About

Marshall’s day job is being a secret agent. He presents himself to others to be intimidating and skeptical, but on the inside he’s actually really silly, peppy, and giddy. He spends almost every night in a comedy/karaoke club because it’s a place where he can be content and let out small laughs but still be seen there by others as rough around the edges. He hides his giddiness out of the risk of losing his job. If he starts being peppy again, he could start being that way a bit while on the job, and he fears that “childish behavior” could get him fired. Plus, while on the job, he has seen a lot of gruesome and terrible things, so it has worn out and dulled down a lot of his inner happiness. It still exists inside him, of course, but it would take someone with patience and optimism to bring him out of his dulled shell…
