Tips to Write Best Friends- Authoring advice 💕

There are many types of best friends. Some besties are complete opposites, others would have hated each other’s guts without their experiences together. Some are childhood buddies, and some met much later in life. But each one has similarities and are important.

For me, writing the relationship between two characters is the best part of writing, but for others… it may be difficult.So here are some tips!

Good Moments

Each friendship should have a few good moments in the book. This helps show why their friends and how their relationship works, also provides some clarity on their personalities.

The moments could be bantering between one another. Perhaps teasing, or helping the other cope. It could be anything that isn’t negative. They could be doing an activity together, even if it’s silent. They could be having a meaningful conversation; this is useful for explaining exposition to readers as well 😉. 

But be careful. You can’t just be sprouting meaningful conversations out of nowhere.It’s best to give hints at their relationship in the first or second chapter you meet them. Build the base of their bond.

The good moments should be consistent with their personalities or situation. Character A maybe should not be teasing their bestie a chapter after their dad died. 

Arguments

Disagreements between friends are inevitable. Its bound to happen, therefor conflicts are needed in your story. Your characters are people, and have their own opinions. And those opinions are not identical to their companion’s.

But, unless there’s a good reason and its believable, they should always make up. You chose how to do this, their your characters.

Reading Each Other's Mind

I do not mean literally. And it may not be constant, but best friends (especially if they knew each other for years) should be able to predict each other’s emotions, actions (some if not most of them), and reactions. These buddies should know when not to cross the line, (of course people always make mistakes so take that into account.).

Maybe the besties know each other so well they can synchronize. I am thinking of a team, fighting on the battlefield, fortelling eachothers moves and working together. This can also work for sports teams, charades, and attempting to not to die.

Relationship Development

This does not go for everyone. Some people and their relationships don’t change. But growth never hurts, and can in fact help your story to have some development. 

Example: say if character A realizes she does not appreciate character B, in some form. This changes their relationship because now character A listens to character B’s thoughts.

People and their bonds change. They grow and evolve, so it’s realistic to have growth to you story.

This is all I got! Thank you for reading, and have a FANTASTIC DAY! I’m posting soon!

So I know it can be hard to find aroace Alastor and Alastor/ platonic relationships content. But I have put together a list of Al bonding with the others platonically. (All are on AO3)

Escaped By A Hair by PurpleArrowandLeather

Alastor's retreat to lick his wounds nearly costs him his life. Thankfully, Charlie is worried enough to go looking for him.

Post Season One

Mother, Dearest by WritingSoupBowl

In Episode 6 instead of having a meeting Adam tries to kill Charlie and Vaggie. Trying to escape, they run into Al's mother.

You've Got A Face for Radio by ckret12

This one is specifically about how Alastor is Aroace and I love it.

"He's never wanted sex. He's never wanted love. He's never seen a problem with this.

It's taken about a century, but he's pleasantly surprised to discover that the rest of the world is finally starting to catch up with his perspective."

Staff Infection by ItAllStartedWithANightFuryLovingGirl

This one is adorable. Everyone gets sick and Al won't admit he needs rest.

To Make A Skirt by another_athena

This has to be one of my favorites in this list and it's longer. It focuses on Al and Angel a lot. It's incredibly clear that Alastor is Aroace in this one and I love it. Also boys wearing feminine clothes together. It's just adorable and it has some angst.

In sum: Angel is bored so Al teaches him how to sew.

(I love touch-averse Alastor so much)

Good Friends To the Second End by Neo_followthe whiterabbit

More platonic Al and Angel. It has a coming out scene with Al too and that's pretty good.

I love these two being friends.

Okay, those are all for now but I was wondering if anyone had any like these? I love reading stuff like these
