Hmm, okay, pick the hard ones why not, but okay. I do tend to vary my style a lot, I think, although that's more because it's really easy for me to accidentally absorb canon style? When I'm not deliberately letting myself mimic a particular there is a particular style I end up in, I think, although since it's just what I do naturally it's really hard for me to conceptualize it concretely. Something like this:

"Actually, stuff is happening RIGHT NOW," POV character said, looking over at Other Character.

Other Character looked back. "Do you really think so?" Other Character shrugged, and then looked down. There is no way to know what they were looking at since there has been no description of anything at all in the story.

Actually, something did happen. Character From An Entirely Different Fandom walked in. It was actually very meta. "There should probably be three-way sexual tension here, but actually, let's just hug it out," Character From An Entirely Different Fandom said, looking back and forth between the other two.

"That actually sounds good to me." POV character shrugged, looking thoughtful but still not actually revealing any emotional depth.

They hugged.

Suddenly the story ended before anything actually happened, even though it clearly seemed to be leading up to actual plot.

The end.
