It’s ok if you’re attracted to this potato. Or jealous. Or both. It’s a great potato. No judgement here.

Another worldbuilding application of the "two layer rule": To create a culture while avoiding The Planet Of Hats (the thing where a people only have one thing going for them, like "everyone wears a silly hat"): You only need two hats.

Try picking two random flat culture ideas and combine them, see how they interact. Let's say taking the Proud Warrior Race - people who are all about glory in battle and feats of strength, whose songs and ballads are about heroes in battle and whose education consists of combat and military tactics. Throw in another element: Living in diaspora. Suddenly you've got a whole more interesting dynamic going on - how did a people like this end up cast out of their old native land? How do they feel about it? How do they make a living now - as guards, mercenaries? How do their non-combatants live? Were they always warrior people, or did they become fighters out of necessity to fend for themselves in the lands of strangers? How do the peoples of these lands regard them?

Like I'm not shitting, it's literally that easy. You can avoid writing an one-dimensional culture just by adding another equally flat element, and the third dimension appears on its own just like that. And while one of the features can be location/climate, you can also combine two of those with each other.

Let's take a pretty standard Fantasy Race Biome: The forest people. Their job is the forest. They live there, hunt there, forage there, they have an obnoxious amount of sayings that somehow refer to trees, woods, or forests. Very high chance of being elves. And then a second common stock Fantasy Biome People: The Grim Cold North. Everything is bleak and grim up there. People are hardy and harsh, "frostbite because the climate hates you" and "being stabbed because your neighbour hates you" are the most common causes of death. People are either completely humourless or have a horrifyingly dark, morbid sense of humour. They might find it funny that you genuinely can't tell which one.

Now combine them: Grim Cold Bleak Forest People. The summer lasts about 15 minutes and these people know every single type of berry, mushroom and herb that's edible in any fathomable way. You're not sure if they're joking about occasionally resorting to eating tree bark to survive the long dark winter. Not a warrior people, but very skilled in disappearing into the forest and picking off would-be invaders one by one. Once they fuck off into the woods you won't find them unless they want to be found.

You know, Finland.

Okay, normally, I don't do this kind of thing, but I can not get it out of my head.

Carmilla said the best thing to kill an angel with is to fight for what you love. To fight for something you believe in. And that's what the whole gang does.

Charlie fights for her dream

Vaggie fights for Charlie

Angel and Husk fight for their friends

Lucifer fights for his daughter

Sir Pentious DIED for love and friendship

Guess who doesn't win in their fight?

Alastor can not comprehend dying for friends of all things. He was fighting for power he was fighting for freedom, and he lost his fight.

Hazbin Hotel Spoilers for episode 8

This... THIS IS WHAT IM TALKING ABOUT BABY!!!

You can completely feel the chemistry between these two now, of course you could before but I was VERY nervous these two only stay as close friends, it is now no secret that they will develop a deeper relationship over time.

And this? This is exactly what I was wanting, you can finally see the attraction Husk feels towards Angel. The deeper voice, the way he looks him up and down, the only demon in a while that is into Angel because he's just him, not some famous porn star with the nice body.

He's attracted, but he still doesn't go off and try and get in bed with Angel, even if they might die after fighting the angels, even if this will be the last chance he'll be able to do it. He is just... SUCH A GENTLEMAN!!!

The same goes for Angel, which speaks so many volumes. He says it outright, that they can live the night however they wanted, but he chooses to sit there and drink with him. AND FUCK!!! The way he looks back at Husk?!

PLEAAASE!!! When was the last time he's ever looked at someone like that? With nothing but affection, no hint of wanting to get down and dirty.

I am SO so happy they didn't have them get together by the end of this season, they deserve more build up, more moments, and I am so genuinely excited to see what's in store for them. Angel and Husk deserve a slow burn!!
