I'm still early in the game at the moment of writing this comment, but I think the writing for Lukas is a bit off. He feels so shy and formal, just looking at his dialogue I'd assume he was a woman. It's especially weird because, judging from his clothes, he seems like a very casual and outgoing person.
This goes for all/most of his dialogue, but I was especially taken out of the story by him telling Kit "That's so kind of you!" when Kit gives him a free croissant.
This is just not how men talk.
???
Calm down. I never implied masculinity isn't a spectrum or that men can't behave in many different ways, nor am I advocating for a "hyper dominant macho" guy.
The fact that you're even bringing this up shows you don't understand what I'm saying.
Genuinely, how many men have you heard say "That's so kind of you!" before? Especially to something as (relatively) trivial as getting a free croissant. Especially a guy who dresses like Lukas and plays sports.
I just pointed out that my reaction was the opposite, I'm very calm lol it just felt curious to me. As for the sentence, I myself tend to be thankful when people do nice things for me, and I'm not feminine, so it doesn't stand out that much for me. But again, it's just curious how we both have very different perspectives on what's "normal" for a man to behave like.
