Odin's beard. The villains in this universe are so disorganized. It's no wonder they never take over anything.

It's like there's no hierarchy at all. There's sort of a king of hell, maybe, but then none of the foot soldiers really seem to be in active contact with him. It's hard to tell if anyone has any real power.

I mean, my evil days are behind me, but what I wouldn't give for a Doctor Doom to shake things up once in a while. Your world doesn't even seem to have any masked, megalomaniacal kings. In fact, no leaders in masks of any kind! What good is saving people if you're not saving them from anyone good?

What sort of world is this?

	Oh we had those. Dead, Dead, Locked in a cage in hell. We're doing pretty damn well. Also given people are being beaten and attacked and all, maybe a little tiny bit of thought before you rant about villians? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	I was thinking about it. That's why I posted. I was thinking about what a lousy job they're doing of accomplishing anything. What do these evil folks want? Who are they attacking? What are their demands? To what extent do they want to kill Spider-Man? It's ridiculous how little pride they take in their work. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Have you paid attention? I have. The whoever this is didn't go for the kill, he went for the hurt. Which means it was on purpose and proving a point, find the connection between the victims and you have your reason.

Or sometimes people just villian it up for kicks. Every heard of Moriarty. He legit had no motive beyond isn't murder funny and wanting to screw over his floofy haired nemisis.

As to this world, we get our share of meglomaniacs. Call it a downswing.

Well, that's such a dull motivation. Good villains always have a grand design. A thing you have to stop them from doing. A real chance that they might achieve it, even!

Every good villain is the hero of his own story, you know? But none of these people are trying to take over the world for complex philosophical reasons. They're just doing terrible things for ambiguous personal reasons. Which is fine, it's their prerogative, I guess. But it's just not as interesting.

	Very sure of yourself aren't you. The big showy ones tend to have that fatal flaw. Its the quieter ones you need to watch out for. You're in a different world now, evil here, its deep in. But sure, continue with the most insensitive rant in quite some time. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Being a god tends to have that effect. Oh, we're all characters in comic books. Who's to say I can't keep an eye on the narrative? (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Why would megalomaniacal kings wear masks? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Regardless of what he tells you, I suspect the real reason is "dramatic effect." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	salad_trident 2015-01-16 11:03 pm UTC (link)
	That just seems silly. None of the villains in my world wore masks. And they were perfectly good villians. An, okay, so Regina did pretend to be Ursula. But, she did keep her own face. I just had never met either of them before. And, Rumplestiltskin was all gold and scaly. But, that wasn't a mask. That was just him. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Gold and scaly. That is a rather interesting look. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Maybe. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	I'm somewhat confused about that too! They just go around shooting people and throwing girls through walls? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	lowkey 2015-01-16 11:35 pm UTC (link)
	Exactly! This! I don't know why everyone thinks there's something "insensitive" about pointing out a flaw in the organizational system. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Well, we just have to find that. And it won't be too hard, I'm thinking. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	frostandsnow 2015-01-17 12:01 am UTC (link)
	And if you were one of the ones shot, you or one of your friends would you be so dismissive ghosty. You just got here, right? And you're friends with two people who have a kill switch just as undelicate as a madman with a gun. So offer to help or stay the fuck out of it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	awkwardfall 2015-01-17 12:04 am UTC (link)
	I'm not being dismissive! Am I? I'm sorry if I am. Oh god. I have offered to help! I went patrolling with Buffy. I was going to make soup for one of the girls. Is there anything else I can do? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	frostandsnow 2015-01-17 12:11 am UTC (link)
	It came off that way a little bit. But if you've offered to help then I apologise for assuming you weren't. But seriously this post is ridiculously unhelpful (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	lowkey 2015-01-17 12:18 am UTC (link)
	I mean, I'll help. I just wish it wasn't this bull shit guerilla warfare business. I'm much better at manipulating crazy warlords into doing what I want. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	awkwardfall 2015-01-17 12:19 am UTC (link)
	Where do I bring the soup? Should I post? Maybe I'll post. I just don't understand what's going on. I think that's the problem some of us are having. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	frostandsnow 2015-01-17 12:23 am UTC (link)
	Have you asked? Enquired at all as to what's going on? Honestly I know like, no one involved that well but there's a guy, stronger than a human, shooting or beating up people with seemingly no connection. But there has to be. So its figuring that out, stopping him and deciding what to do at that point. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	awkwardfall 2015-01-17 12:37 am UTC (link)
	I asked my friends. I'm just still not sure what's going on. Whatever his goal is, I hope he doesn't reach it. I want him stopped. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Ruby lostfaith 2015-01-17 02:26 am UTC (link)
	And stopping the people who want to slowly torture whoever it is to death. Because you know I can't let that happen, right? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Faith frostandsnow 2015-01-17 03:47 am UTC (link)
	It can be a hard taught lesson. But I agree. There need to be rules for this kind of stuff, or we'll just have chaos. Do you have a like, instinctive urge to hate them? I never quite figured out how you guys work? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Ruby lostfaith 2015-01-17 03:52 am UTC (link)
	Nah. One of my best friends is a vamp. Kind of a special sitch, most vamps where we come from are straight up evil, but I get it's not like that here. I'm cool with them as long as they ain't killing people. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Faith frostandsnow 2015-01-17 03:49 pm UTC (link)
	The ones here, like the natives. Straight up evil. Go go gadget Slayer. But the displaced. Its hit and miss, some of them fake good guy pretty well, some of them might actually be. But y'know. I'm a demon so I don't judge them on first meeting. They got the chance to prove themselves same as I did (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
