a.) I wasn't thinking about this at the time, but after creating Adad, I realized retrospectively that I had kinda fashioned him after my next to youngest cousin, whom I shall call 'T' for the purposes of this answer. T is a very adorable, loving kid. When he was a few years younger, something he would do is, when upset about something and couldn't get out what he wanted to say, his default phrase was "I love you." Total Adad. XD As he's gotten older, T has been showing an interest in science, and is into typical boy things, like superheroes and the like. Nevertheless, he's still an incredibly loving, big-hearted boy, which is perfectly like Adad. <3

b.) Adad's capacity for love. He loves everyone and everything, and he's not araid to show it. If you ever need a pick-me-up, hang around Adad for a while. He'll be sure to brighten your mood. <3

c.) While Adad's eternal optimism is a strength, it's also a weakness for him. It's tough to be forever hopeful in the face of bleak circumstances, such as, say someone who's dying of a terminal disease, believing a miracle or something will occur right up to the very end, and then not having it followed through. It's tough on him, and if it happens too many times in a row, it starts to really get to him. That's why he ends up falling in Dis--under such terrible conditions, with no real relief, his optimism eventually just collapses.

d.) I dunno that I'd say it's easy to write Adad, but, it's more 'comfortable'. Dialogue seems to flow very easily for him, which is really nice for me, considering I don't think I write the greatest dialogue in the world. He's just a fun character to write, and I never tire of doing stories with him.

e.) "I Love You, Goodnight" is by far the story where Adad's at his most, um, Adady. XD It shows just how big of a heart he has, and how, even in the face of a lonely, horrifying death, he can still find a glimmer of light and comfort, and draw from it.

f.) I always love doing stories featuring Adad and the people he loves, be they his Mum and Dad, his Patchwork Family (Liah in particular), Liwet, Nao, or others. I'd like to do some stories involving his relationship with Liah, which is varied amongst settings and wonderfully adorable. I'd also love to explore more of his relationship with Liwet. ^_^
