Aliethen asked:
With the cast list coming out, it was revealed that a lot of characters who played opposite each other in storylines were in fact played by the same person. How did you balance that? Was it ever hard?
I felt that deserved its own thread. Discuss!

Mostly I think that was a product of other players not wanting to step on toes and so the player depicting the ship was the only person showing it happening. Occasionally I or others would bounce ideas off each other in those cases, to inject a sense of the unvoiced romantic partner as more than a cipher.
