* EnergeticAndSoftSpokenDuo:
** Deconstructed, along with LovingBully. In canon, ShrinkingViolet Candace is paired with the campy Julius, but the story adds a dose of RealityEnsues and explores their relationship more. They're ''not'' actually good for one another. Julius doesn't mean to be rude, but he's still a jerk who invades Candace's personal space and critiques her. Julius' traumatic behavior as children led to Candace becoming cripplingly shy and gaining a SpeechImpediment.
** Played straight with Candace and Luke, the resident HotBlooded GenkiBoy. Luke may be loud but he has a gentle nature which mixes well with Candace's shy and sweet personality.
