Deadly Premonition

It’s anything but easy to notice. Agent York’s mannerisms make it easy to get distracted, and the fact that he’s clueless about the effect he has on others doesn’t help matters at all. It’s mostly the fact that he’s serious when most people would be lighthearted, and lighthearted when most people would be serious. He doesn’t get that it’s inappropriate, either.
But he really does honestly care about the investigation. From running between seemingly unrelated leads to the way he deals with the sheriff’s office and the townsfolk, you might think he’s just treating this like a game, but every now and then, his serious side will show through. When prompted, he shows concern for other people, and even if he does need prompting, his concern is actually genuine. He’ll say things like he’s ‘here until the end’, and it’s one of the few cases where he’s appropriately serious. And his actions…he does what he can for the people of the town. Their concerns and problems are all equally valid and treated with respect, no matter how odd or mundane.
