-- PERSONALITY !

-- ARROGANT: There is no one better than Micah Diaz. There are no ifs ands or butts about it. Ask him yourself. No one measures up to him. He doesn’t care who you are or where you came from. He doesn’t care who your family is or how much money lines your pockets. He’s the best. Everything he does is perfect. And if there is something he isn’t good at? Well, then whatever that thing might be is just stupid. And you’re two times more stupid for being good at it. Of course, Micah’s opinion is biased. Considering that he’s comparing everyone to himself with the notion that he does no wrong, well, that says enough doesn’t it? Micah’s one of those kids who takes and takes and takes. Not because he needs it or feels like he deserves it. Just because he wants. A lot of people mistake Micah’s arrogance as confidence. In fact, it’s gotten him quite far. But nobody ever said that Capeside High’s student body was all that intelligent. Most people blamed his false confidence on ‘coming out of his shell’ but in reality a lot of the way Micah acted stemmed from his private family life.

-- CHANGED: Micah wasn’t always such an ass. That’s only been a recent development, beginning around the time he started high school. Prior to that he was actually a quiet boy who kept to himself. Most of the time he spent doodling in a notebook or reading web comics on his phone in class when the teachers weren’t looking. He was respectful and polite. Maybe he didn’t have as many friends as he had now but he always had that cloud of mystery hanging around him. Micah could have had a world of friends he just chose not to. That was, of course, until his parents divorce finalized. And with the most selfish and unrealistic thinking he decided if his parents couldn’t keep it together he was going to lose it too. It was kind of sad knowing behind that asshole was a sweet, quiet boy. But there was no telling if he would ever return. There were glimpses from time to time but never anything solid.

-- PLAYFUL: Despite the fact that he’s kind of a prick, there is also a playful side to Micah. A side that has him cracking jokes and using his quick wit and sarcasm for other people’s entertainment. Of course, it’s not always innocent. Sometimes it’s at the expense of other people but anymore Micah has no filter. He can’t see himself in other people anymore and he can’t care to be nice. But sometimes it is innocent and is done solely to make whoever he is with smile. He likes poking people or quietly making faces over someone’s shoulder during a conversation so the person they’re talking to will laugh inappropriately. He’s a fun guy, really. If he wants to be.

-- LOVES: Silver, hats, smart phones, web comics, Pepsi, horror movies, music, pretty girls, old cars, candy.
-- HATES: Gold, parents, marriage, waiting, alfredo sauce, Coca-Cola, authority figures, head-on commercials, cheap cologne, half assed hugs.

-- HISTORY !

It was a gloomy day, sort of. If rain counted as gloom and the lack of sunshine were any indication of the day to come, anyway. Micah sat on the front porch of his parents house in the padded swing, shielded from the droplets of rain that casually fell from the sky. His feet were curled up to his chest and, if you looked closely, you could see that he was crying. His lips were dry and every few moments he would lick them and then lift a hand to wipe away a string of tears sliding down his cheek. It took all he had to hold it in, to keep from completely breaking down when all he wanted to do was yell and scream and tell everyone how completely stupid they were being.

That was the day Carl and Lydia Diaz announced their divorce to their only son.

Micah could never really seem to pinpoint why it mattered so much to him but if he sat and thought about it he would have to go far back. Back to the third grade when Riley Smith told everyone he was moving because his dad was a cheating whore. Those were the words he used, like his mom had just left them on the table and he had picked them up and borrowed them for the day. Micah had gone home that same night and asked his parents what a divorce was. They assured him, time and time again from that point on, that they would always love each other - that they would always love him. But when Lydia began packing up her things and didn’t even bother to come out to the front porch to say goodbye to her son, Micah knew it was over. He was Riley Smith in the third grade and someone was a cheating whore. But why did he feel like he had been the one who was cheated on?

His childhood had been happy! As far back as he could remember, at least. His mom taught him how to draw - or at least encouraged his ability - and his dad showed him all the best movies. They spent so much time together just being the perfect family. But now it was over. And what felt like a normal childhood was just another thing to put under the magnifying glass and he just couldn’t take it.

So, like all good children eventually do, Micah reacted outwardly. His entire demeanor changed. No longer the sweet boy he had been all those years before, Micah became dramatic and rude and completely holier-than-thou. He lived with his father, though you wouldn’t know it if you were just a casual visitor because if you stepped into the Diaz household you would see nothing but pristine floors and curtains within curtains within curtains. Interior designers had a thing for curtains, he found out. That was, of course, until you reached Micah’s lair where he had been caught with at least a couple of girls since freshman year. As time went on the infractions got worse. What started out as a bad attitude and a loss of respect spiraled into bad grades and even worse decisions. There’s no end in sight for Micah, as his spiral seems to be never ending.
