No bashing, please

What do you like in OC fics that you wish you saw more of? Or what makes an OC fic better to you?

I personally love OCs that seem like real people, if that makes sense. Flawed, but not totally helpless. Good at some things, and not everything.

I'm writing an OC X Canon that I'm worried is turning into a Mary Sue/self-insert so I'm also looking for inspiration for my editing, since my first draft is almost done

Thankfully I'm only in my first draft, but I wrote the female character as having modern-day underwear instead of the ones that were accurate for the time period.

If it weren't for the specifics of the position/amount of clothing they were wearing (which I wasn't sure if it was plausible anyways) then I wouldn't be so frustrated. But now it just doesn't work.

I'm taking this as a lesson to do my research on period-accurate clothing before I start writing

I've had a strong fascination with the Tribe of Rushing Water, both ancient and current recently, and I wanted to do something related to it. I have a concept idea in case there isn't one, but I haven't had much luck with activity in other servers so I was hesitant

Anyways if you know of one, or would be interested in one, please let me know

Preferably semi-lit to novella, and 18+ if possible

I'm already emotional and I'm watching MASH as my nightly therapy sesh, and of course I get to this episode. Wish me luck

Here's mine:

-Character A worshipping Character B like a deity. Religious themes tend to appear when I'm not trying, and I'm not religious.

-This may be just my struggles with characterizing, but both partners being similar enough to each other that they can predict the other easily

-already established relationships, or the characters at least knowing each other in some way beforehand

My dog just had an accidental litter and the puppies all look almost identical to each other.. so far there's 8 of them, and she's not showing any signs of being done yet. I wanted to be able to distinguish them in case they have any health issues, and also to track their weights. We thought about collars, but we think they're way too young for those.

The differences are extremely subtle, and we can't get up close enough to really figure it out yet (mama needs her space)

All 8 seem very healthy so far, and Mom is doing well, AND we have a vet aware of the birth and on standby. So no hate please
