So while I was scrolling through tumblr reblogging way too much stuff at once, I found these two posts.
Logic me: Stop this, Cutepups. They are not about them..
Me: Shh! Yes they are! They fit his character so well! Ahh!
Logic me: Oh god, why.
(For a short while now, I've been trying to find tumblr posts on monochrome manga/anime blogs that vaguely remind me of my characters in the skits or story. It's one of my cryptic ways of having fun.)
These two posts aren't of any people. They're writing picture posts. But, like, they remind (stupid, foolish) me of him way too much. And, like, it made me scream.
(I'm thinking about Duke. Obviously.)
(Damn it, Duke.- me who says that way too much and should stop..)
... on a completely unrelated note, I keep on laughing whenever I think of my mutuals reading my tag. "Wh-What the hell does that mean, @spiritfallen? Explain."
In what feels like every other fictional work, the word, Duke, is either...:
- a dog name (the name of a character's pet). (But is my Duke a pet? ... The answer is no. Stop this, Cutepups.)
- a title for royalty (dukes and duchesses.. lol that).
- for human characters, the type of boy that is absolutely nothing like my Duke character (uhhh idk).
Yeah uhh ok then.
I don't know anyone named Duke who acts like my Duke. ... what an organic feel. I'm so creative, haha ahh.
Plot twist: The name, Duke, is technically supposed to be an abbreviation. So the D, U, K, and E stand for other words. And so, that's why Fierdan named him Duke, and that's why he just goes by Duke. Duke is the DUKE version of Fierdan, hence the name Duke Fierdan. But do I know what the letters stand for? I still don't know. That one character said the K and E stand for "kill everybody/one" but I don't know if that's actually the truth. The letters are supposed to be words in another language but I don't know foreign languages that well enough, smh. The DUKE cryptic dark complex magic spell? Oh hmm? ... uhh, Latin? What's a language? No idea. I have daydreams of Fierdan speaking (somewhat?) fluently in various languages. Because of course he has to be that talented and smart, smh. Anyway, his voice.. I love it so much. Fire hot man with hot voice? Oh worm? True. XD
Viewers: What the hell did that paragraph say? What was it even about?
Me: Oh yeah, those tumblr posts. That's right!
Viewers: Huh? :/
So for that first post I linked to, it reminds me of Duke's character in general.
Wait.. no. Both of them remind me of Duke's character as a whole. In general. But one is to a more specific time in the story than compared to the story as a whole (?).
I try to find things that remind me of Duke way too much. :/
The post (which is something from "The Flowers of Evil" by Charles Beaudelaire in Funeral Parade of Roses (1969) .. yeah that, maybe I should check it out lol): "I am the wound and the blade, both the torturer and he who is flayed."
I guess it also reminds me of Fierdan since the reason that quote reminds me of Duke in the first place is because it reminds me of the dark story concept of the puppet of melancholy.
My dark story concept of Puppet of Melancholy: much sadness, much angst, much violence, much pain, puppets and puppeteers are both damned and switch places... uhh.. explicit? Damned. Violence. That's what. Ouch.
More specifically, it reminds of Duke in what I nickname the torture arc. >:')
Ok so, Duke isn't an innocent victim. Like, come on, look at him. He's.. not good. Morally good? He isn't that. He's pretty bad, honestly. He might be the main character (where the heck is Twinkle? :/) and protagonist, but that doesn't mean he's a good moral character. So.. yeah lol.
I still love my Duke though, haha.
Here's what happened: Taurel told Risak to torture Duke. Risak was like, "lol no, screw that", and decided to simply execute Duke instead. Then Duke was like, "fvck you, fvck that sh¡t", and he turned into being more brutal violent and inhumane (more than Fierdan). So then Duke (technically? in a way, I guess?) tortures Risak. And eventually, Risak dies. And.. oh damn. So then later, Taurel comes in and is like, "what the fvck is wrong with you, Duke? Death is too easy for you, so I gotta hurt you even more than my original plans because you made me angry", and then the actual torture arc officially begins.
So yeah.. Duke, what a guy. The killed. The killer. The torturer. The tortured.
Flay: to strip off the skin or outer covering of
Well, yeah. Happens to Duke.
Gross. Stop thinking graphic violent things, Cutepups.
Oh and then later, Duke (who became physically and psychologically fvcked up by Taurel) somehow attacks and tortures Taurel. It's.. uh.. violent lol.
Duke- got wounded. Becomes a blade (just like Fierdan, haha). Uses Taurel's sharp, blade-like objects to attack Taurel.
Yeah haha. Ok then.
The other post: "Why does tragedy exist? Because you are full of rage. Why are you full of rage? Because you are full of grief."- Anne Carson from Grief Lessons: Four Plays by Euripides.
Well, that one reminds me of my thing I call- Duke and the Five Stages of Grief (referring to Ardere).
Grief and rage. And Duke has a lot of rage. Because of it. Ardere's death.
Ardere was shot and killed by Taurel.
Yeah, haha, what a fun and pleasant story! Haha!
So Duke got angry with Risak because he tried to execute him and worked for Taurel who killed Ardere.
And then Duke got very angry with Taurel and decided to attack and go all brutal violent demon man on Taurel because he killed Ardere. (what a dick move :/).
Duke and Ardere.. what a brotp. Hhhnfgh.
Duke and that grief and rage. Man.. ;;.
And yeah, the full extent of Duke's rage metaphorically and literally kills other characters. And the death of characters is indeed a tragedy. Death is tragic.
Duke gets so violent with Taurel because he never really got over Ardere's death and that Taurel killed him.
Rage, a side-effect of grief.
Sudden grief from an unexpected and undeserved death.
Oh and Duke basically promised Ardere that he wouldn't let Ardere die because of the mess he (Duke) is in. But then, Ardere.. he just, he dies.
Ouch. Story pain. Oh heck.
I can't check to see if I can word anything in this post any better. I'm in a rush. Bye.
