When meeting someone for the first time, your first impression may or may not be right. The same goes for characters. Like real people, characters don’t always perceive each other correctly. Sometimes we can think of someone as ‘bossy’ when they’re just trying to be helpful. That expands far beyond first impressions.
As an exercise: List each character and how they view the others in your story. Consider what causes this impression and how it’s different from others’ views on the same character.
