the whole "one character is popular and one is bullied" is a bit played out, IMO. I agree. It's played out like TV tropes level played out. I'd like to make my stuff different and a bit unexpected.

hmmmm i'd say.......build up each other's worlds. spend the first chapter looking at their daily lives with their own routines and circle of friends. then have them encounter each other online and go from there.

Yeah, that's my general idea, except I'll start off with Ash's life and gradually describe Dawn's life. I really want the main focus to be the growth of their relationship and how people you meet online could be your first friend (or more).

Maybe have it build up Ash's life fast, but gradually build up Dawn's. I would say make it a bit tragic too

Maybe have their pasts be extraordinarily different. Ash's being ideal. Dawn's being tragic. Maybe they land on this topic when they are already friends and they can clash over certain ideals due to how they were brought up

I think this is getting a bit off topic.

in the fic everyone reads. lol.
i made a small mention of dawn's father but nothing too big. he died but it wasn't anything super important. you could go that route. up to you.
