Okay, okay... *jumps off cliff*

Alright, let me just jump off the cliff, maybe the bandwagon is still underneath... I dunno how well I'll be able to answer these for my characters, but I can try. :)

Give me one of the characters from my story and I will tell you:
* How I feel about this character
* All the people I ship romantically with this character
* My non-romantic OTP for this character
* My unpopular opinion about this character
* One thing that will happen to this character in the future of my story.

1. How do I feel about Sal? Well, I utterly adore the sim, and I love the character and then again I must also hate him for what he does... He's tough to write, or rather, tough to outline about. Once I know what is going to happen, his speech patterns and such come pretty easily. The toughness comes from the fact that I'm trying to reach contradictory goals with him: I want him to be the villain, and a dangerous one at that, but I still want him to be likeable, or at least somehow understandable, so that people would somewhat feel like "I might not accept what he does, but I sort of see why he can't not do it". In my head, he's actually a perfectly likeable guy, whose dangerous features come from his disappointment in love and inability to give up (that's a feature he's always had, but it has become stronger through all the things that have happened to him). In my head, his mind broke when Author died, and since then he's been obsessed with getting her back, without realizing what he may be doing to others and himself in his attempts.

2. Sal is a bit tough to ship with anyone, due to his obsession on Author. I didn't ever really ship him with Author either, because they never were long-time compatible, and Author belongs with Curty, full stop. Before Sal can become shippable with anyone, he'd have to overcome his obsessive love for Author, and well... you guessed it, not about to happen.

3. It's sort of sad that I can only think of the negative kinds of non-romantic OTPs for Sal. Aadam, because after he found out about his father, the two of them became really close, and with Aadam's trouble with accepting that his parents would never be together, and all his youth he had been lied to, the two of them understood each other in a way that others couldn't. And Komei, because of his anti-legacy (and somewhat also anti-playable) attitudes. Sal has had some bitter thoughts about legacies himself, and can the two can very well understand where the other one is coming from. Not that either of these relationships have led to good things, but still.

4. I don't know if there is a popular opinion about Sal, but... In my head, was he not so damn crazy, he'd actually be a nice guy.

5. Salahuddin will, in not so distant future, come to meet someone he hasn't seen for a long time.
