I'm really not sure what advice I can give... When I play my males I try to think of how a guy would act. And when I do my bad boys I have to figure out why they are the way they are before I can get their personality. I use personality traits of guys that I know, males for tv and males from books to influence my writing. I don't think that really helps. I don't know how I do my guys really. :( While I like Ariel, I cannot say I am in love with her. I do not much care for the way she has turned out to be while, quiet and almost needy... It was not what I had pictured for her but it's the way she turned out some how. I want to changed her personality but I'm not sure how. I'd say let's let things be until we figure out how we want to direct hook and Ariel. I have an idea but it's kind of silly and troublesome. We could just start Hook and Ariel over, maybe even swap character...
