I'm not even sure what this trope is supposed to be. The best I can figure out from the description is, "Unselfish traitor," but the title doesn't seem to connect to that (unless it's a reference to something I don't know). Also, it seems a bit too broad to be a trope, as if it's based on the assumption that anyone who a main character could ever call a traitor must be primarily selfish, and that those who aren't are some big exception (or, the description seems to imply, badly written - though, I'd think the opposite to be true - it's more difficult to write a real betrayal and make the reader sympathetic to both sides than to channel the audience into hating someone.)

In any case, this doesn't seem to be clear. And from the discussion page, I'm not the only one with an issue figuring this out. Thoughts?

I made this Idolized Julius Kingsley icon back when Akito first came out, and now that the crossover is actually happening, I don't care.

No interest for over half a year, so closing.
