Back to Mercutio’s purpose. His obstructive and perverse behavior lays the foreground of romances’ downfall. It’s kind of funny, in a messed up way, that Mercutio dies for a purpose he is unaware of. He doesn’t really like Romeo, in my opinion. His perverse attitude towards Romeo could be seen as contempt which he holds for him. Romeo just gets in the way of things. Mercutio dies because Romeo stands in between him and Tybalt, and Mercutio does not see Tybalts rapier coming at him. He curses both houses with his “a plague ‘o both your houses” bit. And in the end of it all both houses are screwed. They lose their kids. Anyway…enough of this. I need to memorize my stuff, yo.
