Lafayette - Anarchistic Theater Student (or something)
Name: Lafayette
Nicknames: Laf [pron. "loff," not "laugh"] (Only used by Dmitri) Age: 16 Occupation: high school student Gender: Non-Binary, uses whatever pronouns. (note: Most people use "they," Dmitri uses "she") Sexual Orientation: Asexual Aromantic, but willing to be in a relationship for the sake of companionship Love Interest(s): None. Sometimes expresses some degree of affection toward Dmitri, their closest friend. Likes: Acting/performing, "adventure" (?), Marina Diamandis/Marina and the Diamonds, judging trashy pop music while still listening to trashy pop music, attention and adoration, being in control Dislikes: School, studying, arbitrarily following rules, "weak-ass music like the shit Christina Perri or Rachel Platten put out" (???? sorry Christina Perri/Rachel Platten fans), self-reflection Strengths: Creative and spontaneous, willing to take huge risks, almost fearless, has a versatile singing voice (?), extremely dedicated to his passions Weaknesses: Extremely poor academically, with less than adequate grades in nearly all of their classes; apathetic, not very good at expressing genuinely warm emotions; though they experiences no discomfort when talking to people, their people skills are actually pretty bad. Personality/relationship with others: Pretentious, bombastic, extremely conceited, and over-the-top in everything they do. Others perceive them as cold and anti-social because of their usual scowling expression. Lafayette is actually quite extroverted and will enter a conversation on their own accord, even if it is socially uncalled for. When they socialize with others they respond to everything in extremities, which can be exhausting for the people around them. Rather than socializing for the sake of making friends, Lafayette seems only to interact with others for their own entertainment. They harbor little empathy for others and likewise has few real friends (which is a problem they're aware of themself). They also have like no tact at all. Oh and they're a big fan of using swear words at any given chance for whatever reason... idk. |
Background:
Lafayette is a high school junior and a passionate actor of Northwest High School's Drama Club. Despite frequently getting into trouble for their controlling behavior, Lafayette has complete confidence in themself and their acting skills; they're not afraid to make it clear to those around them that they think themself better than others. They're also part of choir but that's just like whatever for them. Aside from their participation in drama and chorus, they don't care about academics at all (and as a result, his grades are horrendous.)
Lafayette has complete disrespect for social conventions and does not give a single care about what others think of them. They tends to have a draining effect on the people around them, with Dmitri acting as an exception. People (namely their classmates in drama and chorus) find their chaotic and insensitive personality stressful and difficult to handle--likewise Lafayette tends not to maintain lasting relationships with others.
One of Lafayette's only genuine relationships is with Dmitri, who they've known since they were in 5th grade. The two of them had a falling out in middle school for a number of reasons, but they both rekindled their friendship in late freshman year of high school. Lafayette tends to be willing to show a more subdued and genuine side of themself around Dmitri, but has a tendency to act like the "leader" of the two of them.
Lafayette's birth name is Ritsu, which they use somewhat interchangeably with their chosen name. (They prefers "Lafayette" but isn't uncomfortable when people use "Ritsu".)
