Relentlessly razz your own characters

Anyone else think it's weird that as 4 feet nine inches tall herself Alicia still calls Kattar (at 5'9) a little creep?

Kat is lying propped up against the couch pillows playing on his Gameboy in a state of absolute zombification when I open the front door.

It takes a second for his eyes to unglue themselves from the screen, his gaze seeming to move through water as he glances up at me. Then his eyebrows knit together, his expression a canvas of mingled horror and disgust in mild shades of disbelief.

“Nu-uh…”

I can’t help but start laughing.

“Is that a plaid tee-shirt dress? Where do you even find this stuff? Why did you change out of the black dress?”

“Just wanted to,” I say teasingly, pushing my hair back. “Why? Why are you so stuck on the black one anyway?”

He manages to keep his expression impassive and disinterested, as he says flatly, “When you only have two tolerable dresses in your entire wardrobe, I think it’s only natural for me to try to mitigate the suffering you inflict on my eyes.”

Hmm.

Not even the faintest vestige of embarrassment, color, or discomfiture shows on his face, and for some strange reason that bugs me - like an insistent light drizzle drumming on my psyche at 100 bpm.

What is with you, you little creep?

Essence used the word 'trounce' too much.

My hearing starts to feel muddled, and I resist the urge to rest my head on the desk, trying to ignore the migraine until I have time to let it trounce me.

My siblings decided to start this, so why not?

Kattar's nose is so pointy when he runs into a tree the sap runs. Kattar's nose is so pointy mosquitos look at him sideways thinking he's going to steal their gig. Kattar's nose is so pointy when he floats on his back people think there's a shark in the water. Kattar's noise is so pointy when he turns his head cars change directions. Kattar's nose is so pointy when he sneezes it always points do north. Kattar's nose is so pointy he can use it to sew cross stitch. Kattar's nose is so pointy when he uses a tissue it turns into confetti. Kattar's nose is so pointy when he shakes his head you can hear it cut the air. Kattar's nose is so pointy Mrs. Moon needed shoulder pads to burp him as a baby. Kattar's nose is so pointy he doesn't need a hole puncher. Kattar's nose is so pointy when he kisses Alicia it's dangerous for either one of them to flinch. Kattar's nose is so pointy he can cross his eyes and see what's on both sides of it. Kattar's nose is so pointy he'd have to have it registered if he moved to Japan. Kattar's nose is so pointy he once got in trouble for carrying a blade over two inches.

So yeah, you can thank my siblings for that.

Kattar occasionally 'blue blood codes' himself, like right here for instance:

“My mother just picked up and bought a new house when she didn’t want to worry about clearing out the things she didn’t want to keep around,” Kattar says unexpectedly. And I'm not sure who exactly he’s talking to, as he stares into his lemonade again, swirling the straw, “We legitimately parted with our apartment and everything in it, bringing nothing but our clothes and my mother’s computer.”

Essence considers herself a knowledgeable adult, but does not know the children have sticky hands. She's going to learn it the hard way.

Let's just talk about how impossible a kiss will be with this height gap unless he physically picks Texas up

This is just my editor razzing me.

"Only you write characters that are almost exact opposites and wonder 'but what if these characters are too similar?' This little piggy went to the market, this little piggy stayed home."

Which ironically is basically the exact difference between Mrs. Moon and Mrs. George who I was worried would appear too similar to my readers lol.

My boy Finn has no rizz. He is so bad at flirting and is lucky he has a good personality past it.

Alicia looks like an 18 inch doll had a kid with a curvy vase

Okay, Chili has some weird hobbies, like painting his cat. Currently, he's painting a duck on her stomach. Is this a sign of a mental breakdown. Probably. he's already got carpel tunnel but refuses to give his hands a break
