Main Characters
Maura
Maura
A somewhat stubborn yet intelligent girl who ends up as Paul when pulled from their home dimension, and the very likely reason Dylan hasn’t keeled over from fear yet.
- Big Beautiful Man: Seen as this by Dylan.
- Big Guy, Little Guy: The little guy to Dylan’s big guy.
- Big Ol' Eyebrows: Ends up with these at the end of Chapter One, and is stuck with them for the rest of the story.
- Character Tics: Carries around an unlit cigarette in her mouth.
- Deadpan Snarker: Cracks a few of these every now and then.
- Fatand Skinny: The fatter one of the two.
- Formerly Fit: Was a lot less pudgy as Maura then as Paul.
- Meaningful Name/Stealth Pun: Maura is also the name of a city in Norway, which just so happened to be where they end up.
- Perma-Stubble: And Maura is not too happy about it.
- Stout Strength: Hey, Paul’s in the army.
- The Bear: It’s possible to interpret Paul as this, and by extension, Maura.
- Weight Woe: Quickly brought up in Chapter Four in a throwaway line.
Dylan
Dylan
Gentle as a lamb (And as anxious as one too) Dylan is Maura’s best friend who ends up as Patryck after quickly dozing off in class.
- Big Guy, Little Guy: The big guy to Maura’s little guy.
- Character Tics: She tugs on her bangs whenever she’s stressed.
- Fatand Skinny: The skinny one.
- Improbable Hairstyle: Of the anachronistic variation, as she never puts gel in it and it just flips up on its own and never goes down.
- Lean and Mean: Largely subverted in that Maura is far more aggressive, although Dylan can have her moments of snark as well.
- Long-Haired Pretty Boy: Has to tie it in a ponytail to keep it from bugging her neck.
- Mr. Fanservice: Is largely portrayed as being absolutely gorgeous in universe, mostly when the story enters Maura’s perspective for a bit.
- Nice Guy: As sweet as they come.
- Tall Darkand Handsome: Fairly tan, and definitely taller than Maura.
- Tall Darkand Snarky: Slips into this territory sometimes.
