"My mom loved the name Giovanni and since I was the last kid she gave birth to, she just went with a what-the-hell attitude. Dad was salty, which is why my middle name is his name. Only my family gets away with calling me by my middle name or even Nikki. Anyone else might wake up the next day with a black eye and no memory of when I even swung. Most don't even try, though, cuz they settle with calling me Gio and a host of other nicknames. Only those who know me for my music and what I do on a switchboard call me Lux. De Luca is one of the most common Italian American last names we could have and while a few classmates might have stories about their origins and all that, all I can say is that that is my last name and I'm perfectly fine with that. To be honest, the fact that it has a "De" makes me feel just a touch special and shit, but we all know that really isn't the case.
I don't know what's better - being the first of the star signs, the Ram, or being the greatest April Fool's prank my mom ever got. I wasn't due for a good five days, but when I said I was ready, I was fucking ready. Mamma wasn't and to this day, she's still salty over being in the hospital and giving birth when she thought she had at least one more day after she had been admitted. In regards to more delicate matters, I've had only one girlfriend in my life and before anyone says it, no, there was no trauma. I didn't never get over her and she wasn't the one that got away. It's just that once we were done, I knew that I was ready to be free and do as I pleased with whomever I pleased. While some guys' masculinity is so damn fragile that even stepping over the straight and narrow line leaves them puffing their chest and shit, I've become the next leap frog, hopped my ass on over that line, and I must say - the grass is pretty damn green on both sides. I like sex, anyway that I can get it. It's a part of my lifestyle. Party. Drink. Fuck. And bullshit. All in that order. And if that happened to have landed me as an Animal at Buckley, then so be it. No other place I'd rather be. We stay turnt and that's all I really want at this point. That and money. Can never have enough money."

Fashion Sense
Gio is the stereotypical boy. He likes a simple and relaxed style, which is why the majority of the brands in his closet consist of Volcom, True Religion, Polo, American Eagle, Young & Reckless and Obey. There are some things he isn't pressed about and fashion brands are only one of many. As long as Gio has clean threads on his skin with the occasional addition of watches or snapbacks, he's good.
Whole Body Maintenance
While Gio could never call himself much of a health buff or even really as much of an athlete as the jocks at Buckley, the one thing he does to stay fit is swim. If he isn't hosting or at a party somewhere, he's more than likely at the beach surfing, swimming, or doing absolutely any and everything that he can in the water. That is how he stays active - that and the occasional game of street basketball he plays with his friends. He definitely doesn't have a great diet, but his grandfather make sure that he eats his vegetables and it isn't like Gio is high all of the time. He cares about his body, knows that it is by his looks that he gets away with half of the things that he does, and he also doesn't want to wind up losing his attractiveness with age. Being the most buff dude on the block also isn't his prerogative, either.

The one thing that needs to be acknowledged and accepted first, above all things, is that Gio isn't everybody's favorite cup of tea once off of a stage or away from a turn table. While some might find that others find them hard to deal with and want to change some aspect of themselves in order to please those other individuals, Giovanni has discovered this fact, laughs very boisterously in your face about it, and then revels in it. He warns in advance and makes no excuses about it - he can be a lot to handle. While he is not one of those people who believes that life is a complete joke, he also isn't one to find every little thing as serious. He's carefree in that sense. His life is his life and while he won't say that he's grown up with the most golden of spoons in his mouth, he has acknowledged that he grew up with the privilege to not actually give a flying fuck about other people and their expectations. People are going to spend your entire life nitpicking the different parts of you that they either like or don't like, he has already surmised. And the one thing he is not going to do is waste his time trying to conform, fix himself or even try to please anyone. So, if it happens that his rapid-fire, quick-witted and sarcastic self has rubbed you the wrong way, unless Gio genuinely feels as though he might have insulted you or truly hurt your feelings, expect not a single fuck to be given. He's shameless, after all.
While being such a free-thinking and vivacious individual is always a good thing, the reason that not many can truly say they completely hate him but also that they don't completely love him is that Gio never knows when to stop. Or, it would appear that way. Another thing that needs to be taken into account is that while he does have a tendency to lean towards being reckless and daring in that every day is an adventure he should not hesitate to take, Giovanni has a devil-may-care attitude combined with the fact that he is far more calculated than people give him credit for. Classmates and certain staff members tend to forget that this is the smart young man - both book-wise and street-wise - who could have been classified as a nerd, and cursed any forced classifications to hell if he didn't get to pick for himself. He's not stupid. While Gio likes to say that he just does shit on the drop of a dime and doesn't give a care in the world, what it is is that he doesn't always act without thinking. He just likes seeming that way and he's human; of course he has his impulsive moments. It wouldn't be truly Gio without them and trust - he can be incredibly impulsive. They just don't dominate his every-day. Again, he knows people are going to always have something to say, so why not be the one who controls whatever the say, to some extent? So, if he happens to get detention today because his perceptive self read the living daylights out of his professor and in his typically blunt manner called him or her out on it in the middle of class, at least he can say that people saying whatever they plan to say about him is of his own volition, and not their own. In a twisted way, he controls people's perceptions of him and he likes that kind of power. It's fun, heady and he's always looking to push the realms of what is acceptable. Like going to class high and seeing what's going to happen. Not that that's particularly a good thing since well, he has a habit of annoying people. Then again, from Gio's perspective, antagonizing a professor and getting sent to the hallway for it is a lot better than getting caught in the middle of sex, which is one of his favorite pastimes. Plus, in that transcribed scenario, he's only stopping for one of them.
Others might speculate that Giovanni has had a bad home life or blame his tendency to stay away from commitment due to a previous heartbreak. The truth of the matter is that he has always been detached and just a touch enigmatic. Teenagers go through a phase where their parents and the adults around them find them hard to read for awhile, partly due to their emotions just being haywire as they try to discover themselves. This is not a phase - this is a way of life for Gio. He loves his parents deeply, even if it seems that he is accepting their affection without being as open in his emotions as they are. It's just how he is, simple as that. He's just not one of those freely emotion-giving people. He's not afraid or anything of that nature of relationships. He just has a deeper love for sex without strings and relations without commitments. There's no sugarcoating around it and nothing to read into. That's just the way that he is and considering most people hop into his bed knowing exactly what they're getting into, he feels no need to apologize later when they had some underlying expectations. That sounds like a very personal fucking problem that could be solved by the other person while Gio finds the next person to smash. At the end of the day, despite his seeming abhorrence towards commitment and depending on everyone else due to his independent streak, Gio knows a thing or two about loyalty and no one would ever have to worry about him being theirs - whether as a friend or lover. One, they would have to actually convince him or be some kind of a person to make him theirs. Two, they just need to accept that he likes his freedom as well, and his occasional signs of being flirtatious. After all, he's a complete package. You just can't accept one part of him and not like the other. And people can try, but they always leave dissatisfied. And the only one they have to blame for that is themselves.

History
Despite a lot of people (save for those Lifer students Gio has been close to or has known since they all came to Buckley as little tikes) thinking that Gio's childhood had to obviously consist of something to make him the way that he is now, that is actually not the case. The most traumatic part of his childhood was his sister dying and even then, it hurt. It's still a wound that has not officially healed yet considering Antonia's name was the first word he ever uttered, but it wasn't traumatizing as it was life-affirming. As it was revitalizing. There's a host of words to be used for that instance, but the truth of the matter is that his childhood barely serves as an excuse for why he had become an Animal or anything else that others would deems as faults within his character. He was born when his mother was still trying to get her Ph.D and his father had already had his own, so he had come into a life of relative wealth already. He was born into a content family. Two girls already dominated the household and with baby Gio as the final installment into a rather close-knit family, he had provided the balance his older brother, Christian, swore they lacked. Giovanni doesn't really remember too much of his much, much younger years other than what he would call "bomb ass" piggy-back rides with his father when he was home and excuses to bake with his mother, but there's no denying from the photos how much his older siblings, particularly Sienna and Chris, antagonized him. They did what normal older brothers and sisters did; teasing him for staying under their mother, stealing snacks, playing pranks, etc. It wasn't out of disdain or anything as there was no denying the love in photos where Chris has a protective arm around Giovanni or Sienna is smothering a Gio that's trying to run away. But there was no denying that the one he had grown exceptionally close with was Antonia. Which was why her loss really did something for the remainder of that year after his twelfth birthday.
During his earlier years of Buckley, being this hyperactive kid who couldn't focus for too long and would always be reprimanded left him unable to shake the clique of the Troublemakers and luckily, at the time, he had preferred that to being a Misfit. But his excessive energy and inability to calm down prompted Christian to introduce Gio to weed, which helped, to an extent. But pissed off both of their parents, who would later deduce that Giovanni was probably suffering from ADHD and needed medication. But none of that - to this day - meant that anyone should have disregarded Antonia's lingering depression or taken her word for face value. She had had a perpetual sense of solemnity since her fiancee's death that not even the birth of her son had been able to alleviate, which was why Gio had spent so much time with her during the pregnancy. And while he had known that something was off, her death still struck him. Not just because he felt a guilt that everyone was focusing on his antics and his health, and not her own, but because mortality had struck him. At the time, he had never considered the possibility of a life of music as a career, had even considered being like his parents in getting a career in the medical field. But Antonia's death, with the lingering reminder of her supporting his extensive love for music and being able to enjoy himself while entertaining others, had prompted a different Gio to emerge in the face of his high school years. Not different in the sense that friends didn't recognize him, but in the sense that there was a surety about his decision. He wouldn't be just some trouble making kid who put on a show, but someone who enjoyed his life in the way that Antonia could not. And it landed him th role of Animal when he got to high school and Gio has yet to regret that.

Academic Career
Gio is a smart kid, no one can deny that. If he wanted to apply himself better, he'd probably be considered a Nerd due to how well he performs in computer science and mathematics. And yet, Gio simply makes grades that he knows his parents won't complain about such as straight Bs with the inclusion of a few Cs when he's really just not caring or is genuinely struggling because while smart Giovanni may be, he also is not a genius. He could be better; he knows it, his parents know it, and his teachers know it. It just so happens that everyone knows that if he cares about something, he'll put in a greater effort. If he doesn't, at least he can say he won't fail.

He could be better; he knows it, his parents know it, and his teachers know it. It just so happens that everyone knows that if he cares about something, he'll put in a greater effort. If he doesn't, at least he can say he won't fail.
