I would have absolutely believed Duke was mad about the foundation of his angry writing being undermined by R'leks actions. Would have been the final step to portraying this lizard as a morron, while R'lek is a high-class journalist. But this characterization - pathological though it may be - also works very nicely. Duke just can't help himself. But he cares. And he has principles he sticks to. And drugs sticking to him I guess.

Great writing to be found here again as well. My favorite part has to be: "now it reads like any of my own fucking weekends!"

Great conclusion for the series!

All the best

Duke is amazing.

I've said all I could've said about how much I liked these pieces already, and Ik I'm incredibly late to the party, but this was a really beatiful ending, lizard man getting a moment to himself next to the last standing piece of the Moyoren puts a nice ribbon to Decadent and Depraved. I really wanna thank the team for bringing these stories (and characters) to life, Duke is set in stone as one of my favorites in the Library :')

A beautiful ending to an amazing series; I'm saddened that I hadn't read this piece before. I was missing on such a fun last adventure.

Can't wait to see Duke and R'lek again; definitely my favorite characters from wandercon. Might even try to write 'em someday…

For now though, a well-deserved +1~

I really enjoy how Duke and R'lyek's dynamic evolved from the other tales to this one, and the ending specially I enjoyed so much because it showed a facet of Duke we never saw before: one where he's calm and enjoying himself instead of being erratic. That bit and also the part where he defended R'lyek when both were going to be fired I enjoyed due to that breaking character bit.

Overall, this was a great ending piece for the Duke saga, and I literally cannot wait to see what the character we made together evolves to. I legit couldn't wish for better teammates than you all, and for that I thank you. For everything you've brought.
