how do you write a liar?

How to Write Liars Believably

Language

The motive of every goal is the make the lie seem plausible while taking blame off the speaker, so liars will often project what they say to a third party: "Katie said that..."

Referring to third parties as "they" rather than he or she

In the case of a deliberate lie prepped beforehand, there will be an overuse of specific names (rather than pronouns) as the speaker tries to get the details right.

Overuse of non-committal words like "something may have happened"

Masking or obscuring facts like "to the best of my knowledge" and “it is extremely unlikely," etc.

Avoiding answers to specific, pressing questions

Voice

There's isn't a set tone/speed/style of speaking, but your character's speech patten will differ from his normal one.

People tend to speak faster when they're nervous and are not used to lying.

Body Language

Covering their mouth

Constantly touching their nose

fidgeting, squirming or breaking eye contact

turning away, blinking faster, or clutching a comfort object like a cushion as they speak

nostril flaring, rapid shallow breathing or slow deep breaths, lip biting, contracting, sitting on your hands, or drumming your fingers. 

Highly-trained liars have mastered the art of compensation by freezing their bodies and looking at you straight in the eye.

Trained liars can also be experts in the art of looking relaxed. They sit back, put their feet up on the table and hands behind their head.

For deliberate lies, the character may even carefully control his body language, as though his is actually putting on a show

The Four Types of Liars

Deceitful: those who lie to others about facts

2. Delusional: those who lie to themselves about facts

3. Duplicitious: those who lie to others about their values

Lying about values can be even more corrosive to relationships than lying about facts. 

4. Demoralized: those who lie to themselves about their values

Additional Notes

Genuine smiles or laughs are hard to fake

Exaggerations of words (that would normally not be emphasized) or exaggerated body language

Many savvy detectives ask suspects to tell the story in reverse or non-linear fashion to expose a lie. They often ask unexpected, or seemingly irrelevant questions to throw suspects off track.

I can’t wait to learn more about the other Beast Cookies, because I have a headcanon that their prisons inside the tree are tailored with a specific punishment for each of them depending on their crimes.

For example, Shadow Milk Cookie’s prison is a vast empty nothingness. He can do whatever he wants, cast whatever spells and put on whatever shows… but he’s ALONE. No audience to terrorize or entertain. Nothing there to challenge him or inspire him. It’s just pure monotony. It’s BORING, and Shadow Milk would do anything not to be bored.

the more mischaracterization I see of PV the more years I lose off my lifespan mini-rant upcoming.. He's been around for over 1000 years! sure he's gentle but he is an EDUCATED cookie, he's not stupid.. he probably knows how intercourse works he's not gonna freak out if you m0an because its a natural response to pleasure!! he's not some soft-boy with no clue how the world works and a weakling who needs to hide tail-tucked between his legs behind his friends because a big scary monster growled at him, nor is his personality JUST "simping" for white lily, if you've played the game you'll know this dude tanked dark enchantress ALONE, BY HIMSELF. now that I've stopped rambling about that here's some art I made of Pure Vanilla

Let's talk about fight scenes.

Writing fight scenes requires a delicate balance of action, emotion, and detail to keep readers engaged and immersed in the moment.

Here are some tips to craft compelling fight scenes:

Know your characters: Understand their fighting styles, strengths, and weaknesses—are they offensive, or defensive? Spontaneous, or strategic? Trigger-happy, or reluctant? Their personalities and motivations will influence their actions and decisions during the fight.

Create tension: Build tension leading up to the fight to increase the stakes and make the action more gripping. Foreshadowing, verbal sparring, or physical intimidation can all contribute to a sense of anticipation.

Use sensory details: Engage the reader's senses by describing the sights, sounds, smells, and physical sensations of the fight. This helps to create a vivid and immersive experience—but make sure not to overdo it. Too much detail can distract from the adrenaline of the fight.

Maintain clarity: Ensure that the action is easy to follow by using clear and concise language. Avoid overly complicated sentences or excessive description that could confuse readers.

Focus on emotions: Show the emotional impact of the fight on your characters. Describe their fear, anger, determination, or adrenaline rush to make the scene more compelling and relatable.

Include strategic elements: Incorporate tactics, strategy, and improvisation into the fight to make it more dynamic and realistic. Think about how your characters use their surroundings, weapons, or special abilities to gain an advantage.

Balance dialogue and action: Intersperse dialogue with action to break up the fight scene and provide insight into the characters' thoughts and intentions. Dialogue can also reveal or support the characters' personalities and motivations.

Keep it concise: While it's important to provide enough detail to immerse readers in the action, avoid unnecessary padding or overly long fight scenes. Keep the pacing brisk to maintain momentum and keep readers hooked.

Show the consequences: Illustrate the aftermath of the fight, including injuries, emotional trauma, or changes in relationships between characters. This adds depth to the scene and helps to drive the story forward.

Hope this helped ❤

I finally finished the wip of the beast design of Elder Faerie :3

My favorite part personally was the wings BC before I added the glowy parts it had tree branches on it. I took inspirations from the Radiance from Hollowknight and some other stuff. I'm v proud of how it came out fr

With that being said imma change some stuff like his beast name which is "divine judgement" and yeah. Just all in all I enjoyed making this, and imma incorporate the Chronicles of Tuba into the au BC I think its neat for the faerie kingdom to fight with music.

#OMG THAT LOOKS SO RAD #elder faerie cookie
