Mack Mackenzie: Difference between revisions

Line 20:
 
===Drawbacks===
Jodie in "[[Partner's Complaint]]" describes himMack as being "bad with money," being overdrawn on his allowance since third grade. Mack finally pays his father back during ''[[Is It Fall Yet?]]'' and has enough money left from his summer job to take Jodie to [[Chez Pierre]] "once."
 
The only other vaguely negative aspect of his character is a tendency to be sarcastic and cynical to a Daria-ish degree when referring to the school, Ms. Li's policies, and some of his classmates and football team members. "I'm the only one on the team who can count by halves," he tells [[Ms. Li]] in "[[Fizz Ed]]." His sharp-edged sarcasm is completely missed by most of those listening to him, particularly Kevin Thompson. An example from "[[I Don't]]":
 
 
::''Mack'': When you hear yourself talk, does it make sense to you?
::''Kevin'': Sometimes.
 
 
Mack participated in the betting pool on [[Mr. DeMartino]]'s upcoming roller-hockey battle in "[[The Big House]]", but so did everyone else, so gambling is not likely one of his vices, if he has any. Fanfic writers have noted that writing an "evil Mack" story is nearly impossible, as there is so little in [[canon]] on which to hook it.
