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.
[attr="class","monbody"]It was bad manners to rest his arms on his bar and for him to lean forward to properly communicate with the familiar face before him but Emon knew he could get away with it since the bar was at it's usual activity during this time of night. Not many came around besides the usual customers so he felt it was okay for him to go about doing so. The oni was also able to pour himself a drink-- an old fashioned was his favorite to have when chatting up a friendly face. Emon took a swig of his drink before he set the glass back down on the napkin. "You know I was waiting for when you'd next show your face." He says with a slight hum, head tilting to examine the purple haired male closer. The two had been at it for a while. It wasn't often he met someone who had the same level of tolerance as he did so it was pleasantly nice to be able to have this discussion while enjoying the fine alcoholic beverages.
"Ah, allow me to refill that." His hand motions to Minato's empty glass as he takes hold of it. He set the glass down to refill him with yet another whiskey sour. He adds the ingredients to the shaker as he flashes Minato a charming smile. "Has work been gruelling? I know you work long shifts pretty often." The chameleon was one of his frequent customers but it's been a few weeks since he seen him last. Golden Crown just wasn't the same without the weekly visit from his purple haired friend. He closed the shaker and began to shake the shaker to mix the drink. It took a few seconds for him to finish before he opened and poured the liquid in the glass. He set the shaker aside and replaced the now refilled glass on the bar.
Minato had gone to the bar a few times, upon meeting Emon, he couldn't help but feel a great need in taking any available chance he got too head to the bar to spend time with him. Whether it be too have a drink alone, or having the pleasure of having conversation with him. Today was a usual evening, having gone to the bar for a drink only too have the pleasure of Emon joining him for conversation and drinks. "Oh?" He'd answer in return, having lifted the glass to his lips for a sip before setting it back down. "I've counted the minutes before I'd get the chance to see you again." He answered in return, with attempt at proving that he enjoyed Emon's company. "I think we got a new record." He added, granted he had rushed to head here and got lucky that Emon was working tonight. He finished his drink and had set it back down, preparing to request a refill before Emon beat him too it. "Thank you." He answered politely, watching as Emon prepared his drink. "Yes it has been, but nothing I can't handle. I assure you." He answered, attempting too be convincing on the subject. Though it was true there were times when it was rather tiring, nothing would compare too his feelings when his job proved accomplishments through gaining evidence. He watched as the liquid was poured in the glass before it had been replaced in front of him. My turn. He thought to himself as he smiled when Emon mentioned it being on the house. "I owe you one." He answered, smile on his face as he lifted his glass to sip it.
[attr="class","monbody"] That earns a hearty chuckle out of the Oni, not sure whether if the comment was genuine or one made for humor purposes but Emon's grin widened. "Are you really that eager? My my, it's not often people so willingly confess how much they like seeing me like that." He winks playfully while he withdrew to retrieve his own glass of alcohol. "Dare... do I even assume you're thinking about me all the time too?" He's enjoying himself clearly and he even laughs at his own comment. It was nice to let down his serious persona comfortably around Minato. Good company like this wasn't easy to come by so the Oni felt quite blessed to have a frequent customer who he bonded well with.
"Mmm you say that buuu~t if it was the case I'd see your pretty face around here more often, y'know?" He teases lightly while he takes another sip from his glass. "I get how busy work can be, trust me. I don't think running a bar could compare to your line of work to be fair... but still, keep it up, Minato." A small compliment of encouragement. Emon hoped it could boost his morale if at all. "There's also the fact that you are getting a break so cheers to that." He chirps with a short hum following. "I wonder if it's possible for you to slide in another break? Not now but there's this new restaurant I've been wanting to go to. I figure I'd extend an invite to you? I enjoy your company and it'll be all on me so free food for you... What do you think?"
Minato couldn't help but smile as he heard Emon's chuckle. "Well I am eagered." He confessed, lifting his hand slowly too his neck too rub it nervously before lowering his hand back down. Slowly he blushes when Emon asks his question. Well I mean... if I get side tracked, maybe a little bit... Oh who am I kidding, if I get side tracked I think about you a lot. He thought too himself. "Well I mean, possibly...." He admits, not desiring too make Emon think he wouldn't. Though he wasn't planning on saying but how often he could become side tracked because he was usually busy, even if he was eating his meal. He couldn't help but blush when Emon teased him. "Well I mean..." He started but as soon as Emon added his comment, "Yeah." He agreed, believing he'd be here more often if it wasn't for work. "More than just a break." He teased in return, viewing being in Emon's presence a pleasure. Slowly he raised the glass too his lips, taking a sip before somewhat choking on it when he heard Emon's question.
"I'd love too." He answered, smile on his lips at the idea of being able too enjoy a meal with Emon, secretly wishing this was a date. "When, would you like too go?" He asked curiously as waited too hear his answer.
