About DMC, only heard of it, haven’t the slightest clue what it’s about.
Right basically @ornien DMC can be boiled down to -
This hot dude
fighting this hot dude
who both happen to be twin sons of this awesome duo
one of which is actually an ascended demon (Bug Dad),
the other of which is just awesome but got fridged cos of this asshole - the Emperor of Darkness/King of Hell/Captain too many eyes/hands (whatever)
who fights Hot Dude No 1 in the first game with the help of a clone of mum who turns good.
Oh and there’s this awesome lady in DMC 3 (prequel)
who has beef with this creepy bald dude who happens to be her dad (yeah she got her looks from mum)
who helps Hot Dude No 2 to unleash hell to become like Bug Dad (everyone wants to have the power of Bug Dad - it is known…)
who sealed away hell in the first place.
Then we get this dude in DMC 4
who happens to be the son of Hot Dude No 2 (we’re not sure how - Hot Dude No 2 seems to dislike humanity/feelings in general) and spends the fourth game fighting his uncle (misunderstanding) to save this lovely lady
who then gets kidnapped by the Pope who he has to fight too, along with a giant statue of his Grandad…(did I mention everyone is obsessed with Bug Dad?)
Have I missed anything? (DMC 2 ugh sorry, don’t know that game well :( )
Oh and they are all very stylish…being stylish is important. Also deciding between humanity and demonic power and what humanity really means…
if u ever think ur being overly petty and bitter just remember there once was a portuguese prince whose dad assassinated the woman he loved & when he became king he literally had her body exhumed & placed upon the throne as his queen & forced the portuguese nobility (aka most of his father’s supporters) to pledge their alliance to her & kiss the hem of her clothes so that they would “render her when dead that homage which she had not received in her life” (x)
WHERE DO YOU PEOPLE EVEN GET THESE STORIES FROM???! DO YOU LIKE MAKE THEM UP OR SMTH??!
yeah… or i’m portuguese and know my history
okay so like, this is one of my favorite parts of Portuguese history
and it’s not because I have the same name as her or anything (even tho it’s definitely a factor - because how cool is that?!? - and I kinda used - and sometimes still use, let’s be real here - that as an excuse to call myself a queen because reASONS and shut up you would do the same)
but because that shit is like the stuff of legends and there is a whole myth surrounding their love story and the supposed place where she was killed - on the king’s orders near a fountain in the farm where she secretly lived with prince Pedro - because there’s a red stain there and it’s said that when she was stabbed she cried for the king’s men to spare her children (if memory serves me right) and her tears landed on the fountain and turned red because she was terribly devastated and in pain thinking only of her children and how she was going to leave them without a mother when in the last moments of her life…
and also, you know that prince? before he did that thing when he exhumed her just to make her ~officially~ his queen - and have everyone who ever opposed to them and their love kiss her clothes to pay her homage and the respect she did not have in life?? like that shit savage bro - he did another thing, even more savage than that
he searched the whole country for the two dudes who stabbed her (there was a third but I think he died or smth), even went to spain because one of them fled the country after the king died, and he fucking RIPPED their hearts out (one from the front and one from the back, because Inês was stabbed from both sides too) and tortured them in public, y'know, as you do
and that, my dear friends, is why the story of Pedro and Inês is considered one of the best love stories on our country (and I would say the world too because that shit better than anything Shakespeare or Nicholas Sparks ever wrote and it was fucking real)
my boy Pedro didn’t fuck around when you fucked with his lady, and you lyin’ if you say you don’t want you a freak like this - this Extra™, this ride or die, this savage - when it comes to love.
listen up, girls and boys, take note: follow their example and get yourselves a freak who would crown you queen after you were killed
TL;DR: basically Portuguese history has the best love story in the world and its the most savage thing you could imagine. go look it up - the story of Pedro and Inês. *mic drop*
