CN I think it might be worth your while holding back your cynicism for a while. The story has barely begun, how do you know it is an yawn-o-holic plot?
Makes me wonder if you are the author of this story under the guise of Quiet Thoughtful. And your comment is aimed at getting people to defend the story? Now, now that is not very clever is it?

Apologies, some of your cynicism seems to have rubbed off on me.

That's called being stupid, not cynic. Worse yet, you could have called it "fraudulent self deprecating sympathy shit" which I don't do. I call it as I see it.

I honestly don't want a talented writer like QuiteThoughtful to write Mary Sue and Gary Stu as her main leads. Currently, they reek of being like that. So it was just a friendly jolt to wake up and smell the coffee - you know? like writer to writer sort of thing?

Ok, ok CN! point taken. No need to be so shirty, Mr.
If you do want to encourage a writer like QT, why begin with rubbishing her plot to give her jolt? Ok she's brought in the Mary Sue and Gary Stu type characters, but how do you know where she's going to take them when they haven't even begun the journey?

Btw, what if she cocks a snook at your friendly 'writer to writer sort of thing' and takes them down the cliched path that you are turning your nose up at?

@CynicalNoob:

Point taken. Most stories in this world can be categorized under one large mold. Simplistically put, there are people and then there are emotions and with these emotions comes dynamics with other people. Every story essentially cover these aspects. Now lets see the story which is most told/written/seen/played/heard - relationship between a man and woman in the perimeter of love. So technically, a plethora of stories fall under the umbrella of "love story" or "drama/romance" genre. This being the case the story that you are writing is no more than a cliche cause all you are going to write is about Arnav and Khushi and their dynamics using emotions as tools. And I am doing exactly the same.
In this process however I do agree that we tend to go overboard and prescribe to the super-noble and super-awesome thought process; a.k.a our own wet dreams which results in the characters becoming Gary Stu and Mary Sue. Do you think I am going in that direction? If you think so, then thanks for the heads up and an unnecessary warning. Cause you haven't seen a thing yet.

Good luck with writing your morally ambiguous slightly dark hero and soon-to-be washed up door mat heroine. Unless of course, she becomes the cliched pathetic woman who is loved by every male in the story.

I am just saying that cause you know...writer to writer thing that we are have going on between us? Coffee smells good?
