Welcome to The Duality of Man, an original animanga role-play that features numerous supernatural creatures. Unfortunately, these various species have distanced themselves because of the war that occurred thousands of years ago, plaguing some with eyes that only see their dualism. While others meddle themself with their differences, two groups fight, each attempting to eliminate the other in for their definition of worldly peace. These two groups of the Terror Response Syndicate (TRS) and the Assembly of Phantoms (AP). With individuals fighting merely over their differences, it brings uncertainty to the outcome of this war.
We happily accept all role-players as long as they obey the rules and are capable of meeting our word count of 50. This does include those who are unfamiliar with this style of role-playing. The staff of The Duality of Man are willing to happily help those who are new to the role-playing world so they feel comfortable on site. Feel free to message the staff if you need help, they can be found here or in the site Discord and will gladly answer questions alongside calm concerns. If you have any suggestions we would love to hear them; guests may use the support board as a suggestion area as well. Should you decide to join, may I say welcome to the site and we all hope you enjoy your time here.
Yours Truely,
The Staff
season
Summer 2022
Heat has broken through into a glorious summer. The snow has entirely dried through the spring, leaving to the brilliance of the warmer months. Terror activity has risen as people are brought out of their homes, leaving the TRS in a position of consistent work. Each are attempting to maintain victory in the endless struggle for power.
With April, an activity check has arrived for members to do! Please post on the AC and tag all your accounts, including WIPs and OOC accounts. Failure to post on this AC will result in your accounts being marked inactive or deleted. Please note, due to a late start, the due date for this check has been adjusted for one time and one time only.
Quentin glanced towards Jean, "It is sorta hard to get to know somebody when you don't even bother giving a name in return." He answered him back, to the comment about it being easier to hear if he wasn't walking away he found himself pausing. "Maybe so but I'm not going to stop walking just because it is easier." It seemed to him that Jean wasn't completely bothered by the talking as they walked so he wasn't about to stop for him. Of course that meant as soon as he finished talking he had started walking once more. "That sounds rough." He answered in return, not sure how to answer since he couldn't relate. He hadn't lost his chance to mention to Cato about his feelings yet. "Basic advice." He countered, unsure of if Jean was taking him seriously or not. It wasn't really his problem though so he decided not to worry about it despite Jean claiming that the one he had meant to kiss looked somewhat similar to him. "If you were serious about getting to know me.... I expect no more future kisses in return.
jean continued to smirk."oh, so now you want to get to know me? it seems like you're getting interested in me by the minute."he teased with a laugh. jean simply rolled his eyes as quentin continued to walk and talk. it seemed like he wasn't going to take things easy with jean. that was fine with him. jean would try his best to keep up.
"so you like to play hard to get. interesting."jean teased him. he figured he might continue to persist with wanting to know his name and had come up with a plan to deter him. jean wanted to be nameless for know."i've been thinking. if you really want to know my name i will tell you."he said with a nod."under one condition and i think we both know what that condition is."jean said with a playful smirk.
jean laughed at quentin's comment."that's life. life sucks and then you die...oh, uh yeah sorry about that."he simply responded after.
Quentin rolled his eyes when Jean made his comment. It was clear to him that he wasn't in a rush to give him a name, it would just make it harder to try and get to know him. He kept walking away, not really interested if Jean kept following him or if he ended up leaving, though by conversation it was proven Jean was still following him. "Your lucky I'm talking to you at all." He countered, normally favoring being mute. Strangely enough Jean managed to get him to talk, it was very rare for him to talk to other people if at all, he just didn't care to speak to them. "Is that so?" He asked, not believing him. It seemed like Jean was going to have a catch and it was proven when Jean kept talking. "Nevermind." He answered in return. He wasn't going to agree to any conditions, not trusting people except Cato. He rolled his eyes when Jean commented back to him. "No you aren't...." He countered, not believing him. If he was truly sorry, he wouldn't have joked around in the first place. "You don't have to be though, the one that killed me will be." He answered, trying to avoid hinting that he planned on killing him.
jean was having quite a bit of fun. especially after quentin told him that he was lucky that he was even being spoken too. jean grinned at quentin."does that mean im special. seriously stop, you're going to make me blush."jean said as he placed his hands on his cheeks for a few seconds before dropping his hand from his face and chuckling.
jean laughed once more. wondering how long he would withhold his name from quentin. this was all highly amusing."what a shame. what was that you were saying that you didn't back down from a challenge or was i just hearing things."jean said teasingly."im joking. i will respect your choice, even if it's a bad one."jean said with a wink.
jean simply shrugged."no one should have the right to take another life. i really am sorry."he told him truthfully. quentin seemed determined as ever to find his killer. jean wished to help. though he already knew quentin would start questioning his motives. jean could be helpful sometimes.
Quentin rolled his eyes when Jean seemed to tease him. As he kept walking Jean had started taunting him. "I don't accept random conditions." He countered, being serious despite Jean teasing him. "It isn't a bad choice.... it is a safe choice, there is a difference." He answered him in return. He shrugged his shoulders when Jean gave him sympathy again. "Yeah." He answered somewhat in a mumble. But according to him, he was killing me because I had murdered people too. So frankly I'm not much better than him. But that doesn't change the fact that he killed me and I'm upset about that. He thought to himself as he kept walking, "I normally don't chat because I don't feel like it." He answered, returning to the question Jean had asked him earlier. "It was just too difficult to remain mute with having you around, I'm still debating on if that is a good or bad thing."
jean put his hands up again."alright, i accept defeat. you're just too good for me. safe isn't a bad choice i guess, just a boring one."he said with a wink. he couldn't help, but wonder what would of happened to him, had he not left the place he lived. would he had of suffered the same fate as quentin? he was curious and really hadn't asked what quentin was. he had been alive at one point.
jean smiled softly."so what you're saying is that i am special, or could it be that you secretly like my attention?"of course he was joking, but he was curious to know why quentin was actually talking to him. maybe there were some truth to jeans words. he wasn't completely egotistical, but that thought wouldn't leave him. why was quentin talking to him if he preferred to be mute."don't worry, i won't tell anyone."
Quentin rolled his eyes when Jean mentioned safe being a boring one. "There isn't anything wrong with it being boring but safe is safe.... and I have my reasons." He countered, not interested in saying the reason why he had a hard time trusting other people. Prior to his death he had been much more open to friendships but after losing his memory and dying, he couldn't bring himself to trust anybody else. He wasn't willing to take the chance or dying a second time when he wanted to live. He rolled his eyes when Jean spoke up again. "More like you want my attention." He countered, walking away. "You seem like the type of guy to just assume the answers until proven wrong and even then you still will likely assume. I can't live knowing that you assumed crap about me when I could have bothered correcting you in the first place. Though if you need to know, I just don't care to socialize with other people, what is the point if I don't care to get to know them? Talking is useless unless you plan on trying to socialize." He added, not caring if Jean planned on telling or not.
jean simply grinned while quentin counter, saying that there was noting wrong with being safe."fine, fine. like i said i won't kiss you."jean told him with a nod.
"it took you this long to notice. man you really are slow."jean said with a teasing smile."wait, did you just say i assume, but aren't you assuming things right now?"jean said with a smirk."so hurtful."
"how about we leave that till the next time we meet."he told quentin as he stopped walking behind him."that can be my homework. i'll give you an answer and maybe my name next time i see you."
