This character is absolutely amazing, probably my second favourite in Nevermore.
He's pragmatic, but also tries to follow his morals. He never tries to be cruel on purpose, and the only time he did was because Ada had crossed so many lines with him, that he couldn't stand it anymore. Yes, he said horrible things to her, but in the end he is ready to help because he's not a little shit like Monty. Go save our girl(s)!
Please don't die you deserve happy things.
The fact that despite everything that has happened between them, Prospero still cares more about Ada’s well-being than her own ‘boyfriend’ and is immediately prepared to put himself at risk to go back and help her
Berenice morella and eulalie all at zero makes me sad like how are the staff beating them :(
Who would have guessedddd. Ngl cannot tell if its my own bias of *wanting* to be prospero or not but the like 3-4 aromantic coded answers I gave also helped. The timed question terrified me never do that to me again.
I’ll keep adding to it to make it better, but for now, here’s a Nevermore quiz!!! <3
Omg nevermore post this is crazy
Anyway I want to share a song from my prospero playlist, beneath the mask by lyn (from the persona 5 ost) this song has lyrics directly referencing the masque of the red death by edgar allan poe which if you didn’t know is the story prospero comes from :D
Heres the lyrics that directly reference the story
In the masque of the red death the kingdom the prince prospero oversees it facing a plague and the rich avoid it by hiding away in their homes which the poor cannot afford prospero grows bored waiting for the plague to pass so he hosts a masquerade (“at poe’s masquerade”) at the masquerade a figure appears wearing all red and a mask of a corpse prospero is offended by what he assumes is a cruel joke so he unmasks the offender (“please don’t take off my mask”) only to find there is nothing underneath (“I have no face to show”) the figure was a manifestation of the red death itself and everyone in the masquerade had just been infected
I was playing persona 5 sitting in cafe Leblanc and listening to this song when I was like “poe’s masquerade??” “Masque of the red death???” “PROSPERO!??!?!” Just wanted to share ^-^
(oh also this is an oversimplification of the masque of the red death I skipped a lot of the details and didn’t get into the themes at all please go read it yourself or find a more detailed summary its so good)
Guys I’m coming out /j (you already know im trans masc aroace lol)
I used to be an annabel lee hater.
BUT LISTEN I’VE REFORMED IVE REFORMED I’VE CHANGED
So originally I didnt like annabel lee that much which was mostly because I was a huge duke fan and I enjoyed his friendship with lenore more then lenores romantic relationship with annabel (aromantic :P) and the way she would essentially brush off all of lenores friends irked me then it turned into actual hate when she was part of the reason duke almost died
BuUuuUuUut
Then I became more of a prospero enjoyer then a duke one and lemme tell you annabels friendship with prospero completely redeemed her in my eyes
Anyway so don’t kill me I love her now shes so silly, I love posh besties, annabels just a girl how could you hate her?
Sometimes I have nothing to add to the nevermore fandom accept for being sad I don’t look like prospero and I think that should be more acceptable tbh
Annabel lee and Prosperos friendship is like my favorite thing. These two upperclass idiots have had tons of political and social allies but never an actual real friend but they’re trying and its great. Annabel is clearly copying Lenore to learn how to have friends essentially, she even copied the fact that Lenore calls her friends darling and as we’ve seen these pet names are really important to Annabel. She calls Lenore pet she calls everyone else love which she’s said is empty to her and she has one other unique name. She calls Prospero darling she’s trying and its cute I love that. I also love how their dynamic is literally just tea (both in the literal and metaphorical sense) they talk drama over tea. Prosperos “Annabel lee!” when she told him she got black mail on montresor is so funny his face is everything I love that part. Do I think Annabel and Prospero are the best friends in the world not really but they’re working on it and it would be really interesting to see if they end up caring about each other even a little bit past their goals in the end.
Some people probably read over the fact that prospero tried to set boundaries so heres some examples of times ada should have realized she is going too far, times prospero set his boundaries, and times they were ignored
The way he said to her “we talked about this don’t touch me” only for her to touch him only a few panels later is crazy and also proves hes tried to talk to her about this and she only dismisses it and him as just being shy. Plus he is aromantic specifically romance repulsed he wasn’t exaggerating when he said she made him sick thats what romance repulsion is it’s not just “I don’t wanna be in a romantic relationship” romantic anything is actually REPULSIVE and sickening plus her being so incredibly public with it is embarrassing and would be actual torture
I’ve legitimately went through every post on both “#prospero nevermore” and “#nevermore prospero” I need more prospero content send help
