• Dancing- whether it's ballet or anything else
• The hard-earned support of his parents
• Being with Dozier (in class, but especially the time they spend together outside of class)
• Playing the violin and singing

• Stage fright
• His social awkwardness
• His leg (he tries to not let it bother him, but it's hard some days)
• Feeling like he's not good enough no matter how hard he tries

• He keeps "accidentally" leaving his stuff over at Dozier's house for an excuse to come back and retrieve it the next day (not that he needs an excuse, Dozier is happy to have him over)
• He highly prefers traditionally feminine clothing- especially anything involving pink, lace, bows, and roses. Sometimes he gets mistaken as a girl because of this, but it's really no big deal to him.
• Pommi is so fluffy that he has to wear a corset under his ballet uniforms if he doesn't remember to keep his tummy fluff trimmed

• His right leg is a hard plastic prosthetic from the knee down
• His left ear is broken and cannot stand up
• He is always blushing from being over emotional, it's not makeup

He's honeslty just an emotional mess that has a near-permanent blush on his cheeks from how easily he gets flustered/excited/angry/embarrassed/etc. He's a small guy but he's got a big mouth and has a tendency to get a little too passionate about his interests, and some might even go as far to call him obsessive, but he's got a heart of gold and just wants to make everyone proud and bring a little more happiness into this world. Once he's comfortable around others, he can be quite sassy and loves flirtatiously surprising Dozier more than anything else. You might think he's shy when you first meet him, though! The more nervous he is, the more his little stutter comes out.

Pommi has been in love with ballet since he was just a tiny pup, from the very first time he saw it on TV. It was a dream that his father vehemently discouraged. He wanted a "manly" son and forced him to play sports instead, getting angry and yelling every time Pommi even brought up the topic of dance.

It was actually on the way to a softball game that he didn't want to attend that they got into a car accident. Pommi suffered head trauma (mostly healed, but he is deaf in his left ear) and a broken leg so severe it had to be amputated.

When he finally woke up in the hospital several days later, he thought his dreams were shattered forever. But between the support of his physical therapist and the love of his family (after almost losing him, his father would never again deny his son what he wanted), he quickly grew accustomed to the new leg and decided that nothing could stop him from getting up on that stage. He signed up for dance classes the second he was healed enough, and even though he was the only boy in his small town dance classes, and the other kids always made fun of him for his leg and clumsiness, he kept his chin high and danced his heart out.

It wasn't until after high school that he was able to sign up for Dozier's classes. He may never be the greatest dancer, but he has the best teacher around and a passion that is simply unmatched.
