I still like to believe he sees his duplicates in his head randomly.

Shoutout to these amazing artists, their way of adding personality into the characters and their versions are really unique.

Even though I mostly prefer drawing robots & machinery, making these fanarts were really fun and also were a good practice for me. Might do this again one day, but surely taking a break from drawing humans for now.

“- To train and respect each other. ”

Another no-logic cliffhanger, the ancient cave murals in season 3.

Obviously in the show Duke didn’t see the murals despite somehow being in the same cave, but I believe it would be a deep switch if he at least took a glimpse of it or heard the team’s conversations about the questioning. Imagine not remembering anything about your past and finding out your ‘ancestors’ painting you as the devil over a wall with a timeline that doesn’t add up on each other. What was even the point of them finding the ‘fight’ mural from the past if it didn’t mean anything? They could’ve connect stories together, or at least make a reference towards Season 1 events with a better situation. Energy this, energy that…

It’s already a complex situation that season 3 is limitedly available, it makes it harder to even get an idea on what is going on between the episodes that doesn’t even connect to each other properly. I haven’t seen people really discuss about the situation, so I’m here as a depth seeker.

-“Having flashbacks?”

“You can’t deny your past but you can change your future. “

We all know he switched teams lately. He secretly chose to be the one that sacrifices, again. Since we know him or maybe even since he knows himself he was been there for others. He secretly cares, maybe more than the shining heroes in the team. All the self-destructions / deaths, all the struggle, all the effort and all the saves that he made for others in all seasons. Uncountable and unexplainable yet not undeniable. He had to ‘look’ good to be claimed good in other’s eyes.

Duke had to change himself instead of being accepted. The vulnerable pattern that the virus tracked down to use Duke is still obvious in his personality, despite S2 and S3 having almost no relation to the first season. It’s just another way of saying that his help and effort never meant anything and was going to be unseen if he was staying himself, quiet and in the background.

Now, another perspective of the same quote;

“You can change your future but you can’t deny your past. “

Here’s the wasted potential in a train body you’ve been searching for. He is the second but in everything, it gives him a huge role that everyone ignores.

Duke won’t be forgotten, despite being a terrorizing memory for the whole plaza. I really miss S1 for character development and the depth of the lore. Many theories, many conflicts.
