personality evaluated.

PROTECTIVE;;
Dillon was born with the protective instincts of a father that's for sure. The people close to him are very important to Dillon so he is very protective of his friends and family. To his chick friends, when a new guy comes along Dillon is always the first to check the guy out and give his approval. Because nothing’s worse than having a friend have her heart broken because of some asshole. Dillon has lent his shoulder to anyone who needs it too many times To his guy friends, well, they're his buds and no one messes with them without going through Dillon first. His friends sometimes find Dillon's protectiveness overbearing, but it's something that Dillon can't help. He's just naturally very protective of the people he cares for. And in the end, they always end up thanking him because Dillon knows best (but not always).

PERFECTIONIST;;
Whether it be organizing his portfolio, or one of his drawings/photographs, it all has to be perfect. Dillon is borderline OCD when it comes to organizing and his artwork. God help you if you bump his arm when he's working on his latest sketch, or snagging a snapshot at the most perfect angle. He will literally snap on you, no joke. Dillon takes his art very seriously and when it's ruined, he gets angry. Although, Dillon will give most of the people he knows a warning about this trait of his. Don't take it personally because he snaps on even his best friends when they're the cause of a less than perfect drawing, sculpture, photo, whatever. It's just that, he has very little patience when his mind is concentrated on what he's doing.

CHARMING;;
Dillon doesn't charm the pants off of women on purpose. It just sort of happens. But really, is it that hard to believe? What with those gorgeous eyes and charming smile. Dillon doesn't use cheesy lines to pick up girls, or tell a girl what she wants to hear in order to get into her pants, no. Most of the time Dillon is blissfully unaware of how naturally flirty he is around women, and even though most women seem to drool over him he is far from cocky. In fact, he's humbled every time he's complimented on his looks. Dillon is a natural ladies man and has enough confidence in himself to go up and strike up a conversation with any beautiful lady he sees. He definitely knows how to treat a woman right, that's for sure.

LOYAL;;
Bros before hoes. That is the motto Dillon lives by. He doesn't care how hot you are, how large your chest is or how luscious your lips are, his friends will always come first. Dillon is absolutely nothing without his friends, so he makes sure to be as loyal as possible to them. Backstabbing isn't something that he does, at least not knowingly, and never will Dillon choose a girl over his friends. This can sometimes 'cause a conflict when Dillon is in a relationship, often ditching his girl to hang with the buds. But that problem doesn't come up too often because Dillon doesn't date that much. He hasn't the time, nor does he feel like putting in the effort required for a relationship.

ROWDY;;
Dillon is easily riled up in good and bad ways. He can be a pretty loud guy and loves stirring up trouble. He's the guy who will provoke two other guys to fight, gather a crowd, and start taking bets on who the winner will be. He himself doesn't get into many fights, at least not when he's sober, but he loves watching a good fight. When he's had a little too much to drink, Dillon is very excitable and one small thing can set him off. But the thing is, that one little thing that sets him off probably didn't really bug him that much, he just likes starting fights. And he'll often be seen leaving a fight laughing at the thrill of it all. But on a better note, fights aren't the only thing he gets riled up for. Something as simple as a football game on television is enough to get him screaming and throwing popcorn everywhere. You'd think he was actually watching the game from inside the stadium the way he watches sports at home.

CHOOSY;;
Even though it might seem like it, Dillon doesn't stick his dick into anything with genitalia. He is actually very controlled with his sexual acts and choosy when it comes to women he sleeps with. Dillon goes clubbing with his friends to have a good time rather than to find a random girl to sleep with. You can say that he's a bit shallow when it comes to women, but it's not to the point where he just ignores the girls he thinks are ugly. But for the most part, he's not interested in sleeping with random women every night of his life. And although it gets very tempting sometimes, that's not very important to him. Granted he does have an occasional one night stand usually due to over drinking and an incredibly irresistible woman or man (on occasion), but that is a very rare occasion I assure you. Generally, all Dillon needs are his friends and his job.

history evaluated.

Louis Laraeu had always struggled with drugs, ever since he was a teenager. No one knew of his bad habits except for his family who didn't care enough to do anything about it. So when he met Luciana on a family vacation to France at nineteen years old, she had no idea who the real Louis was. He wasn't that charming, happy guy he made himself out to be. He was an addict and in the end, the drugs would always come first in his life. But, the two ended up getting married after three years of talking and short visits to see each other in their home countries. Louis ended up moving in with Luciana in Roussillon, still oblivious to Louis' addiction. After two years of marriage Luciana bore their first and only son: Dillon Courtland Laraeu. For the most part, Dillon was a pretty normal kid. His family wasn't wealthy, but things were good. His mom had a low key job as a receptionist in a local doctor's office, and his father brought home most of the money managing a factory just outside their small town.

When he was three, he came home from school with his mother to find Louis tripped out on acid. A confused Dillon and heartbroken Luciana stayed with a close family friend that night. The next day Luciana confronted Louis about the drugs. Louis admitted to his addictions and admitted that he'd been doing drugs since a very young age, despite the fact that he had needed and wanted help. He agreed to go to rehab back in his hometown of Seattle, Washington. That fateful day in the airport when he hugged his father and received a kiss on his forehead goodbye, Dillon hadn't known it would be the last time he'd see his dad. By the time he could ride a bike, Dillon was working odd jobs here and there around the town to help support himself and his mother. But there still wasn't enough money coming in to put food on the table every night. Dillon resorted to stealing food from the local markets and selling anything he could to bring in some sort of money. When Dillon was twelve his mother decided that this wasn't the life she wanted for her son.

Despite Dillon's assurance that he was okay with the way they lived, Luciana had no choice but to send him away with one of his relatives on his father's side. They managed to get a hold of Dillon's grandmother who resided in New York City. It was there that Dillon learned English and attended school. His grandmother was very old and well, in his first few months Dillon didn't have many friends so spending the day at home with her wasn't the most exciting thing to do. She was the one who got him his first set of drawing utensils. Dillon thought it was childish at first, drawing the day away on some sketch pad. But he was a natural at it, and soon his sketchbooks would fill up within a week. Her gesture had inspired Dillon to pursue all sorts of art forms. Dillon threw himself into every art class he could, drawing, sculpture, photography, you name it and he did it. He even picked up the guitar for a little while. What eventually grew to peak his curiosity was video cameras. His grandmother had this strange habit of recording everything of importance that he did, every art gallery he attended, every talent show he was in, even random things he did around the house. One day Dillon tried it out for himself. He would walk around with the video camera up to his face, recording anything and everything around him.

Filming became a fascination of his and he continued to do it throughout his teenage years. He even began to dabble in modeling as a branch off of his photography skills. Anything that would help out his grandmother financially, Dillon tried it. Dillon would create short videos of himself and his friends, editing them and adding things to make them look professional. It became a specialty of his. It was something he loved and it kept him from falling into the bad habits that his father had fallen into. And for a while, it became something that he considered doing as a career. Dillon began thinking of what it would be like to film an actual movie and work alongside famous actors and actresses. It was this thought that led him to send in some of his sample work to a prestigious film school. He managed to obtain a partial scholarship to the school, his grandmother paying for the rest and continued to work hard at his blossoming filming career. It didn’t take long after graduation for Dillon to land a few small cinematography jobs here and there. Currently, Dillon still resides in New York. He’s made enough money to move out of his grandmother’s home and into his own lofty apartment. It’s not much, but he’s satisfied and is able to keep up with the bills with his modeling and cinematography jobs. All that matters is that he’s living his dream of becoming a well known cinematographer.
