A soul was at odds with itself and split in half, becoming two different people. Each half has been unintentionally corroding and corrupting the other since their birth -- but both are inevitably drawn to one another to remain together, as it should have been from the start.
Lewis Puckett was a problematic child growing up. His behavior was a symptom of what would later be diagnosed as a personality disorder, making him increasingly paranoid, violent and reclusive. He distanced himself from his family and ran away from home on more than one occasion, brought back to helpless parents and a neglectful brother every time. It was in his mid-twenties, when anyone should have a proper job and projects for the future, that he began to blame all of his problems and unsuccessful life on Giles, fueling the delusion that he was in fact a doppelganger posing as a false brother to eventually replace Lewis' life and claim it as his own. A confrontation between the siblings ended in a violent attack -- it was only then that their parents finally put an end to years of feeble discipline and helplessness and made the arrangements to initiate Lewis in some proper treatment, sheltering him in their home the entire time. It look a long while to figure out the right kind of medication to balance out his disorder, with many ups and downs. Lewis believed any relation he had with his brother had been completely severed and grew to accept that with shame and guilt -- sometimes resentment, towards himself and Giles. Now, older and independent, Lewis constantly sways back and forth between a pursuit for normalcy and exploitation of his freedom, mostly in the form of encounters with people he never expects to see again. Lewis lives with the constant, nagging feeling that his family and acquaintances all expect his mental health to decline again, ready to take him back in and repeat the process that took place years back. Lewis is harmless, maybe even sheepish at times. His head still buzzes with thoughts tugging at his paranoia, even (or especially) as he tries to make amends with his brother. He both desperately seeks and fears approval.
