Pick a character and I will give and explain the top five ideas/concepts/etc I keep in mind while writing that character that I believe are essential to accurately depicting them.
I love these memes. I actually have two muselists at the moment, since I'm in the middle of switching over... Which, more accurately means "I was going to switch over,

SORRY FOR SO MANY EDITS sob
