  1. Tyblat and Benvolio are pretty much the same the difference, other than the obvious, is that Benvolio gives advice and wisdom, while Tyblat gives out taunts. Mercutio on the other hand was like Tyblat's evil minion...well metaphorically, not literally, well, you could be literal if you wanted to.

  2. I think that Tybalt and Mercutio were in a word; Jerks. They were really mean to anyone who didn't agree with him. It was mostly Tybalt, but Mercutio seemed to kind of like his wing-man. I think that Benvolio on the other hand was really nice. He talked Romeo through some hard times. He made Romeo make to leap to go to that dance where he met Juliet. Without that leap, he would have been miserable forever.

  3. Benvolio is very calm and collected. He is wise, and tried to keep the peace during the fight in the market. He is the one who got Romeo to go to the dance, and thus made him forget his depression. Tybalt is violent, rash, and has serious anger issues. I don't like the fact that he was going to kill Benvolio just because he was talking of peace while holding his sword so he could defend himself if the need arose. Mercutio is Romeo's other friend, and is not quite as calm as Benvolio. He likes to start petty fights with Capulet's servants, and also seems to like calling Romeo names.

  4. I think that Mercutio was insanely evil and Tybalt was like his little minion even though they were probably just looking out for Juliet's best interest while Benvolio was like Romeo's wing man and looked out for his best interest.

  5. I think Benvolio is a good person, and like Romeo's best friend. Tybalt is very hateful and evil. As for Mercutio, I think he is like the annoying friend of Romeo's.
