THE VILLAIN MEME

WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS?
1. For the good of humanity. The ends justify the means - you only have their greater interests at heart, and you aren't afraid to get your hands dirty.
2. For someone I care about. There is nothing you won't do for your loved ones, and you won't let anyone stop you from proving it.
3. For myself. Screw everyone else. Your first priority is yourself, and if anyone doesn't like it, who cares? They're expendable.
4. For the reward. Some things are worth making a few enemies. Or a hundred.
5. For revenge. Watch out, world - you've got an origin story and a score to settle.
6. For the lulz. Hey, everybody's got a talent. Being the bad guy is pretty liberating, after all.
7. For the hell of it. No matter your motivations, everyone sees you as the villain. Might as well lean into it a little bit.

This is a meme for the bad guys.

( ~~For the daddy issues~~ )

[Doing it for the lulz, or because, y'know, it's his function in the grand scheme of things. Could help others be the villain or maybe get bound to a master who appreciates his skillset.]

[1-ish, 3, 4, 5... 7. shrug emoji]

[Mostly 3, but kind of 1. Sometimes. OTA for gen and M/F for any (attempted) shipping.

~~Voicetesting. Please be gentle.~~]

[ Expect taunting, she loves getting under the skin. 3-7 work, 1,2 imply she cares about anyone else, she doesn't. ]

((For the lulz obviously.))

(For revenge. Against the Greeks or against the Olympians, your pick)

[ 3, 5, 6, or 7 ]

[Given that they are both goblins (and redheads), it's amazing that they've never encountered each other before. But then, Norman Osborn had his focus fixed mostly on a certain wisecracking arachnid for far too long until recently. Time to fix that.

Just because the X-Men aren't his archenemies, doesn't mean that he shouldn't take steps to deal with them in his own good time and have the perfect ally to aide him in that task...]

Do forgiven me for arriving unexpectedly your window, Ms. Pryor. The Green Goblin prides himself on manners around beautiful women. But you are a very hard woman to locate and I so wanted to met with you, that I just had to drop by unannounced.

[She is more than beautiful. She makes Parker's super-model wife look ordinary. And she is divorced too. Perhaps if he plays his cards right...]

I like to help you kill every last mutant that's been in a group with a X at the beginning.

[[Gosh dang I applaud you for playing Harry! Dude doesn't get enough love. I have this transducer/technomage to toss his way orrr a really gay vampire. Did you have a plot in mind?]]

(( ooc: 3 (99% of the time), 4 and 5. Also because he's a salty jerk who doesn't know when to quit! ))

[[ OOC: I've always wanted to play villain Hawks, but be warned! He would be carrying heavy spoilers for the manga since it'll be backstory heavy on his part! He'd be doing it for the good of humanity... and hell, for revenge too because hero turned villain always has some beef with hero society. ]]

((I don't get to bring him out much these days. As for prompt 3,4 and 5, fits him well. I didn't have a specific prompt in mind. That said there are some weird things in Uncharted like zombies, yetis and things which do appear "magic". There's probably some way to combine our characters. How about some ancient relic? Or idk secrets about magitech robots. Or just an old fashioned heist. Let me know if you have any ideas.))

[ooc: for the lulz because a world in chaos and all life within suffering in misery is the best source of entertainment. be sure to read through the information in its journal before trying to tangle with this thing. some ooc discussion or PMing beforehand is preferred.]

[ because every hero is a villain to someone— nah i'm here for a Mad King AU okay lol 😎 s8 but the north backed him into taking the throne? subverted dany and now he's the one making grand speeches and flying around on a dragon? or he just lost it after he died and came back? or maybe he even snapped earlier on and is out to get revenge for ~~robb~~ ~~arya~~ his siblings? come at me! ]

[ Maddie was doing what she generally did when not faced with a pressing crisis or task, she was laughing and thinking of all the inequities life had dealt her. Was it her fault that she'd been created as an echo of another woman? That she was made for part of an experiment to create further still mutant offspring? No. None of that was her choice and frankly ridding herself of her connections to them was the best thing she'd ever done.

Oh, well after seducing her ex-husband's brother of course. Served him right, abandoning her and their son for Jean weak-willed simpleton. Of the two of them, it was clear that Madelynn was superior but everyone fawned over Jean, it made her sick.

She didn't want to kill her, no that would be quick and clean and easy, she wanted messy and prolonged and humiliating. Make Jean suffer for all the time she'd been forced to live in her shadow. The idea had merit and made her smile, teeth nibbling at a fingernail in thought as a voice called from her window.

Bright green eyes fixed on the...well what have we here? ]

I'm intentionally hard to find or I seem to attract pests.

[ If he was one or not remained to be seen but at least he wasn't boring, yet. She let him continue, leaning ever closer as he spoke until her chin rested in her upturned palm and she smiled like a cat in a sunbeam. ]

Then I think you'd better come in, we have so much to talk about.

[ canonically turned sith, so someone please save her from her stupidity — jaina? uncle luke? mom? dad? ani? grandpa? grandma? 🥺 for disney canon AUs, probably answered the summons on exegol and killed palps and is now sith empress because she truly believes what she's doing is for the Greater Good™️ of the galaxy? for other lines, especially if shipping-flavored, she'll likely go dark side to protect/avenge someone she cares about, so yeah. ]

[ A nice little mix of 1, 2, and 3. And, well, 7 if you mean "Hell" literally. :} ]

Thank you. Don't mind if I do.

[He sails into the room with nimble grace on his Goblin Gilder, as unearthly in movement as any real supernatural creature before landing on the floor and stepping off without missing a beat. He is Spider-Man's near equal in agility after all.

The grotesque green and purple costume and face mask equal parts absurd yet unsettling in that absurdity and just plain nightmarish as he seems to almost skip merrily to seat himself on the couch besides Maddie.]

We have a fair bit in common or so the intelligence files I've acquired told me. To start with, I was once happily married too... But then my lovely Emily died in childbirth, leaving me all alone with a son to raise... I'm sure that pain is familiar to you. Though you had it much worse. He chose to leave you.

[Norman doesn't speak the name. Not yet.]
