TROPE
Step 1: Required Before World Selection
Hate You So Good
Sparks fly, insults sting, and the tension is unbearable… until it turns undeniable.
Two people on opposing sides of something—rival jobs, warring kingdoms, or feuding families—find themselves locked in proximity and in denial. This trope promises verbal sparring, irresistible chemistry, and a first kiss that changes everything.
Pretend You Love Me
What starts as pretend... rarely stays that way.
They agreed to fake it—just for an event, a week, a family function. But when pretending becomes pleasure, the lines blur fast. Expect lingering looks, “just one bed” scenarios, and growing feelings that ruin the plan (but make the story).
You’re the Worst… and I Love You
One’s all business and brooding. The other? A ray of chaos and charm.
One character is ice-cold, emotionally reserved, or just annoyed at the world. The other is bubbly, chaotic, or annoyingly kind. But opposites don’t just attract—they combust.
Marked by Destiny
You don’t just want them—you were made for them.
​
Across realms, bloodlines, or lives, you were always meant to find each other. This trope is primal, magnetic, and often magical. Expect destiny marks, soul bonds, and uncontrollable heat between two connected beings.
WORLD
Step 2: Required Before Love Interest
Two journalists. One story. Zero chill. You’re gunning for the same scoop—until the late nights and shared bylines get messy.
A crown. A rebellion. A forbidden attraction between you and the enemy general.
You both co-founded a startup—and now you want to kill each other. Or kiss. Or both
You're a champion in the blood-stained arena. They’re the undefeated ruler of it. You’re either going to kill each other—or fall in lust under the roar of the crowd.
LOVE INTEREST
Step 3: Required Before Villain
Grumpy, sharp-tongued, and always one coffee short of kind. You're the only one who gets under his skin—and maybe, under his clothes.
Too eager. Too chipper. Too damn distracting. But maybe too good to resist.
She lives for chaos, gossip, and calling you out publicly. Too bad her lipstick looks amazing while doing it.
He’s the newsroom’s rulebook in human form. Buttoned-up. Moral to a fault. Always lecturing you on ethics—until the sparks start to fly.
Villain
Step 4: Required Before Getting Your New-Favorite Book
Always eavesdropping. Always forwarding your drafts to someone else. You hate them. But maybe you should fear them.
More interested in clicks than ethics. And definitely not above blackmail.
Someone inside the newsroom is feeding your exclusives to a competitor—and it’s getting personal.
They’re not technically part of the newsroom, but they fund it—and now they’re trying to shape your story into propaganda.
