Mendelson Shape shows love for songs and rhymes. He sings a scary lullaby to Candy Quackenbush on their first encounter. He can be seen enjoying reading spooky nursery rhymes later on, in the library of the Twelfth Tower on the island of Gorgossium. One can conclude from his thoughts on writing "a song that the Devil sings", that songs play large role in his being.
Shape is not very social, being more of a loner. When stichling Ignacio offered Shape assistance in doing various grim business for Carrion, Mendelson responded that the only person whose company he liked was himself. On the other hand he eagerly engages in conversation with Candy during the flight on a giant moth, so generally unfriendly Mendelson shows signs of need for socializing. Looks like Shape's unwillingness to contact is more consequence of the role he chose for himself, then of natural will to drive away others.
