Any advice on writing someone who's got a crush? I don't want to make it sound too "omg I think they're perfect" every other sentence.

Writing a character with a crush...

When you’re writing a character with a crush, tension is created through action and reaction. Every time your character acts, hesitates, speaks their mind, holds their tongue, makes a move, get’s discouraged, etc. builds the tension and encourages the reader to become invested. Crushes in storytelling should be shown through the character’s actions and the world’s reactions, not through dialogue or narration. 

Show the reader the character taking 20 minutes to build up the courage to walk up to their locker, where their crush has one right next to theirs because they’re worried they’ll blurt out the wrong thing if the other person shows up. Don’t just tell the reader that the character feels nervous around them or gets butterflies. Show the butterflies threatening to erupt as their crush sits at the only available seat left in homeroom, which happens to be next to them.

In this gif pack you can find 115 gifs of T’Nia Miller as Hannah Grose in Episode 1 of The Haunting of Bly Manor. I will keep updating the pack as I gif more of the episodes (I plan on giffing the entire season). All of these gifs were made by me for roleplaying purposes. Please like or reblog if you plan on using them or found the pack helpful, but please don’t put them into other gif hunts or use them for making icon gifs or crackships or anything else.
