why does EVERY villain au make whoever theyre edgifying into some snappy dresser. the villains have BAD FASHION! theyre UGLY!
we’ve got the crusty motherfuckers, coming in two flavors: “rolled out of bed and only had time to put on shoes and hands” and “homeless but still dedicated to being goth, bad at being goth.” prioritizing Ugly Belt and Handcloak over having pants that fit and socks. just. any socks please.
after school special feat. crimes! mustard gets some credit for at least bothering to go to a costume shop and getting a $2 mask but theyre just in their fucking school uniforms
these arent villains these are cosplayers from really obscure sources who take it very personally that no one knows who they are
overhaul used his quirk on his eyes thats the only reason he could possibly think that green and that purple go together. also BUY CLOTHES that FIT YOU!!! where are your SOCKS!!!!!! plain white fucking keds what the hell is going ON HERE!!!!!!!!!!
theres a difference between sticking to an aesthetic and looking like amusement park rejects and guess where these chucklefucks land
welcome to the shame corner for complete disgraces

now see this? THIS is class! simple! clean! professional! got a striped tie to add a little personality! THIS is a man who’s concerned with his image as much as he is his crimes!
in conclusion kurogiri is the ONLY well dressed villain bar none. open your eyes. theyre ugly.
there’s a lot of reasons why dirk is considered a villian (though I consider antagonist a better term) but i feel that one of them according to his own words is that he wants to be stopped, and that he knows when someone kills him, it’ll be just. i could get into it but dirk strider is a dude who creates problems for himself and needs control, especially over his own arc, and if other people’s arcs play a factor in it then so be it I suppose
if you REALLY want to understand dirk I would suggest reading the now canonized version of detective pony up on AO3 or listening to the audio books on youtube! it’s extremely good and there’s some bits in there where dirk unabashedly psychoanalyzes himself through the lens of a fictional character with some very good quotes, I’ll reblog with some specific examples
the following quotes are either dirk addressing himself in second person or directly:
But here’s the best part. That self-centeredness? It’s compounded with self-loathing. So the more I talk about myself, the more I feel guilty, and that gets me off, which means I need to talk about it more, just to prove how fucking selfish I am, which gives me further reason to hate myself, and so on. Ad infinitum. Ad nauseam. I make myself sick with it, sick of it. I’m sick.
Do people want to read that? Doesn’t matter, I want to say it, because I think it’s clever, and everyone else needs to see how clever I am, so it’s goin’ in.
and finally:
You know what would be really cathartic?…If you dropped all the meta-bullshit and masturbatory word games. If you stopped hiding behind them. If you could just make one sincere effort at reaching out to the other human being reading this. Without using quotation marks or a ‘Dirk said’ to separate yourself from this character. If you could be honest and straightforward and candid for once in your damn life and just communicate.”
I never made a dancestor for my troll so i did it now
her name is Aurume Lomayn and she’s a thief of heart. Her counterpart on the other side of the scratch is called the DeSigner and her place in alternian culture is to strip the signs of trolls both physically and metaphorically, using chucklevoodooz to remove any sense of self and prepare them for culling or worse.
