Q&A (Questions and Answers), (don’t put the scene in the text, put the questions, but base them off the story, and don’t put the dream scene in there): write as a list
– Write a list of each character’s thoughts on the siblings (Emily, Alex, Leo, and Owen), this is the parents’ thoughts on their children and the siblings’ thoughts on each other, first put a description, and then after the description put their first-person thoughts, put the positives and the negatives for the siblings’ thoughts, and put the goods and the difficulties (the difficulties and frustrations) for the parents. Owen can really express his thoughts clearly.
– Who is the most annoying character?
– How does each character (including the parents) act when they get mad.
– Which character is it funny to see get mad?
– Which character is the scariest to see get mad?
– Is Alex too mean to Leo? If so, how and why? What can she do better? Will this effect Leo when he is older?
– Does Alex get annoyed when Leo is excited?
– Is Emily nice to Leo?
– Does Owen seem to like Leo, or does he seem to be scared of him?
– If Alex snaps at Leo (which he only does if he is whiny, and not listening to his parents when they say no), will this affect him when he’s older? If so, how?
– Is Leo scared of Alex?
– How does Leo feel when he tries to play, talk to, or show something to someone, but they are busy, how does it make him feel?
– Does Alex need to give Leo discipline?
– Is Leo being annoying? If so, how and why?

– Is Leo acting appropriately for his age?
– Who is in the wrong?
– Does Leo deserved to be yelled at when he’s being whiny, and disrespectful? Does he deserve discipline, or does he not deserve it?
– List all the times where Leo has been annoying.
– What would happen if Alex pushed Leo if he was messing with her? she would never do this if he was annoying, unless he unintentionally laid his hands on her, when trying to “annoy” her. But can she still apologize to Leo?
– Is it a good thing, or a bad thing that Leo wants attention all the time?
– Is Leo’s methods of wanting attention bad?
– Is Leo being selfish?
– Is Leo a little rough with Owen? If so, list all the times he’s rough with Owen. (Note: He never makes Owen scream, and he never messes with Owen’s hair, in fact, I don’t think Leo touches Owen’s hair, Leo would only be rough when carrying him, or playing with him (like accidentally scaring him with his toys), he never pranks him, and he is never too rough aggressive towards him), if so, Leo does not intend to be rough, he just wants to play with his brother, and be good big brother towards him.
– What are all the times Leo has been annoying in public (even if he isn’t meaning to be) (there are probably as lot of these)
– Is Leo being ignored?
– Is Leo a good or a bad brother?
– When Leo says Alex stinks, is he right about that, does Alex actually stink, or is he just saying that regardless of whether she stinks or not? It’s possible Alex stinks, but its’ possible that she does not. This could vary.
– What do the other kids think of Leo? (kids around Leo’s age)
– Does Leo need to be punished?
– Should Alex be punished for yelling at Leo?

– Does Leo need a spanking when he is in trouble?
– How would Leo feel if he got a spanking for being whiny and disrepectful?
– How would his siblings feel about Leo getting a spanking?
– How would Alice and David feel about spanking Leo?
– What would Leo being doing in his room?
– Would Leo learn a lesson from this?
– Leo might still be able to forgive his parents.
– What are some times Alex has been mean to Leo?
– What are some times Alex has been caring towards Leo?
– What are some things Emily, Alex, Leo, and Owen like?
– How does Leo act at school? Does he get in trouble at school? (I don’t think he whines in class, but he might kick a ball and accidentally hit someone with it)
– What do Leo’s teachers think of him.
– What would happen if Leo got detention? (He’s never had detention before)?
– Is it necessary for Leo to get detention for hitting a student or a teacher with a ball (even if it was by accident),
– Does he deserve to get detention, or does he not deserve it?
– Is Leo mature for his age? Does he act like a 10-year-old? (When Leo gets mad, he doesn’t always wine, he mostly just pouts, sometimes when he can’t have something he just accepts that he can’t have it) (I don’t Leo is spoiled)
– What type of mind does Leo have (imagination as well, like does he have a big imagination)?
– Alice and David do not baby Leo, they want him to be a man when he grows up. If Leo were to be babied, then Leo would not know how to navigate the world, because he would always ask “Mommy and Daddy” for help, and he would be a childish adult. But Alice and David do not “baby” him, they say he’s a kid, not a baby. They don’t carry him, and Leo does not sit on their lap. They want (and hope for) Leo to grow up into a young man.
– What are some rules that the children have?
– Write a scene where Leo would be punished (this does actually happen in the story, this is just what would happen and what Leo would do IF he were to be punished for his actions, he would have to be punished for a reasonable reason), this is a different scene, this is not based off a scene in the story, this is like a complete different story. Dialogue only. Each Scene is long. When Leo is punished, we see his emotions, how he feels (maybe sad, scared, confused, and upset), how he acts, and what he does when he is punished. Alice and David have a talk about them punishing Leo, Alex and Emily also share their opinions on this. Leo might be grounded for a short or long amount of time, or something. The scene will end with him being ungrounded, and he will be asked if he learned his lesson.
– Does it seem like the writer of the story wants Leo to be punished?
– What are each character’s relationships with each other (this includes the parents).
There is a scene about the 4 siblings and their parent’s relationships. Sometimes Alex gets annoyed when her mother tells her to do something, and in her mind, Alice gets so frustrated with Alex’s behavior. I want to see each parents’ relationship with each child. The story starts with them all in the living room during the middle of the day (possibly on a Saturday), there is a scene when Leo plays with Owen but after a short while, Leo accidentally drops Owen (Remember that Owen is still Leo). Later before Dinner, There is a scene where Leo tries to annoy his sisters (there are multiple scenes of this, one scene where he annoys Alex, one scene where he annoys Emily, and one scene where he annoys both Alex and Emily), and there is another scene where he tries to “annoy” his parents (even he’s not purposely trying to be annoying, nor does he think he’s annoying), there are two scenes of this (first scene where he talks to his mom, and the other with his dad), Alice is a little busy when Leo tries to talk to her, but Leo doesn’t see that, David is also busy in his office, but David shows a little bit more interest, because he doesn’t want to hurt his son’s feelings by saying he’s busy, because he doesn’t want Leo to think his parents ignore him. There is another scene after dinner, where Alice tells Alex to wash the dishes, but Alex is snarky about this, during their talk, Leo butts in, and asks to do something that he wants to do (example: go play outside but he is not allowed to at night, maybe he wants to grab a cookie as well when Alice says he can’t play outside, or something else, you decide), but Alice tells him no, Leo keeps begging, Alice tells him no and to go play with his toys (play video games, and/or watch TV), or something idk, Alex tells Leo to go away, and to stop being disrespectful, because Mom said no, Leo and Alex then have a fight (a little long), Alex says something mean and hurtful (it’s not anything related to the word “annoying”, it’s something more hurtful to Leo, she says she wishes something) to Leo and he gets upset, and cries, he then tells Alice that Alex is being mean, Alex says something else to Leo, Alex also calls Leo a monster, Leo responds to that, and then says something mean to Alex, which Alice will have to get onto Leo, after Alex makes a final comment to Leo, he runs off to his room. After Leo runs off, Alice and Alex have a conversation about Leo, with Alice telling Alex to be a lot nicer to Leo, and that Leo is only a kid (put this in your words), but Alex tells her all the facts (make her say all of them, every single one) about why Leo is such a pain, this scene is kind of long (about 1,000 words), Alex gets frustrated especially when Alice keeps saying that Leo is “just a kid”, and Alex gets so mad repeatedly saying ‘”He’s just a kid?!”‘ , she says Alice always says this, and Alex then mentions every time he’s annoyed her (list every event that has happened that made her annoyed) and brings up moments where he was embarrassing (list every moment that Alex mentions). Alex tells Alice that Leo needs to mature. Alex says he’s being annoying to her, to Emily, and even mentions that he’s rough with Owen (Alex mentions all the times Leo’s been playing with Owen, list all the times Leo has been playing with Owen, Leo never touches Owen’s hair), and she also lists all of the times Leo’s been annoying to her, and towards Emily (list all of them), Alex even tells Alice that Leo is mean them (Alice and David) as well. Alice’s patience loses thin during this convo, so she’ll raise her voice, Alice will even bring up more stuff about her childhood. After Alex leaves the kitchen in a bad mood, Alice is like “I can’t with her” and “What am I gonna do with that girl”, she says this because of her daughter’s attitude after their fight, the scene is very long. There is another scene the next day, where Alice and Alex talk about last night, Alice is doing something and Alex says hey to her, and Alice tells her she was thinking about last night, which Alex acting kinda the same as last night, she’s still mad at Leo. David and Alice also talk about Alex and Leo’s relationship when they’re in the bed. Later, the next day, Alice talks to Alex again about Leo (this scene is also very long), except this time David is with her, and talks to Alex as well. Afterwards, we see Leo a bit more in the scenes in the living room and in his room, where maybe he’ll try to talk to his family, and ask something. Alex, and Emily are in their rooms at night, and Alex texts Emily about Leo, Emily asks if Alex wants to go to her room, they then talk in Emily’s room. Alex might have a dream about what could happen if she continues to be mean to Leo (followed by dialogue), the scene is like any other scene where they are at home, we see Leo’s attitude towards his family (his parents, Emily, Alex, and even Owen) In the dream, Leo is around Alex’s age, they are all doing their normal things, Alex is on her phone, Alice is in the kitchen, (List what Owen is doing), we see Leo speak to his mom, and Owen, Alex tries to talk to Leo. Alex wakes up glad to know it was a dream. Towards the end of the story where Alex apologizes to Leo for the way she acted, maybe Leo walks towards or near her, feeling sad, even though Alex might still be the sarcastic, snarky sister towards Leo, and Leo will still be the annoying little brother, who likes to bother Alex and Emily, Alex will still apologize if she’s ever too mean or too harsh to him. The story will end with all of them in bed. Dialogue only, but also show their expressions. 20,000 words. Each scene is long. There isn’t an narration, it’s only dialogue.
Notes:
– Alex never gets mad when playing with Owen, sometimes she might want to do what she wants to do, but she loves playing with Owen, and she tries to be a good sister towards him. Alex is never annoyed when Owen wants to play with her, Alex also doesn’t show any annoyance towards him either, especially since Owen is young.
– Leo is said to be a growing boy (I’m mainly talking about physical growth, like he is getting taller, but also as a person), as he is still growing up.
– Owen is 1 year old, so he does walk, he mostly either walks, crawls, or is being carried by someone.
– Owen only calls Alice “Mama”, since she is his mother.
– Owen doesn’t speak verbally much since he is a baby, he usually says goo-goo gaga, but sometimes he can see his siblings, and try to say their name, sometimes he will have trouble saying their name (write dialogue for this), and the sibling he is talking to will say their name and he will try and say it (example: A-lex), there is a scene of this.
– Whenever he’s crying the dialogue will either say “Waaaaaaaah!”, or it will just say that he’s crying.
– Whenever each character talks, most of the times it says their emotions, example: Alex (annoyed), Leo (pouting), Owen (crying), and Owen (sniffling), there will be dialogue when he does this.
– Owen tries to play with Alex in the living room, and Alex thinks its cute.
– Leo only pouts when he is upset or mad.
– Alex only gets mad at Leo when he whines, and cries when he doesn’t get what he wants, he doesn’t always do this, sometimes he’ll just accept it, but sometimes he’ll get whiny.
– Normally when Leo is annoying, Alex is just annoyed and just tells her to leave him alone, she’s not really that mean to him, and she barely snaps at him, she’s normally just sarcastic and snarky towards him.
– Alex and Emily get along pretty well, they’re kind of like best friends.
– Alex and Emily don’t argue over phones, because they both have phones.
– Alex and Emily are teenagers, so they are a little more mature. And they don’t argue.
– Leo calls his parents, Mom and Dad.
– Alex and Emily only have two brothers, Leo and Owen.
Siblings Relationship: seen throughout the story.

– Leo: Emily thinks Leo is a little annoying, but she is a lot nicer to him, than Alex is to Leo. Emily is kind of like the nice sister, she teases him, but in playful way I suppose, but she is the one who tells he’s annoying. Emily tells Alex, she’ll make sure Leo doesn’t annoy her too much.

If Leo is ever being bullied at school, Alex will try and comfort him, if Leo is sick, she’ll feel bad and tell him she’s sorry he’s sick. She doesn’t try to dismiss his feelings, she just gets annoyed at him, when he bothers her while she’s trying to do something, sometimes, she’ll get annoyed when he’s a little bit embarrassing, but she doesn’t burst into a rage, she only does this when he is being whiny, especially towards his parents. When Leo is disrupting her, she is onl;y sarcastic, and annoyed by him, but however, if he’s being whiny, disrespectful, and spoiled, she’ll snap at him. Alex does not snap at Leo when he tries to play with her, she snaps at him when he is rude, whiny, and disrespectful.
– Owen: Alex thinks Owen is a cute baby, she is a caring sister towards him, she carries him sometimes, she sometimes gets annoyed when he cries a lot, but she tries her best to calm him down, Overall, Alex doesn’t treat him the same as she does Leo.

Character Thoughts:
Parents (Alice & David):
Goods:
- Emily: A responsible, kind, and helpful daughter who is always willing to lend a hand. She is a good role model for Leo.
- Alex: A bright and witty daughter with a strong personality. She’s independent and capable, but sometimes needs a little guidance.
- Leo: A lively and energetic son who is full of imagination. He needs encouragement and support to navigate the world.
- Owen: A sweet and adorable baby who brings joy to the family. He needs constant love and attention.
Difficulties:
- Emily: Sometimes she can be too passive and doesn’t always stand up for herself or her siblings.
- Alex: Her snarky attitude and occasional anger can be difficult to deal with. Her frustration with Leo can be hard to manage.
- Leo: His constant need for attention and his tendency to be whiny can be tiring. His lack of maturity and constant need for discipline are challenging.
- Owen: His constant crying and need for attention can be demanding. It can be difficult to maintain a balance between giving him the attention he needs and also giving the other children the attention they need.
Siblings:
Emily:
- Alex: Positive – A good sister who understands her and is a good friend. Negative – Sometimes Alex can be too snarky and dismissive, particularly towards Leo.

Punishment Scene:
- Write a scene where Leo would be punished (this does actually happen in the story, this is just what would happen and what Leo would do IF he were to be punished for his actions), this is a different scene, this is not based off a scene in the story, this is like a complete different story. Dialogue only. Each Scene is long. When Leo is punished, we see his emotions, how he feels (maybe sad, scared, confused, and upset), how he acts, and what he does when he is punished. Alice and David have a talk about them punishing Leo, Alex and Emily also share their opinions on this. Leo might be grounded for a short or long amount of time, or something. The scene will end with him being ungrounded, and he will be asked if he learned his lesson.
Writer’s Intention:

Relationships:
- What are each character’s relationships with each other (this includes the parents)?
Specific Scene Questions:
- **There is a scene about the 4 siblings and their parent’s relationships. Sometimes Alex gets annoyed when her mother tells her to do something, and in her mind, Alice gets so frustrated with Alex’s behavior. I want to see each parents’ relationship with each child. The story starts with them all in the living room during the middle of the day (possibly on a Saturday), there is a scene when Leo plays with Owen but after a short while, Leo accidentally drops Owen (Remember that Owen is still little). Later before Dinner, There is a scene where Leo tries to annoy his sisters (there are multiple scenes of this, one scene where he annoys Alex, one scene where he annoys Emily, and one scene where he annoys both Alex and Emily), and there is another scene where he tries to “annoy” his parents (even he’s not purposely trying to be annoying, nor does he think he’s annoying), there are two scenes of this (first scene where he talks to his mom, and the other with his dad), Alice is a little busy when Leo tries to talk to her, but Leo doesn’t see that, David is also busy in his office, but David shows a little bit more interest, because he doesn’t want to hurt his son’s feelings by saying he’s busy, because he doesn’t want Leo to think his parents ignore him. There is another scene after dinner, where Alice tells Alex to wash the dishes, but Alex is snarky about this, during their talk, Leo butts in, and asks to do something that he wants to do (example: go play outside but he is not allowed to at night, maybe he wants to grab a cookie as well when Alice says he can’t play outside, or something else, you decide), but Alice tells him no, Leo keeps begging, Alice tells him no and to go play with his toys (play video games, and/or watch TV), or something idk, Alex tells Leo to go away, and to stop being disrespectful, because Mom said no, Leo and Alex then have a fight (a little long), Alex says something mean and hurtful (it’s not anything related to the word “annoying”, it’s something more hurtful to Leo, she says she wishes something) to Leo and he gets upset, and cries, he then tells Alice that Alex is being mean, Alex says something else to Leo, Alex also calls Leo a monster, Leo responds to that, and then says something mean to Alex, which Alice will have to get onto Leo, after Alex makes a final comment to Leo, he runs off to his room. After Leo runs off, Alice and Alex have a conversation about Leo, with Alice telling Alex to be a lot nicer to Leo, and that Leo is only a kid (put this in your words), but Alex tells her all the facts (make her say all of them, every single one) about why Leo is such a pain, this scene is kind of long (about 1,000 words), Alex gets frustrated especially when Alice keeps saying that Leo is “just a kid”, and Alex gets so mad repeatedly saying ‘”He’s just a kid?!”‘ , she says Alice always says this, and Alex then mentions every time he’s annoyed her (list every event that has happened that made her annoyed) and brings up moments where he was embarrassing (list every moment that Alex mentions). Alex tells Alice that Leo needs to mature. Alex says he’s being annoying to her, to Emily, and even mentions that he’s rough with Owen (Alex mentions all the times Leo’s been playing with Owen, list all the times Leo has been playing with Owen, Leo never touches Owen’s hair), and she also lists all of the times Leo’s been annoying to her, and towards Emily (list all of them), Alex even tells Alice that Leo is mean them (Alice and David) as well. Alice’s patience loses thin during this convo, so she’ll raise her voice, Alice will even bring up more stuff about her childhood. After Alex leaves the kitchen in a bad mood, Alice is like “I can’t with her” and “What am I gonna do with that girl”, she says this because of her daughter’s attitude after their fight, the scene is very long. There is another scene the next day, where Alice and Alex talk about last night, Alice is doing something and Alex says hey to her, and Alice tells her she was thinking about last night, which Alex acting kinda the same as last night, she’s still mad at Leo. David and Alice also talk about Alex and Leo’s relationship when they’re in the bed. Later, the next day, Alice talks to Alex again about Leo (this scene is also very long), except this time David is with her, and talks to Alex as well. Afterwards, we see Leo a bit more in the scenes in the living room and in his room, where maybe he’ll try to talk to his family, and ask something. Alex, and Emily are in their rooms at night, and Alex texts Emily about Leo, Emily asks if Alex wants to go to her room, they then talk in Emily’s room. Alex might have a dream about what could happen if she continues to be mean to Leo (followed by dialogue), the scene is like any other scene where they are at home, we see Leo’s attitude towards his family (his parents, Emily, Alex, and even Owen) In the dream, Leo is around Alex’s age, they are all doing their normal things, Alex is on her phone, Alice is in the kitchen, (List what Owen is doing), we see Leo speak to his mom, and Owen, Alex tries to talk to Leo. Alex wakes up glad to know it was a dream. Towards the end of the story where Alex apologizes to Leo for the way she acted, maybe Leo walks towards or near her, feeling sad, even though Alex might still be the sarcastic, snarky sister towards Leo, and Leo will still be the annoying little brother, who likes to bother Alex and Emily, Alex will still apologize if she’s ever too mean or too harsh to him. The story will end with all of them in bed. Dialogue only, but also show their expressions. 20,000 words. Each scene is long. There isn’t an narration, it’s only dialogue.
Notes:
– Alex never gets mad when playing with Owen, sometimes she might want to do what she wants to do, but she loves playing with Owen, and she tries to be a good sister towards him. Alex is never annoyed when Owen wants to play with her, Alex also doesn’t show any annoyance towards him either, especially since Owen is young.
– Leo is said to be a growing boy (I’m mainly talking about physical growth, like he is getting taller, but also as a person), as he is still growing up.
– Owen is 1 year old, so he does walk, he mostly either walks, crawls, or is being carried by someone.
– Owen only calls Alice “Mama”, since she is his mother.
– Owen doesn’t speak verbally much since he is a baby, he usually says goo-goo gaga, but sometimes he can see his siblings, and try to say their name, sometimes he will have trouble saying their name (write dialogue for this), and the sibling he is talking to will say their name and he will try and say it (example: A-lex), there is a scene of this.
– Whenever he’s crying the dialogue will either say “Waaaaaaaah!”, or it will just say that he’s crying.
– Whenever each character talks, most of the times it says their emotions, example: Alex (annoyed), Leo (pouting), Owen (crying), and Owen (sniffling), there will be dialogue when he does this.
– Owen tries to play with Alex in the living room, and Alex thinks its cute.
– Leo only pouts when he is upset or mad.
– Alex only gets mad at Leo when he whines, and cries when he doesn’t get what he wants, he doesn’t always do this, sometimes he’ll just accept it, but sometimes he’ll get whiny.
– Normally when Leo is annoying, Alex is just annoyed and just tells her to leave him alone, she’s not really that mean to him, and she barely snaps at him, she’s normally just sarcastic and snarky towards him.
– Alex and Emily get along pretty well, they’re kind of like best friends.
– Alex and Emily don’t argue over phones, because they both have phones.
– Alex and Emily are teenagers, so they are a little more mature. And they don’t argue.
– Leo calls his parents, Mom and Dad.
– Alex and Emily only have two brothers, Leo and Owen.
