☠ for Luigi for the headcanon meme?

☠ - angry/violent headcanon

I have been mulling this around all day in my mind because I feel like I am almost at a total loss for this! It is so hard for me to imagine Luigi being angry, and especially violent. I keep thinking about what it would take to push him to that point, and I think it would genuinely take a lot.

I think Luigi is almost endlessly patient. I personally headcanon him as having a pretty good awareness of his emotional state and has a lot of emotional regulation (ironic, I know, bc he's known for his anxiety--but I think that helps him with his awareness, he's very in touch with his emotions... idk just go with it). Because of that, he can pretty easily talk himself through his anger.

However. I think, like his brother, he is incredibly protective of his loved ones and has a strong sense of justice, not necessarily for himself (self deprecating king), but for the people he is close to. So if he witnesses, for example, Mario being subjected to mistreatment beyond what Mario could reasonably handle on his own, that is what would make him lose it. I also think anger would be such an overwhelming experience for Luigi that he'd be the type to cry, which would just frustrate him more, because it's hard to defend your brother when you're trying to see through tears and speak through sobs. But he would do it anyway, because it's the right thing to do.
