Dead poet society and Villainous cross-over nobody asked for 🫣

[orengejoshi]

Love you art. My favorite thing is definitely your coloring. Flug does give t boy swag. Hope to see more of your drawing soon. Out of curiosity what do you hope for season 2?

Thank youu🥺💜

I know what you meant but just the entire term "T boy swag" reminded me of my fav rapper who just goes by "T" and since I wanted to do that for a while anyway (his songtexts would resonate with Flug so much) I used this as an excuse to redraw one of his album covers, so I love that, I'm gonna steal that heheh

(relatively unrelated for everyone except me lol but I always throw in some art when replying to asks)

umm yeah so... we're not even done with the first season, so idk. from S1-B I predict more of what we've had so far; more or less episodic comedy, slowly easing us into a connected plot. 6th episode already kinda introduced that.

it's gonna be one of those cartoons like TOH who start off silly and episodic in the first season and develop into a melodramatic serialized show from 2nd season onwards.

this is going to be an unpopular opinion but I actually do not 100% vibe with that, I prefer episodic cartoons like SpongeBob or South Park without overarching plot; comedy over drama. but it was always obvious that Villainous is gonna have a fuck ton of lore so I'm not disappointed.

my criticism rn is that I feel it's already way too many characters I'm sorry. it's getting pretty convoluted. I'm just not a fan of that but again pretty subjective. I can't bring myself to care for absolutely any character that we haven't seen animated yet. it's been too long for me to throw too many new characters in the mix, I've been nonstop hyperfixated since 7 years so I'm skeptical about changes.

as for the plot, I have no idea. we're in so early that I can't even imagine where this is gonna go.

for the end I wish that no ship with the main 3 becomes canon. it's just going to create fandom wars, just leave it open

I just want to see Flug happy...

I'll always just hope to get as much information about Flug as possible

definitely hope they explore Miss Heed's character too, as long as she doesn't end up with Flug l'm interested in her. I would like to see her getting worse (maybe switching sides?) before finally healing and learning to love herself

I want to know more about Goldheart and consequently about Flug's past

I wish for Demencia to snap out of her brainwash some day and learn about her past. I need Flug and Demencia to become real good friends and escape together with 505. I do NOT want them to become heroes but in order to find true happiness and peace they'll have to leave this place imo

but I think most of that is WAY in the future, this won't all happen in the 2nd season. but idk how long this series is gonna be, I doubt the crew even knows, so ye!

PaperGold Headcanon: Flug Gave GoldHeart his Earrings

This is an extremely far fetched PaperGold Headcanon 😂 but I noticed that during the timeline when Miss Heed saw GoldHeart on TV in Flug's flashback and when she has a most likely old magazine of him, you can see he is not wearing earrings.

(again this is far fetched because the image is blurry)

However when Miss Heed joined The Golden Rule, you can see him wearing his gold earrings.

The earrings are the one thing that doesn't fit with GoldHeart's costume

GoldHeart dyes his hair gold, wears a gold cape, and heck even gold knee pads so why wouldn't his earrings be also heart shaped?

I made a few theories that Flug and GoldHeart met and became good friends friends (or possibly something more) after Miss Heed left the academy and before she joined the Golden Rule.

(1) (2) (3)

I theorized that GoldHeart once off mentioned to Flug that he wants to get some gold earrings and Flug to make his friend happy, decided to buy or since he is a genius inventor and engineer who could make and build robots hence has experience forging with metal, most likely made the earrings himself from some gold from his own stash of stolen gold to give it as a present for his friend.

GoldHeart is touched by the sweet gesture from his beloved friend, and decides to wear the earrings and not take it off even in his hero costume although they don't match his costume theme.

P.E.A.C.E. offered to give GoldHeart earrings to match his costume but he refused, saying that he wants to where his earrings because it was from someone special.

One of the reasons Flug recognised GoldHeart was his friend Herbert Leth was because of the earrings he gave him, which led to GoldHeart finding out that Flug is a villain which resulted in them having a feud.

Even after they become Arch-Enemies, GoldHeart still wears the earrings to remind him of Flug and as a hope and motivation that he can redeem him or eliminate villainy forever one day so that they can be together.

Flug probably thought GoldHeart was still wearing the earrings to mock him as a reminder of their "false friendship" and that he managed to trick him.

Stolas And Miss Heed: Characters In Love With The Concept Of Love As A Form Of Validation

I said time before Stolas and Miss Heed really have a lot in common with one another. They are rich assholes who use the people around them like toys while claiming they love them. I think these two screenshots really sum up their characters that they are people chasing the shadow of those they are obsessed with because inside they really can't love themselves. However, with Miss Heed the show rightfully calls out how she still is a horrible person who hurts people to feel good about herself and that she was always a toxic person to Flug.

Stolas on the other hand is babied and treated like a saint who is valid for feeling the way he feels even though he ignores his daughter to pursue his selfish demands. There is also the fact that even though Heed has tragic elements that doesn't mean that excuses her behavior which is a major criticism of Stolas is that the narrative does that to the point people have grown to despite him. Meanwhile, Miss Heed has a strong fanbase because it understands she's toxic while also realizing she can still be a tragic character.

Another thing what makes Heed better written is that the narrative doesn't gaslight into thinking she did nothing wrong to Flug and Flug isn't right to keep a distance from her. It's not only because she's a hero and he's a villain, but she has used him time and before in the past. If someone continues to hurt you to use you then you have every right to cut them out, especially when they obviously haven't learned their lesson and still want you to help them without remorse. The same can't be said for Stolas which the narrative tries to say he hasn't done anything wrong while putting the blame on everyone else for why he's treated Blitzo like crap. And the fact that Blitzo dared call him out is portrayed as him going too far, instead of a wake up call that needed to be stated loud and clear. If someone is toxic no matter how much you have personal issues they still can rightfully cut you or call you out.

As said before, Stolas has hurt people in his pursuit of Blitzo. Despite the demonization of Stella, the show doesn't recognize how much he's hurt his daughter in pursuit of romantic love. He puts so much on finding his happy fantasy that he forgot the reality of having a strong relationship with his daughter whose stable life was ruined the moment he decided his happiness was more important than her having a good home life. Again this contrasts with Heed who like Stolas put someone she cared about in the past too the side to pursue her obsession. In this case, after she stole Flug's thesis she decided to become a hero to pursue Goldheart. She didn't care about how this would affect him and only wanted to pursue her want for a super awesome popular boyfriend with Goldheart.

Even though Villainous hasn't had any episodes in three years, I do love they did this archetype much better than Stolas who in my opinion has gotten more and more insufferable. If Stolas was written the way that Miss Heed was portrayed then I wouldn't have a problem with the show focusing on him instead of him always being babied and protected from his horrible decisions.

Wedding troubles.

Finished the first chapter, sorry if it's cringe

Summery: Black Hat proposed to Flug and now he’s determined to give Flug the perfect wedding.

Never, never in a million years would Black Hat have ever guessed that he would end up falling in love with his spineless weakling of a scientist. Honestly he was still pretty surprised that it happened at all.

Four years ago he suddenly found himself wanting to be around Flug more, to spend time around him without scolding him or making him fear for his life, next thing he knew they were officially dating. Next they started sharing a bed, having meals together, going on dates, and earlier that day he got on one knee with a ring which had the biggest red diamond he could get and asked Flug to marry him. He would never forget the look of pure joy on Flugs face as he accepted with tears in his eyes.

Currently they were both laying in bed, Flug was fast asleep while Black Hat was lost in thought. He didn't know much about weddings,  but he knew the basics of it, it was a human ritual where lovers declare their unending love to each other, he didn't see why it was necessary but it seemed to be important to humans, which was confirmed by Flugs reaction.

From what research he did, weddings can be big time events or a small gathering, he wasn't sure which they would end up doing (he'd have to talk to Flug about it in the morning), but one thing he knew for a fact, that he would make it perfect. Flug was the love of his life, one of the only things in this miserable world that he truly cared about, and therefore he would only get the best of anything.

Black Hats thoughts were interrupted by the sound of rustling sheets. Black Hat looked to his side to find that Flug changed positions in his sleep, his back now facing Black Hat. He looked so small under the comforter,  from this angle Black Hat had a clear view of Flugs back, which was covered in old scars from past abuse. Black Hat may be have been violent in the past, but he knew better than to  leave lasting marks or damage, that would effect productivity.

He's seen them before, he knew they were from Flugs father because he wanted Flug to be 'normal', to 'stop acting like a boy' , and of course 'why can't you be more like your brother'.

Flug had suffered a lot in his life, from his abusive fathers beatings, his manipulative mother always guilt tripping him into doing what his parents wanted, and his superhero brother making him have to hide his face because if any villain saw it, they would recognize him as looking like Goldheart. Because of this Black Hat always did what he could to make Flugs life as perfect as possible, and this would be no different. Their wedding was going to be perfect. He would make sure of it.

•

It was 6:00 AM, Black Hat was watching as the rising sun illuminated Flugs face. Ever since they started sharing a bed Flug started to sleep without his bag, giving Black Hat the opportunity to admire every aspect of Flugs face, his scars from the plane crash that landed him in Black Hats mansion, his greying brown hair from stress and poor diet, even his buck teeth were cute. Usually Black Hat hated things he found cute but Flug seemed to be an exception. Black Hat didn't need to sleep so he usually spent his nights watching over Flug as he slept.

Flugs eyes slowly fluttered open, the light on his face having woken him up, he gave Black Hat a small smile as his vision gained focus, "morning" he said in a hushed voice, still groggy.

"Good morning dear." Black Hat purred lovingly, pulling Flug in for a quick kiss before they both got out of bed to get ready for the day.

Once in the dining room for breakfast Flug was immediately stopped by Demencia excitedly gushing about their engagement.

"This is amazing! That ring is gorgeous! When's the wedding? Can I PLEASE be the flower girl?"

Flug groaned and answered her with "we got engaged yesterday Dem, we can talk about that stuff later." While sipping his coffee and wondering how she could be so giddy in the early morning. Flug deciding he had enough energy to eat, sat at the table where 505 set a plate of pancakes.

"Thanks 505." He said to the bear, who gave a happy "baw." With a big smile on his face.

Flug wasted no time digging in, practically inhaling his food. Once he was done he quickly put his plate in the sink, finished his coffee and urged Black Hat to his office so they could discus wedding plans. They almost immediately decided that a big wedding was a bad idea, due to most of the inhabitants of hat island being Black Hat followers and fangirls, and the bigger issues of heroes finding out. Their relationship wasn't exactly a secret, there were several viral photos and videos of them being seen out on dates, killing heroes together and especially the one of them making out in front of a burning hospital, the general public new about their relationship. So if a hero found out about them getting married they would no doubt crash the wedding in an attempt to catch them off guard. A small wedding was the safest option.

Next they discussed what kind of guest list they should have. "Usually friends and family and invited, correct?" Black Hat recounted from the research (quick google search) regarding weddings. Flug seemed uncomfortable at the mention of family, "Well yes, usually, but there can be exceptions, depending on relationships." Flug responded, wanting to drop the subject of family. "I see, that makes makes this more simple regarding our situations." Flugs relationship with his family isn't exactly good. His parents treated him horribly once they found out his brother had superpowers, straight A's not being enough to satisfy them anymore. His relationship with his brother was more complicated, Goldheart was never outwardly cruel, but it wasn't really good either. They only really got along as young children, when Goldheart discovered his powers they got more distant, Goldheart usually being busy hanging out with friends or being praised by their parents. They only realy interacted when Goldheart wanted help with studying, felt the need to "protect his baby sister" from bullies or creepy boys, or on the weekends when he got a new video game and wanted to show Flug. Their relationship only went down hill with Flugs growing resentment of their parents liking Goldheart more no matter what he did, and Goldhearts ignorance of the abuse Flug was receiving and his gender identity problems. When Flug became a villain his parents practically disowned him with Goldheart treating him like he was a lost puppy that ran away, acting like it was just a phase (another reason why he hid his face). Not to mention the fact that “Kathleen” was declared missing 19 years ago when he was brought to Black Hat institute. As for Black Hat, being an ancient eldritch being he didn't have a family, making inviting any family off the table.

Continuing the discussion Flug talked about inviting close friends like Penumbra, suddenly Flug shot up in his seat looking at his watch in shock. "OH NO, I need to get to work!" Flug practically sprinted to the door talking so fast Black Hat almost didn't hear him say "sorry I have to get to work I'll talk to you at lunch I love you bye!" Just before closing the door. As much as Black hat would like to spend all day with Flug and planning their wedding, they still have a business to run.

Now alone, Black Hat pulled out a laptop from his drawer (one that Flug got him after he broke the tablet). If he was going to give Flug a perfect wedding then he needed to know more about them. He could research and continue planning while Flug worked and discuss it more on his lunch break, giving Flug less things to stress about.

He was Black Hat after all, their was almost nothing he couldn't do, besides, how hard could planning a wedding be?

[papergold-hearts]

How do you think Dr Flug and Goldheart first met?

I have two possible idea's actually, the first they grew up together (with Goldheart being friends with Flugs brother or just grew up in the same town) but didn't actually meet until graduation (maybe middle school, since Flug went to Black hats school for villains (I forgot the name) and I don't think they'd celebrate their son becoming a villain) where Flug parents posed with Goldheart instead of him.

The second is that Goldheart was friends with Flugs brother during his hero school days and said brother even gave Goldheart his powers. Even inviting Goldheart to dinner where he was officially introduced to Flug and the two become friends (as Flug was forced to give up his room but Goldheart wanting to leave a good impression said he's sleep in the living room. They compromised/ parents forced Flug to share) It was fine they even swapped numbers (Flug was lowkey forced to by his family) until he learned Flug ran away to join Black Hats school,which caused them to loose contact.

I also imagine they were each other's first rival, as Flugs first major scheme was stopped by Goldheart and the rest was history.

Villainous SPOILERS for Episode 6: Heedious Heart

I guess we now know who was Flug’s “Lenore” that they have mentioned in the Villainous streams.

Kenning and Cecilia in High School

We now that Flug didn’t exactly had a grand time in High School of Evil.

And based on another high school photo and several of Flug’s flashbacks, most of the kids are repulsed at Cecilia’s bubbly and hammy personality:

From Flug’s flashbacks, they seem to get along to some degree, starting from when Cecilia first approached him in what seems to be a chemistry class. 

As the episode has revealed that Cecilia stole Kenning’s thesis chemical formula for her own means, Kenning may not have a friend in Cecilia. But Cecilia did have a friend in Kenning as he let her borrow his thesis. 

Edit: They were probably the closest they ever had in each other as friends. It’s also safe to say that Kenning had a crush on Cecilia as he had kept her group photo as well as her kitty-cat headband after she dropped it in pursuit of seeing something she liked.

Only for his feelings to be dashed when he found out that she quit school to be a super heroine to be with Goldheart.

Which is probably why Dr. Flug rejects romantic love of the infatuated nature in one of the Villainous Orientation videos.

Back in the episode, “Miss Heed��� only sounded familiar for Flug and didn’t recognize her until she called out for him in her streams, Dr. Flug must’ve shoved his past painful memories at the back of his mind and moved on. 

Miss Heed: Self-centered Affection and Dr. Flug

Miss Heed’s primary motive was to be loved by Goldheart. And when Goldheart didn’t reciprocate, she chose to “earn” that love.

Her every Instagram content was used to adorn both city and her lair. She is literally surrounding herself with things that boosts her ego: from adoring fans at her beck and call, to cute pictures and videos of herself.

In the episode, Miss Heed treated everyone that she met as a tool. From Omega to Coyote to every obsessed fan. They were all an extension of herself. There were all means to her primary motive. Flug is no exception. She wanted him found because she needed the person who invented the chemical she’s using to have a permanent effect. 

She may have used affectionate terms for Dr. Flug, calling him “Fluggy” and even “Kenning”. But she did outright say that “I must say that stealing your work was a good idea but it's much better to use you.” She may have used the hashtag # H&F but that is because she needed him to make Goldheart love her. Once again, she only sees him as a means to an end. 

That is why her downfall, a kiss, is ironic. Just when victory was SO close, she decided to celebrate by kissing the first guy she had charmed like coming full circle in her journey of making stepping stones out of entranced people. 

For What It’s Worth...

Despite the fact that Flug has shoved his heartbreak at the back of his mind and moved on, plus the fact that he was really mad at her that his formula was stolen and exploited-

-I liked how he still spoke softly to her when he infiltrated a max security prison to ask her what Goldheart is planning. 

For what it’s worth, he still had a soft spot for the friendship she had given him even if she had ulterior motives in the end. But that soft spot only extended to well-wishes and a final goodbye.  

Miss Heed’s Instagram is filled with tasteful photos, good shots on heroic action, advertisements and OOTDs (outfit-of-the-day). It gave her an image of ideal beauty, well-rounded lifestyle and righteous heroism. 

Take that all away, and what is revealed is Cecilia who is lost without the love and acceptance of someone else. 

And Flug, for some reason, understood that to an extent that he all boiled it down to one gentle reminder. 

[davids-cartoon-corkboard]

That Cecilia says she hopes Goldheart will come for her and not that he will come for her is... telling.

(”This account is under the investigation of P.E.A.C.E.” -from miss_heed on Instagram)

P.E.A.C.E. has already seized control of her social media, so it’s no stretch to say they also have her tech, formula, data, etc. It doesn’t seem like Goldheart would further benefit from helping her, so... why would he help her? Even if he could benefit from helping a criminal who victimized an entire city, his reputation would be trashed if the public found out. It’s not worth the risk.

She's pink. She's got a heart motif. She's cute. She's peppy. She's entertaining. She works for and cares very much about one person in particular. She's a Cartoon Network character.

She’s going to stay where she is for quite some time, only re-entering the plot when she realizes who she’s waiting for will never come.

Cecilia’s design after getting dunked doesn’t feel equivalent to Spinel’s second form, though. It seems... incomplete? Like it’s only a hint of what’s to come.

The claw imagery combined with the super-saturated pink on her hands and face makes me think getting dunked fundamentally Changed her, even more than she was changed by P.E.A.C.E.’s experiments. It’s latent now, but the despair she’ll feel when Goldheart's rejection/abandonment sinks in will make her transform.

She may not be angry at him right away, though. Perhaps, she’ll think, he was right to leave her to rot. He knew she was a monster on the inside all along, that he shouldn’t waste his effort on her. But blaming someone else for your problems is much easier than blaming yourself for your problems, so she’ll turn her wrath towards Flug. The formula that transformed her is based on his work, after all, and he is very good at making monsters. But that’s not quite right either, Cecilia’s downfall and condition aren’t Flug’s fault. She’ll come to realize this when they inevitably clash again, and that it wasn’t her fault, either! It was that idiot Goldheart’s!

Ugh, heroes. They always go on and on and on about peace and justice, but they fundamentally want the same thing villains do: to have power over others, and to have a good time crushing anyone who gets in their way. At least villains are honest about it.

Her new form makes her much more powerful than she used to be, but it’s still not enough power for her to mow down Goldheart’s followers. It’s not enough for her to tear apart his team. It’s not enough for her to reach through his ribs and rip out his shitty pyrite heart as he watches all he worked for burn in front of him.

But for Miss Heed to get the power she needs...

...she’ll have to give something in exchange.

[madscientistenthusiast]

Wanted to throw this theory out cause I'm bored, so yall know how Flug doesn't know how long he's been working for BH? I like to think that even being in the Presence of him, because of the pure evil chaotic energy radiating from him, pretty much scrambles your brain. Similar to how those who haven't signed a contract wirh him find him much scarier than he actually looks. Flug loses time very often, and I like to think he's been there for a much shorter time than he thinks, and possibly doesn't even know how old he is at this point. Leaving him in a perpetual state of confusion and stress so he can't ever attempt to escape or plot against BH in any way.

And with this concept, does it also amplify emotions? Given how casual Goldheart was about seeing Flug's up to no good again, I'm thinking they were much closer than originally assumed, having at least been on friendly terms with him before his "Disapearance", do Flug's current memories not match the actual actions? Does being in Black Hat's Presence corrupt his memories of the past?

[noodlenibblescribble]

HELLO PEOPLE THAT LOVE VILLAINOUS. I HAVE FINALLY FINALLY FINALLY WATCHED THE DAMN ELUSIVE SEASON 1 AND MY LOVE FOR FLUGMENCIA/PAPERLIZARD HAS ONLY AMPLIFIED. GOOD SHIT IN THESE EPISODES. Including:

- Flug calling their dynamic Jesse and James

- Flug ASKING for Demencia when Black Hat didn't mention him bringing her along.

- Demencia grinning and sweetly saying she missed Flug too when he accidentally almost shot her fjdjdjdjdjjwh.

- Yes I include the whole wrestling episode, my shipper heart chooses to headcanon Demencia liked the closeness of grappling with Flug. She went easy on his weak ass.

- Little moments of closeness like Demencia getting annoyed at Flug's jokes, her knowing what he was going to ask before he even did just by his tone of voice, Flug casually mentioning how doing something is taking longer than him helping Demencia with her morning routine, just them 😭

- AND OF COURSE THE LAST EPISODE. Demencia getting googoo eyes seeing Flug fighting. Demencia crying at Flug's betrayal. Flug getting out of the spell because he relives his heartbreak and the first person he sees that sweeps him off his feet is Dem. Dem being glad to see him back to his senses, and wasting no time annoying him again. And last but not least, Demencia saving Flug and asking if he's OK, genuinely looking concerned about hurting him fjfjfjfdhdhdj.

Anyways I loved what I've been given and I want so much more of these idiots. Flug has definitely solidified as a favorite. God damn this is HIS show more than Black Hat's at this point djdhdjdjd. Also this is random but I'm headcanoning Goldheart is Flug's brother because it fits with my fanfic 😔

[nightfurmoon]

I think the reason Goldheart doesn’t call Flug Kenny is because Kenny seems to be a much more affectionate nickname.

After all his actual name is Kenning Flugslys, and Kenny seems to be a nickname for those who like or care for him. I doubt, considering the hints of his past (emotionally neglecting and possibly even abusive parents and possible brother), that they’d have a good relationship, which was probably why Goldheart called him Flug instead of Kenning.

Which brings me to Goldhearts name. There’s a syndrome called Golden Child Sydrome, which is basically where one child is treated more fairly and loved than the second child (second child likely Flug). Goldheart’s name may be a reference to that.

Good point! Maybe not Kenny then, but Kenning, 'cus that's his actual name? It doesn't matter much ig, but if the crew wanted to convey certain closeness between the two, they should've made him call Flug Kenning imo

And oohh yeah you're right! That's very clever actually...

[its-more-than-just-a-fantasy]

The heart shaped dust on Cecilia's photo, makes me think she was really Flug/Kenny's first crush!

Wait was she supposed to be a villain?? She is the the Black Hat school/university!!! 👀👀 Maybe she decided to become a hero since she loved Goldheart,and that would explain why she stole Flug's project, true hero's don't steal!!

Maybe she used to love/like Flug/Kenny maybe both of them where nerds and bullied by the others students, nobody liked her or noticed her, except Kenny and she wanted to be loved and liked by everyone. At at some point she developed a crush on Goldheart, who at that time was the cool guy, but he never noticed her or the 3 of them were really good friends, Kenny loved Cecilia but she loved Goldheart, maybe she even confessed her love to him, but he saw her just as a friend and she always felt insecure about herself because of his rejection, so desperate she decided to use Kenny's crush on her against him to steal his invention!!! And then when Goldheart became a superhero, she decided to become one to get noticed by him!! Wow what a great reason to become a hero eh!

Or since she was a villainess and nobody liked her cause she was a bad girl, one day she met Goldheart, he made her feel loved and accepted her for who she was, so she eventually fall for him, so she left her villainous life to fight side by side with him,

Whatever has happened between the thre of them I'm glad that despite her taking advantage on him, he has no hard feelings for Cecilia, and wished her the best and to be happy, he even gave her a good advice too so I think he still cares/loves her, slightly at least.

Flug Snaps

          I feel like in some point in the series, probably in the season finale, everything(Blackhat’s abuse, dangerous death adventures, his past, etc) will catch up to him and go BESERK! Especially on those who screwed him over the most.  Flug-“You know my past with Goldheart right Sir? Born into a family where the oldest has amazing superpowers and had everyone’s hearts. His family adores him, has plenty of friends, he has it good. And then there’s me. They say early bird gets the worm, they were right. No matter what I did, all the awards I won, all the inventions I made, no matter what, NO ONE even bothered to look in my direction. So I decided, screw it and became a villain, make my own path. Find someone else who’d see my worth. Got into villain school and became a super genius. Then I met you.” 

     I did EVERYTHING and ANYTHING I could to please you. I’ve slaved to make countless inventions for your business, put up with your constant abuse, risked my life for things that would just take a second for you to do! And what do I get? You tell me! Blackhat-”I-I got you off grid, funded your work, gave you a new identity-”  Flug-”As your “worthless minion”?  Blackhat- “I only say that cause I’m suppose to be a VILLAIN! That’s how it works. If I was all encouraging and supportive, you’d have become a big shot and leave! What am I suppose to do!? Pat you on the back, give you a hug, tell you “You’re great”?  Flug- “I just wanted to make you proud”.

Blackhat-…Flug-

Flug-”But I can’t but not because you’re a villain, but because you’re you. You can’t ever give me what I want, you can’t see anyone’s value beyond what they can do for you. And I don’t need it. I never needed it. I never needed anyone to make proud! Not my parents, not Goldheart, not Cecilia, not anyone and certainly NOT YOU! I! AM. DONE!” 

Grabs his bag and throws it, showing his face, filled with anger and tears.  Flug-takes a deep breath. “Goodbye Jefecito.” Pulls out a teleportation device.  Blackhat-”Flug Wait”-Flug’s gone. Blackhat picks up the bag on the floor, staring at it blankly.  The End.

[paper-gold-theories]

Imagine that, goldheart wants to end villainy forever for Dr flug.

Villainous Headcanon: Origin Story

I'm actually working on this fanfic idea about Flug and GoldHeart's possible friendship and origin story of how they became Arch-Enemies and how GoldHeart became obsessed with ending villainy forever (Will link it here once it's done)

Here's a preview of the end:

GoldHeart attempts to redeem Flug multiple times in the past but failed.

So he came to a conclusion, if Flug won't choose to become good, then he will just not give him a choice and end villainy forever.

[virtuouswhitehatorganization]

Miss Heed: The Walking Deconstruction Of Defect For Love

I realized that Miss Heed's turn to being a heroine is based on the trope: Defecting For Love. You now that trope where someone on the bad guy side switches side because they fell for a hero. Usually it's seen as a case of love redeems, but in the case of Miss Heed it's a twisted version of it because she never morally changed but just changed her image to fit in.

While deconstruction is an often misused term, I do think it's good to use it here because people don't show always the ramifications of turning to the other side. One of them is what would happen if they left the other side and had to abandoned the friends they had. And again her being selfish person she is, left behind her only friend, Flug, after stealing his formula and breaking his heart in the process. Her switch shows again it's not done out of selflessness but self-gain because she sees Flug as someone she likes but not bragging rights level like Goldheart. In other words, she wanted to be popular and loved by the greatest superhero at the expense of her friendship.

Another point to how bad this can be if someone changed to the hero side but didn't change morally is that she still keeps morals that contradict her hero status. The most obvious is her brainwashing people to do her bidding. Although at first she was brainwashing villains which people could tolerate, but then she was brainwashing heroes and people still looked away. Again showing how morally this could hinder actual heroism if they are doing villainous acts and using their own allies to do so.

Another thing that is often consider what if their object of affection doesn't return their love and they still are trying to pine a relationship with them. Many examples of defecting for love have their object of love return their feelings, but it shows mostly that Goldheart practically doesn't and it implies that Miss Heed is wasting all her time on trying to love him when he won't ever (reasons go from sexuality to just plain finding hr annoying).

And at the end of "Heedous Heart", we still see her deluded in her fantasy about Goldheart coming to get her even when it's obvious he won't. And again it shows how Miss Heed is really at her core someone who cares more about achieving the object of her affections (and the perks of heroism) without really being a heroine. She really is an example of the corrupt hero society in Villainous and how it rewards so-called defectors who really are only doing it for selfish means. At the core of it, Miss Heed wants a self-centered love based on validating herself instead of actually feeling anything deep for Goldheart which will inevitably end in tragedy when she finally figures out he will never love her and she gave up everything for nothing (especially a true romance with Flug).

What are your thoughts on the books or the secret messages?

I'm guessing you meant with Villainous, since Helluva nor Hazbin have those books xP, but...really nothing. Flug's journal seems to be a bit better than the activity/coloring book, but even then...meh. It's just the same cryptic messages about how evil BH is or not to trust this person or oh I wonder where this character went and all that crap.

There's this weird poem thing that has the "seven will bind with light" and all that...that was just so over the top; it made me laugh. I'm sorry. I dont wanna be mean, but I'm just telling the truth. It's so dissonant with the tone of the show that it's just so cartoony. It sounded like a priest on meth. Maybe that's the point? X3 Plus, it looks like it alludes to seven heroes, but like they're actually evil (maybe? It's just a "guess," but wouldn't be a shock if that's the case.) In the end, I think BH wins anyway because heaven forbid BH loses even once.

Honestly, the only time I actually got annoyed is the whole "Goldheart is not what he seems" message. Like.....Alan......you've only shown him in a negative light. What are you even talking about??? Unless this is a subversion, and he's actually a good guy? That would be nice. I would love to see a genuine good guy in this show rather than just more...whatever they are. Also, him possibly killing villains (since he wants all villainy defeated) is kinda fair. BH kills heroes, so why not have a hero do the same for villains? Kinda like a Punisher anti-hero.

This just makes me think that Alan does not know the difference between "villain" and "antagonist." Yes, there is a difference.
