He relentlessly teases his siblings however this is mostly Sue and is incredibly lazy, normally preferring to lounge around in his house with just his underpants on. Though he does display more intelligence than he lets on, Axl obviously lacks the will to work and during college he was too lazy to even go to his classes, with all of his teachers urging him to drop out.
