Character concepts with my friend! Red is mine, James is theirs. They might change a little but I think these are their final forms mostly

Red is an average guy, active but not a jock, decent student but not a nerd, not popular but not hated either. One day he sustains a pretty bad bite from a stray dog, and he's been feeling a little weird since then... sure it's just a side effect from the rabies shots, probably nothing to worry about

More about James later when they share
