He’s also a liar by nature, which would naturally rank him lower. Sure, he locks Joel to him in a horrifying spiral of magic that pretty much ruins both their lives, but remember–nefariousness has no weight on this list. Paul’s heart is frozen solid for a while, but even then everything he does has a reason and he has no qualms about explaining those reasons to you. Rafe wears his heart on his sleeve and is always sure everyone around him knows where he stands. If you’ve read Just Perfect, then you know why Cody ranks rock-bottom. So now he’s on the bottom of a totally arbitrary, written-by-the-whim-of-the-author list on straightforwardness. “Thank you.”Īnd he’s like that through most of the book. Now that he wasn’t touching me, I felt…oh, God, I felt more alone than I ever had in my life. I grabbed the top of the couch with my right arm and pulled myself up to watch him dress. “I’m making you uncomfortable, aren’t I?” He left the couch and searched out his briefs. If I had known he’d remember every damned thing I said, I would have tried harder to stay away from such trite clichés. “You always told me that willpower could accomplish anything.” Jesse is in the bottom three because through most of Chasing Winter what he says and what he’s thinking are totally out of sync. So, while Spade is arguably the most trustworthy character on the list, he waits till damned-near the end of the first book to tell Ace what he is, which Ace doesn’t take well. Last, straightforwardness does not mean trustworthy. So whatever nefarious schemes a character might have going on (I’m looking at you, Draven), they don’t count for anything in this list. Whenever Keith–who is gigantic and endowed with freaky super strength–steps out of line, Jesse never hesitates to knock him right back into it. Though, really, when you think about it, Jesse is plenty badass. You might be thinking, “What?! How is Jesse so far down on the list, and how is WALKER square in the middle?” If you are thinking that, what follows is what passes for logic on my end:įirst, this list only gauges straightforwardness, and does not take badassitude into account. Main characters in my finished and published stories, ranked in order of straightforwardness, starting with the most straightforward and ending with the least: Rafe Dirisio.
