Currently the Accountant character sounds a bit pathetic – not relatable.? ‘Stumbling’ into a deathmatch/Battle Royale without reading the signs lowers character intelligence.? Luke Skywalker may not have had the courage at the start to save the princess, but he seemed like a bright kid!
So, Accountant and Assassin become unlikely allies. Reminded me of the film Zombieland when I first read it.? Coward character [teams up with]? Tough guy.
