my favourite jumps constantly between sam and juliette but atm it's more leaning towards sam (for a bit anyway)

i feel weird like talking about how much i love my characters but i think my favourite thing with sam is just her personality and the way she tries to be so cool and chill all the time and how she's working on talking about her feelings and growing slowly from the original sam who just liked alcohol and one night stands. now instead, she's working on her singing career, still in love with tequila, and she's in some long term relationship with someone who isn't just there for sex (plus she might genuinely like him. who knows.)

juliette is also there because i just really think she has an interesting history and  feel like her personality takes after that a lot. like, she has all these things about abandonment and people leaving her, but then she's also able to look past that and she's really positive a lot (even if she makes fun of herself a lot). i also got distracted while writing this and got on a rant about how ppl assume a strong female character has to not need a relationship to be happy but juliette is a twist on that stereotype bc she's got all these independent motivations and wants and hopes but she craves intimacy and closeness first and she always wants to have someone around to share her happiness with and help her when she's sad and like there's absolutely nothing wrong with that
