Author's Note for Perfect Styles
Perfect holds his tongue as tightly as he holds his cleaver. He is a survivor from Mo Dickens’s slagerhaus over to the proprietorship of Cotter Sullivan on an account of his butcher skills. Perfect wants nothing more than to carve meat, and he is shrewd enough to support Carlos in exchange for a return to the old ways and a clean and heat-free establishment.
In Perfect’s case, the name came before the character, and I built him from there. Perfect is the strong, quiet type in the mold of Joe Gargery, though I used Joe as inspiration for Samwell Heap too.
