Personality
Dameon is a very dedicated student, willing to take whatever means it is necessary to help someone out. He especially loves Mrs. Jewls, and does whatever he can to help her, frequently passing out papers and running up and down several flights of stairs just to help her out. Dameon appears to do it out of the kindness of his own heart. Dameon is presumably very helpful, and even aside from Mrs. Jewls, is willing to help many people out, as in "Kathy," he tries to teach Kathy how to play catch, despite her negative personality, and in "Kathy and D.J." he attempts to cheer up D.J. when he's feeling upset.
