As much as Auzzimaks attempts to project an imposing aura, he is a deeply sensitive and kind old man at heart. One of his worst kept secrets is his love of sappy, trashy romance novels. This particular interest exemplifies his romantic sentimentality, a feature of his personality he tries to hide from public view to maintain appearances. His partners and friends know him for who he really is.

I often draw him looking exhausted, or like a sourpuss, but I felt it necessary to draw him looking sweet for once.
