Shucks, I even considered emailing TVD creators and asking them if I can provide Damon some much-needed companionship. How sad that none of his cast understands him whereas so many of us do! :)Athirahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03366654538383603004noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5566869117228903343.post-32783287289396186932010-09-29T12:38:11.116-06:002010-09-29T12:38:11.116-06:00T-Bag is definitely creepy!

Partly because we are going to be reading that part of The Deathly Hollows tonight, and I know I will cry--again.<br />Rowling does similarly with Draco Malfoy, though you don't like him, he does dredge up compassion in the later books, even Kreacher.<br /><br />I also think about Boromir from Lord of the Rings...he is amongst the "good guys" but he comes across villain-ish...certainly gray.<br /><br />~LAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5566869117228903343.post-49970499876790183382010-09-28T10:12:20.136-06:002010-09-28T10:12:20.136-06:00I'll have to second Sylar, and also Snape as m...I'll have to second Sylar, and also Snape as mentioned above in the comments. But I think my favorite gray villain is Lex from Smallville.

I've always had a thing for Mr. Preston from Wives and Daughters, don't ask, and Sileph from Enna Burning. I also totally agree with you on Frankenstein's monster and, of course, you know how I feel about Damon and Sylar. And, yes, there are villains who are all black.Techno Grandmahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12426619451883902191noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5566869117228903343.post-13986146420086588032010-09-28T08:57:27.450-06:002010-09-28T08:57:27.450-06:00What a fun post!

If only Lily had not married James, if only he had not been sorted into Slytherin, if only he had not been so interested in the dark arts, he would be so different. I think he's one of the most round characters in any story. Most villains or heroes are flat because they don't change. But, Snape did.<br /><br />I think Emperor Palpetine and Voldemort are pure black. I don't think circumstances would've changed who they are. I think many villains are like this. But, I think there are quite a few villains that fall into the gray area.Jenni Elysehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08403700912436098391noreply@blogger.com
