@Shatatata I think maybe you should be concern on how you view things, cause honestly if that's what you see in him, you probably messed in the head. Literally the whole book shows how badass the uke were and I never see him as a "shy like a dumb way" but more of a reserve adult with mature but quiet personality. The way he squints his eyes is also and intentional detail which I really like and actually add more to his personality.
