Congratulations man! That's so good, how does it feel to be free?

I'm currently writing my exams so things are going... Ehhhh >_<. But I'm almost done. And yeah, privacy is hella important, I hope that your friend starts to feel better though.

I'm extremely particular with tropes so... Yeah. And I probably should have specified on the "bad boy with evil father" stuff - it's that whole trope where the dude is so edgy and brooding, and he's always the main love interest but he's borderline abusive. And he happens to have an evil dad. If memory serves, Ash does not fall under this! What I would point out as an example of this trope would be Jace from Cassandra Clare's books, from what I've seen the man's an absolute asshat. I'm sorry that I'm bashing these books so much, there's too much incest and toxic relationships so I cannot get behind them. (I believe that the concept of her world is very interesting though - it's just a shame that she focused all her energy on romance drama, love triangles and incest.)

What I like about FLVS is that the lovers aren't the partners. Feray and Linnea are an item but he was partnered with his other teammate, and I kinda feel like that's a fun way to spruce things up. Feels like partners are, a lot of the time, both team and romantic partners. (Such as the fan ships in RWBY and canon ships in JNPR)

NO DEVIL'S TANGO IN FANTASY. That's a lie there can be some but it shouldn't be the main focus. You'd think they'd be too busy saving the world to do that. I'm kinda going for that in what I write - fantasy, with drama and action and adventure.

When I've gotten writing critique, worldbuilding is one of the main points I've been told to improve on. Thus why I made Enfys, though with story work and exams and trying to make team names (and changing one like five times because I needed a name that fit the theme I wanted), I haven't gotten to think about it much.
