Relevant requirements for drawing lines:

1, don't write the background, only highlight the main body. China's excellent classical novels and classical operas have this feature: he does not write the background, but focuses on describing the characters. Highlight the character through portrait description or short dialogue.

2, do not require details, only vivid.
