Hello!! I wanted to ask about Emily and Iklis. Why doesn't anyone notice that they are literally the same in terms of appearance? They are both brown-eyed brunettes, Iklis has only gone more into gray. they... well, they could be a brother or sister... or relatives... I just re-read the chapters with the appearance of Iklis in the Eckharts a few days ago and there was a frame where they are together and this thought appeared

Ooh, I'd never noticed that before! Maybe Emily's family moved to Eorka shortly before the war with Delman, or during it? I don't think there's any real information about Emily's family ever, other than the fact she started working for the Eckharts when she was like nine so 👀

DITOEFTV/VADD Names

Something interesting I noted about all of the main character's names:

The Eckharts(At least the blood-related ones) have Germanic-leaning names.

Eckhart: Variation of Ekkehard. Derived from the Germanic elements ag "edge" and hard "brave, hardy".

Derrick: Variation of Derek. From the older English name Dederick, which was in origin a Low German form of Theodoric.

Reynold: From the Germanic name Raginald, composed of the elements ragin "advice" and wald "rule".

Yvonne/Ivonne: Comes from the masculine name Ivo. Germanic name, originally a short form of names beginning with the Germanic element iv meaning "yew".

Evelyn(Duchess Eckhart): From an English surname that was derived from the given name Aveline, which in turn derives from the Germanic element avi, of unknown meaning, possibly "desired". In the 17th century when it was first used as a given name it was more common for boys, but it is now regarded as almost entirely feminine.

Also, mild note, why do we not get the Duke's first name, but we get his deceased wife's? We even get the head maid's name, but noo, we can't have Duke Eckhart's full name 😒

Penelope and Callisto have Greek-inspired names. Judith's name, however, seems to have Hebrew roots. It's also used in German-speaking countries, so I guess the author wanted to tie back into Eckhart?

Penelope: Probably derived from penelops, a type of duck. Alternatively, it means weaver. In Homer's epic the Odyssey this is the name of the wife of Odysseus, forced to fend off suitors while her husband is away fighting at Troy.

Callisto: Derived from Greek kallistos meaning "most beautiful". In Greek mythology Kallisto was a nymph who was loved by Zeus, who was changed into a she-bear by Hera, becoming the Great Bear constellation.

Regulus: Roman cognomen(extra name) meaning "prince, little king", a diminutive of Latin rex "king". A star in the Leo constellation.

Judith: Judith is a generic name for "Jewish woman", appearing many times in the Bible's Old and New Testament. One of them is the main character of the apocryphal Book of Judith. She killed Holofernes, an invading Assyrian commander, by beheading him in his sleep. It is in common usage in English, French, German, many Scandinavian languages, Dutch, and Hebrew.

Winter's name seems to have foreshadowed his connection with the time loop.

Verdandi: From Old Norse Verðandi meaning "becoming, happening". Verdandi was one of the three Norns, or goddesses of destiny, in Norse mythology. She was responsible for the present.

Eckles/Iklies/Eckliss/Eclise(Seriously why does this man's name have so many spelling variations) has an original first name, but we can look at his middle and last name.(EDIT: Added blurb on Eckles' first name)

Eckles: From a variation of ickle (“icicle”), from Middle English ikil, ykle, can be traced all the way to Proto-Indo-European origins. Can also be linked to Middle English etlien, atlien, meaning (to think), also all the way to Proto-Indo-European origins.

Khan: From a title meaning "king, ruler". Its origin is most likely Mongolian but has been translated into many other languages.

Delman: As a first name, it means "Man from the Valley". The surname Delman was originally derived from the Old English word dell which referred to someone who inhabited an area close to a body of water or glade.

Vadd as things my friends have said

Ikiles: I literally look like a forty year old man with my hair Yvonne: no you don't! Ikiles: :D Penelope: yeah! you just look like Sid from Toy Story! Ikiles: >:(

Reynold: it's always hatsune miku with you! always! Yvonne: obviously Vinter: SEKAI DE ICHIBAN OHIME-SAMA!!! Penelope: i hate you all

Penelope: okay, so who would be...hmm, more likely to eat cement? Reynold: you Yvonne: you Ikiles: you Vinter: you Penelope: what?! why would you-oh yeah that actually makes a lot of sense

Yvonne: yeah, we're like best friends. forever! Earlier Vinter, passing Yvonne in the hall: hi bitch! Yvonne: fuck off!

Callisto: I'll give you a kiss if you do Penelope, gagging: I would rather die Yvonne: go die in a hole Vinter: and take a shower!!

Ikiles: i got kicked out of class one time for being too cool Yvonne: ...you threw candy at the teacher Ikiles: I was feeling generous Yvonne: it was stale. you had it in your backpack for years Ikiles: yeah okay that may have been why I was kicked out

[yvonneloveposting]

Penelope should get to castrate Derrick. As a treat <3 Meanwhile her boyfriend cheers her on

[yvonneloveposting]

Yvonne has a dagger. Penelope has a crossbow. Ikiles has a sword. Vinter has magic. Therefore, they could theoretical create a dnd party fairly successfully. Don't ask why I thought of this, I don't really know either at this point

[yvonneloveposting]

Yvonne being a little sister for Penelope my beloved <3. Just her following her around like a lost puppy for the first few days she's back until eventually Penny snaps and asks her what she wants from her and she's just like :D sisters!

Anyways they may or may not end up burning down the mansion with everyone but Ikiles inside and then the three of them go off and start a revolution and abolish slavery.

Revenge Against A God

Penelope but instead of someone reincarnating into her body she makes a deal with a demon. She's nigh unkillable, in return for ending Leila the first chance she gets. She takes the deal, needless to say, because why wouldn't she end someone whose all but ruined her life?

No one notices at first, but at one point it becomes hard not to. Derrick orders her to be locked in her room to either starve or die of dehydration, only for the duke to remember her a month later. They ram the door open, expecting to find a corpse- and instead find Penelope, happily reading her book. They don't question it, too relieved they hadn't "accidentally" killed her to care until much later.

Emily pokes her with the needle in her sleep, only for her eyes to fly open and seize her hand, a mad smile on her face. They say Emily flung herself off the balcony in a wild despair, while Penny smiles knowingly.

She meets Ikiles as she does in the original timeline, and they quickly become friends. She has him show her how to wield a sword, her only explanation being that she never knows when she'll be in danger. She waits Yvonne to arrive patiently, and then waits even longer until the time comes to poison her. But she knows better this time, and she doesn't get caught.

So while the house is all but empty, she approaches Ikiles and asks him to go on a walk with her in the gardens, before quickly ditching him in the middle of a rose maze to go run to the training grounds. Sword in hand, she enters Leila's room, only to find her sleeping soundly. She inches closer, before chopping the goddess' head clean off, a mad smile on her face.

Penelope keeps the sword, a demon whispering praise on her shoulder, and keeps the head, at least until she's made it to the front gate, killing whoever she saw. She mounts Leila's head on the wall, only for it to turn into a different person, and for the same girl to come running up behind her. Laughing.

She whirls around, ready to kill her once more, only for arms to wrap around her as not Leila but Yvonne embraces her tearfully. Thanking her. For her freedom. Her initial response is to plunge a sword in her back once more, just in case, before the very demon who sent her on this quest tells her this is not the goddess.

Penelope knows what it means to wish for freedom. Maybe she sees a little of her younger self in Yvonne, loathe as she is to admit it. So she sends her back to the house to grab as many valuables as she can, before heading back to the rose maze, only to be greeted by Ikiles.

She tells him to run, far, far away from the duchy. She cares about him, at least a little, and she knows he will be blamed for the massacre she has wrought. And so he runs, and so does she. Maybe they'll meet again, maybe they won't. Maybe its love they're feeling, maybe it's not. Either way they part, and he is long gone by the time Yvonne returns, giddy from excitement.

Penelope and Yvonne Eckart are dead. Have been for years. But Yvonne used to be Stephanie, and Penelope was once just Penny. And those two are not dead. They live traveling from city to city, experiencing what they never could.

Yvonne and Ikiles are, infact, the best duo. Romantically or otherwise, they have the energy of two golden retrievers playing fetch together. Said golden retrievers are responsible for several murders, of course, but that's besides the point.

[yvonneloveposting]

What if. Ikiles had a sister. Maybe she was his half sister or maybe not, either way she died in the revolution. Fast forward, years later Ikiles' revolution has succeeded and he's holding his sword to Callisto's throat. His reign ends here. As he stabs his sword through his throat, he turns around to see his sister standing behind him. Maybe it's a hallucination. Maybe it's not. But it's enough.

I think Yvonne and Iklies are better as a couple, they look so cute and intimate together, to the point that Iklies in his route was able to swear love to her. Even if they makeout in the corner they would look more intimate than any character in that story~

Ooh! I haven't heard of that ship before, but that is really cute! They really do seem intimate, and are also the only two characters in ditoeftv who like? Match eachother? I don't know, aesthetically they are immaculate though.

They also are co-conspirators, which I personally think is one of the best dynamics. Like yes, plot your little evil schemes together that's adorable. I wonder what they would be called. Maybe Ikonne? Idk, but that's a really cute ship!

[yvonneloveposting]

Actually I think Ikiles and Yvonne should be bros. I want them to play Animal Crossing together and plot revolutions because they've both been fucked over by the system and get matching build-a-bears.

Yvonne isn't sure who to give the shovel talk to when him and Penelope start dating so she just punches Derrick in the face (punching Derrick is usually the right thing to do). She accidently knocked him out so the three of them doodled on him for funsies.

Penelope joining the revolution meetings and also being that one friend who has everyone's Starbucks order memorized. Also she can makeout with Ikiles in the corner while Yvonne organizes their list of ways to topple the government in alphabetical order.

Ikiles and Yvonne playing 1v1 laser tag where they somehow both lose. Them making up diss tracks for the rest of the rivals. Ikiles and Yvonne.
