Blues Devil/Amber is still a relatively new dynamic in my head, so I’ll answer for Melamber

What do the like best about their partner?

Melmord really likes Amber’s quiet confidence, how she seems to command attention and respect without doing much that’s genuine in a way that’s probably refreshing.  She’s also one of the few people he sees on a daily basis who isn’t directly associated with the band.  I imagine they’re both an oasis from the band in each other’s eyes.

Amber likes how she can relax around Melmord.  First it was because he’s her bodyguard so she could relax in that way, but as they grew closer Amber got more comfortable letting her guard down around him as well.  It took four months until she felt comfortable speaking to him.  He makes her laugh.  She likes that too, even if it makes her sad sometimes.

- Do they let each other get away with things that would normally bother them?

Melmord is contractually obligated to let Amber do what she wants, for the most part.  Besides that, he’s okay with her not always paying attention to him, because he knows she’s not intentionally ignoring him -- she’s just quiet.  Also, married.  I can’t think of anything Melmord could do to annoy Amber that she doesn’t already have to deal with from Seth on a more extreme level.

- Do they bring out the best in each other, or the worst? Do they have a fatal flaw?

Melmord does help to bring out more of Amber’s natural personality, but it takes a while for her to warm up to that.  Amber tends to bring out Melmord’s more professional side, because taking care of her is his job.  Their fatal flaw is the institution of marriage.

- Any special dreams or goals they have as a couple? Any heartbreaks? Regrets?

Amber doesn’t want to have regrets, because she still loves her husband and her son.  She feels more free around Melmord and a selfish part of her dreams about being able to be with him, but part of her worries that doing so will only cause the cycle to repeat itself.  Seth was her first serious relationship.  What if this is just how it’s going to be for her, no matter who she’s with?  Because she loves Seth, and maybe that scares her so she’s attaching herself to another man who pays attention to her, as a possible escape route in case it doesn’t work out.  Maybe the underlying issue is her, not the men in her life.  Maybe Melmord is just her bodyguard, and she should leave it like that.
