This one's for the scenes with multiple characters, and you're not sure how to keep everyone involved.
Writing group scenes is chaos. Someone’s talking, someone’s interrupting, someone’s zoning out thinking about breadsticks. And if you’re not careful, half your cast fades into the background like NPCs in a video game. I used to struggle with this so much—my characters would just exist in the scene without actually affecting it. But here’s what I've learned and have started implementing:
Not their literal job—like, not everyone needs to be solving a crime or casting spells. I mean: Why are they in this moment? What’s their role in the conversation?
My favourite examples are:
The Driver: Moves the convo forward. They have an agenda, they’re pushing the action.
The Instigator: Pokes the bear. Asks the messy questions. Stirring the pot like a chef on a mission.
The Voice of Reason: "Guys, maybe we don’t commit arson today?"
The Distracted One: Completely in their own world. Tuning out, doodling on a napkin, thinking about their ex.
The Observer: Not saying much, but noticing everything. (Quiet characters still have presence!)
The Wild Card: Who knows what they’ll do? Certainly not them. Probably about to make things worse.
If a character has no function, they’ll disappear. Give them something—even if it’s just a side comment, a reaction, or stealing fries off someone’s plate. Keep them interesting, and your readers will stay interested too.

I want a disastrous and chaotic found family with Hero x Villain:
An adult Hero who has underlying traumas that they refuse to admit and acknowledge. They are so tried from fighting. They literally running on coffee, fear, and stress. Probably have white hairs and eye bags.
The small group of sidekicks who wants to be trains as an heroes but too chaotic and “share a single braincell” . Trying fight the villains but they only known how to self-defend themselves from Hero’s teaching because Hero doesn’t want them to suffer from a hero job. Hero has to stop them from going in danger or acting like an heroes. Probably calls Hero, “mom” and villain “dad”.
An adult Villain who has strong mortal code against children. They were suspect that Hero is putting these Sidekicks in danger, but only to realize that Sidekicks aren’t actually sidekicks and Hero is trying to protect them. Going easy on the kids during the fight before Hero drag them away from the fight. Probably falls in love with Hero.
I 100% understand why people are drawing comparisons between Mal/Evie and Chloe/Red but think about it. A VK realising they aren't as evil as everyone thinks and an AK realising they aren't as good as everyone thinks? That IS Ben & Mal.

I'm glad that people are still having fun on tumblr even after we found out about the frightening ghoul that reblogs posts but doesn't say anything
