Biography

Strong relationships thrive on how each member compensates for the other's weaknesses with their own strengths, and vice versa. It is all but guaranteed that the characters' differences will cause more friction than harmony between them. Bickering and mushiness in one package. What's not to like? About the biggest challenge in creating a day-and-night dynamic is to keep the attract and repel cases relatively balanced. When the pendulum swings too far toward the repel side and the characters seem more interested in torturing each other than helping out, it's no longer cute to watch; it's just masochistic. The key (both in fiction and in real life) is to watch the pair's goals. If they want the same thing but use completely different methods to achieve it, it's this. If they want different things entirely, it's a divorce waiting to happen.
