Jude revels in his shuddering lungs and hacking cough. The dehydration headache, the stitch in his side when he runs, and the soreness of his legs from spending his life in cheap shoes- it's all home, it's always been there for him, and it makes him feel confident that he's doing something right. He wants to help others realise that this is the right way to feel, but is smart enough to play some waiting games on the process.
Ann Webber is his best friend and longest term project. He knows/thinks he knows that he'll convert her eventually; he can at least put it on the backburner for their friendship.

As a Candyman, one must be like all candies. And in the world of candy, no sweet is tougher than a Jawbreaker. It lasts for hours. Bismarck has learned to carry the mindset of one, and now resists his pain just the same as a Jawbreaker lasts in the mouth for hours. His gob-- or rather, his self-- cannot be stopped (Ha!). An autopsy or similar investigation reveals that his pastry brain has chunks of jawbreaker strewn about in it; a sort of cake-candy mixture. His skin, too, has tiny pieces of red, blue, and yellow color that are typically seen in jawbreakers.
