forum Critiques for him?

plot: characters are stationed in a psychiatric facility to work through psychological problems (addiction, trauma, depression, etc.)

Aleksandr: I like that the thoughts and mannerisms all connect to the trauma, it shows just how much this has affected him. But what gives him hope? What are the little things and hobbies that make him smile? What is he like on a good day vs a bad day? What frustrates him about his condition? Also the fox is a cute touch

@Elaina

Thank you so much for the critique! I think what gives him hope is seeing other patients discharge and hearing about their lives post-hospitalization. Adventure Time and Harry Potter really make him happy–they make him feel like a kid again. On a good day he is still introverted, although he's more social and open. On a bad day he refuses to speak or eat and he'd rather get in trouble with the nurses and staff than deal with his issue. I think what frustrates him is that teenaged boys are supposed to be sex-crazed hormonal beasts. He's terrified of touching anyone or anyone touching him. He's frustrated because he just wants to be normal.

you can use this as a reference for Zorro

I would love to critique any of your characters. Just send me the link :)

That's really good, if you want me to look at any more characters I would be happy to :) Most of mine are still in pretty early development, but I will put them here when they are ready
