BAD GUYS ANONYMOUS

[memelikeyoumeanit]

WELCOME FELLOW BAD GUYS

We understand that you don't want to be here. Really. We get it. Or maybe you do want to be here, maybe that court mandated therapy is actually working or maybe you're just glad to have someone to talk to about what it takes to be you. The fact remains is that as much as people like to think that storytelling is divided into good versus evil, it's really not.

No, as humanity has progressed, so has the definitions of good and evil. Every day there are more and more anti-heroes, more and more people driven by cynicism and mistrust as opposed to genuine cackling evil. There's still the occasional cackling witch, but even she wants to go to the grocery store and buy milk without people booing. (No one mourns the wicked? Don't people realize how much that hurts?)

In any case, please pull up a reasonably comfortable folding chair, take a cup of your beverage of choice (we have hot and cold running coffee, blood, you name it). This is a safe place for people who writers across the ages have deemed as "bad" to talk about just what it means to be evil without fear of reprisal.

That's right. Here the meddling potter boy cannot touch you, the scooby doo gang aren't going to pull off your mask. No vampire slayers, no zombie hunters, no cops (we understand that some of you maybe were cops at one point.)

The price of this however is that you check your weapons at the door (they'll be returned to you on the way out) and keep your hands to yourself for the majority of the meeting. This is a safe place for you to share. The only thing about being bad, is staying bad when there's no one there to support you.

1. AS THE MEME TITLE SAYS: THIS IS FOR BAD GUYS ONLY However given how not many people play bad guys if you want to AU your good guy into a bad guy setting that's more then acceptable. Just remember - Bad Anonymous is for bad guys so they've gotta be bad.
2. Post your shares. New arrivals, old shares, maybe you're running through your game again and you just can't handle yet another turn with the Order of the Phoenix or maybe you're tired of people shooting your buddies in the head. This is a place to vent to other villains.
3. Comment and Tag around, sharing your own experiences. This does rely on a slight degree of meta, but come on. Who wouldn't want to give Voldemort advice on how to deal with that pesky potter boy, or help Atlas with his plans to take over Rapture? Everybody from the morally gray to the darker then black are welcome!

THIS MEME CONTAINS POTENTIALLY MATURE SUBJECT MATTER, THEMES, AND POSSIBLY TRIGGERING ELEMENTS.
we are dealing with aspects of villany guys. Please be smart.

CATO | THE HUNGER GAMES.

[onlygoodfordeath]

[Someone really does not want to be here. And it shows. He hasn't said anything, he's just sitting with his head forward staring at the floor.

All this talk about accepting your place in the world and being happy with who you are. How the hell can you be happy if you lost. If you lost like that.

But he's starting to fidget, and it might be pretty easy to see.]

HOLLAND MANNERS | ANGEL/BUFFYVERSE

[wecannegotiate]

[Holland stands by this philosophy. Hell he lives by it, encourages his people to live by it too. Straightening, he smiles.]

I'd like to take a moment to talk about an incident, that still bothers me. Honestly.

I understand that it had to happen. I mean - my firm is in the business of trying to turn people to the dark side. So to speak. All the same the cost of it is high...terribly high. In this case in trying to turn a single individual to the dark side ultimately cost me my wife.

I think what gets me the most isn't...that she's dead. That we're both dead. Hell we're together again and that's just fine. It's that...that I knew I couldn't help her and she had to go.

I like to take a moment then to recite our affirmation. Just pause, take stock a little bit. Because even though the cost is high...without evil where would we all be? The good guys need something to fight against. Even if it hurts.

HARVEY DENT | NOLANVERSE BATMAN

[believe_in_me]

[Two-Face is occasionally rubbing the coin in his hands. He always keeps his eyes on the floor out of respect for the other members of the badanon meetings.

Hard not to. He really can't stand people looking at him.]

Anybody else get a real sense of satisfaction from managing to bring a so-called "good guy" down to your level.

I mean anyone. I can't be the only person who feels very vindicated when you get a good guy willing to play by the way the universe actually works instead of some twisted comic-book logic.

Music Meister | Batman: Brave and the Bold

[hypnotic_patter]

I try to think of Arkham as just a green room. A place to wait for my next turn on the stage. There's really only two end goals for most villains and I'd really rather be in prison than suffering a karmic death through my own foolish pride.

Besides, Batman needs us. If we weren't out there in bright costumes terrorizing the public with zany schemes a man waging a one-man war on crime in a batsuit would just seem childish.

[There may be some fanboying of top-rate supervillains, should they come too close to him. Meister really appreciates a good performance.]

jim moriarty | sherlock bbc | ota

[goodoldfashionedvillain]

[ What a lovely place for a consulting criminal. Therapy? Not quite. Recruiting, perhaps, if any of them have the mental capacities to do what a certain job requires. In the mean time, he'll just be sipping the (rather awful, tastes a bit like acid) coffee, and lurking by the door. ]

[believe_in_me]

[An eyebrow is raised.]

It says something about Gotham City...when there's a man who feels desperate enough to do something about crime that he dresses up in a bat suit in the first place.

[Then again in his Gotham City, that just sort of happened to Bruce.]

Re: CATO | THE HUNGER GAMES.

[nevermissing]

This is bullshit. [Clove glances over at her district partner.] Who the fuck are they to label us 'bad guys'. I wouldn't consider either of us bad.

[onlygoodfordeath]

[He just nods, mutely.] We were doing what we were trained to do. It's complete bullshit.

All this talk about "She had to win, the universe can't function without good guys. Remember how she killed Marvel?"

[hypnotic_patter]

[Oh wow Two-Face is talking to him. Somber face, somber face, don't get all giddy--but his past is just so tragic.]

I'm sure he had his reasons for the batsuit. Somehow.

Meg//Supernatural

[cryptkeeper]

[Meg could be paying less attention. Maybe. Possibly. It would take a lot of effort.

She's sitting in the circle, what more could you want from her, really? Maybe to put the people magazine down and pay attention, but that's asking a bit too much. As far as she's concerned she's here and people should be happy they got that much. ]

[nevermissing]

[She scoffs.] She's a coward. I wish Marvel had gotten her. I was going to have so much fun with Rue. Screw everyone from 11. What a useless district.

But 12 is a coward until the end. With the tracker jackers? No one wants to see people die of natural causes. They want entertainment. She was not entertaining.

[onlygoodfordeath]

[They'll just be over here ignoring the rest of the badanon residents.]

Crowds want blood. Not mutations. And Glimmer..

I get it was a district one tactic you know? Being all nice to us but that's how the game is played.

Cole Turner // Charmed

[deviladvocate]

[ Ah. He's just going to laugh, short and bitter sound. How naive he was to believe that he could be good. In the end, she still left him. But that was fine. Comes with the job. ]

[placeintheworld]

[Sitting next to him, Lindsey snorts. He really doesn't buy into this, at all. Wolfram and Hart's attorney - young, up and coming, the golden boy, just shakes his head.

It's hard not to be annoyed ]

[believe_in_me]

[The laugh is bitter and twisted. He sees your fanboying bro.]

He's a selfish asshole?

STEVEN HADLEY | CABIN IN THE WOODS

[coolerwithamerman]

Just like to point out. [Someone has a cup of coffee and looks - very at home.]

The majority of us being here? Is fucking bullshit. Bull. Shit. raise your hands if you were just doing your job.

Raise your hands!

MARCUS | WARM BODIES.

[bitchesman]

[Someone's got to speak up for the zombies. never mind that it's just grunts and groans. and then.]

victim. of circumstance.

[More groans.]

Learned to. make peace.

[givenanonymity]

[He'll just stand here. Smirking. He's not sitting down. Not buying into this.

This isn't villainy. What he does. (He's just crazy enough to believe that.)]

Loki Laufeyson | mcu, norse mythology | ota

[fated_to_lose]

{ Oh, the trickster loves complicating lives, it's really killing that gives him a certain high and oh yes, he does it for fun. What else do you expect from the god of mischief? He would sooner deceive you and at the last second, deprive you of life the next. Caring not for the consequences because he''s a god who does what he wants, whenever and however it is acceptable by loki.

Though he must rid himself of his weapons by the door, the sorcerer is never without his magic. But for now, so long as you don't provoke him, no ill will come of you. }

I was a king; the rightful king of asgard. I must find a way to destroy thor and take back what was once mine. You know, without actually killing thor. Chain him up and show him true humiliation.

Afterall .. it's only fair to inflict pain on those who did so, first.

[goodoldfashionedvillain]

Not sitting down either? [ Lips stretching wide, curling in a near imitation of a smile - closer to a smirk, honestly. ] Now now, aren't you rebellious.

[wickedthiswaycomes]

[ As one who is a necromancer who is known for making zombies-- zombie-vampires, whatever-- it simply breaks her heart to hear that. ] Now, now... you don't need to justify anything to anyone.

[givenanonymity]

[Hoffman leans back.] Isn't that the whole point of this meeting? [When he turns one can see a very faint scar running from one side of his face to his ear.] Being fucking "Rebellious?"

Adam Monroe || Heroes || OTA

[hardenedimmortal]

[Adam was bored and slightly disgruntled at being here. He didn't really pay attention to the labels of society, unless it benefited him in some way. However, he felt that the term villain was a little too strong in his case. He had been merely trying to cleanse the world so that humanity could start over and break the cycle of war, destruction, and famine that they'd been stuck in for centuries.

That didn't really make him a bad guy, did it?]

[bitchesman]

[He turns his head with a loud sharp crack.]

True.

Need to eat.

That's.


[There's a good ten minute pause]

Life.

Izanami | Persona 4

[invites]

[ The original goddess of death levitates rather than sits, sweeping her immaculate robes about her. She did no wrong. She help others find their true self. ] The Children of Men have grown in my eyes. [ Hey, she lost, but she is a graceful loser. ] But if they continue on that same path or not is unknown. [ A soft smile. And if they deviate from that path, she'll be there. ] What will become of them in the future I only look forward to seeing for myself.
