>>55376969>Thematically, what do (You) want to express with your OCs, if you’re writing stories for them? And even if you’re not, what themes do they have as a person?while ive been making ocs since i was a little kid i only started writing actual fics back when teal mask dropped since for some unfathomable reason it triggered my autism like nothing else. part of the reason why i never really wrote anything was because i felt too incapable to actually tackle stories with any sort of themes/meaning/character development. but the idea of dreams and what it takes to chase them appealed to me a lot though and its why i actually bothered to try giving bibi an established personality and backstory instead of throwing together a character design+team and calling it a day. she's supposed to express that you'll make sacrifices or get hurt pursuing the things you dream about but that you shouldn't give up
also in your defense future/past is such a good theme gamefreak decided to do it twice between BW and SV
