What do your leads have the other characters saved as in their phones? What image would they save of them? What's their screensaver?

What? Alicia has her little brother saved as nice things on her phone lol. Cocoa is saved as...well "Cocoa" in Dominic's phone, which he uses as a term of endearment. Her real name is Nichole.

LOL the dynamic between this family is so incredible that Ynda would know that Toji isn't being a little shit about it, even though that's what she, and so many others, call him from time to time. They all love each other a great deal, and no jabs are meant to be insulting. Still, big brothers do enjoy messing with their little sisters just for the hell of it.

Leyelle 2024-06-03 21:09:48 UTC #27

Well this is certainly often true and fine as long as they aren't intentionally upsetting each other. Dominic's sisters tease him jokingly a lot, but he's too sweet to tease them much.

Indeed. It was important to me that this family be close as it plays a pivotal role in the story, especially when it comes to Toji and Natsu's relationship. I think it also stems from the fact that I'm not close with my family and I wanted to create one that I would love to be a part of.

Aaaand of course the dynamic between Toji and Hero is also a big plot point. They love each other, but communication is one thing they just can't do.

Well, this can definitely be a real problem, even when you care a lot. I think all the families I write have really different dynamics. Some are really wholesome and would literally risk their lives for each other, others are mixed bags, some are absolutely horrible and the leads have no one in their family to count on or rely on. But I think family dynamics can be one of the most interesting parts of a lot of stories and really effect the way people interact with every one around them

Ozwald´s phone

he has on his screen saver a carousel with three pictures; one of Niko, Donna, and himself at the arcade photo booth, one of a sunset over a lake, and one of a drawing he made of himself and his family, saved on his phone are the following numbers

Higen: saved as Big Guy - Picture - Higen smileing
Donna: saved as Don-Don - Picture- posing giving queen
Niko: Saved as Señor Niko del la Cruz - Picture - Smiling and waving
Work: Saved as Emergency NOW! - Picture - the logo of his job

Higen´s Phone

His screen saver is a picture he took when he figured out how to use his phone camera (he doesn't do well with technology) as soon as he found out how to take pictures he grabbed Ozwald and took a picture of the two of them which he kept as his screen saver. his contacts are saved as:

Ozwald: Ozwald Voloro - my BFF
Donna: Donna Parker
Niko: Niko de la Cruz
Carter: ... Marten
Work: Answer immediately!!!

he hasn't figured out how to put pictures on his contacts

binahwrites 2024-06-11 18:38:15 UTC #32

wait is Euphridia a literal goddess?

allisoncandraw 2024-06-11 19:27:20 UTC #36

Bobbie: Would have everyone's names with emojis next to them. His lock screen would probably be his favorite football or basketball team's logo

David: He would have everyone's plain, normal names in his phone. His lock screen would be a selfie of him and Bobbie

R.J.: He's the type to have goofy names in his phone. Like having his mother as "Birth Giver", stuff like that his lock screen would be an image from whatever video game hes currently obsessed with

euphridia 2024-06-11 19:34:58 UTC #37

[Portrait is probably only slightly embellished... probably.]

Leyelle 2024-06-11 23:07:14 UTC #38

Yo, saving your mom in you phone as birth giver gon' get you smacked bruh

Leyelle 2024-06-11 23:07:40 UTC #39

Wait so is she or not tho?

euphridia 2024-06-11 23:26:29 UTC #40

Haha— more inclusive term would be content creator (but yes in the story she is both author and goddess..)

Leyelle 2024-06-11 23:30:23 UTC #41

Oh wait you wrote yourself into the story?

euphridia 2024-06-11 23:34:24 UTC #42

About Euphridia:

Eura "Euphridia" Adams is the content creator of The Last Rae of Hope. As a character in the novel, she is the original writer of the serialized novel of the same name and granddaughter of President Abrams, owner and operator of Cooperative Universal Publishing.

In real life, Euphridia is a completely made-up pen name with no real meaning, though the creator thought it sounded "quite fancy, like the name of a goddess" and sometimes goes by "Euphy" or "Euphie" for short.

(In other words, I hope I'm a more decent sentient being than the character in the story.)

Leyelle 2024-06-11 23:40:41 UTC #43

Oh, so your character has a goddess complex XD?

Leyelle 2024-06-18 23:40:04 UTC #44

Honey's phone is chaotic:

Cocoa is saved as "Cupcake." She'd have Cocoa's picture saved as this person's brown girl Power Puff girl fan art she found online but if she was to save a real picture of Cocoa it would be one of her and Cocoa together all dressed up for a night out on the town, and posing like absolute queens.

Dominic is saved as Thorin, and his picture would be saved as one of his photos off Instagram with him flexing but with a beard edited onto his face.

Ben is saved as "Bunny Rabbit" his picture would totally be "Benjamin Bunny" from The Peter Rabbit Movie

Her parents are saved as 'mom' and 'dad' and they're pictures would probably be the first pictures of them she could get her hands on, most likely one of her mom standing in front of the convenience store counter kind of posing because Dominic asked her to pose for a picture, and her dad's picture would be one from his 50th birthday.
