See you next time

Now the story has introduced the event and the three main characters.

Think of three people you know that have interesting group dynamics (it could be you and two friends, but it's usually easier to observe other people).

How are they different from each other? How are they friends? What unique quality does each person bring to the group? 

Look at a story that you've read that has friends (or a group working together because of a situation) and look at the ways in which they're different.

What are those differences? Are they different personalities? Skillsets? Both? How does each character's qualities help tell the story?
