August Russo

August Flynn Russo is a student at Silver Oak Academy.

Personality
Before anything else, August is a goofy person. He is a big fan of blurting out random puns or jokes which are so bad that they become funny. This is particularly because those kinds of jokes make people laugh the most, and making people laugh/cheering them up is what August likes to do most. He isn't the biggest fan of deep topics, and doesn't like to talk about himself or his family more in depth because of personal reasons.

August is usually found with an excess of energy which is because he has ADHD. This causes him to always want to do things or participate in all kinds of events, and he is usually restless when it comes to doing basically anything. Hyperactivity caused by the ADHD is a big problem for August because he finds it very tough to fall asleep if he didn't absolutely drain his energy, which is why he is either awake throughout the night, or he goes for a few laps around the whole campus to hopefully be able to rest peacefully throughout the night.

Being told that he's annoying never got to August's head, or at least he didn't pay much attention to the people who told him he was annoying. Sadly, a lot of people tell him he is annoying, and he does understand how he can come off that way with all the jokes and the puns, but he doesn't let other people's opinions of him change who he is.

Relationships
August Russo is one of those people most people have heard about from a prank or a silly rumor, but in fact isn't friends with many people. He would like to be friends with people to be able to cheer them up with his silly jokes, seeing how most people these days walk around with frowns instead of smiles.

With Madi
August's friendship with Madi started out on a weird note. It was on the night when he had attended one of her first lacrosse games in which she actually excelled. Well, she might not had excelled at the game, but August was only paying attention to her, and to him, she was brilliant. He absolutely needed to ask her out afterwards, which he did, but his plan soon backfired when she had ruthlessly friendzoned him. Of course, this was okay with him seeing they are still friends, even a year later.

With Bella
High school parties are the best, even though they usually get very out of control, or that might only be the case at Silver Oak. However it is, parties are events where most people meet their best friends and the people they are closest to, which is exactly why a party was where August had met Isabelle Dupont, who is now one of his only friends in the boarding school.
