This has to be the most time-consuming, impractical uniform I have ever seen. What even is this. He's wrapping it around his body like duct tape. Why? What is the purpose? What is the reason? What

HI BESTIES im back! have been thinking a lot about duke grane and his motivations which don't make sense at face value. hence i have consolidated a list of possible reasons why he might have decided to join frame despite being such a prodigy in the legitimate awakener world and therefore destined for power and influence.
More meritocratic, less nepotistic. the WAA is heavily influenced by real-world power structures; for example, the top 10 in the WAA are from highly influential families and groups and it's explicitly said that the rankings in the WAA parallel the real world. Duke is an ambitious and motivated person, and perhaps actually having to work for stuff in frame is something he thinks is worthy of his effort
More freedom to choose what you want and to experiment. His family wasn't happy with him for choosing to learn the speed force control. of course it might dilute his main power, but also i imagine there's an element of family pride there; they don't want the scion of their family diverging from his inheritance. conversely, frame doesn't have that element of force-control 'honour' because the apprentices come in later, already having some kind of their own power, and refine it under their masters
Continued guidance. The WAA throws you out into the real world when you graduate (I assume at 18 because it's structured somewhat like a high school) while the Frame apprentices that we know of are comparatively old (like muse and roist are? mid-20s?)
No unrealistic expectations (fundamental). He became a waa top 10 at a very young age i assume because they call him a prodigy. And I imagine that with every fight he won, he felt even more pressure to win the next one. there wasn't any space to make mistakes and grow
Less pressure to fight and climb the rankings. Families are very intense ab this because of politics. I imagine Frame is less pushy wrt world rankings. And WAA rankings are rubbish
Got tired of not being able to fight anyone. The top 10 don't fight each other. they don't fight the other people either and when they are challenged they have to win. it's very stagnant
Power. self-explanatory.

Do we think these two sit together because they’re friends or because they don’t have friends?

in anticipation for the next chapter I have devised some pointers for duke in his next fight with jiwoo (very likely) because he really needs to fight smarter (yes he may be powerful but he needs better strategy!! hopefully schnauder can help him with that)
go for the legs straight away with your long-range red vibes. DON'T short range him (I don't care about your pride sir. you just want to win this.) jiwoo's only attack is literally to run really fast and punch you with electricity. if he can't run very fast he can't max speed you, and his long range attacks are very untried which gives you the advantage.
mess up the floor real bad. what glant did! blast the floor like mad so he can't run. the problem is that glant didn't have long range attacks as effective as yours.
keep walking so he can't max speed u. literally KEEP MOVING because the faster he goes, the more inertia he has, and the slower he turns, so his attacks won't land full on if you keep moving away from his predicted path.
if he does manage to run around and start punching you from all directions just let out a fat burst of energy (you're supposed to be the most powerful rookie I'm sure you can do this) to create space and then continue moving. if you manage to land a solid hit then good for you but even a glancing blow will throw him off and create space.
when the legs are gone/unusable THEN you can start using short range attacks if you really want (I wouldn't advise it but whatever) or you can just fight his unpracticed electricity with the red energy you have refined over years of practice. it'll be very hard for you to lose once jiwoo can't do his electricity max speed punch which he needs his legs for
so obviously the author isn't going to do this but I'm just saying it IS possible for jiwoo to be beaten and duke really should stand a chance if he fights in a smarter way

You didn’t think much of Duke’s upcoming trip to Korea.
And from his attitude, you assumed he didn’t either.
Too easy smile paired with bright red eyes which gleamed under the light. Everything about him spoke the ease of someone waiting for a ride in the amusement park, not someone about to tread into uncharted territory.
“Let’s go on a date when I return,” Duke wraps a strand of your hair around his finger, turning it into a playful curl, “I have tickets to this play downtown. You'll like it."
"I didn't know you like watching plays." You feigned interest to appease him. "What it's about?"
"Guess~" He chimed playfully. "If you got it right, I'll give you a reward."
The idea was simply ludicrous. It was one thing if he was into plays before, this was another ordeal altogether. You didn't have the patience to play his little games, not at this moment anyway. So you deflected him with a pout and put on your best puppy dog eyes, "Ugh, how do you expect me to get it out of the blue? It's impossible."
It was thankfully a good move to make because your little protest had sparked a new interest in his eyes. That alone gave you a better leg up than expected. "How about this...? You can get ten guesses of what it's about, and if you get five guesses, I'll tell you what the title is," then with a mischievous grin, he added, "for each correct guess, I'll give you a kiss."
“Fine,” it didn’t stop your pouting but at least the game wasn’t rigged entirely in his favor, though you couldn’t help but think that this was an elaborate scheme for him to kiss you, “Is it drama?”
Duke laughed softly, “All plays are drama, that doesn’t count.”
You blew a raspberry at him, “Is it in modern setting?”
After brief contemplation, he nodded, “Yes, you can say that.”
The small victory had you made a little cheer. Before you could further mull over what his answer meant, however, Duke leaned over to you and pressed his lips on your forehead.
“That was one,” in front of your surprised blinking, he only chuckled, “I never said where I would kiss.”
“Cheeky,” you deadpanned at him before returning your previous task of guesswork. There was only so much you knew about plays. Having to narrow it down was not easy when Duke never gave you a hint to begin with. “Is it a musical?”
“Hmm,” Duke pretended to think it over this time, “yes.”
“Getting warmer!” You clapped in excitement. “Is it tragic?”
In response, he reached under your chin and lifted your face to meet his eyes. The only answer you got from him was two light pecks, one on each cheeks. “You’re on a roll,” he winked, “just two more.”
You pressed your lips together. A little giddy because of his affection, but more so because you managed to get more right than expected. Though, if you thought about it harder, Duke might have rigged it in your favour instead. That line of thinking was immediately shut down, however.
“Does it have romance?”
“Most plays have romance,” he tilted his head to the side, his smile amused, “doesn’t count.”
Slightly deflated by the sudden end to your streak of victory, you pouted again, “Does it set in a school?"
"So close," this time, Duke rewarded you with a kiss on your nose, "just one more guess."
At this end of the line, you couldn't help but want to make the final guess count. You ran your thoughts through the past guess you made, piecing the clues together to see whether it was something you already knew. "Hmm... wait, you think I will like it," you recalled suddenly, "is it Heathers?"
"And you got it right all by yourself too," he leaned over and kissed you sweetly on the lips, the softness of his actions left you tingling with affection, "I think you deserve the grand prize for that alone."
"Wait... you got us tickets to Heathers?" Immediately, your jubilance overloaded your other senses. You jumped up enthusiastically before putting your hand on his shoulder and pulling him back to you. "Duke!"
Your joy was contagious. Soon, even Duke joined in with your laughter while you peppered his face with kisses. The two of you finally calmed down with a final, lasting one on the lips. You could feel him smiling against yours, his adoration apparent.
"Mhm, I was doing this as a treat for your recent academic achievement," he mused, "but It seems like I'm the one who's getting rewarded instead."
You kissed him again, on the chin this time, "I'll save the rest for when you returned."
That alone had his eyes darkened with unspoken promise. "Can't wait." And from the way your chest swelled with affection, you couldn't wait either.

I love how I put everyone who has lost to Jiwoo in a fight in the ‘Would lose a fistfight’ category! I’m also 100% willing to update this as Jiwoo defeats more people.
