TODAY'S TGS UPTADE ✨
Okay, so... I can't lie, watching Jekyll being a chaotic bastard it's the hottest thing I ever seen
Of course Hyde it's the one controling the body here, but also their are the same person
Something that Jekyll forgot
This whole scenario would be terrifying if Hyde wasn't part of Jekyll.
So, reading Hyde's words we can realise that he didn't feel all the action from last night, so of course, with now Jekyll getting his feelings of love back, Hyde gets the extreme of them; Lust towards Laynon... Or at least he acts like that, but only to piss off Jekyll in this page (I mean that Hyde is in love too). So of course he would want to get something private and deep with him
And then we have the other side. Jekyll is scare like if Hyde could actually STEAL Robert from him, which it's kinda sussy that Henry talks about Laynon like something of his, that he owns, at least to Hyde (I think my man still has some 🚩🚩🚩 to fix)
And also Jekyll being a hyprocite because he talks about Hyde as if they didn't came from the same mind and soul and talks about Hyde's flaws like if that was all he is. But Hyde belives that Laynon will like him too for who he is as his own without Henry, and also asking to Jekyll about his own flaws. Edward it's clearly using this to make Jekyll feel bad and think that Hyde it's better than him.
He just casually talk to himself out loud while doing shit with people. Love it
Hyde, Hyde, the cop it's watching, Hyde, Hyde Oh my god he can't hear us my boy it's going to PRI--
Just kidding, I wonder how this is gonna turn now. Will Hyde be able to convince the cop to not arrest him? Would he run away and fix it later? Would he go to prision? Who knows!
Now, after what we saw in this new page... I have a question:
It's Hyde evil?
Hyde stole a umbrella to a lady that was just walking, kick some kid's ball when the little one was about to cach it, and just grab a cup
In the begining of the comic Hyde made some mess up things that werent actually meant with evil
He gladly stab someone with a umbrella, but it was to save Creature from being burn alive
Then he set the street on fire, it was a accident and he didn't even expect it to happend but he looks proud of it and even laughs
Of course, the next day he realised he fuck up but dosen't like to admit it every much. He it's emotional, and has exciment when he see chaos, but at the same time he knows that theres limits
Then, talking about Jekyll "betraying" him with the officer. Hyde put him killing a random dude like a example of how even with that Jekyll wouldn't be able to bring Hyde to the law
And the most recent one was Hyde actually hurting a man in the face, actually enjoy it
But the thing it's that the comic itself tells us that Hyde isn't exactily the evil inside Jekyll. The whole freaking chapter 10 it's a non stop show to gaslight and mocking at Hyde and all his idea of who he was
So, Hyde it's not evil? He wants to be, and his actions brings chaos but not that harmful, except the time he burned the street but that was not intentional
But then if he is not the evil? Why he wants to be evil? Because Hyde it's in a constant searching for power, in this page he acts smug while bothering the people around him, and also thinks about taking Laynon too so he can feel powerful over Jekyll again. If Hyde dosen't feel powerful he would literally fall deep down to the darkness of his own mind, but if he can ruin someone else by doing that, then he will take it. Hyde himself said it in chapter 12 "I will take Jekyll down with me!" The right moment he is told about that chance to ruin Henry, even if it was forever
Hyde finds comfort of being the evil twin because that's the only way he knows to feel the senses of control while feeding his constant hunger for acction and passion on his life, and that actually worked it for two whole years, until Henry puts him a stop for just two weeks. If only Hyde waited, he could had his delusional life back but he didn't, and now him and Jekyll will going down together
Because they keep forgeting that they are in the same boat.

hey i saw your request are open and i was wondering about a diasomnia dorm and a platonic reader who has a Alter Ego similar to Jekyll and Hyde
Hi, Luv!
Thank you so much for the request. I hope you enjoy the scenarios I made for all the Diasomnia boys as I did. So much so that I made it into five pages on my roughs. I'm going to split it into two parts, so I hope that you can enjoy both.
Now without further ado...
The Alter Ego - The Diasomnia Boys x Platonic! Reader (Pt. 1)
~Malleus Draconia~
This poor unfortunate soul has no idea what he’s in for. He will admit, when he first met you, he had suspicions that something was off. He couldn’t tell what it was, exactly, but the way you sometimes cut your nightly conversations short and rush inside Ramshackle made him worry for you.
You’re one of the only people he can call a friend in his opinion. After months of your nightly interactions, he sees you as a good friend. Granted, he confesses that he was weirded by the fact that you were never intimidated by him, he’s glad that you still talk to him from time to time.
That being said, he never really bothered to check up on you whenever you rushed yourself back inside your dorm. It’s not that he didn’t care, more so he was afraid that whatever happened if he did could potentially ruin the friendship you guys had. Plus, surely you had control of what was happening to you, right?
One night, however, you never showed up outside Ramshackle for one of your conversations. While he does realize that this might just be a rare occurrence, the idea that he never saw you at all that day worried him a bit. Could you perhaps be sick? After all, it could’ve been that no one has seen you or your furry familiar since yesterday.
This eventually led to the situation he was in as he stood in front of your dorm, his hand on the knob, ready to enter at any given moment. While he does acknowledge that he should’ve asked beforehand, he valued your well-being above all else, hence why he was alarmed when he was greeted by torn and broken furniture all around the common room the moment he entered.
It wasn’t until he heard a noise upstairs did he take further action and followed where the sound came from. Concerning enough, he was led to your room as he heard something smash while Grim was yelping in fear. He slowly opened the door to see a sight he wouldn’t suspect - there you were, towering over Grim with malice in your eyes, your hair a frizzy mess as you were surrounded by countless debris of wood and glass. You turned your attention to Malleus the moment that you heard your door creak, and as you both stared into each other's eyes, he could sense something animalistic behind yours. Out of what appeared to be instinct, you lunged at him, but you couldn’t even touch him before you blacked out.
You woke up the next morning in your bed, still surrounded by the debris in your room with Malleus nowhere to be seen. The next time you met up with him, you apologized for the attempted attack, now feeling like you owed him an explanation. You leaned against one of the stone pillars reciting on how you’ve had this kind of curse on you for as long as you remembered, though this other side of you has shown up more frequently in the last few months. You didn’t want to hurt him, but you didn’t know how to control this force, much less find a way to get rid of your curse.
After your explanation, Malleus could only stare in astonishment, wondering how he couldn’t have noticed sooner. However, despite you trying to harm him that night, he now knows that you weren’t the one to blame. Since then, he vows to help you whenever he can, even if finding a way to get rid of this other side to you turns out to be futile in the end. After all, you’re his friend, and nothing else mattered to him more than your company.
~Lilia Vanrouge~
Lilia has been through it all and has seen most of what life has to offer. He’s not new to strange and weird phenomena, yet when he notices you wandering down the halls during class sometimes, he will admit that he’s intrigued by your presence. The way that you look so focused, yet so concerned about walking to your destinations made him intrigued by your character.
So what does he do to get closer to you? Well, in good old Lilia fashion, he’ll sometimes make impromptu greetings by dropping in from the ceiling. Yes, this does scare the living daylights out of you, but hey, he gets to know a little bit more out of you the more he does it and vice versa.
You develop a strange friendship the more the two of you bond in those hallways, but neither of you seem to mind. After a while, you don’t seem to be scared of him suddenly showing up in front of you to chat. The only thing that slightly annoys him is that you never explain why you kept missing class time just to walk in the halls.
Eventually, he didn’t even need to ask. One fateful day, he tried talking to you again when he noticed something was off. You were walking faster. Your breathing was heavier. He even noticed that your hair was slightly disheveled and frizzy with a thin layer of sweat on your forehead.
Now what this was about, he had no clue. Were you sick, he wondered? It took a while before he could figure it out when another student walking in the hall bumped into you. It didn't seem like anything intentional, as the student was on his phone when he grazed your shoulder.
Yet why did you look like you were about to tear him apart? Why did you suddenly push the boy against the wall even after he apologized? Why were you screaming at him with the most vulgar profanities that could make a mother weep? This was nothing like you at all. Just as you were about to punch the poor boy, Lilia grabbed you by the back of your collar to pull you away from him, giving enough space between you two that he was able to get away from you. You didn't appreciate that.
With deranged eyes and a scowl that seemed permanent on your face, you didn't give a second thought before you lunged at him like a wild animal. But if you really thought that you could even lay a scratch on him, you couldn't even imagine how Lilia subdued you with a sleeping spell without hesitation. When you woke up, he was right beside you in the nurse's office.
Despite the previous attack, he didn’t seem too upset by your behavior. Nonetheless, you explained how you accidentally placed a curse on yourself one day while studying after school. It was an honest mistake, but one wrong mispronunciation was all it took to get you into this mess. Lilia listened intensely, taking every bit of your story into consideration. It all made sense now, he wondered, and knowing the truth, he wants to see more of it. Clasping his hands together, he makes a promise to you that he would gladly assist in helping you break this curse, secretly hoping what else this new side of you has to offer. As a friend, of course!

Jekyll originally creates hyde to avoid social shame, hyde becomes out of control
Jekyll cannot reconcile ‘an impatient gaiety of disposition’

Private life vs public life
Do we have a self-imposed underground?
Race, Gender, Sexuality
(Social norms, rules, consequences)
Before the 19th century we had very different views on emotion
Appetites – base desires
Sentiments – voluntary, associated with moral behaviour
English words related to embarrassment: discomfiture, awkwardness, mortification, humility, uneasiness, self-consciousness, shame
How does the way language is used affect the way we perceive concepts and emotions?
The way in which phrases are used can adjust how we view the concept, for example in English we use the term ‘falling in love’ which can make you look at the concept of love in a different way as ‘falling’ is very descriptive and can be related to intensely becoming infatuated with someone.
How the English language is structured varies from other European and Latin derived languages …
Social emotion is created by culture// can be quite dark
How one tweet can ruin your life/ Jon Ronson ted talk
Freudian psychology
Id: instincts
Primitive, unorganised, illogical, unconscious, ‘es’

Mature, reasonable, intermediary between the id and the external world, able to defer gratification
Super-ego: morality
Internalisation of cultural rules
Id: Hyde
Ego: Enfield
Super-ego: Utterson

‘Avoid neurosis and perversion by repeatedly playing out your fixations through art’ Storr, 1989, p92
William deacon brodie 1741-1788: used as inspiration for Jekyll and Hyde.
Stevenson also wrote a play-write about William brodie
Stevenson dreamt the story of Jekyll and Hyde
‘The dream is an unfulfilled wish’ Freud
Dreams are divided into manifest (details remembered) content and the latent (true meaning) content.
Dream-work - The mental processes by which desires are made acceptable to the conscious mind by being disguised as bizzar manifest content – Freudian concept
Stevenson was ‘ahead of his time’ inspiring painters, sculptors and writers to pay attention to the irrational and the unconscious mind.
Salvador dali// luis bunuel – un chien andalou 1929 – dream inspiration.
Notes 13/12/12 story adaptation session 2 notes
Chapter 3 summary
- First time meeting Dr Jekyll
- Jekyll tells Utterson that Lanyon is narrow minded
- Also tells him to ‘let it sleep’ in regard to Mr Hyde
Chapter 4 summary
- Nearly a year passes peacefully
- Mr Hyde commits murder (kills a respectable MP)
- The event is witnessed and strangely described
- Full moon (link to supernatural, transformation, werewolf’s heightened emotion, easy to see action)
- The maid servant sits at her window, falls into a dream of musing
- ‘the moon shone on his face as he spoke’ dreaming of a man in a higher class, romanticising wealth
Hyde in a ‘great flame of anger’
Setting up a duality present in the murder scene (tranquil romanticism to brutal gore)
His death can be seen as symbolic ‘the death of innocence’ ; this murder also builds the legend of Mr Hyde, making him more of a threat, placing the other characters in more peril.
Utterson exhibits his usual self-control (super-ego) dressing himself properly and supressing emotion before leaving the house.
They travel to Soho ‘some city in a nightmare’
- Mr Hyde has done a runner, but the policeman is optimistic
- Motivated by money
- Ends on a cliff-hanger, with a clear hook for chapter 5
Homosexual subtext
Carew ‘accosts’ Hyde with a very pretty manner of politeness
- Working class men of the era were sometimes seen as erotic objects by their aristocratic superiors
- Mr Hyde is classless but would be read as a working-class man
- ‘Blackmailers charter’
- ‘buggery’ had been a criminal offence since 1533-1967
- 1921 there was an attempt to make lesbianism a criminal offence
- The word homosexual wasn’t used in English until 1892
- Victorians mainly used the word uranian / sexual deviancy
The duality of Robert Louis Stevenson
-outwardly effeminate
-straight, relentlessly pursued his wife
-wealthy but dressed down
-very bad teeth
-born to strictly religious parents, but went drinking etc
-lots of travel writing
-played at lower class
-many male admirers
-no biographical evidence that Stevenson had any homosexual urges
Queer-baiting
Gothic Horror
- ‘the nocturnal setting, the theme of monstrosity’
- The birth of gothic horror: architecture, literature. Castle of otranto 1764
- Fascinated by strange places; imprisoning, free and wild
- Sense of time; relation between the modern world and the past: the ghost
- Power: supernatural, obscenely powerful, completely vulnerable
- Focus on innate desires, irrational needs
- Sexual power: perverse, weird, dangerous, un-consensual, same-sex
- The uncanny: new vs archaic/strange, but familiar; figures that look human but are not e.g. dolls, wax figures.
- The sublime; awesome, overwhelming, terrifying
- Crisis; gothic horror tends to arise in political change
- The supernatural and the real
Inspired by dreams,
Mr Hyde represents the primitive past/ pre civilised human
No one can ever quite describe Mr Hyde
If you’re writing a horror film bring your own fears in to make the description of terror more real and convincing to the audience- harness the techniques of the power of the uncanny- make it un-secret- give the viewer time to feel the fear- make it unhomely/strange.
Birth of the city/ the urban gothic
- Jekyll and hyde was the first urban gothic
- London was the largest city in the world
- Mid 1800’s there was a flux of people moving from the country to the city; many living in slums with no sanitation
- Some people read into the book as more like Edenborough
- Child labour was common at this time (as young as 3)
The evil within
- Intrinsic
- ‘curled around the very heart of the respectable middleclass norm’
- Something shameful and hidden
- How do you destroy it if it is within you?
- Middle class Victorians had a great fear that sexual depravity and other kinds of decay would pass from the nocturnal world to the safe space of the home
- STD’s and repercussions
- City described as an equal source of desolation and menace
- Artists used sublimation to heal their neurosis through art and literature (Freud)
The urban laboratory and the strange science of the mind
- ‘what the scientist tends more and more to dabble with is the mind’
- Table turning; people place their hands on the table, encouraging a spiritual entity to move the table 1852
- Fox sisters
- Questioning boundaries, the occult
- Suspense of disbelief, advancing technology, so why not spirituality?
- Lead to the belief that science and the occult were very close
- The dual-brain theory; divided into two separate hemispheres that could be two separate personalities or soul/spirit // left=logic, right=emotional
- Women were seen as very right brained in Victorian times
Sergeant F: the uncanny quality of the double
- Ordinarily kind
- Displayed multiplex personality (DID) when altered
- Caused by injuries
- Displayed personality changes
Victorians also believed that your personality could be read in the shape of your skull; meaning you could be born criminal, inferior, unsuccessful. This allowed the inequality in the society to continue.
Phrenology 1796
Used to support racist and classist concepts
‘The professional sickist’
- Stevenson wrote a lot in bed whilst ill
- Married a hypochondriac woman
- ‘the strange case’ of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde
- Jekyll and Hyde is both physician and patient // doctor becomes patient
The burke and hare murders

Hyde
I’ve always enjoyed those dichotomy stories. Or whatever the right word is, I’m not in the mood to fact check my internal dictionary. Those stories like Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde and United States of Tara, but they never quite struck the note. They hinted at it but never delved into the feeling of having that other side. Someone else there ready to mess with your life and ruin things. But like really ruin things. That someone else takes your face and masquerades around being... just... not you. And then you fade back in and it’s you again but what have you done this time. Or the fade is so seamless that you don’t realize and suddenly someone you were friends with doesn’t speak to you anymore or just treats you differently. And you don’t know why, and if you’re like me you won’t find out for a while because your timid and worried and anxious and shy and questioning anything just seems like you’re admitting fault for... for what?... You weren’t there... You don’t even know when it happened or IF it happened...
And you meet someone who says they know it’s not you, but because they’ve never been through it, they don’t get it all the time and the same things come up, questions about how you could do that or why you would say those things or act that way and you remember being in the backseat and seeing it happen but it was happening through someone else. Through Mr Hyde.
But Mr Hyde doesn’t take responsibility. It’s you, Dr Jekyll, who has to apologise and promise to try not to do it again. But you can’t promise something out of your grasp.
This may all seem like a bit of shifting blame, but when you’re beating yourself up about all those little mis-actions the other takes, you aren’t shifting blame. You may even be putting more on yourself than you should. I know I am. And I’ll probably continue to do so.
But there’s always hope for change, and I am trying my hardest. Mr Hyde still finds the control panel sometimes, but I’m getting better at knowing when it’s his actions and when it’s mine. Though, I’LL apologise just the same.
