what if shade was
like
the most cheery villain ever
list of things:
-chair with really, really tall back
-garfield plush
-big evil-looking room
-actively supports the heroes
-alligator pit
-actually just a farmer or unpopular streamer in his free time instead of doing villain stuff
-loves corn
-sounds angry when he loses but instead of yelling angry words he says something nice, like "I HOPE YOU HAVE A NICE DAY!"
-likes to give people a good, fair fight
-genuinely kinda nice
*heroes kick down the massive doors to shade's evil room*
*they see shade in his really tall evil chair, facing the wall*
hero one: "WE'RE HERE TO PUT AN END TO YOUR TERROR, SHADE!"
*shade slowly turns the chair around, revealing an alligator chilling on his lap, hugging the garfield plush*
shade: "hello, my name is shade, and welcome to my quote-unquote evil room!"
hero two: "uh..."
shade: "would you like a hot cup of coffee? do you wanna, like, pet billy?"
hero one and two: "we're here to kill you."
shade: "hooray! good for you!"
*surprisingly big alligator jumps out of alligator pit*
shade: "molly, say hi to the visitors!"
*alligator makes (happy / kind) gestures and sounds towards the heroes*
shade: "this is molly."; i wish i could draw this. or animate it. i wish i could animate at all ðŸ˜
