August being Bae right I do not see it. I’m not sure if he is Pinnochio either but there are more hints to he being Pinnochio than Bae. We know not enought of bae to know how he will be as an adult. There is also good evidence of August being the white knight. In fact there is a good case for that. He does have a very close connection to the book and did do something to it. If anything if not any of the above than guardian of the book is a safe bet for now at least.
