Character Comparison: Loyd and Codi

The two characters I chose to compare are Loyd and Codi. One of the differences between the two is that Codi is a lot more reserved than Loyd. When she saw him again for the first time since high school, it took her a while to get comfortable being around him, but eventually she started to open up more. Another difference I see is that Loyd has a better understanding about what his goals are in life then Codi does... she is still struggling to find a place in the world that she fits in and isn't quite sure what path she wants to take in her life. Also, Loyd has a much more stable family life than Codi. Although she is very close with her sister, she feels a lot of distance from her own father. Lastly, Codi and Loyd are different from each other because Codi is sensitive to animals such as when she tried to save the coyotes and she doesn't agree with Loyd's cockfighting, where he wins money off of two cocks fighting to their death, although he eventually quits. One of the similarities that they both have experienced loss in their lives... Codi lost her mother and sister and Loyd lost his brother. Lastly, another similarity between them is that they both enjoy nature and the outdoors. A lot of the time they spent together was outside such as when they watched the sunset and went on the adventure and went in the hot springs. Although Codi and Loyd have a lot of differences, they continue to possess a very close relationship.
