And also, Zarethra also changing soul information and more the longer both coexist, as their soul despite beign 1, is still 2 in 1, and is fusing more and more until becoming truly 1, and in the process, both affect each other, and this changes behaviour and more aspects progressively.
What is Zeriel's personality? And mentality?
Zeriel's personality is based on Asriel, with Sans parts and factors. Zeriel's mentality is Asriel's childish behaviour, along Sans' laziness. After losing his feelings, Flowey parts activate, and Zeriel's behaviour is way similar to Flowey when things are Genocide related, or Suffering and/or pain related, and also changed laugh to be almost exact as Flowey's laugh with still laughing a little like Sans and childish.

They're married via prolongued time being together. They consider each other as lovers, one each other, and husband and wife in a differnt way.
How complex is UltSans as character?
UltSans is actually the most complex and twisted character, but also the most simple and strange one.
Are Zeriel and Zarethra legally married?
Zeriel and Zarethra are actually married, not in legal ways but yes in legal terms. Under the legal term or coexist together for such prolongued period of time, living together, makes them legally married, but their real marriage in relationship begins when UltSans after losing Papyrus, reaches to finally notice her, and so, in the same day they complete their marriage. At first, only Zarethra would say they are married, while Zeriel wouldn't be aware of that and try to understand while still developing; but after the required time, Zeriel would recognize the marriage, accepting it as actually real, but still not capable of being as good as wants to be.
"As Fissure[1] and Error[2] have a favourite AU, does UltSans have a favorite AU?"
Canonically speaking, he doesn't have a favorite AU. For the moment, StoryFell is the temporary favorite, and FellShift Gold can also be used as favorite. But no Fanon version does actually have a favorite AU at the moment.
With further development, there will be a more clear view, and an AU or Timeline will be chosen as favorite. But for now as there isn't, StoryFell is the favorite, and not to visit or view, just because StoryFell Chara.
[1] Fissure's favorite AU is Underswap, all for the mayonnaise.
[2] Error's favorite AU is UnderNovela, never went there, but observes it.
