Part 2/5:
One of the most striking aspects of Berni's character is his emotive nature. He is painted as a sensitive soul, one who “wears his heart on his sleeve.” This trait leads to an endearing connection with the audience, as he seemingly navigates a world often marred by emotional armor. The discussion suggests that carrying such defenses is common—a protective measure against being overly vulnerable in a harsh world. However, Berni's lack of this armor makes him relatable as he confronts his fears and challenges.
