For Maui, you can focus on his heroic side but also show his flaws. Maybe he's a bit overconfident at times. For Tamatoa, emphasize his love for shiny things and his self - centered nature, but also give him a bit of a soft side that only Maui gets to see.
If your puppy 'ate' something unusual, like a sock or a small toy, it can be a very scary situation. The first time my puppy ate something he shouldn't have, it was a small piece of plastic. I immediately called the vet. Thankfully, it passed through his system without any problems. But it was a nerve - wracking experience.
If your dog ate a classic novel, don't panic right away. Some dogs might pass the paper without much trouble. However, keep an eye on its behavior. If it starts acting strangely, like being lethargic or having trouble digesting food, it's time to seek professional help from a vet.
Good writing style also matters. It should be engaging from the start, with a strong opening that grabs the reader's attention. The dialogue between Tamatoa and the reader character should be natural and flow well. For instance, Tamatoa's boastful remarks should be written in a way that is both true to his character and entertaining. If the story can make the reader feel a range of emotions, from excitement to anticipation to maybe a bit of fear (because Tamatoa can be a bit intimidating), then it's a great fanfiction.
It's hard to say without more context. She could be anyone from a friend who took over a conversation you were having about a story, to a classmate who maybe used your story idea for her own work.
Just smile and share a little summary of the book with her. Maybe she'll join you in reading it later. For example, if it's a book about adventures, you can tell her some exciting parts.
