->''"Dear Die-Ary. Today I stuffed some dolls full of dead rats I put in the blender. I'm beginning to wonder if, maybe, there'' '''''really''''' ''is something wrong with me."''

* AlmostKiss: Johnny and Devi on The Date... which is [[BigLippedAlligatorMoment odd]] because it's established early on how much the former dislikes contact with others, never mind bodily fluids ([[FridgeLogic like spit swapping]]). To the [[WhatAnIdiot consternation]] of Shippers the world over, he realized that he was happy and [[MomentKiller proceeded to try and kill her]].
** To be fair, ''Devi'' was the one who started the AlmostKiss.

*** Judging by that quote and what Johnny says in the comic, it sounds like that confirms he's a repulsed asexual (and probable)[[http://www.asexuality.org/wiki/index.php?title=Nonlibidoism nonlibidoist]] or was that possibly just a way of saying it's solely a case of ParalyzingFearOfSexuality with piquerism?

* AttentionDeficitOohShiny: He attempts to commit suicide over not getting a slushie, then is distracted by soda. This sort of thing happens a lot.
* AxCrazy: Uh, yeah.
* BlackComedy: Babies're nutritious!

* TheChewToy: Squee, far more so in his spinoff. Also Wobbly Headed Bob, which is compounded by the fact he is aware of this and aware that he is powerless to stop it.
** Wobbly-Headed Bob is a [[ItsAllAboutMe self-centered]], [[StopHavingFunGuys elitist]], {{wangst}}y {{jerkass}}, so he pretty much [[UnsympatheticComedyProtagonist has it coming]], where Squee [[TheWoobie really doesn't]].
* {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: Happy Noodle Boy, also a TalkativeLoon.

* EasilyForgiven: In-universe, [[AvertedTrope fuck no]]. When anyone successfully holds onto the realisation that he's a murderer, they're always frightened and disgusted. ''Out'' of [[FanDumb universe]], well...

* FireAndBrimstoneHell: When it's not like an Earth full of small-minded assholes. (...No, wait, that's pretty much Earth anyway.)

* HypocriticalHumor: Anne Gwish. Oh so much.
** Johnny scoffs at the self-absorbed, over-dramatic residents of Hell losing their shit over trivial annoyances - then proceeds to throw his very own ''epic'' tantrum over it.

* TheMessiah: Inverted. Johnny is a conduit for the universe's negativity.
* MindScrew: Plenty.

* MoodWhiplash: [[AngstWhatAngst Holy]] ''[[MindScrew fuck]]'', [[AttentionDeficitOohShiny Nny]].

** [[LoveInterest Devi]] acts as this, too. [[MomentKiller Almost]] any interaction between them has Johnny acting much closer to sane than usual, be it the three months before she asks him out or even after [[KickTheSonOfABitch she beats the crap out of him]].

* PapaWolf: Nny [[spoiler:bludgeoning the pedophile that threatened Squee]] was probably the closest thing to a CrowningMomentOfAwesome he ever had. He even tried to teach Squee not to be afraid of such people. His method was, uh, flawed, but his intent was genuine.

* PinocchioSyndrome: Mr. Eff. This is a contrast to his counterpart, Psycho Doughboy.

* PsychopathicManChild: Oh yes.

** It's not really "better" in a moral sense, and even he himself admits it earns him no absolution. Sexual desire (and sexual climax) is physical, which makes it a "thing of the flesh," which Nny wants to eschew because he believes succumbing to that kind of temptation makes one a slave to their own body. That "Mmy" does this willingly, while supposedly ''emulating'' him, is personally offensive but not just for being ''rape''. Nny's is a guy who'd opt for murder over ''consensual'' nookie.

-->'''Tess:''' You're quoting ''TheFly''?
-->'''Nny:''' Sure, why not.

* StatusQuoIsGod: No matter what, [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin Johnny will be a homicidal maniac]]. He can have a LoveInterest, a MoralityPet, or a HeelRealization, and still be a homicidal maniac. He can [[spoiler: [[UpToEleven die, visit Hell, and come back with control of his own mind]]]] and still be a homicidal maniac. ([[PlayingWithTropes Albeit]] [[spoiler: less of one, but he still ''shot'' a "Kick Me" sign into some guy's back.]]) Now, [[SchmuckBait try explaining this to a few of the fanfic writers]].

* WalkingTheEarth: The series ends with Nny doing this. Of course, when you think about it, he probably had to. ''An Admirer, of Sorts'' implies that now that his duty as a Waste-Lock is completed, he is no longer immune to getting caught, so staying in one place for too long isn't the wisest thing for him.
* WhamEpisode: Arguably the one where [[spoiler: [[InvincibleVillain Johnny]] actually]] [[AnyoneCanDie dies]].

** This is only if consider the books as the only source canon. Other published strips feature Johnny skinning children. If anything, revulsion to rape is his only standard - and even then, [[LampshadeHanging he admits it's basically not any worse than what he does to his victims]].

-->'''[[spoiler:Johnny:]]''' My God! Are you kidding!? I've always dreamed of having super powers! This is just too much to resist! '''''[[CrowningMomentOfFunny I have head-explody!]]'''''

* WhamEpisode: Arguably the one where [[spoiler: [[BoringInvincibleVillain Johnny]] actually]] [[AnyoneCanDie dies]].

* AnyoneCanDie: Naturally, given the title of the comic. [[spoiler: Even the [[BoringInvincibleVillain supposedly invincible]] [[LunaticLoophole homicidal maniac]]]].

* BerserkButton: Don't ''ever'' call Johnny "wacky."
** Or, according to one of his victims who went to hell, "faggot."

-->'''Nny''': '''YOU STINK!''' Focussing on the mundane! Money! Fashion! ''Cream cheese!'' YOU'RE IN HELL AND YOU'RE TOO STUPID TO KNOW IT!
* TortureCellar: Johnny's house has a TortureCellar several storeys deep that seems to shift around and give itself extra rooms (with devices in them). Even he doesn't know how it came to be there.

* ChuckCunninghamSyndrome: The embryo in the jar that averts Johnny's first on-panel suicide attempt by informing him the commercial where the whole family gets diarrhoea is on never appears again, despite being one of the voices.

* EvenEvilHasStandards: For all the evil he performs, Johnny ''hates'' rapists and paedophiles, though this is more due to issues with physical contact.

** On the matter of Nny's sexuality, [[WordOfGod Jhonen]] had this to say: "He's a coward and I think it manifests itself in many ways. One of them being the fact that's he's disgusted with sexuality. I don't think he has a sex drive and if he does it finds its way out through other means, mainly a knife through the flesh." [[hottip:*: The interview containing this quote, on a website that is {{NSFW}}, can be found here: http://suicidegirls.com/word/Jhonen+Vasquez+invades+SuicideGirls/]]

A series of comic books by JhonenVasquez, [[HeAlsoDid the guy who did]] ''WesternAnimation/InvaderZim''. The titular Johnny (Nny for short) is a serial killer with various psychological disorders who does bizarre and often nasty things to bizarre and often nasty people. He often has long, serious, intellectual monologues about the state of society, only to end them with non-sequiturs like "Tuesday is UFO day". When not doing that, Nny likes to draw a comic strip about a deranged, foul-mouthed stick figure named "Happy Noodle Boy". His only friends (if you can call them that) are Todd "Squee" Casil, the meek kid next door whom he unintentionally scares shitless, and Nailbunny, a dead rabbit nailed to the wall who is actually Nny's voice of ''reason''.

** Actually, he seems pretty upset that anyone would want to hurt the child in question. His attempt to reassure said child unfortunately goes about as well as you would expect.

* ShoutOut: A lot of the borders contain hidden subliminal messages, and this one can be easy to miss. At the top of the page with the massacre in the taco place, it says "[[{{Alien}} LV 426]]."

* AllJustADream: After [[spoiler: Johnny's suicide and trip to Hell]], Johnny contemplates whether or not it was all just a dream...The comic is pretty clear it was real considering Johnny's haircut, newfound (relative) sanity, [[spoiler:The Moose seeming to disappear and how reality just kind of melts away as Johnny dies...]]
** Yes, but ALL of that could have been in his head, too. Remember, boys and girls, he's CRAZY!
** Explain how [[spoiler: Devi]] managed to hear a styrofoam doughboy scream over the phone.

-->'''Victim 6:''' Somebodeee! Pull this churrito out of my ass!!

-->''[[https://twitter.com/johnny_c Johnny]]'': "A man can only take so much, and being tied up and made to wear your gutted infant as a hat goes way past that. [[CrossesTheLineTwice Still, he looked ADORABLE]]."

-->''Nny'': Yes, yes, I'm the one that's been killing all those people. But I'm also the creative force behind [[DaDaComic Happy Noodle Boy]], so forgive me and shut up.

* FireAndBrimstoneHell: When it's not like an Earth full of small-minded assholes. No, wait, it's pretty much like Earth anyway.

* GoodIsBoring: Heaven is ridiculously boring to an outsider like Johnny or to the employees, who are actually the damned. This is because heaven consists of everybody sitting down in chairs doing nothing -- they're utterly content, and thus utterly unmotivated.

-->'''Nny''': I'll show you wacky! I'll show you wackeeeeee!

* KickTheSonOfABitch: Johnny's murder of Jimmy was quick and incredibly brutal. It was pretty damn deserved.
** Johnny's idea of ending a date is killing [[MoralityPet Devi]] before things between them can go south. There is a [[NoHoldsBarredBeatdown reason]] why the Fandom lauds her as "[[BadassBookworm The One Who Got Away]]."
* KnifeNut: See that image up top?

* MotiveDecay: Purposely invoked in the story and discussed by Johnny, who finds it harder and harder to remember ''why'' he kills people as the thing behind the wall and the Dough-boys gain more control over him.

* MundaneAfterlife: Heaven... is people sitting in chairs. Hell is living with all the people who go to Hell. There are actually good reasons behind this. In Heaven, the people there are truly happy, entirely contented, and thus lack the desires of living people, who spend their lives looking for happiness. Hell's pretty self-explanatory. Even Nny says that are least in life there are some nice people mixed in with all the jackasses.

* NiceShoes: Nny's boots.

* NonSequitur: After [[spoiler:horribly killing a pedophile for threatening Squee]] he informs Squee randomly at the end of his rant that it was Tuesday, "U.F.O. Day!", and runs off.

* PapaWolf: Nny [[spoiler:bludgeoning the pedophile that threatened Squee to death]] was probably the closest thing to a CrowningMomentOfAwesome he ever had.
* PoliceAreUseless
* PinocchioSyndrome: Mr. Eff.

* RapeIsASpecialKindOfEvil: Nny tortures people for the fun of it, and because he feels he has to. Finds the suffering of the ones he is killing something pleasuring and incredible... yet, he is highly disgusted with the idea of raping his victims before killing them. [[FridgeLogic How come enjoying the suffering of someone is better than enjoying forced sexual intercourse with them?]] No one really knows.

* AFormYouAreComfortableWith: Inverted. The devil assumes the form [[HotAsHell of a cheerleader]] because it's one of the things Johnny least likes.

** Yes, but ALL of that could have been in his head, too. Remember, boys and girls, he's CRAZY!!!

-->'''Tess:''' The fact that I'm here is a sign he's fucked up enough to have blurry aim!

-->'''Victim 1:''' Oh dear God!!
-->'''Victim 2:''' My eyes!! I can't see my eyes!!
-->'''Victim 3:''' Aaagh!!
-->'''Victim 4:''' Noooo!!

-->'''Victim 6:''' Somebodeee!! Pull this churrito out of my ass!!

* BerserkButton: Don't EVER call Johnny "wacky."

* BondOneLiner: an odd one in that it was directed at Squee (who wasn't the victim) and didn't really comment on the death, but was still a super badass way for Johnny to reveal himself.

-->''[[spoiler:Pedophile]] gets his head banged in with a pipe.''

* CantGetInTroubleForNuthin': {{Deconstructed}}, like ContractualImmortality: Nny will never get caught. If he's reported, the cops will never remember who he is. It doesn't matter how public his sprees are, or how many victims. Once he returns from Hell and stops being a wastelock, this ends, and he's forced to go on the run.

** Also, Devi's friend Tenna. Though to a ''MUCH'' lesser extent than [[DaDaComic Happy Noodle Boy]].

-->"Sometimes...you can cry until there's nothing wet in you. You can scream and curse to where your throat rebels and ruptures. You can pray, all you want, to whatever god you think will listen. And, still it makes no difference. It goes on, with no sign as to when it might release you. And you know that if it ever did relent...it would not be because it cared.[[spoiler:--(Written on the wall in blood before everything went black)]]"

* ChuckCunninghamSyndrome: The embryo in the jar that averts Johnny's first on-panel suicide attempt by informing him the commercial where the whole family gets diarrhea is on never appears again, despite being one of the voices.

* DoesntLikeGuns: Johnny hates to even touch guns and thinks people should only use them on themselves. The only time he used one on another person was an attempted murder-suicide (Well, the murder part was successful).
** Not entirely true. In the Carpe Noctum strips, he has no qualms with killing using a pistol.
* DoomyDoomsOfDoom: Not quite as much as ''InvaderZim'' but still noticeable.
-->''{{Satan}}'': God, I love that word-- '''Doom!'''
* DrivenToSuicide: [[spoiler:Johnny]] decides not to follow through with his intention to commit suicide it in the end and loudly proclaims his taking back control over his life. Then he ends up accidentally killing himself anyway.

** Well, the suicide doesn't. The murder part works just fine.
* EasilyForgiven: In-universe, [[AvertedTrope fook no]]. Out of [[FanDumb universe]]...
-->''Nny'': Yes, yes, I'm the one that's been killing all those people. But I'm also the creative force behind [[DADAComic Happy Noodle Boy]], so forgive me and shut up.
* EldritchAbomination: [[spoiler:The Moose, [[DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment which is definitely not a moose.]]]]
** Though, as it turns out, this creature, despite its eldritch looks & somewhat enigmatic origins, [[SubvertedTrope is actually the antithesis]] of the typical Lovecraftian monster. [[spoiler:While Eldritch critters are meant to represent the truly alien, inhuman & incomprehensible nature of the universe, the Wall Monster is just the opposite: [[TheHeartless a grotesque creation of pure, distilled Humanity]].]]

* FireAndBrimstoneHell: When it's not like Earth [[strike:with everyone overreacting]]. No, wait, it's pretty much like earth anyway.
* [[ForgetsToEat "Forgets" to Eat]]: Because by the end of the comic, a [[spoiler: somewhat vaguely sane]] Johnny is seeking complete freedom, including from his own body's needs. Mocked by [[spoiler: new head voice [[TheHedonist Reverend Meat]]]]
* FreudianExcuse: Completely averted, even for the VillainProtagonist himself (Johnny makes vague mentions of people making fun of him when he was younger, but it's never used to justify what he does).
** Nailbunny's rant about Nny formally being a great artist also qualifies as an aversion, though it's similarly vague. Vasquez intentionally left Nny's origins unwritten to avoid this.
*** We don't get the full details, but the sequel spinoff ''IFeelSick'' implies [[spoiler: that he was corrupted by the same force that created the Doughboys]].

* GoodIsBoring: Heaven is ridiculously boring to an outsider like Johnny or to the employees, who are actually the damned. This is because heaven consists of everybody sitting down in chairs doing nothing--they experience such bliss that they do not wish to do anything.

* HairAntennae: Apparently hair loss is a side effect of [[spoiler:being rejected from hell.]]

* HeadphonesEqualIsolation: Averted with Johnny. "Even with headphones, the highly sensitive asshole detecting gland functions."

* HeroicSociopath: Johnny on a good day.

* HopeSpot: Occasional; [[OneSceneWonder Edgar Vargas]] (Nny kills him anyway), [[AlmostKiss The Date]] (until Nny tries to [[MomentKiller kill Devi]]), Nny's ShutUpHannibal moment to [[spoiler: The Doughboys (he finally dies, on accident)]], Nny coming back from [[spoiler: Hell, in control ([[StatusQuoIsGod and still crazy]])]], and [[JhonenVasquez so on]].
* HotAsHell: The Devil taking the form of a horned demon doesn't scare Johnny at all. So he turns into a cute, perky cheerleader, which squicks him right out.

** Johnny scoffs at the self-absorbed, over-dramatic residents of hell losing their shit over trivial annoyances, then proceeds to throw an ''epic'' tantrum over it.
* [[IWantMyBelovedToBeHappy I want the person I 'like immensely' to no longer live in fear that I'm going to brutally murder them]]
* IdentityAmnesia: The more Nny questions the [[SanitySlippage situation]] and MotiveDecay, the more he mentions remembering [[MysteriousPast barely any of his past]] [[spoiler: to the point of wondering how he came to be in the house in the first place.]] It turns out to have been caused by [[spoiler: the Doughboys and Wall Monster holding MoreThanMindControl over him, but even with them gone it doesn't stop]].
* ImportantHaircut: Nny either sleep-shaved himself during a stupid dream, or it burned off when he [[spoiler: went to Hell]]. Either way, he's left with two Hair Antennae and the meager trade-off of [[spoiler: control and semi-sanity]].
* ImprobableWeaponUser: Nny has killed and/or maimed people with an automatic screwdriver, a live snake, a loose circular saw blade... And that's just the beginning of it.

* TheInsomniac: Nny dislikes sleeping as it further distorts his perception of reality. This means he stays awake until he loses consciousness, at which point his body usually continues doing unspeakable things of its own accord. According to his Twitter, he once woke up on the beach trying to paddle a hollowed-out corpse like a canoe.
* InterruptedSuicide: Of a different sort. In one strip Nny discusses his current attempt to commit suicide to the Doughboys. Before he goes through with it, Nailbunny tells him that a TV show he likes is on. Cut to him laughing uproariously at the TV. In Jhonen's notes in the Director's cut, he says he found the idea of someone failing to commit suicide then losing interest in it to be funny, with a strip showing a proto-Johnny trying to shoot himself with an empty gun, and then going to watch TV.
* IWillShowYouX: NNY's response to being called "[[BerserkButton Wacky]]" by a woman in a Taco [[strike: Bell]] Smell:
-->'''NNY''': I'll show you wacky! I'll show you all wackeeeeee!
** Then he disembowels everyone in the restaurant [[CutHisHeartOutWithASpoon with a spork.]]
*** Even going so far as to kill all the roaches in the kitchen.

* TheMessiah: Inverted: Johnny is a conduit for the universe's negativity.

* MoodWhiplash: [[AngstWhatAngst Holy]] ''[[MindScrew fook]]'', [[AttentionDeficitOohShiny Nny]].
* MoralityPet: Despite the repeated traumas he inadvertently inflicts on Squee, Johnny's kind (although somewhat misguided) treatment of Squee is about as close to [[PetTheDog petting the dog as he gets]].

* MotiveDecay: Purposely invoked in the story and discussed by Johnny, who finds it harder and harder to remember why he even kills people anymore as the thing behind the wall and the Dough-boys gain more control over him.

* MundaneAfterlife ''Heaven...'' is ''sitting'' in '''chairs.''' And ''Hell'' is living with all the people who go to '''Hell.''' There are actually good reasons behind this. It's explained that in heaven, the people there are truly happy. Because they're happy, they don't have the desires of living people, most of whom spend their lives looking for something to give them happiness. Hell's pretty self-explanatory. Even Nny says that are least there are some nice people mixed in with all the sad sacks on Earth.

* NonSequitur: After [[spoiler:horribly killing a pedophile for threatening Squee]] he informs Squee randomly at the end of his rant that it was Tuesday, therefor being 'U.F.O. Day', and hauls ass.
* NoodleImplements: "I've done horrifying things with salad tongs."
* NoodlePeople
* OnlySaneEmployee: Meet Nailbunny, Nny's [[WhatTheHellHero conscience ]] and [[OnlySaneMan voice of reason]]. Yes, the [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin bunny is the one Nny once nailed to a wall]].
* OnlySaneMan: Squee is probably the closest thing to "sane" that this universe is ever going to have.
** In the odd little world of [[LivingLabyrinth House 777]], [[OnlySaneMan Nailbunny]] certainly qualifies, as he attempts to keep the Doughboys from ''totally'' screwing Johnny over. His job is [[OnlySaneEmployee less than desirable]].
* PapaWolf: Nny [[spoiler: attacking the pedophile that threatened Squee]] was probably the closest thing to a CrowningMomentOfAwesome he ever had.
* PoliceAreUseless.

** It's not really "better" in a moral sense, and even he himself admits it earns him no absolution. Sexual desire (and sexual climax) is physical, which makes it a "thing of the flesh," which Nny wants to eschew because he believes succumbing to that kind of temptation makes one a slave to their own body. That "Mmy" does this willingly, while supposedly ''emulating'' him, is personally offensive but not just for being ''rape'' -- this is a guy who'd opt for murder over ''consensual'' nookie.

** The comic is still about a guy named "Johnny C." (Jhonen's middle name is given as "C.") who draws a noodle boy, and includes bonus sketches of Jhonen's early drawings of Johnny as a "noodle boy". Just saying.
*** The Johnny C. thing was so that the Noodle Boy comics could be sold individually and the signature can interpreted either way.

* ShowWithinAShow: Happy Noodle Boy is supposedly drawn by Johnny himself. As the series goes on, Noodleboy gradually starts making less and less sense, [[CreatorBreakdown reflecting the protagonist's own mental degeneration]].
** However, Happy Noodle Boy never made much sense in the first place.

* SlasherSmile: On [[{{Understatement}} occasion]]. It really wouldn't be Nny without them.

* SpinOff: The main series spun-off into ''ComicBook/{{Squee}}'', which focused on Johnny's grade school neighbor, then later into IFeelSick, which centered around a young female artist Johnny once tried to kill. IFeelSick itself was then spun-off into {{Fillerbunny}}...sorta.
* {{Squee}}: Todd makes this sound when he's scared, leading Johnny to actually think that his name was 'Squee'. Johnny also has a Squee moment when [[spoiler: after he's informed in Heaven that, while there, he can blow up a person's head by thinking about it.]]
* StalkerWithACrush: After Nny fails to kill her, Devi becomes convinced he's this, and her fear of him drives her to agoraphobia. ''JtHM'' implies she's just being paranoid, though he does show up in silhouette outside her workplace in ''IFeelSick'', so perhaps he was stalking her after all.
** Jimmy is kind of this. He's closer to Stalker With A [[FanDumb Fanatic Obsession]] than anything.

-->''Nny'': '''YOU STINK!!!!''' Focussing on the mundane! Money!! Fashion!! Cream cheese!! YOU'RE IN HELL AND YOU'RE TOO STUPID TO KNOW IT!
* TortureCellar: Johnny's house has a several stories deep TortureCellar; even he doesn't know how it came to be there.

* VomitingCop: An angel, not a cop, but valid anyways.

* WouldntHurtAChild: Pretty much the [[EvenEvilHasStandards only line Johnny won't cross]]
** This is only if consider the books as the only source canon. Other published strips feature Johnny skinning children. If anything, revulsion to rape is his only standard.
*** And even then, [[LampshadeHanging he admits it's basically not any worse than what he does to his victims]].
* YourHeadASplode: Johnny [[spoiler:briefly gains this power when he finds out that those who are in Heaven have powers that vary from person to person, though his guide tells him to refrain from the thought of doing so otherwise he'd [[SchmuckBait explode someone's head]]. He almost immediately turns this power onto a guy and blows up his head a grand total of ''three'' times--Three because his head regenerated every time. After the third time the man got fed up and does the same back to Johnny. This results in a head-explody war among all of the residents.]]
-->'''Guide:''' No! No!! Stop! STOP!! You'll ruin everything!!
-->'''[[spoiler:Johnny:]]''' My God!! Are you kidding!? I've always dreamed of having super powers!!! This is just too much to resist! [[CrowningMomentOfFunny I have head-explody!]]

* EverythingsBetterWithBunnies: Nailbunny was Johnny's only voice that tried to keep him sane.

** In the odd little world of [[LivingLabyrinth House 777]], [[VoiceOfReason Nailbunny]] certainly qualifies, as he attempts to keep the Doughboys from ''totally'' screwing Johnny over. His job is [[LizLemonJob less than desirable]].

* LizLemonJob: Meet Nailbunny, Nny's [[WhatTheHellHero conscience ]] and [[OnlySaneMan voice of reason]]. Yes, the [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin bunny is the one Nny once nailed to a wall]].

* DeadBabyComedy: They're nutritious!
-->''[[https://twitter.com/johnny_c Johnny]]'': "A man can only take so much, and being tied up and made to wear your gutted infant as a hat goes way past that. [[CrossesTheLineTwice Still, he looked ADORABLE]]."

* StatusQuoIsGod: No matter what, [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin Johnny will be a homicidal maniac]]. He can have a LoveInterest, a MoralityPet, or a HeelRealization, and still be a homicidal maniac. He can [[spoiler: [[UpToEleven die, visit Hell, and come back with control of his own mind]]]] and still be a homicidal maniac. ([[PlayingWithTropes Albeit]] [[spoiler: less of one, but he still ''[[TheArcher shot]]'' a "Kick Me" sign into some guy's back.]]) Now, [[SchmuckBait try explaining this to a few of the fanfic writers]].
