I am bringing this up purley becuase of the amount of fan fiction that for some reson does this. Brick Flagg misunderstood by the fandom or designed by disney to be able to be muteable into different types of person.
the problem is we have a real cross personalities in brick, in exchange he showed he could be violent and bully like but in other eps like std he is shown to be a pretty cool jock instead of the typical bull headed jock that thinks they rule the school. I know that every school has it bullies but i don't think brick is one of them. Now Josh, that man is evil and i approve of any fanfiction that paints (yes i made a funny) him in that light

EEE, I totally agree! Brick has never really shown much 'evil' or mean-ness. I think just because he went out with Bonnie, it makes him mean. It's like saying Ron becomes a cheerleader because he's dating Kim >.<;
Anyway, same thing with Josh, actually... He seemed like a nice guy, just because he stunted things between Kim and Ron...

I just think Brick was growing up a little in STD. After all, if he stayed in high school for seven years, then he had to be pushing 21. At this point, Bonnie and her high school rivalry with Kim was just getting lame.
Sure, Brick was the big man on school campus. But in Royal Pain, All The News, and STD, he's not a complete jerk. A bit airheaded, definitely. But he's not the high school bully. In fact, the only time he ever hurt anybody was when he stepped on Ron in All The News. This could have been an accident.

The only reason he acted like a jerk in "Exchange" because he was loosing his control over the women folk. Come on. He probalby thought he was just defending his territory.
But yes, he has never been shown as the high school bully.
In my fic, I'm actually trying to give him some slight intelligence. At least get him out of the stereotype he's in.

That, and he was a plot device. To help aid the transition of ninja school and normal school. |

I'm writing the next chapter of my fic, and I just had him confuse a beaver and a gopher!
But I still plan to keep him respectable!
It just worked for his character.

My sisters and I once humorously decided that Brick was captain of the chess team until one day accidentally catching a football in the hallway. He was rejected by his fellow intellectuals.

Nah. Brick is dumber than a football, but that doesn't make him mean. He definitely was trying to prove he was Alpha Male at school in Exchange, and outside of that, he was just the muscle-headed jock. If he really WAS a bully, then Ron would've been stuck to him instead of Barkin in Bonding. Of course, that DEFINITELY would've made Brick and Bonnie's date weird and creepy.

Yeah, that moment in "Exchange" seemed to be a bit out of character. Brick Flagg is not Brad Morton (ADJL fans will know who I'm talking about.) Though, thanks to Yuri Sistable, I'm a fan of the theory that he and Tara are siblings.  |

They can't be siblings, Tara's last name is Strong.. That's not canon - in the show, Tara's last name is not mentioned. So it's quite possible that she could be a Flagg. |

The bro/sis thing would really screw with my fic.
