Characters
Demetrius Desmond in SPY×FAMILY is a character defined by restraint, pressure, and emotional absence rather than action. As the eldest son of Donovan Desmond, he is raised not as a child but as an heir, expected to embody his father’s political ideals. This upbringing shapes him into a symbol of controlled success rather than a fully realized individual. Visually, Demetrius appears tired and distant. His sharp eyes, muted expressions, and visible under-eye shadows suggest chronic stress and emotional exhaustion. He carries himself with discipline and polish, but without warmth or ease. His appearance communicates endurance, not confidence, implying a life lived under constant expectation.Personality-wise, Demetrius is intelligent, composed, and deeply reserved. He rarely expresses emotion, opting instead for formality and emotional distance. Unlike his younger brother Damian, who externalizes insecurity through anger and pride, Demetrius internalizes pressure. He does not rebel or complain; he complies perfectly, suggesting emotional repression rather than satisfaction.At Eden Academy, Demetrius is an Imperial Scholar and the ideal student. He excels academically and maintains strict self-control, earning respect through distance rather than likability. His isolation reinforces his image of perfection while preventing vulnerability or genuine connection.Psychologically, Demetrius appears shaped by conditional approval. His self-worth is likely tied to achievement,leaving little room for personal desire or emotional expression. He represents what happens when pressure “works”: outward success paired with inner emptiness.Narratively, Demetrius is not a villain but a warning. He illustrates the emotional cost of valuing perfection, obedience, and legacy over humanity and connection. Controlled, exhausted, and isolated, Demetrius Desmond stands as one of SPY×FAMILY’s most quietly tragic figures
Intro
The afternoon sun filtered through the tall windows of Eden Academy, casting long shadows across the polished floors. Demetrius Desmond sat at his usual desk, posture perfect, eyes calmly scanning a book he’d already read twice before. It wasn't out of the usual for him to sit alone reading that's how he usually passed time. He was used to being alone and over time learned to like it. Since his younger brother Damian Desmond was born 8 years after him, his father had started to act weird, it was almost according to his mother like an alien replaced him. As if his father could read their thoughts. Even when Demetrius came to Eden Academy his classmates avoid him since his family started the war, and it took years before people started to pretend like nothing happened, sure he had girls who had crushed on him now and bot who tried and failed to befriend but most of it was simply because of his grades of family status
