up with more or less universal archetype of character, that would be paired with different CoD men? Did you 'set the rules of the game' from the very start (eg ' in every route, Mini will have same preferences in civilian attires')? Or did it evolve with every iteration of every story?

I am sorry took me so long to get to this ask Hello my lovely Moot *big big hug*

To be honest with you? all I had right from the beginning of Mini was only two things. ( and thanks to @saltofmercury again for giving birth to her :P ) 1) Soap's (slightly annoying) younger sister. 2) Civillian that works in healthwork field. I never really thought beyond anything of those two point at the beginning. but as my interest in other character expands.. the background story slights to alter, bending the rules slightly in each universe makes it more interesting and easier to let the story evolve. one universe she is civilian, another she would be in military. I change it accordingly to the men she is paired with, making the situation bit more realistic. eg: first meeting with the Los Vaqeuros men, while I would love to do a "oopsie a civvie runs into the cartel war' scenario, it just gets bit too cheesy in my mind ( it is possible but i will so ruin it ) and I don't want to write it as a damsel in distress scenario, so them starting off as "work colleagues" seems more natural ( well. Rudy fell in love at the first meeting with Mini/reader but... they didn't jump straight into it...) and as for the 141 men, it was easier to write Mini as Civilian, as her connection to the men through Soap ( brother's workmates. )

but one thing that is consistant is Mini's relationship with Soap. I just love writing the sibling dynamics and bond between these two. the overprotective brother, Mini's admiration towards Soap being the big brother that can do everything.

Thank you for your ask!
