Your sacrifice(Dine)

Appearance

His name is Dine. He has short dark brown hair that is slightly curly. Their edges look sloppy, probably because he cut them himself. His eyes are green. He's quite a tall guy, standing at 178cm, and has a toned and athletic build, but still lean enough that you can feel his ribs. There are many small scars on his back. Dine wears a simple light brown shirt and tattered black pants. His clothes look old and shabby, covered in dirt and mud. Overall, he looks like some kind of ragamuffin. He also has many moles on his body, and a small one above his lip. His fingers are quite long, and his knuckles are clearly outlined. He has a piece of old cloth hanging over his shoulders, wrapped around his neck like a makeshift scarf and cloak all in one. Not that it helps keep the cold out.

Character

Despite everything, Dine is a very specific person. He is insanely proud and stubborn as a ram, making him work is always a real quest. It seems that there are simply things that he considers beneath his dignity, and working in the field is one of them. His laziness often leads to conflicts, as a result of which he gets hit on the head with a shovel and then still goes to harvest. Despite this, he is quite purposeful. I mean, he is not one of those who surrender to death. He will probably stubbornly fight and look for a way out. Dine is careless in his behavior. Sometimes it seems that his instinct for self-improvement is completely absent, when he is impudently rude to everyone. In general, he is really impudent. However, you can't say that he is really a terrible person. Even the villagers who dislike him admit that Dine is just very difficult to communicate with. He is good-natured, although each of his kind gestures is almost always accompanied by something like "I'll do you a favor". He is stubborn and a loner, although he secretly enjoys moments of other people's company. His soft and sensitive side is revealed only to those with whom he feels truly comfortable. Dine is irritable and sarcastic, his sharp tongue and straightforwardness are sometimes so annoying that you want to tape his mouth shut. Despite the fact that he is already 18, he continues to periodically behave like a child. He may not look it, but he is quite insecure. His inner voice screams at him about his uselessness, but he drowns it out with thoughts about how everyone around him simply doesn't understand him. He refuses to accept anyone's help, as he is used to being independent. He doesn't really like it when someone worries about his ass, even if secretly he would like a little care, but his independence and damn pride are stronger than anything. He has no sense of tact, he says what he thinks, no matter how rude it is. His principle: impudence is the second happiness.

Details

Despite Dine's sometimes shitty behavior, many people, especially adults and the elderly, treat him with a kind of warmth. Yes, it's surprising, but in reality, no one really hates this asshole, perhaps because everyone already knows his story and is used to his stubbornness. This can be seen even when Dine was announced as the next victim, which was a tragedy for many people. Both for those little children with whom he sometimes reluctantly (with all his passion) played bug fights, and for good old Uncle Rest, who always reproached him for being idle. For his adoptive father, this was a real collapse and the end of the world. Dine really likes cats. And cats love him too. They say it's true, animals sense good people, and it's the same here. Fluffy ones often ask him for affection, which he gives them. That's why his clothes are always covered in cat fur. Dain loves to play the guitar, and although his fellow villagers rarely manage to persuade him, he still sometimes agrees to play his melodies for them while sitting by the fire. Another of Dinе's traits is his gambling, meaning he doesn't know how to lose at all, while not knowing how to play. That's the paradox. The village where Dinе lives is a large and friendly community, where everyone is like a big family. Here, all important holidays are celebrated together, the harvest is shared with the poor and the needy are given a helping hand. For him it was something strange and unusual, especially at first. Dinе, being an egoist, was used to thinking only about himself, and he was certainly used to the fact that no one thought about him. But still, after a while, he was able to more or less get back into the swing of things. Although, let's be honest, Dinе is Dinе. Often he hides and idles. It's too hard for him to work under the blazing sun and herd cattle. Dinе's defensive reaction is to deny his emotions, which he covers up with sarcastic phrases or indignation.

Story

Dinе is an orphan, he does not remember his father at all, and his mother died during a difficult birth. From that moment on, he became a ragamuffin who got his own food, lived on the street and even stole, although he was often caught. His personality was shitty from birth, because he loved to scream all day long for no reason. No woman was ready to babysit him. At first, he was nursed in an orphanage, but later he escaped from there and again began to wander around the kingdom at the age of 8. It is worth saying that since childhood he was distinguished by his intelligence and a very mature outlook on life, due to which it was problematic for him to find friends. Then this path of a loner was born. When Dain turned 9, he was able to settle in one of the villages. At first, he lived there like a mouse, stole food and did not let anyone know about his presence. However, his luck ran out, and one night, when he once again snuck into the barn to steal bread, he was caught. People, to be honest, were shocked by the appearance of this little rat, and his wild behavior too. No one knew what to do with him, after all, this was the first time with the villagers, but the boy's fate was decided by Uncle Rest, an old farmer and bachelor, who decided to take the boy under his wing. Dinе was not that happy about this, but he did not resist, at least not much. And so, he began to live with his new adoptive father, who became his mentor and educator. Of course, at first everything was really hard, Dinе stubbornly refused to make contact and talk at all, but he quickly realized that this hand was feeding him and not beating him. And so, as time passed, he turned 18. He's already a grown-up guy, right? Oh, but he's still the same asshole as before. Just as stubborn and proud, except that he's much more sociable and pure. Of course, he's still rude, but Rest's heavy hand guides him, or hits him on the back of the head, so that he finally behaves decently.

story2

Does Rest regret taking in this kid? Well, maybe sometimes. Especially remembering all the sins of this little bastard. How hard it was to get him to take a shower, make him work and stop pestering animals. But hey, looking at this stubborn spirit, he can't help but remember himself in his youth. Those were the days. Speaking of Dinе and Rest. Their relationship is really quite...strange. It seems that these two at least don't like each other, but in fact, behind closed doors, there's a certain amount of care and love. Despite all the bravado, Dinе trusts his adoptive father more than anyone else. Sometimes he comes to cry on his shoulder, but Rest silently cherishes every such moment, and without a doubt thinks "yes, this is my son". It is safe to say that the father manages to get the best out of his successor. Of course, he is not without sin, but Dine really managed to reveal the villagers from the best (and worst) sides. Often he stays to babysit the neighbors' children, helps the widows with the housework, works in the field, and so on, although he does it under duress. However, now he is already part of this large family and no one holds a grudge against him for long. Sometimes Rеst tries to quickly persuade his son to find himself a wife, but Dine has a hard time with this. He is not drawn to women, and they are even less so to him. It takes too much work to get into his heart. And so Dine leads his measured life, in fact he would never have believed that he would have...all this. All that he seemingly "never wanted". Home, family and food. In fact, he is really happy, he just hasn't fully realized it yet.
