Biography
Dion Valley (legal name Justin Gibbons) is a 17 year old caucasian panromantic, asexual non-binary with [self-diagnosed] DID (Dissociative identity disorder) living in Ontario, Canada. Dion was born on December 2nd, 2004 and also has an older brother, who goes by the online handle “Pearange Productions”. Dion comes from the same city as Cohen and his friends, they all attend the same high school currently. Dion is also former friends with Cohen, whom they used to be close friends and even co-workers with. Although a falling out did occur in early 2020. This also happens to be what they are most known for in the Tiny Tots community, the falling of the CCU. Most see it as a blessing in disguise, though some still refuse to forgive and forget.

Early Years
Before working hand-and-hand with Cohen, Dion did know him ever since elementary school, along with Grooves. Not much is known between the timespan of kindergarten and seventh grade however, all we’ve ever heard is that fifth grade was around the time that Dion began to start using profanity on a regular basis in an act to look intimidating. We also know that in sixth grade Cohen had accidentally kicked a tin can into Dion's scrotum. We also are aware of Dion attempting to hold Cohen in a chokehold before, this was a result of them getting mad at a joke Cohen had directed at them, this was in the seventh grade. Although we are also aware that Dion used to be a huge crybaby, and would freak out if they didn't get their way or was being teased, whether or not that remains true is not fully known. That being said, most of their childish behaviours that they had when they were younger have never left them, if anything they’ve gotten even worse than they ever were beforehand. Dion themself has also stated in the past that they grew up physically abused and traumatized, meanwhile they show absolutely no symptoms of such attacks, nor do they show any signs of a borderline personality disorder, traumatic childhood, suicidal attempts, etc, If anything, they grew up in an extremely safe and sheltered home, a home which is also worth quite a fair amount of money. They could have had a lot of childhood trauma, but the way it was worded at the time they revealed it was (most likely) stretching the truth.

High School Years
In the ninth grade, Dion was basically forgotten about and pushed to the side by most people in Cohen’s Fan Lounge at the time, even making themself more of a fool; nearly failing their freshmen year English class because he almost never did the work. Although in the tenth grade they started to gain more attention, specifically due to them and Cohen seeming to get closer as friends once more after a year or two of barely talking, Cohen even let Dion begin to work with him on his own personal project. Dion later took pride in their sudden rise in followers, but that came more criticism directed at Dion than before as well. Dion did not take this criticism well, especially when Cohen himself attempted to have a talk with them about their writing. Dion later would take all of these things into account and put a plan into action that would completely ruin all of their already dwindling reputation.

Controversy
Dion is known to have a risky past, all events being verbal however; including such offenses as: racism, sexism, homophobia, islamophobia, antisemitism and substance abuse. It should be noted these past incidents are not absolutely reflective of who Dion is as a person in modern day, with themselves often regarding these as awful; no longer agreeing with anything that was once said, whether a joke or not. Although to pretend these things never happened would be altering history."NIG- ~Dion Valley"

Moderating the Discord
After becoming a moderator on Cohen's original Discord server, Cohen's Fan Lounge, Dion would often abuse their permissions as a staff member, including: muting, kicking, banning, warning, removing roles from people, etc. In most cases, there was absolutely no reason provided. Although in some instances, these actions may or may not have been warranted, the point still stands that they often did this to innocent members as a "joke" for their own amusement. This is also one of the main reasons why they were later demoted by The Lols."I don't see an issue there. Why is being a lol so important to you? ~Dion, in response to Grooves being mad he was removed from the Lol role."

The CCU
After gaining the trust of Cohen once more, Dion was allowed to work on the CCU as a main producer alongside Cohen. While this may have been seen as a good idea in the short term, but in the long term it proved to do far more harm than good for the CCU. Things seemed normal at first, with Dion helping with the second canonical season, however once the Spin-Off was nearing its initial mid-September release, it was suddenly delayed to an early October release. This at first puzzled many fans who had been waiting in anticipation to see what the spin-off was about, the reason it was delayed was largely due to Dion (and later other discord staff) joining the production, only to later abandon it.

The writing styles between Cohen and Dion were vastly different, Cohen was moreso aiming for a comedic and lighthearted approach with morals and fun (while being serious when it was needed),"So, back when the spin-off began production in July of 2019, I had one goal in mind to be achieved with the spin-off, make people happy. Originally, the spin-off was completely different from the one we have today, which by the way, I hate the spin-off. So, what happened? Well, sometime during production, the independent project became a group project, and something from that changed everything. The spin-off went from a planned light-hearted comedy show, to another bland family guy clone. ~Cohen"Dion was moreso going for a mature and darker approach with their cast of characters and episode plotlines."I don’t care if people view me as boring, I don’t care at all. If I’m getting my emotions out in a way that prevents me from harming myself, harming others, or anything of the sort, that’s what I’ll do. ~Dion"This lack in polish between the two of them was what instantly killed the spin-off, it is largely blamed on Dion however. Although it must be stated that Cohen is at fault too for allowing Dion to work on the CCU for as long as they did; Cohen himself has stated this multiple times, admitting he is also at fault and takes full responsibility."WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK IS THIS SHIT?! A GODDAMN JOKE?! I SURE AS HELL AINT FUCKING LAUGHING! MATTER OF FACT I CANT EVEN SEE A REASON TO SMILE AT THIS POINT THE SPINOFF WAS SOMETHING I COULD WORK ON TO GIVE ME SHIT TO DO BUT NOOOO COHEN HAD TO MAKE IT ABOUT THE FUCKING KIDS THE SINGLE MOST ANNOYING THING IN THE ENTIRE FUCKING CCU THIS SHIT PISSES ME OFF SO GODDAMN MUCH ~Dion, in response to the reveal of Tiny Tots."

Making a Group Chat
Leading up to the falling out between Dion and Cohen, Dion had left the Discord server along with another member, Huka (although they later returned). Dion later made a discord group chat with the sole purpose of talking about Cohen behind his back, members of the server quickly caught onto this however; a decent amount of members, such as SK and Nick, claimed they had "left the server and were done with Cohen", in an attempt to be invited into the Group Chat. Following a successful invasion, almost all of the DMs in the group chat were publicly leaked in the Discord server, letting everyone know exactly what was being said, some of which is pretty disturbing, but most of which have aged extremely poorly. "Bella is literally a generic worm! ~Dion"Though that is not the worst offender as Bella is a fictional character, Cohen is a real person with feelings and emotions. Dion had made multiple threats towards Cohen in this group chat as well, most of which revolving him being held into a chokehold."I'm going to slam his eggshell looking head into a desk, fuck punching him! ~Dion"Dion also had went on to talk about how they believe Cohen is a bad writer, and will never improve without the help of Dion. This, and also comparing his comedic skills to the value of an average Instagram comedian (which is not very high). Many fans quickly tore apart the hypocrisy in these claims, seeing as Dion's comedy style in his writing had been nothing but extremely offensive stereotypes and in some cases actual discrimination; notably against people of color and Jewish people."Cohen said he was the better writer out of the 2 of us several times, and I'm just there like; 'bro you don't know how to write a character at all'. But Cohen writes like a 5 year old on speed. His jokes are incredibly unfunny and feel... bland. Like an Instagram comedian. ~Dion"

You're Fired!
Even after all of this however, Cohen decided to give Dion one last chance to redeem themself, however this time it would actually prove to be their last chance at this redemption. In March of 2020, Cohen had finally had enough of Dion and their lies, so he handed them the long overdue pink slip, firing them from working on the CCU permanently. Upon being fired from the CCU, Dion was furious at Cohen and felt that they had done their work all for nothing. In a fit of rage, Dion had this to say amongst hearing the news of being laid off permanently."Thanks for nothing, jackass. Fuck the CCU, fuck you, and fuck everything you stand for. You need a serious reality check, you're so lost in fiction that you haven't escaped your own little world, and you never will. Grooves was right. ~Dion" Many fans found this part of the scenaerio to be heavily ironic, as Dion themself refused to comply with Cohen's wishes and ideas for his own project since the very beginning of their career with the CCU, therefore they themselves are a hypocrite;"If you hate me for being more catered to the darker tones of life then oh fuckin’ well! I’m not into slapstick children show comedy with morals and shit, that’s no fun! ~Dion"Additionally, Grooves was mentioned in the spiteful farewell message from Dion, this is a reference to an old message Grooves had told to Cohen in regards to the CCU, and moreso his dwindling mental health that came from working on it heavily. In October 2019, Grooves had told Cohen "You need a serious reality check.", this was intended to be a helpful message, however many people took this as demeaning. This was brought up by Dion as a means to try and anger Cohen into responding, as well as to have Grooves side with Dion from the start. Neither of these happened, Grooves as neutral throughout the whole thing. Ironically, Grooves clarified what he meant by that message just days before Dion used it against Cohen."Back when Cohen had his breakdown in the cafeteria, I had told him I wanted to talk. He did not mention that he had nothing against us, me in particularly... I know he didn’t have anything against me, but he he didn’t mention it. I was not trying to “Harass” cohen, even if that’s how he took it. Had I known what he was going through, I would have been a little more delicate.. rather than being straight up and not showing any emotion towards it. Anyways... That's it, so, it seemed like Cohen and I were drifting apart in our friendship; and at the time, the main reason (that I had seen) was the CCU. I did not know, it was because of his autism.. that he was obsessing over the ccu; which is why I told him he needed a “reality check”, because I didn’t want to lose our 9+ years of friendship over an online dispute. ~Grooves, clarifing what he meant by his controversial statement."After this, Dion was completely banned from Cohen's Fan Lounge permanently, and has since been blocked by most members. They were no longer friends with Cohen and many of the lols, some going as far as to purposely avoid getting in contact of them in any way. Cohen himself has stated multiple times that he does not wish for anyone to go out and attack them for what they had done.

Recent
Following the whole CCU drama surrounding Dion was six months of mostly silence on their part, aside from a few instances of SK messaging them, and Dion falling directly into SK's bait.

2020 FCA Results
Dion was nominated for the Worst Member of the Year category in addition to the Most Missed Member, in a shocking twist to some; Dion actually placed second in the Most Missed Member category, and didn't even come close to winning the Worst Member of the Year category. Some pin this to being the fact the 2020 FCA was delayed until March 2021, whereas it would regularly be in December of the respective year, and Tobie-Rae had established the worst reputation in server history at that point.

Apology
Dion joined the Tiny Tots Discord as 'Ash' around the beginning of 2021, they attempted to apologize in the #serious channel and hoped Cohen would at least acknolwedge this. Instead however, Cohen completely ignored their apology and banned them a few days later, while also flooding the message with an admittedly rather humorous chain of "chesecak". Cohen did later acknowledge the apology, and while he didn't agree with some of the things said, he did in the end accept the apology and again reminded people to not harass Dion for what they did. Dion still remains banned to this day from all Discord servers despite this.

SighingFires Twitter
Around September of 2021, it was discovered Dion had a Twitter account named "SighingFires", on this account they posted pubicly their kinks in a form of NSFW roleplaying, and followed many NSFW accounts, usually even posting and viewing tweets during school hours. Some of the accounts they followed have posted photos of underaged characters lewd, whether or not Dion intended for this to be on their feed is uncertain. Dion also has re-done some of their characters from the CCU under this account, most notably Luke Lukas and "Gecky". People memed the account to death, and confirmed that it's just another sad way to postpone their "Incorporeal" project. Following the discovery of the SighingFires Twitter account Following these events, on October 5th, 2021, Daria created a new channel in her Discord server for having an easy place to find out what happened during the CCU drama of past and what was then happening with Dion's twitter account.

On October 6th, 2021, the very next day after Daria created a dedicated channel for discussing Dion, they had discovered the Discord server through an IRL friend, Joseph337. Despite seeing a dedicated drama channel to themself, Dion decided to try and be reasonable, politely asking members for questions about what truthfully happened in order to try and see their side of things. Dion failed to recieve any messages, so thirty minutes later they deleted everything they had typed (what they exactly said is unknown), and wrote "'I'll leave you all be. Don't need to cause more problems.' ~Dion"Following this message, they left Daria's discord, deactivated their Twitter account temporarily and pretended to delete their Discord account. After about four hours without a reply, dbrow was the first person to see a message sent from what was at the time "Deleted User", dbrow had this to say;"'Who tf asked you' ~dbrow"Almost immediately after dbrow sent his message the chat began erupting with members flocking in to the surprise of Dion joining the Discord at some point and seeing their own dedicated drama channel. However despite that, nobody was really panicked, this was just seen as another victory for Daria, this time not even doing a single thing directly to someone and they did exactly what they should have.

Following the brief Twitter drama however, Dion still remained active on the app, but not to the same extent they were previously; eventually Dion ended up deleting the SighingFires Twitter account. Dion and Milk have seemingly grown a bit of a friendship back despite a long history of distate towards eachother. Dion's future isn't certain right now, but if they keep slowly building up from where they are now, maybe eventually they can be accepted again into the community. Cohen recently commented on Dion once more by reminding everyone again to not harass them and also if they are going to discuss them, take a lot of the things they did in the past with a grain of salt.
