Username: Micki.
Name: Declan
Gender: male
Explanation:
Declan is interested in astrology and planets, but also uninterested in them at the same time. He's a very curious soul that loves to learn new things and new discoveries about the universe are being made all the time. While he loves learning new things, it also bothers him that he'll never know everything to know about the universe. His family seems to be really interested in space, so of course he has some of an interested in it and likes to ask Mama questions about it to feel close to her. Deck tends to go through phases with his interest, though, and he'll go months at a time without really caring about the stars or planets. After a while, he always comes back to the topic, even if just for a few days.
☆ in his words ☆
"Astrology? What's that? Oh, you mean space!! Well, Mama really likes it and she knows a whole bunch about it!! And I think Mum really likes it, too, and Callisto! I guess my whole family likes it a lot. I mean, I'm not super in love with it, but... Well, I guess it's really neat-o to learn about it, but it's not my most favoritest thing in the world... Sometimes I like it more than other times, really."
Personality:
He's an exceedingly skittish kit and doesn't do well around strangers at all. Declan isnervous and anxious most of the time, with a tendency to jump or run and hide because of loud noises or sudden movements. He prefers calm, quiet environments where he can just rela. However, Deck gets nervous and fidgety when he's left on his own too long, even if it's quiet. After a while the silence makes him nervous if he's on his own, as he feels like there is such thing as too quiet.
Although he's not the bravest of kids, Deck likes to do a bit of adventuring if one of his parents or sister will go with him. It helps to satisfy his curiosity, as well as his intense love of the outdoors and nature. It's also rare to find him sitting still, as he's very restless and fidgety, so adventuring helps with his energy. One of Declan's favorite things in the world is reading a book out in the middle of a field of daisies or under a large oak tree. He likes to read just about everywhere else, too, and just likes to learn things in general. Deck is especially interested in learning things about nature, rocks in particular, and likes to go to the library to find new books to read. He's a bright, curious boy with a penchant for learning and a knack for growing plants. He's always got a positive attitude, despite being so easily afraid, and he's a mostly happy child.
As his restless nature might suggest, Declan is full of energy. As a kid with ADHD, he finds in nearly impossible to stay still and it's hard to find an outlet for his energy. Even more impossible, though, is getting Deck to focus on something. He can't seem to do anything for longer than ten or twenty minutes, no matter what it is. If he's reading books, he'll have three or four of them out in a row and switch between reading all of them. It also makes Declan an incredibly indecisive person, especially coupled with the fact that he's not sure of himself.

Family:
☆ Aria ⋆ mother ☆
Declan likes to be around Aria because she's so calm and never raises her voice. It really eases his nerves and makes him feel comfortable and safe to be around her. He almost always seeks her out whenever he's been startled or scared. Deck also admires her vast, limitless knowledge of the universe. She seems so wise and powerful, almost like an ancient god. Her thought process is a bit of a mystery to Declan, though, and can seem quite strange to him.
☆ Skye ⋆ mother ☆
Deck also likes to be around Skye, or course, but for different reasons. Skye is a bit more hectic than Aria, but there's a sweet and amusing type of tone to it, at least to Declan. He thinks that his mum is absolutely wonderful, and admires her more artsy sort of way of looking at the world. He also feels like she's capable of anything, likely due in part to her boundless energy, and it makes him feel like maybe he'll be capable of anything one day in spite of his skittish nature. Whenever he goes out exploring, he tends to like to do so with Skye more than anyone else.
☆ Callisto ⋆ sister ☆
Callisto is calm, which has a similar easing impact on Deck's nerves. However, he has a hate - love opinion of his sister's independence. On one hand Declan desperately hopes that one day he'll be as independent and fearless as his sister, but on the other he wishes he could spend more time with her. Not that they don't spend time together, of course, but Deck wishes that they would spend even more time together. He would really like to go romping around in a daisy field with her.
☆ in his words ☆
"My family? Well, they-they're just the best.. hmm, the best? Bestest? Bestest! They are the bestest family anyone could ever have. And that makes me the luckiest kid ever!! I love them all more than the whole wide world and I'm never gonna stop loving them, not ever.
Mum talks a bit funny, but I really like how nice and full of life she always is. Oh, and she always keeps my room from being dirty and I love that!! Mama is great, too. I love how calm she is, and she always knows just what to say to me when I'm scared. After I have a nightmare my parents always give me a big glass of chocolate milk, and Mama always tells me it'll be okay in a soft voice. I love Mama's voice. It always makes me so happy to hear her talk!! My sister can be a lot of fun. I really love being around her, but she doesn't seem to like being around anyone. She's very calm like Mama, and I hope one day I can be all by myself like she can. I do wish that we would do more things together..."
