「死の少女」と呼ばれた人形師についての考察

を絡めたSSを今書いてます。でも内容が内容だけに一々鬱ってしまってなかなか進まない……投稿はいつになることやら。　◆とりあえずペンタブに慣れるために描いてみました。SSではもっと気の利いた文章で表現できればいいなぁ。　追記：SS化する前に漫画で描いてしまいました。pixiv #15944901 »

Do you know what real loneliness is?

A non-existent dream, no matter how plastic you make your mind ... Alice's theme, "Plastic Mind" reference

The 50l Murgatroyd is the largest volume wine bottle there is. A vessel for blood, the blood of life.

It's a family that was thought to have died out, an old family believed to have suddenly disappeared two centuries before.

What it's really like? What kind of a world it is? A human like you--

No, no human, fairy, youkai, oni, spirit, or even god--

No butterflies will dance, Some 2ch members claim that "Margatroid" is a portmanteau of the words "Margarite" and "Troides." "Troides" means "swallowtail butterfly" and Greece word "Margarite" means "pearl." So, her name means the pearl-like shining butterfly. The butterfly often symbolizes death.

--- I'm not worried at all.

If you want to save that twisted, pitiful doll that can never become human or youkai.

------ really, there's nothing. No worries, no sadness, nothing. Nothing nothing, nothing --------noooothing

Show me you can do something. Prove that you can end it. My faithful slave. Beloved child of the scarlet devil.

Hail.

a never-melting cage for the soul.

Pitiful clumps of ice whose own weight forces them to fall to the earth. It's neither rain nor snow. It's like a miniature world shut away in ice. It's a repudiation of life itself. It's ーーー

Honestly ...... it really does suit her well. Hail is associated with Alice Margatroid in Scarlet Weather Rhapsody

Sleeping Medicine Usage: [...] of nightmares [...]

A perfect world of death where no one should have been able to see.

No matter how much blood wine you pour into a lake with no fish ...

and there will be no-one to become drunk.

There's absolutely no-one there. It's a world of nothingness. An empty world where nobody has a name.

That's the ocean of the subconscious, the ocean of death. Dead Sea reference

The Butterfly Dream Pill

That's the dark side. You know what that means, right?

Yes, a place where it's midnight forever. Honestly, it's simple her fate.

A family believed to have not left behind a trace.

A world of darkness where no one can even see

Yes, struggle, Sakuya.

If you want to save that no-longer-human,

...the endless doll judgement of Bucharest. Reference to stage 3 theme "The Doll Maker of Bucuresti" and Alice's theme "Doll Judgment" in Perfect Cherry Blossom. Some Touhou fans think that "Doll Judgment (人形裁判)" is somewhat related to "Socialists' Kangaroo Court (人民裁判)." In the opinion of some 2ch members, Alice was one of "Ceausescu's children / orphans" before she was taken away to the Makai.

---- except for the girl of death. Some 2ch members claim that she died young once and was resurrected. Her title is "Girl / Witch of Death" in the Mystic Square. And one of her models, Alice in Shin Megami Tensei is a zombie deamon.

One of us. In the opinion of some 2ch members, Alice is a descendant of Vampires. One of the reasons is that in Anno-Dracula novel Murgatroyd is another name for Lord Ruthven.

Your target is that girl's time that was stopped in that city, the wall of ice that can't even be thawed by the red demon's power... "Red demon": Reference of Belial, the Red Count in Shin Megami Tensei. The word is also related to Shinki.
