PERSONALITY

Boggart: Diego's boggart would turn into an exam paper. He seriously felt terrified at school every time there was a test, knowing he would struggle to pass it, and that fear still stands in adulthood, so he avoids all situations that might throw him into that scenario again.
Mirror of Erised: A partner standing by his side. Someone who doesn't think he's an idiot, someone he can have a family with, and they value him for who he is and not just his looks. There are kids. He's a good dad.
Patronus: Sloth - Diego's happy memory is a little bit daft, really, but one time at school, he and his Potions group had to make an Elixir of Euphoria, and the Professor wanted one of them to test it. Diego's hand was the first to shoot up, and so he took a sip, and honest to Merlin, it lived up to its name. That feeling of total bliss is something he always remembers. It's powerful, man!

Diego is just gorgeous. Not just to look at, he has the most cuddly, loving soul and is such a lovely friend. Sure, he's not the sharpest tool in the box, but what he lacks in intelligence, he makes up for in affection. And looks. Obviously there's the looks. He uses his face and his body to earn a living, and thank Merlin he's pretty because he has always struggled with learning. At school he barely scraped passes in every lesson, and that was only because his Ravenclaw mates helped him out a lot. Like, a loooot. If he didn't have Tristan Dearborn and Jasper Flint sitting with him in the library drilling things into his thick skull, he wouldn't have even passed. Or so he'd wager. Diego tends to have a bit of a self deprecating sense of humour. He knows his weaknesses and tries to make light of them, not scared to admit his shortcomings or failures out loud. He's not always right, but... ya know, he's mostly right. He's funny though, and cute, and he's got a heart of gold, and just hug him already.

This guy loves cuddles. He loves women. He loves men. He loves sex. He loves getting naked. He loves it all and he is not ashamed of his promiscuity. He's only young once, and with that mentality he has thoroughly enjoyed his twenties so far, though heading into his thirties he's thinking he might need to look at settling down. He wants to be a husband one day, though most people he sleeps with are only after him for one thing. His lack of being able to hold an intellectual conversation can put people off, but he still hopes that some day he'll find someone who won't care. Someone who will just see him for the warm, friendly bear that he is. In the meantime, he's happy to play the field and enjoy being beautiful.

Diego likes to keep himself fit. Sports has always been a strong point, though nothing he wanted to pursue, so he just works out a lot instead to keep himself in top shape. That being said, he can throw a punch, but he'd rather not. He can get you in a headlock that you can't get out of, but he'd rather not. Piss him or his mates off, though, and you never know. He's a loyal friend, he'll fight their corner. He's more of a lazy pussycat though in that sense, he'd rather not have the hassle. And please don't bruise his face, it's his livelihood.

Bernardo and Georgiana Cruz were nervous about starting a family in a different country. Gia had come from Spain, Bernardo from Brazil, and though they had been sweethearts through school, they could not come to a decision on where to go when they graduated. Spain or Brazil? It turned out neither. Refusing to break the heart of only one family, they came to the conclusion that they would go somewhere completely new and start a new life in England. It was the only way to do it fairly. They were both twenty five when they had their first son, Ruben. He was cherished, as a firstborn son of a pureblood family should be, though the Cruzes were not so much into that sort of thing, not really. They were happy to have their boy though.

Four years later they were blessed with another son, a spare, so to speak, though he was never treated as such. Little Diego was just as valuable as his brother to them, and he and his head of curls were often swaddled in cuddles and love from both parents, as well as the rest of his family when they came to visit from foreign shores. Diego was always a pleasant boy, never the smartest, he took his sweet time to learn things. He was a late bloomer, but it was fine. He was doing him, and as long as he tried his best, that was all his family ever asked of him. He would get comments everywhere they went that he was such a cutie pie, and he did love the attention, but he would get a bit embarrassed and hide behind his mama's leg.

School was the biggest challenge Diego would face. His brother had gone on ahead to Hogwarts, an unknown adventure to their parents, and one Ruben and Diego would have to learn for themselves. Hufflepuff seemed to be the family house, and Diego was pleased with his Sorting. It didn't matter to him where he ended up. He knew he would never be a Ravenclaw, but it honestly didn't matter. He had a good bunch of friends from lots of houses, and he was well liked despite his academic struggles. He learned what real anxiety felt like when his Professors started doing tests in lessons. Diego was not a natural learner, and struggling along like he did, he wasn't really prepared for random tests, and he certainly wasn't happy about doing his OWL's or NEWT's. He was on the Quidditch team as a Chaser, and he sang in the Frog Choir with a few of his friends, but the lessons, oh, the lessons sucked.

He worried for a long time about what he would do with himself once he left school. Who would hire someone with such shitty grades? He'd end up with shop work, just you watch. He'd be serving ice creams at Fortescue's for the rest of his life. Well, he wasn't far wrong. He did get a job at the ice cream parlour in Diagon Alley, but he wasn't there for long. A talent scout spotted him through the window and announced that he just had to be the next top model for Pur magazine. Diego knew Pur. Everyone knew Pur. This was huge. Oh, Merlin! He signed up without really knowing what he was doing, and though he got screwed over a bit in his first year or so of modelling, he soon got himself a manager and his career took off. His pants also took off and he found himself almost naked for every job, but he's comfortable in his skin. It's cool. He's now pretty well known for his work, and between that, spending loads of time with his friends, and sleeping around, he's got a good thing going. Next on his list of aspirations is to spend his thirties finding someone to settle down and have a family with.
