Hi astra

Rayla from dragon prince?
He changes as the story goes on
ooo thats a potty word im telling
Woof woof woof is the answrr trust
legolas?
Arwen
this.
naughty
im lazy to type
galadriel
i just simply wouldn’t, you don’t get to know what the character was like, bros just there
Himmel from Frieren?
character interactions, seeing how others feel and how they behave towards the mc
Oddeyes (oddeyous? Idk how to spell rn...)
The main character has anger issues and they progressively get better
Odysseus?
Yes.ty
ROTTMNT LEO PFP!?!?!!!
Aries?
Odysseus from epic
anyway umm with how i like to write main characters, i would never mention anything regarding their backstory but make their characteristics in certian situations simular to how they were in the past or smth. and in certian situations it would get better or become worse
ehe
Ian?
GUYS. WHAT IF ITS ALL MIGHT?
maybe... 
emphasize the way other characters interact w them
from the emojis all i can see is link from tloz and legolas from tlotr
Could also be kirito from sao
Uh oddly bright colored clothes in the closet that never get used and contrast against the other dark clothes, and subtle mentions of growing up more mature? I dont know i really need flashbacks
Character finds a magic based reflection that shows them when they're younger but they act completely separate from the current timeline counterpart
Aphrodite
Gotta pay attention to the colors
Zelda
Once again
Awesome!
Astra, do we have to say where they're from?
again i see link from tloz from the colours lol
Kinda
Is it Ian light foot
🙂↕️
I do too, tbh
It's not Himmel, is it?
Damn
I was gonna say katniss everdeen but Idk 💔
because this character has 2 different interpretations in media
time travel
Zelda from legends of zelda
Karai? Tmnt
Aragorn LOTR
and im talking about link from the legend of zelda breath of the wild
Is that the first hint?..
No
I would have pinned you already
Aphrodite from epic?
wrong @ shit
Zelda from Breath of the Wild
i replied to the wrong msg lol
If it's a Zelda game then idk...
simon petrikov
Artemis
Rumi kpdh
idk from what actually
you are wrong anyway
Archer smurf
dunno
For the question, I’d just show that the characters way of thinking and acting as the story progresses changes due to others interacting. I don’t know if that makes sense
yes i know😔
Aries from epic
Idk why at guessed Artemis her whole point is no men and there’s a man elf
Since when was Aries blue?
i dont think ares is blue
All I can think of is Gandalf…
I would probably have other characters just mention that the mc has changed using statements like "their smile has just not been the same as when they were a child" or "they weren't always like this" etc
I was guessing cuz the sword xD
i dont think i can get this one
Legolas?
so see yall tomorrow
Avatar..?
Legolas from lord of the rings
Idk
Papa smurf?...
its not legolas
I saw elf and immediately went for Arwen 😔
Legolas was a couple of days ago so I doubt they'd do that again
avatar isnt the series name? 😭
Hint 1
The ghost emoji plays a key role here.
Jake Sully from Avatar?
Idk bro
YEAH. PAPA SMURF.

hey astra how do you come up with the emojij combos?
💔 I just do
wait where does it say it's from a game
Answer the question.
Right here
VIDEO OF THE DAY:
ah
And to answer your question Astra, How about they have memory lost? Cause the story I'm making starts with them burning down their own orphanage
Through body language or words
"Wow, you've grown so much" or "you're more vocal than you used to be, huh?"
My best idea would be to just have them tell the story themselves. I usually enjoy "show, don't tell" more, but if my hands are tied and I can't show it, I gotta tell it somehow, so...I have them tell it.
Real
A person knowing the old them
the other characters would slowly figure out their true self
Show it via other characters making remarks or taking action about it
Have someone like their friends or their family members talk about it to someone new the MC just met
The eyes and actions, and a picture comparing the two of them being completely different people.
inumaki
LOL
Phoenix wright
Someone tell me why I guessed Legolas
The flinches and look in their eyes + actions
It’s okay pookie, I would’ve guessed that too
Cuz he got no hug
Facial Expressions when meeting someone they recognize
i'mn not giving ugly ahh wrinkle minkle a hug
toga pfp
💗
Awh poor shigi
He has more control now

Aside from using dreams (I personally don't count dreams as flashbacks, I think we all dream about memories sometimes lol), I would just do what I do in real life and casually allude to my past in certain situations. Like at my current job, when things get crazy, I'll be like 'aw man, I would have totally lost my marbles over this rush when I was in high school' and stuff like that. Then if someone, or another character, asks what I mean, I would then explain that I was an absolute bloody wreck as a teenager lol.
Answer to QOTD: By other ppls reactions to them or the characters internal thoughts

thats prety good

Maybe have the mc meet a character from the first ep or season and that character perceive them totally differently from who they are now, but it's actually how the mc used to be
Through ✨songs✨
I would make the main character (along with the side characters) always say little bits of their backstory without it all together throughout the whole show
For example,
Person: why do you flinch so much?
Character: Because my uncle used to abuse me until my mom killed him
(Crazy ik i js came up with it on spot)
Have him comment about things.
*
Exapmle: They see a bunch of young punks outside a bar, he stares at them a bit longer then he should before commenting in their mind "I can't belive that's what I looked like.. what a waste of talent that was.."
pockets of unnatural dark anger. Like they'd be doing normal stuff but rage at the tiniest things and be like "NO...no...we don't do that anymore." And everytime they refer to themselves they think "we". I prolly keep that throughout the book until the end lmao
and dance ✨
✨✨
Old friends
old friends
we. said the exact same thing 😭
Ooo, maybe there was a scribe who wrote everything down about the mc, and recites it. Idk lol
Bring up old friends who don't recognize the person the mc has become
I would say sometimes make them slip up nd act different than normal
maybe like
hmm
have my other characters talk abt how they sused to be different
miss the old them
that kinda stuff
or the hcaracter can have an old diary and they read from it
Flashbacks are important tho!!
Idk maybe he's perceived by the villain as what he used to be, but I think it might confuse the readers
mc looking through old stuff that they would never use now. maybe they stumble upon a photo that shows them from long ago
Seeing an old picture of them in their old house? Idk, I never thought about it.
Having characters interact with them and by the end show that with the characters being different towards the main character from the start it shows how much the main character had changed
They’d see and old friend and they’d hide meanwhile the other person js sees them as a stranger not even recognizing them
they slip back into their old personality sometimes, and whenever someone points it out they freeze but laugh and brush it off
What's the extent of a flashback
Maybe through places they been or people that they once knew. Even pictures that they have that showed who they were before.
Like uh uh uh show them pictures
By I guess tell don’t show
By slowly regaining lost memories. This actually happens to the MC in another personal tale I'm writing.
I'd probably made him/her or even myself not a people pleaser
Making them meet an old friend who barely recognises them because that's just how much their personality has changed
I change them
the character says "i used to be different, y'know, heh... 😏"
probably through other characters talking abt it, or old mementos like pictures
Ye
Through other characters and pictures. It'd also be cool if the reader/viewer could use its own imagination to make up the events without there being that much context
