Disclaimer: I do not own Moulin Rouge, and therefore, none of the people in it (*sighs* If only I owned Ewan McGregor). I'm only borrowing them for a little while and will put them back (relatively) unharmed. Also, the style, like my other secret diary, is based off of Cassandra Claire's Lord of the Rings Very Secret Diaries.
A/N: After my Puck Diary, I wanted to do another one because these are fun. While watching Moulin Rouge for the umpteenth time, I hit inspiration. R&R to tell me if I'm on the right track here. :)
The Secret Diary of The Duke
Day 1
Have been searching for names. Am v. tired of being simply referred to as 'The Duke'. Am I not a person behind this cold and neurotic personality? Don't I have feelings, too?
Day 5
Name search still on. Need something that will be welcoming without overwhelming. Maybe Bob.
Met v. handsome boy today. Unfortunately seems to be infatuated with skimpily dressed courtesan.
Seems that while I was distracted by his gorgeous singing, perfect haircut, well-fitted clothes, and wonderful smile I invested in some silly play. Whups.
Day 16
Am becoming disenchanted with handsome writer. He never seems to stop singing.
Day 17
Why won't he sing to me?
Day 20
Was sung to by Zidler today. Found it somewhat arousing. May be able to look past expansive gut and bad fashion taste in time.
Day 21
Was told by handsome writer that courtesan doesn't love me. Feigned anger.
Little does he know that I want him to love me.
Beat up courtesan out of frustration. In hindsight, probably bad move. Handsome writer now annoyed with me.
Day 22
Told manservant in front of Zidler to kill handsome writer. After Zidler left, changed order to knock out handsome writer and drag him to Gothic Tower.
We will discus his 'ending' there.
Day 23
Skimpily dressed courtesan died. Handsome writer in suicidal depression. Maybe will drop by to cheer him up with my own rendition of 'Ms. Saigon'.
After much deliberation have decided on Dexter. A name that embodies all that is me.
