Descript

Hello friends, welcome to The Deranged World. This domain is primarily a personal introspection of thoughts, feelings and activities. Some of them are funny, some slightly emotional, some exceedingly intellectual, and others completely nonsensical in nature. But nevertheless, they all reflect a truthful element of myself then. In addition, you may check out the Project RN series located at 'Interchange'. Do leave a comment as an when you wish, I'll be more than glad to reply them.

The 3 way relationship


Currently, all drafts, drawings, and entries on project W itself are capped at at a level of development of approximately 3.14. This is because I do not want the my characters to change in their personalities or characteristics even while I am writing the story. Doing so would result in an inconsistency in narration and even irrelevance to the story, and I do not want to re-write it for the fourth time anymore, therefore we are now more or less stuck with these characters for the time being.


I like these current characters right now. Kim, Ian, and Elle; three people with radically different character traits from each other, each very individual in their own respect, and yet all of them paradoxically incomplete on their own unless they actually be together and compliment each other...


This is what I mean:


Kim- Matured in mind, very practical, but easily deluded by emotional insecurity and scars.

Ian- Naive, refers to past experiences, influenced easily, yet determined when mind is set.

Elle- Thinks only how to suit the situation to her personal agenda. Always covers her mistakes.


Integrating Kim and Ian would actually normalize out the innate insecurity of Kim with the innate determination of Ian. Moreover Ian's easily influenced personality and Naive-ness would be countered with the maturity and practicality of Kim. In this way Kim and Ian actually compliments each other in both an internal and external sort of way when put together


Integrating Kim and Elle would on the other hand blend in an essence of mental creativity of Elle via her personal agendas with the practicality of Kim. Kim's fatal mistakes of being easily deluded by emotional security would too be protected and covered with Elle's innate ability to cover her mistakes.


Integrating Ian and Elle too would actually normalize Ian's Innocent and naive outlook with Elle's complex, scheming personality. In this case, it seems as if the integration of Ian and Elle would arise a case where the character of Elle 'eats' Ian up; paradoxically, Elle's ability to think very complexly without action is actually complimented with Ian's determination when his mind is set.


And thus it makes sense why these three people are bonded together in such a sort of way. In the story, Elle is supposed to be dominating Ian until Ian meets Kim, whom had always looked up on Elle as a bigger sister (for protection and inspiration). Then Kim and Ian get together and they clique well together without actually knowing why. Their relationships forged are not one of coincidence, but actually due to the complimenting of characters and identity. This would thus give this story an edge of practicality and make it real, unlike the case of a typical drama serial where people meet purely out of coincidence with little meaning behind


anyway, attached is a conceptual picture of the three of them together, each portraying their own characters. Note the contrast in these characters as they stand side by side, and yet do note that somehow it seems as if this picture is balanced out itself already in its own respect. This is actually because of the background fact of the complimenting of the characters. Perhaps you may feel it, perhaps you may not, anyway do enjoy.
