UPDATE ON MY TIFF X JENNY FIC!
So I noticed kind of a problem when writing the Tiff x Jenny story that problem being...
Tiff has no fucking friends.
You see, Brit and Piff are basically her main friend group, alongside the other rich popular girls, but when she gets with Jenny she can't really hang out with those anymore (or confide in them) so I wanted to give her friends, but like I felt like just giving her Brad and Sheldon was kind of lazy.
They are mainly Jennys friends and I feel like it would be harder to justify them being around Tiff, especially since I feel Tiff wouldn't like Sheldon all that much.
this didn't seem like an issue, since like this story was about Jenny getting to know the real Tiff and Tiff finally having someone to confide in.
But I feel like Tiff would feel even better if Jenny introduced some folk to Tiff, the real Tiff not the mean Crust everyone else knows. It gives Tiff another reason to like Jenny, Jenny gave her an ACTUAL friend group
As many know, I love side characters, you can expand them and do fun stuff with them, so I decided....
I'll just give her these two as buddies!
Jeremy and Melancholia have few apperances.
Jeremy has a few in the show, mostly cameos and a major one in "League of Evil"
Melancholia literally just appears in Alternaversity (like Piff) and for a way shorter amount of time than Piff. She's just a generic goth gal, not much to her.
These two are kinda blank slates I can do fun stuff with. I can imagine scenes of Jenny perhaps introducing Tiff to them (though they ofc know her because she's a Crust) but they basically get to be Tiffs non-pretentious friends. This also gives Jenny someone ELSE to hang out with, other than just Brad, Tuck and Sheldon. It gives her a secondary friend group of Tiff, Jeremy and Melancholia.
I feel like it adds onto Tiffs character growth, she makes real friends (with Jenny's help) through communication, instead of flexing her mean girl popular streak onto them.
It also makes me recontaxualize some later stuff in the story.
Like when Tiff and Jenny have their big blow up Jeremy and Melancholia try to act like middlemen, but they both realize they can't really fully repair the relationship the two had FOR them.
So when Tiff eventually blows up at Piff and Brit, she goes to Jenny because she WANTS to see Jenny again, maybe remembering words that the two told her.
