this is SUCH an accurate summary of his character your takes are so well-thought out and articulated.
i love the part of the novel where HE has to be the one to say that they murdered Simon, even when piggy, who we've been lead to see is a voice of reason, doesn't.
'finally realizing how easy it is to fall victim to being in the moment and how easy it is to hurt someone, how hard it truly is to be good,'-so so good. major kudos :D
I love Ralph's development so much throughout Lord of the Flies
the way he starts out just like the rest of the boys- laughing at Piggy and revealing his nickname when Piggy asks not to be called Piggy, calling Simon queer and not using his leadership to his full extent and just being too lax with everyone and then the fire goes out and they miss their chance of rescue and the pressure of leadership and the stress of looking out for the group changes him, how he goes from ignoring and pushing Piggy away to valuing his advice and valuing his friendship, to making sure Simon is heard at the meeting, to trying to convince the other boys to get their act together and actually start working towards rescue instead of lazing around all day
how he matures from watching the ship disappear from the horizon knowing it was their immaturity and inability to focus on their goal of rescue and Ralph's own lenient leadership that failed them that day, vowing to never let it happen again and to always focus on the end goal, all trace of the old Ralph gone, yet he still gets distracted he still joins Jack's hunt and almost hurts Robert(? might be someone else) with the other boys, he still joins Jacks group at the feast and kills Simon along with the other boys.
Ralph gets so close to slipping into the same fate as the others yet he still perseveres and holds on to the responsibility he feels towards the other boys and making sure they get home, he's still guilty and remorseful over the ship pass away, his guilt and grief stop him from embracing his impulsiveness, his guilt and responsibility keeps him sane and focused on the welfare rather than the happiness of the group, keeps him aware and full of clarity even as he's literally dissociating and distressed over the events of the book, and then finally realizing how easy it is to fall victim to being in the moment and how easy it is to hurt someone, how hard it truly is to be good, how evil exists inside them all
despite how much he changes I appreciate how his goal has always been to be rescued and how he holds on to hope and represses his impulsivity in order to work towards rescue, Ralph's internal struggle to repress his own desires and impulses because of his self perceived responsibility is so so interesting to me and watching him mature thought out the book is both heartbreaking yet admirable

wait you're so real for this. he'd definitely not know the difference between emo and goth (initially at least)
his teachers just know him as 'that alternative kid' bc not even THEY'RE sure lmaoo 🥀🥀🥀
Roger would be one of those alternative kids who swear they're different and misunderstood than turn around and terrorize the younger kid's in the school. I also feel like he'd throw around the word poser so much for stupid little things knowing damn well he does the same thing. His ass is hypocritical asf, but no one ever calls him out because he'd probably find a way to sneak a venomous snake into their room at night or something. 💔💔

this is how mulberry boy ACTUALLY died btw 💔💔💔
YOUR ART IS SO CUTE IM ACTUALLY SO HONOURED YOU DREW THIS. FAINT FAINT FAINT❗❗❗
more random modern/gen z au lotf headcanons!!
piggy would def be that kid who goes allergy for allergy with you. you're allergic to dust? thats rough buddy. he's allergic to dust AND grass AND pollen. you can't have pizza because you're lactose intolerant? oh no. he ate peanuts when he was younger and almost DIED. so.
simon turns up for every lesson with all his stationery loose in his bag. there are like seventeen sheets in there from four different subjects. every time he runs through the corridors his bag obnoxiously rattles and every time he sits down for a lesson he spends 5 minutes rooting around looking for a pen.
simon is also the first to offer to lend a pen (quietly) and all the class heaves a sigh in dread because the next ten minutes will be him pulling random shit out of his bag. one time he pulled a whole box of chocolates but had NO pencil. it's a dark day in england when any of the choir boys have to rely on simon for stationery
every time the choir boys are at a school-mandated event they have to sing for (like SPORTS day of all things. their headteacher hates them) jack turns to simon with a heavy sigh and says 'you know. nobody would hate you if you fainted right now'. the others also use him as their escape plan; maurice tries jumpscaring simon in an attempt to get him to pass out, meanwhile roger behind him is just whispering under his breath 'faint faint faint faint' like a subliminal. NONE of them know how fainting works 💔💔💔
littlun year 7s with their MASSIVE backpacks with EVERY book from EVERY subject at ALL times running around in hallways and knocking piggy over. jack finds this the funniest thing in the world and says piggy is 'one of them'.
simon does just end up passing out at the events he's really freaked out for and they all still poke fun at him for it. it's all part of jack merridew's foolproof plan anyways (ie. give the kid a solo in the song you really don't want to perform, and have no back-up plan. boom! now you don't have to sing imagine dragons in front of the whole school!)
there's graffiti all over any of the desks that the boys work at; jack obnoxiously writes his initials in calligraphy to the point where there's more desks with his initials than without. ralph uses his ruler to saw at the edges of the desk absent-mindedly like he's 9 years old. piggy draws smiley faces in pencil so he can smudge them away when a teacher comes over. simon doodles in pen at the very corners of the desk so his arms are always ink-stained
every lesson, sam and eric argue over who can draw better and make a point of drawing cartoon versions of themselves on each other's sheets. this means they get in trouble every other lesson. (this is, however, more to do with the fact they end up squabbling and trying to scribble out the other's bad caricature, eventually tearing their worksheets and disrupting everyone else. every teacher is sick of their shit)

even more random lotf gen z au/modern au hcs !!!! [lowk jack centric]
jack merridew's the type of guy to laugh at ralph getting jumpscared by a spider and then swivel around and immediately get jumpscared by the same spider
the boys all think the school held dances/discos are the stupidest things on earth. maurice requests the same song like ten times in the row from the underpaid DJ. piggy awkwardly stands in the corner and pretends he isn't there. jack's entire wardrobe is full of the most hideous (probably designer) formal wear ever so this is the first time he's MEANT to blend in but everyone rolls up in casual clothes anyway. the choir spends a good five minutes laughing at him when he isn't looking and then staring at him like this 😐😐😐 when he is
simon and roger race each other around the school hall and accidentally cause like ten people in their year to spill water on each other. when everyone else joins in everything disintegrates and the dance gets shut down early because like ten kids are rolling around on the floor in pain 💔💔💔
every time piggy opens his mouth to speak at a whole school council meeting jack says 'on RALPH'S soul this is fire' regardless of what the suggestion is. ralph fucking hates it but can't lunge at him from across the room bc he's running said meeting. sigh this is the turmoil that comes with being employed
jack with all his expensive stationery and embossed notebooks with the rest of the choir boys next to him- designated freeloaders-ready to scribble ALL over his paper 💔
speaking of which jack DEFINITELY has one of those engraved fountain pens with his name on it. he gets one basically every year as a birthday gift from his parents and makes it a point to show it off
the boys are the biggest reason for high littlun (year 7) mortality rates. glow sticks are in fact officially banned from school events because one of the year 7s ate one after being dared to by all of the choir boys in a circle chanting go! go! go!
jack and ralph are mean girls but in different ways. ralph just smiles awkwardly at people he doesn't fw and side-eyes his friends behind him in a lmao-get-a-load-of-this-guy way. jack just straight up says 'no one asked' and gets away with it (he has made several lifelong enemies 🥀🥀🥀)

i'd like to take a moment and warn you about the sheer ramble this is going to be lmfaoo i am a tier 1 waffler
i understand the point you're making here (logically siding with jack would prevent him from being killed, hence being the wisest choice to make) and that would be an interesting route to look into, but i don't think ralph refusing would necessarily be due to his pride. we know he DOES have a sort of pride-ego battle going on with jack and the battle to being chief (bc they're kids), but that is also due to the very strict moral clash between the two of them
we see from the beginning of the novel that ralph's main aim on this island is to maintain the civilisation and 'order of society' that he grew up in (for better or for worse.) he does this primarily through seeking rescue from the island; it's his pitch as leader, and the one thing he sticks through to the end. even when the notion of a beast on the island becomes more and more real to him, he still maintains that there IS hope for survival, if they just build a fire (him and his fire 🥀🥀🥀)
he's seen to be the boy that can balance between his animalistic urges and his 'civility', for lack of a better word. he is shown to want to join the hunt; both the mock-one with robert, and the real thing with simon. but the difference between him and the other boys is that he recognises what he is doing IS wrong. he's interestingly the one that brings up the fact of aimon's murder first- 'That was murder'.
to join jack's tribe would not only negate any of his moral crises that shape him as a character, but would also be a complete contradiction of the morals and values that both allowed him to be the chief. it may also serve to take away a key motivation of his as a character. golding does ask the question alongside if evil is innate (ugh 🥀)- how much of civilisation is ingrained?
ralph is continually shown to hope for rescue and return to england. whether that's through his dreams of home, or through his long ruminations about what he would do if he had scissors to cut his hair, etc. (symbols of society.) even following simon's death, he wants to call a meeting to argue that they need 'just an ordinary fire'- again, reiterating this idea of a smoke signal, to get home.
tldr though it can be argued he IS prideful, (perhaps initially, though this seems to be a reflection of the typical british boy🥀🥀🥀), him not choosing to join jack's tribe at any point is a reflection of his own motivations as a character, not necessarily just his flaws? idk
sorry if any of this was unclear; feel free to correct me if i've hyperfixated on specific wording or misread anything :DD
ralph has the potential to be clever and intelligent but he can not swallow his pride for the love of himself and that’s the most frustrating and relatable thing about him
maybe maybe maybe i’m just remembering wrong but does he even consider joining jacks tribe at the end . He might’ve assumed it wasn’t even an offer since yknow everyone lost their marbles and whatnot but like cmon CMON man
i need to reread to confirm this and whatnot but jeezzz poor boy does not think with his mind or his heart it seems

Following the island- Ralph
Post-island Ralph enters a sort of dissociative state.
Days blend into each other. Every night is spent staring at a ceiling that yields no response to what he's discovered, and when he first comes home to his bedroom- to all his books in his bookshelf- he turns Coral Island face-down, where it's currently moulting in its dust jacket. He hasn't been to school in so long that the picturesque yellow-painted classrooms he grew up in have faded back into the grey expanse of his mind. His hands shake. He still can't look his father in the eye.
He writes feverishly in the hours when the fog fades; a man possessed. Books of scrambled, scrawled thoughts that drip off the page from his head to his desk, and in the morning the guilt washes over his body and he rips it all up, to begin the cycle anew.
His first meal at home is pig. He takes all of two bites before excusing himself from the dinner table.
At night, he stands by the sink and washes his mouth out until his front teeth bleed, and the water isn't clear but rust-brown, and his father's bedroom light remains on through the night as he sobs and heaves over white porcelain. They don't talk about it. What would there be to talk about; him, a naval officer, a man; with a son who is a coward? A little boy playing games?
When Ralph first goes back to school, he goes to a small school; a day-school, one his father never would have sent him to, before. It doesn't matter. He's out of there in less than a week. All it takes is one snide remark from a boy he's never met, pointing at a poor chubby kid who's sitting by himself at lunch, calling him Fatty, and Ralph blinks, and-
He never even knew Piggy's real name.
Never bothered to ask.
His hands shake. He can't breathe. His fists clench by his side as his mouth refuses to respond in speech, and he's dying and he's going to die here-
A nervous attack, is what the doctor calls it. Prescribes a long break by the countryside, maybe some physical exercise for him to work back up to his 'usual self'. Didn't want to go to school, did you? the man smiles at him, eye wrinkles crinkling, when Ralph's father has left the room for a moment. Here, I'll write you a note for the week. But-after this, no more games, you hear? Your father's got a lot on his plate, young man.
Games, a small part of Ralph's head repeats back to him, high and giddy. Fun and games. It's all fun and- silly games. The doctor's truth cuts like a knife. Ralph fought and he ran and he yelled and- I'm not going to play any longer- and he lost the game.
Ralph's hands sometimes shake so hard he drops the pencil he's holding. His hair is shorn short, and yet he still reaches up to swipe it off his eyebrows. The wound across his chest has healed, and it prickles every time he thinks of what happened. Long silences makes him uneasy, have him glancing over his shoulder. Predictably, a week by the countryside does nothing to change this. He doesn't know what he was expecting.
Something has changed, after all; and though he doesn't tell his father, all he can see from the corner of his eyes is Piggy; visualise the way his blood ran into the earth. When he closes his eyes the red leaches into his vision, and when he grits his teeth he can hear the snap of his friend's bones. Back on that island, when everything went wrong, all he used to remember was the way Simon had smiled on their first day; and how they had torn into him when he had smiled in the moonlight, that night.
The fog doesn't fade, but the nightmares begin. Boys he thought were his friends smile so that their teeth are bared, and a snake-thing winds in the trees above him, hissing and snarling at his wide-eyed stare. The wind is cold, and the ocean is colder. It's hell, he thinks, of a sort. Trying to survive on that island was hell.
Now, in his return to society, he's traded one hell for another.

oh HELL yes i love your art sm !!!🤑🤑🤑
random lotf modern/gen z au hcs
jack unironically speaks in brainrot. he's snivelling after getting emotional in an argument telling himself to 'lock in' out loud
when there's a bug in the classroom everyone either looks to simon or roger to get rid of it. but when this happens during choir practice the boys ALWAYS go to simon because roger cups the insect in his palms and chases the boys with it. he WILL drop it on you if you've pissed him off enough today (legend has it that's how jack sang his first c sharp)
simon wears the most HIDEOUS fits its insane. a stressed english teacher saw his 'sonc the hodge' t-shirt after a long day and proceeded to have a nervous breakdown
some underpaid teacher made roger a prefect and he tortures the year 7s by making them hit the griddy if they look at him wrong
piggy has an alt instagram account impersonating a grandma which he uses to stalk his opps
the school had to block the students from searching basically anything but the school site and wikipedia because the choir boys kept playing bootleg fnaf and crashing the computers
every time piggy talks to someone from his year on instagram their first conversation is always 'omg you used to be sooooooo irritating in year 7....like seriously NO ONE liked you...' and every time he has to take a deep breath and try not to blow them up with his mind
bootleg fnaf was actually the first thing to be banned by the school because jack kept telling the year 7s that pissed him off that freddy fazbear was real and that he would appear in their dorms if they didnt listen to him and they ALL fucking believed him. jack wasn't even trying particularly hard to lie he was just sick of them trying to jumpscare him
jack and roger cannot hang out with piggy simon and ralph in public and this is ONLY because the school photographer finds them every time. they are the happy diverse friendship group on the latest three issues and counting of the school brochure

Was drawing Ralph and decided, yeah, he seems like a moth guy. Simons there too. I think they would both like moths.
Tumblr media
( I don’t remember half of the actual descriptions of the characters… erm, so this half what was described in the book and half what I see other people do… I also accidentally made the moth absolutely massive. whoops. )
( Lord of The Flies, how I love you. )
