Masamune Date | Sengoku Basara

[vengaboy]

I murdered my mother's child just to hurt her.

He wasn't the first victim of my anger towards someone else. And he wasn't the last.

[beautiful_carnivore]

And how have you made penance for that unforgivable act?

Or have you realized that nothing you do can atone for it and that you are bound for Hell either way, so you might as well stack the bodies higher?

[vengaboy]

[ He knew the instant he felt the words bubbling up like bile that some wise-ass was going to try to turn it on him like this. He just didn't think it would be so soon.

His voice is low, tone flat. Let's get this over with, it says without those words. ]

There is no atoning for it, you're right about that. All I can do is move forward, avoid making those same mistakes, and put everything I've got into securing a better future for those around me.

[discountdeity]

[ Whoa. That's not what he ever expected to hear from Masamune. Ramie can't help but stare at him in disbelief. ]

...It appears we both have blood on our hands, even though my brother is still alive.

[ Nevertheless, with the help of his idiotic nieces and their similarly stupid friends. "The F in Family Stands for Fuck!" Gah! Talk about such bullshit. ]

[yakisugiru]

You gonna share the details with the class, or what?

[bittermalice]

[ the response this time doesn't come in the form of taunting or illusions. there's a very real, very malicious aura threatening to surge around masamune. dark shadows, malicious purple tendrils threaten to consume him; all are bitingly cold, far more frigid than your average winter night.

it's zoroark's specialty: his bitter malice. his condensed hatred for all living things now turned upon masamune if he's not quick enough to get out of the way from them or the piercing, sickly yellow eyes of the zoroark behind them. ]

Angel Dust | Hazbin Hotel | m/m for shipping

[aschmoozerandadummy]

Killed my dad. All of Hell knows about it at this point, so why hide it?

[yakisugiru]

[ Well since everyone is over sharing, and he doesn't get why the chap is all emo about it- ]

Hell, I sure wish I had.

[holdshisown]

Why? [A simple question devoid of judgement. He is more than well aware how difficult fathers can be. He may not have killed his own but he's not entirely sad that he is gone either.]

[itolerateyou]

Eh, who hasn't wanted to kill their dad at some point? Yours was probably a jackass that just pushed you too far.

Katsuki Bakugo | My Hero Academia

[nitrotempered]

When I was a kid, I fell off a log while climbing it with friends. To be honest, I was really scared when I fell, but once on the ground in the water - I heard everyone around me saying I could obviously handle it.

So I sucked it up, even though I was scared shitless at the time I fell... Then in came my other friend, walking over with his stupid hand out, asking me if I was okay.

Me, of all people - if I was okay.

'nd in that moment, looking up at him. Even as a damn snot-nosed kid, I realized what a Hero actually is, and that I'd never amount to what he could be as one.

'Cause of that, I treated him like shit for the next 10 or so years.

[fallendragon]

[Arrakis's glowing eyes sharply flickered with an agitated spark. He had been his brothers' punching bag for years so they could feel better about themselves so it was difficult to sympathize with Bakugo. Still, he understood the fear of not amounting to anything even more and the sharp spark in his eyes softened slightly as he leaned back with a reluctant sigh.]

I'm not saying that how you treated your friend wasn't shitty but I would be a hypocrite if I judged you too harshly for it, and I get it. I was a tyrant to everyone when I discovered my musical talent. I believed I would be abandoned again if I wasn't the best so I lorded my talent over everyone and trampled anyone with even the slightest bit of talent. Not to mention all the shady jobs I did for my family just so they would accept me.

[He really didn't have a right to judge. Bakugo sounded genuinely remorseful. Unlike him. There was a stubborn hint of guilt in his carefree tone, he hated that part of himself, but he would also do it again in heartbeat if it let him keep even a sliver of his family's love, no matter how twisted it was.]

...did you at least apologize to your friend?

vil schoenheit | twisted wonderland

[maquilleur]

I saw what I'll look like when I get older.

And I don't know if I can accept that I will completely lose almost everything I work so hard for now. Although I'm not about to quit now, to be scared of growing old and living a long life is shameful, isn't it?

[IDK I think he makes a cute old man. What do I know.]

[powerhittou]

Ohhh nooo, if only there was anything more to life than sitting around looking pretty.

The General / Mr. Villain's Day Off

[mrvillain]

I don't want to kill off humanity. [Yes! This is a shame! This is an awful, horrible thing for him!] I do want to live up to the role I worked so hard for.

I've gotten comfortable with life on Earth, even if I miss the mother planet, and have come to see certain Earthlings as part of my community. It shames me because I feel like I'm betraying my people and my superiors. I constantly feel guilty for being disloyal, but then I also feel guilty when I think of some Earthlings never having the chance to reach their potential because the shareholders found them inconvenient.

[blakjan]

That's some dilemma you have there.

V | Cyberpunk 2077

[mikoshi]

Prolonged my mother's suffering 'cause I couldn't afford her treatments.

Don't even care about the money anymore — a cool million in the bank and still killin' these corpo fucks.

For free.

“Marie” | OC | OTA

[onewithwater]

I used to be cruel. Like harassing people, tearing clothes, chasing people…

I hate that, but… I’ve changed…

Ranma Saotome | Ranma ½ | OTA

[treebornekettlegirl]

[Scratching her chin as she mulls it over.]

Kicking someone into a curse spring's probably bad, but...

[Nah, that's something most people know already, doesn't count. Also Ryoga's the one who got in the way, so...]

Guess it'd be the time I accidentally ruined a friend's okonomiyaki sauce she spent a decade fermenting. I was a dumb kid then, and I loved Ucchan's cook a whole ton. So when I found this jar of super yummy sauce, I thought a little taste wouldn't hurt...

[Sweat drop as she rubs the back of her neck.]

Ucchan's jar fell, and spilt all over the place. I panicked, cleaned up the mess and tried to remake it from scratch. Didn't turn out so great after ten years...

Logan | Fable 3 | OTA

[ridofthethrone]

I lose control of myself in the dark. All sense of reason, strength or composure vanishes, and I become little more than a raving, panicked animal.

[All the more shameful because it's not something left in the past.]

Grier "Rook" Thorne | Dragon Age: The Veilguard | OTA

[costofmagic]

I was going to let the Veil fall. Fully intended to until we actually got there to stop it.

Shinobu Jacobs | No More Heroes

[rippedoff]

I once killed three of my classmates, back when I was in high school, just for merely overhearing someone else out me as an assassin.

One of the many reasons I'm a freelancer now.

[canhandleit]

Okay, ignoring all the murder for the moment: what the hell's an assassin doing in high school? You need to get into Kill Bill College to get the good jobs?

Bud Askins | Fallout

[its_time]

People died because of a decision I made. American soldiers.

It’s not really a secret. It is something I feel badly about. I wish I could have done things differently, but I really didn’t have a choice.

The Deep | The Boys

[sweetdives]

My gills.

[What, did you expect him to admit shame over something else?]
