Dylan is incredibly impatient. He hates waiting around for anything. He likes to live in the moment so anything that doesnβt happen instantaneously is pretty much a no go for him. When he wants something, he can be a bit of a stubborn kid about it and always wants it immediately. Dylan knows this is a weak point of his and heβs working on being more patient but he still has a long way to go. This also means things like small talk piss him off and he refuses to partake. So either get to the point or leave Dylan alone before you get him in a bad mood.
Dylan is notorious for his bad moods. For people who donβt know him, in a bad mood he just seems like a very grouchy and arrogant person. When heβs pissed off, which is frequently, everyone knows because a dark cloud seems to follow him around turning every interaction with him in a confrontation. Since maturing a little he has gotten better at dealing with his bad moods, but it is still very easy to put him in a bad one.
Dylan likes to live without commitments, he hates feeling boxed in. Whether physically or metaphorically. Dylanβs answer to everything is maybe, which means most likely, he just wants to reserve the right to back out at any moment. He hates the idea of not having control and feeling forced to do anything. Dylan is all about freedom. Freedom of choice, freedom of expression. Anyone gets in the way of him being himself and theyβll find themselves at the bad end of one of his moods.
Despite all his flaws, Dylan is actually an incredibly friendly guy if you catch him at the right time. Without a bad mood hovering about he is nice, friendly and even a little bit funny, all the thing youβd want in a friend. He is also always honest with his friends, probably even more so when it is a harsh truth they need to hear. He is also loyal, he wonβt stand to have anyone talk bad about his friends or take advantage of them. Dylan is not afraid to make enemies, and that counts doubly when it comes to matters involving his friends.
Dylanβs mother was only 19 when she had him to a guy she didnβt even know, and when he was three years old she took off leaving him in the care of her older sister, his Aunt, Mads.
She raised Dylan as her own, though she had a really free spirited approach to being a mother and life in general. She was an artist/hairdresser/musician/whatever got the bills paid, growing up his aunt never had a lot of money and at periods of time struggled to make ends meet. Dylanβs auntβs love for all things artsy cause him to try almost everything, from painting to pottery, the only thing he ever stuck with though was music. He learnt to play all kind of instruments. He eventually became more focused on playing drums. In High school he started a band called Soundless September with like minded people. Dylan never really thought much of it, it was just a hobby that he did for fun, he had never dreamed of actually making it.
At the end of high school though, when his band was signed to record label it was like a dream come true. Next thing he knew he was packing his bags and leaving with his band, his highschool sweetheart, Cash coming along with him. There were a hard years, and if him and his mates werenβt already close they became even closer. They were the siblings he never had growing up. Together through thick and thin. A few hit songs later and Soundless September had made it to the top of the music world. That's when things started to fall apart.
Dylan, who never had any money growing up, was overwhelmed with he options and lifestyle that came with being a rockstar. Drinking, drugs, women. He became corrupted. He'd show up to meetings, rehearsals and even gigs late and drunk/high. He had no respect or care for his bandmates. Him and his girlfriend Cash had always been a dysfunctional couple, they were either all over each other or screaming and throwing things at each. They broke up practically every second day. Until one very drunken night they got married in Las Vegas. They stayed married just long enough for Cash to find herself pregnant with a baby boy.
Then the band broke up and everything came crashing down around Dylan. He continued partying on for another year or so after the break up, but eventually he ran out of friends and fans to party with. Then Cash was going on her honeymoon with her new husband and Dylan was left with a kid and no one around. So he went back home, to his Aunt's place. He sobered up and learned how to be a good father to his kid. Now he's closed that chapter of his life and just starting to get back to who he was before the fame got to his head.
