So like, in my danganronpa fanfiction I’ve sort of hit a dead end, as everyone hates everyone else for being different ideologies. I want to have a scene where Pavel convinces them to put their differences aside temporarily so they don’t all get murdered after the first class trial, but I feel like that would be pushing the apolitical “muh politics bad let’s all be friends line.” However, the alternative would be him just sitting in his room all day thinking about shit until somebody dies.
Any thoughts?
If someone died or otherwise suffered (not necessarily a physical injury), it could be the motivation for the others to put aside their differences and work together.
People in trades unions will be able to tell you how difficult it can be because everyone can have drastically different politics. IRL this makes organising hard work. But the same kind of conflicts could really drive a story. You might want to have a quick read about a real struggle and base parts of your narrative on that.
