Why are they Like That? (First Fifteen Lives of Harry August Characters)
Harry: The first man who ever hugged him was also torturing him into insanity, which created a permanent link in his brain between abuse and homoeroticism
Virginia: The monotony of being immortal gets to her every few hundred years, so she periodically decides to let the world burn (at least she's self-aware)
Charity: Mom Friend who found out a boy broke Harry's heart and immediately developed an unquenchable bloodlust about it
Vincent: Wasn't taught the meaning of the word no as a child; spent the next 700 years refusing to learn
Akinleye: Kissed a girl and DIDN'T like it
Jenny: Maxed out Intelligence, used Wisdom as a dump stat
Rory: Saw the horrors of war, decided he deserved anything and everything as compensation
Patrick: Grief-stricken over his dead wife, still has to raise the weirdest child known to man (he tried his best, okay?)
