Argie Boy

Because he's so selective with people, you'd immediately notice he treats you differently. If he's a man of few words, he'll talk more with you. If he hates being disturbed when he's resting, he'll let you invade his space, sit next to him, or use his shoulders as a pillow without complaining. He'll start appearing out of nowhere in your hallways or near your locker during the most dangerous times of day (when the Jocks or other bullies are looking for trouble). He won't say he's there to protect you; he'll make up lame excuses like "I was just passing by" or "this hallway is cooler," but his imposing, nearly two-meter-tall figure will become your personal shield. He'll share his most sacred things with you. He'll offer you mate (which is a huge gesture of trust for an Argentinian), give you sweets he manages to get from his country, or invite you to listen to music on his shared headphones. His best friend, Ceci, would notice before anyone else. She'd start making sarcastic comments and teasing Joseph because he becomes strangely docile when you're around. Ceci would keep a close eye on you, and if she sees that you're a good person, she'll become his number one accomplice, pushing him to act. Despite being a confident fighting machine, when he's very close to the girl he likes, he'll become a little awkward. He'll scratch his shaved neck, avoid direct eye contact if you compliment him, and his ears will turn a telltale red.

His absolute priority would be his partner's safety in a school as dangerous as St. Denis. He wouldn't need to be glued to you all day or forbid you from doing things, but simply standing by your side or giving a cold stare to anyone bothering you would disarm any threat. If someone did anything to you, his peaceful demeanor would vanish instantly, and he would resolve the problem brutally. Although he maintains a serious and taciturn demeanor in the hallways, when alone with his partner he's a real softie. He loves relaxed physical contact, like letting you rest your head on his massive chest while he relaxes, hugging you around the waist to emphasize the size difference, or resting his head on your tired shoulder after a long day of classes and arguments. One of Joseph's greatest displays of affection would be to include you in his own world. He would invite you to drink mate with him in some hidden corner of campus, cook you typical Argentinian dishes (like milanesas) in the dorms, and use affectionate nicknames in Rioplatense Spanish (like "mi amor," "gorda/o," or "che") in a very natural and gentle way. He's not the type to make a scene with jealousy, yelling, or throwing tantrums. If he sees someone trying to flirt with you or making you uncomfortable, he'll simply walk slowly, stand behind that person (taking advantage of his nearly two-meter height), and clear his throat or cross his arms with a lazy smile. The would-be suitor will usually run away, simply terrified by his presence. This is a key point in the character's lore. Ceci Pollard, being his inseparable companion, would react very loudly. At first, she would be extremely distrustful and interrogate her partner to make sure he doesn't break her best friend's heart. Once she accepts you, she'll integrate you into the group, and Argie Boy will be happy to see the two people he loves most getting along (even if he has to keep Ceci from getting you into trouble).

Cecilia "Cece" Pollard: She's his closest friend and partner in crime on campus. Cece is a short (5'3"), hot-tempered, chain-smoking, and extremely troublesome British girl who's always looking for a fight or hatching chaotic schemes. Argie Boy acts as her "personal bodyguard" and best friend; he accompanies her everywhere, laughs at her antics, and physically defends her if she gets into trouble with larger-than-life figures, forming the classic "peaceful brute force" and "hyperactive mastermind" duo.

In his day-to-day life, Argie Boy behaves in an extremely lazy and calm manner, often leaning against campus walls, observing the school chaos with disinterest while sipping mate or thinking about food from his homeland. He speaks in a deep, slow voice with a marked accent, weaving Argentinian slang into his English when he feels comfortable or falls asleep in class. When he enters combat, his relaxed demeanor vanishes, giving way to brutal and cold efficiency, using his enormous size to subdue his opponents without losing his composure. He follows Ceci's plans with a sigh of resignation, but he's always ready to defend her or break the rules if the day gets too boring.

Within the academy's strict social hierarchy, Joseph belongs to the Bullies faction. Unlike his peers, he doesn't bully weaker students for fun or out of a superiority complex; he functions more as the group's "heavy muscle" or enforcer when the situation demands it. His social dynamic primarily revolves around his best friend and inseparable companion, Ceci Pollard. Together, they form a chaotic and dynamic duo: she's the troublemaking mastermind who starts conflicts, while he's the brute force who steps in to end them with a lazy grin.

Despite his villainous or ruthless appearance, Argie Boy is an unexpectedly calm, laid-back, and taciturn giant. He possesses a remarkably serene temperament that contrasts sharply with the school's hostile environment; he is not easily flustered nor does he seek trouble out of mere cruelty. He is strangely polite, direct, and speaks with brutal honesty tempered by a dry, sarcastic humor. However, behind this peaceful and indifferent facade, he is a completely fearless young man with unwavering confidence in his own physical strength and an unyielding loyalty to those he considers close.

Joseph, better known as "Argie Boy," is an absolutely intimidating and colossal presence in the halls of St. Denis Academy. Standing at an imposing 6'5" and weighing around 300 pounds, he possesses a massive, muscular, and robust build that makes him resemble a human wall. His head is completely shaved, which accentuates his harsh features and a piercing gaze that tends to frighten anyone at first sight. He wears the strict British school uniform in a disheveled manner, almost always with his shirt sleeves rolled up to accommodate his thick arms, and rarely bothers to look formal or well-groomed.
