Advice from the youngest of five: don’t make them sweet to each other u less one is way older. Ever time siblings get along too well im like damn, that’s not realistic at all 😭honestly would be easier to have them be horrible to each other all the time aside from when they NEED each other

siblings dynamics 101 : siblings are best friends that hate each other and use each other to push the boundaries to learn what is and isn't appropriate human behavior in society which is why they hate one another because they are both bad at being human and are stuck in a crucible together. At least that was my experience hope this helps lol

I have a sister, but I was writing a scene of two siblings reuniting that only consisted of arguing and my editor was like... is there any way to make it seem like they're happy to see each other?

Yeah... No sibling talks like that XD
my advice is to get friends with siblings and secretly study the way the interact with their siblings and base the convos off of that

I love watching only children try to comprehend sibling relationships 😭

here's some tips that are a little different from the others in these comments (as someone who has two younger brothers, and is also a writer): 1. consider their childhood! how were the siblings raised, and how did their parents treat them. consider how their parents might treat one sibling differently than the other. does one sibling notice and recognize the different treatment? how does that sibling empathize with their sibling in that way? this allows you to think about the ways in which the siblings are allies or competitors. ✨ 2. not all sibling dynamics are the same! sure there are similar themes depending on age differences and gender roles, but not every pair of siblings follow these stereotypes. try to instead label a sibling relationship dyamic with one word to help you stay grounded to the core of their relationship. I like to use words like "supportive" or "jokesters" for positive relationship dynamics, and "distant" or "strained" for more negative relationship dynamics. ✨3. sibling relationships change over time! they don't just have to be one thing. consider what each sibling might need from their friendships and relationships, and evaluate whether or not their siblings are meeting those needs! ✨4. people treat their siblings differently when other people are around. how does your character treat their siblings when their friends are around, what about when grandma's visiting? consider who will see the interactions! ✨

protip: siblings billy each other, and only say nice things to each other if one of them is dying. siblings tend not to show love through words. more like aggressively doing nice things for the other

Basically just make them constantly pick on each other and never get along unless it’s a very serious moment

as someone who has a brother, don’t make them nice to each other. Sibling banter is quintessential!

something more realistic:
"Hey can you give me ___"
"No" but they give them ___ anyway

having siblings is like having that one friend that you've been friends with for so long that you get to start oversharing to

have one crop dust the other one, and make sure to have a scene where there's one donut left and they both grab it and one shoves the entire thing in their mouth so the other one can't have it.

My advice would be to figure out if you want their dynamic to be more friendly and whatever or if it’s basically two strangers/acquaintances living together who happened to be birthed from the same hole

Just make the brother bully the sister, but beat up any of his friends if they try it or try to flirt with her

Watch Bobs Burgers and Bridgerton to know how siblings interact with one another😂😂 They’re pretty accurate.
