I was going to write this on my personal blog, but I'm too lazy right now to switch accounts;-
Reflecting whilst listening to the backing tracks of John Simm's Master {Doctor Who}, it occurred to me that it's rare that a typical hero or 'good guy' becomes an interest for me. Or rather, there's affection and an acknowledgement like 'you got some good morals bro, I'm rooting for you'.
But what I really, really love - it's a well written villain. Anti-heroes or villains that find their redemption are all good flavors too - but it's those moments where the good guys think they've finally won, all that suffering and loss of life wasn't for waste. And then the villain-type turns around with something you absolutely didn't see coming, showing their qualities of intelligence and ingenuity, cunning and ruthlessness. A drive and a desire to come out on top no matter the cost.
Whether the tragic backstory is a part of it or not - it's those villain types that would strike a match to watch the world burn from the center of it all, the slight touch of madness on the side. From a fictional and a literary sense, it's absolutely fascinating and gives me chills every single time.

You know. Sorry for another sporadic unprompted post about that friend who has caused me so much trauma in the past year. But I remember this one time his old high school friend I met once, he's really nice I liked him a lot. Cool guy. But he lives far away so they don't meet up a lot but they text. One time he sent this friend some pictures of us that were taken at a cooking class that he'd been bothering me into going to despite that it was all the way in Boston, there was a lot of walking to get to it, etc. And I was like constantly feeling sick and run down and exhausted from having Covid recently. He texted his friends those pictures of the two of us and his friend asked "Are you and Diana dating lol" like pretty innocently but honestly curious.
And he just replied "Are you fucking high" and he showed me and told me about it. Like. Like it was uncomfortable for HIM to be asked that.
Like his response isn't SUPER INSULTING TO ME.
