Does your romance help the plot or characters?
I like to think both 🙂 I haven’t written it yet, only outlined, so my answers are purely theoretical XD
The romance (or more accurately, the potential for romance) is mainly used as a motivator for the characters. Both positive and negative. I use it to leverage them to do things they don’t actually want to do because it either threatens the love interest or threatens the relationship, or because it lets them get closer to it. It also adds to the stakes since they get very close to losing it.
