That’s awesome! I totally get that.  In my WIP I have a brother and a sister as two of the main characters, and they are really fun to work with, I gotta admit 🙂

And yes, I like how you said the best friend relationships developing into romantic ones.  I dislike the love at first sight thing, or even just, “I barely know you, but because we just did that crazy thing together, we’re great friends and I like you.”  Of course, the character never literally says that (that’d be super weird) but it kinda happens, y’know?  Like a mysterious guy just saves the girl from a deathly situation, then she immediately loves him.  I mean, I get admiring someone right off the bat, but the immediate love annoys me.  Like just ’cause you see someone singing nicely by a well, doesn’t mean that you suddenly have a mutual sense of true love. *cough cough, Snow White, cough cough* To me, that’s just fake, cheesy, totally un-real love.  (Sorry about the rant, that’s one of my pet peeves)

And I totally get what you mean about the friend situation.  A lot of the girls I know are just sorta all about popular (and to me silly) things, which I’ve never really bought into or liked.  That’s good though that you have those guys to confide in 🙂

Hmmm, I think my favorite relationship to write about is probably a father figure– younger person or child relationship.  Like when he sorta takes the kid under his wings.  Sorta like Gammon and Maraly from the Wingfeather Saga.  I think it’s partly bc it reminds me of how God is our Father, and bc my family has adopted two children, so that adoption theme has been a large part of my life.  Like a protector and his beloved who he has sworn to protect.  I didn’t explain that very well, but something like that.  So yes, a father or father figure–child (or person he took under his wing) relationship. 🙂
