you know what’s a really good trope? “the power of friendship” but they’re all VILLAINS. just a bunch of sexy, unhinged, & morally bankrupt characters who would do anything for each other. absolutely unparalleled

Huh, I just realized why I like the Fast and Furious franchise so much
Kinda like It’s Always Sunny, but better
I like how they threw “sexy” in there.
Makes me think they’re talking about Always Sunny
Nothing sexier than cultivating mass.
Holy poops, that’s actually a good des.
Especially the sexy part.
It’s an integral load(:))-bearing essential element!!
Villains are usually better written, more developed characters while the good guys are just good for sake of being good.
Also, villains are often coded as minorities, whereas the heroes are basically the mainstream.
I remember an animated show where the reason why the villain was evil and how they were defeated was because they were aromantic
I keep identifying the the villains, but eventually, I realized that the writers of mainstream media are heavily invested in the status quo.
Heros: “We did it, we finally killed the evil bad guy”
The evil bad guy’s 12 best friends:
Organisation 13 if they care for each other
Season 3 of Legend of Korra does this pretty well, though the villains are also united by an ideology that drives them to act.
Jessie and James and Meowth
kinda reminds me of iasip
I thought of Lost. They’re not all villains, but they’re all kind of shitty.
Seinfeld.
You’re describing Seinfeld.
Stupid, sexy Jerry.
Anybody read Worm by John McCrae / Wildbow? It’s this and it’s really really good https://parahumans.wordpress.com/
Isn’t that just DOOM patrol?
Wait, so what is going on over in the USA, but sexy??
I guess that would be significantly more palatable … still murder tho.
But if I could choose my dictator I would like a big mommy dommy goth, pls!
(I would be a boot-locker & it would be illegal to kink-shame me!)This reminds me of the Phantom Troupe.
Hazbin Hotel kinda?
