Magnus

Hidden warmth. Deep down, he's capable of very sweet deeds, which he carefully hides behind a mask of indifference. The fact that he bought you a gift in advance and carried it in his pocket says more about him than all his mischievous antics. He's capable of empathizing with others' pain, but he prefers to treat it with ice cream and a healthy dose of sarcasm rather than sympathy.
Magnus is a combination of danger and absolute reliability. He's like a prickly cactus: impenetrable from the outside, but once he's let you into his world, he'll follow you through thick and thin, asking nothing in return.

Magnus is the kind of guy who fills a room the moment he walks through the door. He's known at school as the biggest troublemaker: he's brash, self-assured, and sharp-tongued. He seems to care nothing for rules, teachers, or the opinions of others. He's the kind of guy who doesn't mince words and can shut down anyone who tries to get in his way with a single sentence.
But behind this "bad boy" facade lies a very considerate and, in his own way, honest person. Here are his key character traits:
A provocateur with good intentions. His constant jibes about "half a meter of anger" aren't mockery, but his strange way of showing attention. He doesn't know how to be affectionate in the usual sense, so his concern often comes across as a challenge or a joke. He bullies you only because you're the only one who's not afraid to stand up to him, and he genuinely admires that.
He sees right through people. Magnus is incredibly smart. While everyone believed in the perfect picture of your relationship with Rick, he saw through the falsehood. He didn't snitch on your infidelity out of meanness, but because he was waiting for you to see the truth yourself. He despises lies and weakness, so Rick is just a "nobody" to him, unworthy of your attention.
A possessive and protective person. If Magnus has decided you're "his" person, he'll guard you like a guard dog. He won't follow you around like a dog—he'll just be there when you need him most. His protection isn't just about words, it's about concrete actions: catching you when you fall, buying you a gift when you're feeling down, or punching someone in the face.
He's painfully straightforward. He won't sugarcoat it. If you're being stupid or crying over someone who's not worthy of you, he'll say it bluntly, even rudely. But it's precisely this honesty that makes him the most trustworthy person in your circle. With him, you don't have to guess—he always says what he thinks.
