Me, thinking about Valerie and Nessa's lore: "okay, they're not doing baad! Most their trauma came from mid to late teenagehood due to the gang being formed, so they had a normal childhood. They would be going around doing stupid things kids do with no supervision, so they actually had fun as kids... They have an older brother who usually watches them when their parents can't. They have a loving family that isn't abusive, loves them very much and supports their interests! Quite different from my other OC's..."

Me, actually writing the lore: "hmm, 'kay, let's add a bit of family drama, because no family is perfect and it could help her character arc. Hah, y'know what would be funny? If Valerie's mum constantly sounds angry and her dad is chill. Her mum is harsh and loud but loving, her dad is quiet and timid but supportive. Hmm, this would clash a bit with their kids' personalities, to some extent, which is realistic..."

Me, reading the current draft: "oh, they're neglectful!"

#just something funny i noticed #not funny haha #but funny as in “oh i didnt expect that #i actually didnt want to give them family drama #but ooops #i did it again #old habits die hard #apparently #niniago oc #ninjaggo oc valerie akagawa #but honestly i think im gonna keep it like this #because again no family is perfect and i think its realistic in a good way #maybe its something it takes a while for her to notice #and when she does she doesn't want to repeat the pattern #which she doesn't she's quite over protective of her family
