I just realized that the characters of your PolyTrio and one of my poly ships between some of my ocs are a bit similar, in terms of basic personality traits that is.
(Before saying anything else, I want to clarify that I did not copy you whatsoever. I created these ocs with the "Extroverted X Introverted X Ambivert" dynamic in mind back in March, and I discovered you in July. Now that I've cleared that up, I'll talk about them a bit so you realize that there are some similarities between your ocs and mine)
The story takes place in the 1960s in Los Angeles, California.
“Sparrow”/Alarik Larsen Davis: The extroverted and flamboyant one. They can also be quite sassy with others and very flirty with their boyfriends. They're also the host of a talk show. They know how polyamorous relationships work because their parents are in a "V" configuration. They're half Danish, half American. They're also the host of a famous talk show. They're a bisexual icon and doesn't know their gender identity, so they dress up in an androgynous way.
Oscar Silvio Caballero: The introverted and shy one. He's a little timid and insecure about himself. He's trans, so that plays into his insecurities. He works in the same show as Alarik, but as a writer and prop manager. He has no prior knowledge about polyamorous relationships, but is willing to learn and be in one. He's a Spanish immigrant and pansexual.
Idris Zaki Shafiq: The ambivert and also slightly mysterious one. He's a bit protective of his sweethearts, but isn't overbearing nor anything like that. He works in the same show as his sweethearts, but is a part of the technical team. He knows a bit about polyamorous relationships because he saw some of them back in his home country. He's an Egyptian immigrant and is pansexual.
It's quite interesting that there are some similarities between your ocs and mine, at least in terms of basic personality traits. I guess we both had similar ideas, lol.
Hope that I didn't bother you with this, and let me know what you think about it!
(Also, in case you didn't know, a "V" configuration (a specific structure in polyamory where one person is in a relationship with two other people, but those two people are not in a relationship with each other)
Dude, your ocs are so cool! I feel like I don't see many talk-show host/set worker ocs, especially in a relationship, so I'm curious on how that kind of dynamic ends up working in your universe! I do also see what you mean about them having similar personalities to my main three dudes, they definitely have traits that make it easier to see who you matched with who lol. It's a cool dynamic though, and it's nice to see someone else enjoy it just as much as I do!
Also I do just wanna say real quick that you never have to worry about me thinking you copied my ocs just because they have some similarities! I don't own personality traits, so it would be kind of lame if I thought you were copying me just because you have ocs that have pretty common traits both in real life and in media. Their personalities may be similar in some aspects, but there's so many other details you included here that makes it clear you created unique characters who are different from mine. As long as you aren't copy-pasting my stories verbatim somewhere and trying to pass it off as your own, I won't think you're plagiarizing at all!
Thank you for sharing your ocs with me, they were super cool! You've got a sick set-up going on, I hope you keep developing these dudes!
