NAME;; Justus Noel Bellerose[/b][/ul]
NICKNAMES;; ---
AGE;; Seventeen
GROUP;; Rebels
OCCUPATION;; ---
SEXUAL ORIENTATION;; Heterosexual
RELIGION;; Agnostic
APPEARANCE;; Despite his lack of athletics in school, Justus has a quite the athlete's physique. The teen easily reaches six feet, one inch and has a build that his father seems to think was meant for being involved with sports. And with his height, he also easily weighs in around one-hundred fifty-eight pounds being just right there with the average. His skin is a dark, peachy color with a freckle showing up here and there, but there are no densely populated areas of the darker flecks. Justus also has a tendency to have a new bruise or cut on either his face or body so seeing a new shade of purple or red is nothing surprising for somebody like him.
Choosing between green and blue has never been possible for Justus to decide on but most people tend to simply go with calling them bluish-greenish (despite the fact that Justus is convinced they are only one of the previous two colors). His eyes are a smashed oval shape which are often squinted because he is either smiling or trying to read something. Above his eyes are a set of thick, dark brown brows and then in between his two green and/or blue eyes, Justus has a rather large nose. No, it's definitely not small or dainty but it isn't humongous either. He has a big nose and a rather weak looking chin. And his lips, well, they would probably fit right up there with average as well.
Style? Eh, that never really concerned Justus all that much. To be honest, the teen is perfectly content with picking up a pair of jeans and a tee shirt. But since that is his style, detail wouldn’t be harmful. It isn’t often but every now and then Justus will adorn his arms or neck with some kind of bracelet or necklace if he feels content with putting it on that day. He isn’t one to overdo anything and that includes jewelry, make-up, or hair accessories. He’s never really been all that big on the idea of changing things and that goes just as well with his clothing. For as long as almost anyone can remember, Justus has been wearing clothes that are perfectly allowed to be worn and torn. He isn’t allowed by his parents to even come close to buying a pair of jeans with a tear in them since he’ll make them all on his own as it is. And of course most of his shirts are so old that the threads are coming loose and little holes often appear. Seeing Justus dress up is truly a rare sight to behold. Especially when he has something so much more comfortable to wear.
As for things such as distinguishing features, the most distinguishing would have to be something that is just about always covered up. At least from the public’s eye. Justus has one long scar and it’s on the flesh just below his butt on the backside of his right, upper leg. This interesting mark was left after scooting across a pile of wood… which was inhabited by a family of nails.

PERSONALITY;; Like most human beings, Justus Noel Bellerose has no excuses to be excluded from being complicated and strange in his very own special ways. He’s pretty carefree for the most part but if you mess around with something he thinks is right then you’re asking for a quick mood change or sarcastic agreements in hopes to piss you the hell off. Oh and there’s one more catch that comes with him being completely nice to you. You can’t be classified as a moron in his book or else he’ll treat you just the way he thinks you deserve to be treated. If you can’t follow what you believe in or you can’t follow the rules set out for you, then Justus is going to have a bone to pick with you if you’re in his range of hearing, vision, touch, or maybe even smell… As a young man with his own clear set of beliefs, he expects everyone else to respect his and have their own boundaries. He likes things working to the best of their ability and it makes him such a nicer guy when they’re all in order. Even if he fights you about what you believe in because it’s different from his own standards, at least you’ll still get some respect for him for sticking up for yourself in the end.
Justus puts an extreme amount of effort into the things that he does. Sadly, he doesn’t make it very noticeable by saying the things that he’s doing aren’t a big deal. Even if he doesn’t care about something, he can’t really help but do his best just to rub it in your face that he’s capable of pulling together and doing anything he puts his mind to. He’ll do the whole ‘rubbing it in your face’ thing very discreetly though by shrugging it off while letting anyone else marvel at it. You could just call him silently successful. There has always been a bad tendency that Justus has had and that is that he is almost always positive that he is right. He’ll assure that his instincts are telling him and will always stick to a gut feeling (right or wrong). Question him and he’ll probably get a little irritated with you. He likes to be able to take charge and be the one who gets things done and done the way he thinks that they should be done. In his mind, there is absolutely no time for doing just as ‘alright’ job on something. It can always be better.
Okay, so yeah, he’s a bit of a perfectionist. And, yes, that is also a bit of a downfall for him. Justus is never at peace with himself since he can always find a flaw in something that he’s doing. If he’s good at something, then why not make it better? He aims high and expects to land somewhere near greatness. If anyone tells him otherwise, he’ll probably seem very narrow-minded and stubborn, not being open to anyone else’s input on himself or whatever it is that he is trying to better. This can lead to a good deal of stress on his mind and every so often Justus will find himself a some ruts when he likes to keep himself completely isolated from the world; somehow losing is knack of being talkative and assertive, going to quiet and aloof.
A natural nurturer: that would be Justus. If you get close to him he doesn’t get any more open minded but finding a bit more charm to him isn’t all that difficult. He’s devoted and rather gentle with those that he sees as close to him such as his younger sister, love interests, or even good friends. Yeah, if you’re sick he’ll tease and poke fun at you for being ill but he’ll take it right back with his actions rather than his big mouth.
And that would be Justus in a nutshell. He’s hardheaded and stubborn with a spoonful of genuine care for other human beings in the end.
LIKES;; telling people random stories about nothing, baffling people, being up early, snuggles, things going along in order, the weekend, his little sister, proving people that they're wrong (and he's not), love-hate relationship with arguments, feeling accomplished, building things, apple pies, and painting even if he isn't so great at it.
DISLIKES;; people telling him no, constant nagging toward him, anything to do with choking, stupid bug bites, getting things stuck in his teeth, the winter time, that stinging in your eyes you get before crying, getting nervous, rainy days, people who think they know how he feels about things, car rides, anyone messing with his sister, and visiting the doctor's office.
BRIEF HISTORY;; It was a dark, stormy night… no, not really. The day that Mikayla Bellerose decided it was time it was actually a clear, cloudless day in the middle of the summer and just around the evening time her precious Justus Noel Bellerose was brought into the world with little to no complications. Lucas (who was a truck driver and still is), unfortunately, hadn’t gotten the chance to get to the hospital in time (let alone the state) to be a part of his only son’s birth but did end up getting there later that night to congratulate his wife and meet their new family member. He wasn’t so sure if he liked the name Justus so much (the two hadn’t exactly went into much discussion of it before), but the name finally grew on him after a few hours of doting over his own little Justus and after a few days they finally got to go home as an entire family. Well, until the week came to a close and Lucas was back on the road leaving Mikayla to watch over their new born son. But she seemed to have everything under control with him… constantly. If anything, Mikayla was a perfectionist and hard worker so she made sure that everything was constantly taken care of and Justus hardly had the opportunity to ever cry about not having the attention he needed. Save for those late night bursts of tears while his mother was either up writing or actually trying to sleep for once.
Growing up without his father being home too much hardly seemed to affect Justus’s boyish ways. Even five years down the road when his little sister was born and everything in the house was going to pink and cute dresses, Justus was still having high hopes for race cars and dirt. He spent tons of time outside either exploring the yard, building something in the yard, or simply walking around in circles talking to himself and letting his imagination take flight. There was no doubting that he was a bit of a trouble maker and was always pushing the limits with his explorations but he never seemed to do it to make anyone mad. And when you told him something once, Justus was the type to never do it again because he didn’t want to be yelled at and (more importantly) he wanted to show everyone just how grown up that he could be. Because, like most children his age, Justus just couldn’t wait to grow up and be a big kid.
For the most part, Justus’s best friend was always his little sister even though she was a whole five years younger than him and often a bit slower than normal. When little Tiffany Bellerose was three, Justus was informed by his mother during what she called ‘very important mother and son discussion’ that his younger sister had been dubbed with a learning disability. Well, Justus took it as man as he could and just nodded right along promising to not tease her and be a good big brother but, to be completely honest, he hadn’t the slightest idea what his mother had been talking about at the time. Learning disability? Justus hadn’t even noticed since she was the only little sister that he had and was also one of the youngest girls he knew. So for the most part he simply treated her the same way he always did. And that really wasn’t half bad at all considering he was always trying to play with her even if they did have an age difference and one liked Barney while the other liked Transformers. To Justus, he could honestly care less about anything like medical problems.
In school, Justus was always a good student. Not that he always got along with everyone but he did always want to make the teachers proud of him so he tried extra hard on his school work and even tried really, really hard to make sure that he didn’t get into arguments with his classmates. That didn’t always go down so well but he did try. His father was always exceptionally proud of Justus since he got to go around the truck stops and brag about his young son excelling in school and passing all of his work all of the time. Tiffany, however, wasn’t really talked about by their father and he hardly knew that she existed next to Justus. Mikayla immediately took an enormous dislike to that and started to try and make more conversation about Tiffany’s accomplishments to Lucas. Unfortunately, Lucas still shrugged it off and this ended up making not only a rocky relationship between Lucas and Tiffany, but it also started Justus on his unstable relations with his mother. Caring and fussing over him was quickly becoming a thing of the past and her excuse for no time with him was ‘Tiffany needs me more right now.’ Now like any child Justus did get jealous but he wanted to be a big boy and show mommy that he could take care of himself anyways. But he couldn’t help but feel like he was doing something bad now so he made sure to do everything that the teachers and his mom ever told him to do and with age this turned him into a perfectionist. A hard-headed, stubborn perfectionist.
Needless to say, Justus stayed very close to his sister even if their parents had chose sides with the different children. Lucas always stuck up for Justus and Mikayla always stuck up for Tiffany. Soon that was just the way things were and both children could care less. Of course, Tiffany always was a lot more emotional and easily frustrated so that left Justus with a need to take care of her too.
When Justus had turned twelve he and his seven year old sister decided that they needed their own place away from their parents when they bickered and argued in the living room or throughout the house. But where to go in their little backyard? It wasn’t long until Justus figured out just what they needed; a tree house of course! The yard was really only large enough for the one big tree out back so Justus had to make due, he guessed and thus begin his first (and still ongoing) building process. Every so often his dad would poke out and around to help him out but for the most part it was Justus’s project for him and Tiff and he wouldn’t have it any other way. Of course learning the ropes of construction on your own never turned out all that good. At least in Justus’s case. He was always injuring himself throughout the entire process. Not to mention every so often Tiffany seemed to whack him over the head with a board. So having a new cut or bruise was never anything to be surprised about and soon having band aids strewn all over Justus’s face was just a part of everyday life. Yeah, it raised a few brows with some other people and teachers but that was life too, right? And most of them just assumed that Justus was getting himself into arguments that either started with someone pushing his buttons or making fun of his sister.
Now that Justus is old enough to go out without any supervision, he has been spending more time with people his age but still makes a point to spend most of his evenings with his sister. She still expects him to finish her tree house and put on a swing, after all. Oh and a secret escape, maybe a rope ladder, a spot to keep her things- well, she has a lot of plans for Justus still and hasn’t quite grasped the idea of him growing up. Suddenly Justus isn’t so sure if he wants to grow up without her either.
