When I look at Cal and Simon, I see diametric opposites on the Scale of Man, which interests me a lot. Man with an infinite symbol tattoo vs man who willingly traps himself in his stupid suit... it almost writes itself. And yet for all their differences, they seem to have two core experiences in common: 1) being the oldest sibling and having to take care of their younger siblings under adverse conditions; and 2) being separated from their spouse across the Veiled/unVeiled gap.
I am really interested in exploring a friendship between them that perhaps starts off contentious (I can see Cal good-naturedly ribbing Simon and then getting rudely rebuffed because Simon doesn't understand Cal), that then grows in depth and confidence over the course of the game? Particularly sharing their thoughts/commiserating about the big Divorce Anvil hovering over both of their heads.
