Villainous: Dr Horrible’s Sing Along Blog (How I Imagine Dr Flug and GoldHeart’s Rivalry)

Drew this sketch. I feel like the Villainous is somewhat similar or based on Dr Horrible’s Sing Along Blog. Both of them have worlds which are not black and white. Where hero’s do good things but have terrible personalities and villains do bad things but have nice personalities. (Will expand this theory in later posts).

Anyways, I drew this because Dr Flug and GoldHeart seems to have a similar appearance as Dr Horrible and Captain Hammer. GoldHeart with his brown hair and yellow logo and Flug with his goggles.

They probably have somewhat of a similar rivalry, an evil scientist, trying to one-up a strong hero who does good but does not have a good personality.

In the comic that I based my drawing off “Best Friends Forever” Dr Horrible and Captain Hammer was zap by a friendship ray which hypnotises them into liking each other, making them think they are best friends.

Villainous Headcanon

It would be hilarious if Villainous season final was Dr Flug and GoldHeart getting sprayed by Miss Heed’s perfume and got themselves in a similar situation both of them thinking that they are best friends and started to hang out with each other and work together.

The public, heroes, villains, and the media loses their minds over their friendship.

P.E.A.C.E. will bring out their PR team and their other heroes, trying to stop them from hanging out to prevent GoldHeart ruining his and P.E.A.C.E. reputation by hanging out with a villain and his former arch-nemesis.

Then GoldHeart is like “No! He’s my best friend I don’t care about my reputation or anyone else.”

Demencia and 5.0.5 would probably try to save Flug before Black Hat beats up Flug and GoldHeart into a pulp due to his frustration and anger over the whole friendship situation which he finds repulsing.

Somehow it ended up with Demencia and 5.0.5 ironically, having to work with P.E.A.C.E, to have Flug and GoldHeart stop working together and becoming friends. The whole situation makes Black Hat burst into flames in anger.

Dr Flug and GoldHeart Fanfic: Catch-Up

Summary:

Flug is curious to see what his Arch-Nemesis has been up to and goes to GoldHeart’s InstaFeed account.

Flug accidentally clicks “Add Friend”, but before he could retract it, GoldHeart shocking accepts his Friend Request and Adds him back.

———————

Made a this fic due to a random idea which unexpectedly turned into a character analysis on Flug on GoldHeart’s personalities, relationship and dynamic. Lol

Headcanon:

Both of them are planners who are quite similar and thinking and actions.

Their Arch-Nemesis dynamic involves planning, knowing or predicting each other’s moves.

Both of them are we’re able to get along and have a close relationship before their fall-out and they became Arch-Enemies.

Hero Flug AU (Team-Up)

(Hero Flug AU Summary: Flug didn’t manage to escape on an ominous aircraft after his battle with GoldHeart and work for BlackHat. GoldHeart convinces him to “reform” and become a Hero)

Fan Art Inspired by: Avenging Spider-Man #9

I imagine this is how it would look like when Flug and GoldHeart work together in the Hero Flug AU or if they ever team up together to take down a bigger threat.

GoldHeart is covering Flug, acting like a shield while being shot at and yelling out “P.E.A.C.E. OUT VILLAINS, I’M BULLETPROOF !!”.

While Flug trying is to shoot the enemies back and send an army of planes to attack them.

Hero Flug AU (A Jealous Heed)

(Hero Flug AU Summary: Flug didn’t manage to escape on an ominous aircraft after his battle with GoldHeart and work for BlackHat. GoldHeart convinces him to “reform” and become a Hero)

(Note: GoldHeart’s SuperHero club is Golden Rule)

Flug is supposed to help GoldHeart in his plan to end villainy forever. In doing so, he discovered that Miss Heed was the one who stole his thesis and formula claiming it as her own and confronted her for it.

GoldHeart believed Flug over Miss Heed because he also suspected this a long time ago because Miss Heed didn’t look like she understood “her” thesis from time to time when people asked her about it, took a considerably long time in upgrading the formula, and even had to request a team of scientist to help her in things she should basically know the fundamentals of but doesn’t.

But GoldHeart kept her in his team, Golden Rule, because she was the best source in developing the formula. But know that he knows the truth, he wants to kick her off the team because he doesn’t need her anymore because he has Flug.

Flug does not condone Miss Heed’s actions but he but for some reason can’t seem to hate her despite her using him and stealing from him. Maybe because he relates to her and understands her loneliness and need for attention. So he vouches for her saying that Miss Heed has the most experience in testing out the formula and is still a valuable asset that should remain in Golden Rule.

GoldHeart notes that Flug is more forgiving and merciful than most heroes (himself included) to someone who has betrayed him and used him for her own gain. Flug said that he has no ill will against her and just wants to have his work given credit when due.

GoldHeart, on the other hand, does not want to keep Heed on the team, but reluctantly agrees to Flug’s compromise just to prove that he values Flug’s opinion, but will try to find a way to get rid of her later on.

So GoldHeart makes the hard decision. Flug gets the credit, money, and fame for his thesis (among P.E.A.C.E. but not the public because the project is top secret) and continues to upgrade the formula to his specifications, while Heed continues to test out the formula among the public and get data, but if she does not get hit the targets and expectations, set for her, she will be kicked out of Golden Rule.

Flug basically completed what Miss Heed was planning to do in 2 years in the span of 2 days.

(Note: GR/GH stands for Golden Rule of GoldHeart.)

Miss Heed blames Flug for her demotion. Even though she basically stole his thesis in the first place and is the sole reason why she is still in GoldHeart’s superhero club.

Hero Flug AU (Heart-Bots)

(Hero Flug AU Summary: Flug didn’t manage to escape on an ominous aircraft after his battle with GoldHeart and work for BlackHat. GoldHeart convinces him to “reform” and become a Hero)

I headcanon in Villainous that BlackHat requested Flug to design the HatBot-Lers to feel emotional and physical pain, like humans so that he can get satisfaction when he feels like torturing them. While HatBots-Sentinel are more durable and appear to not feel pain because they act as guards, they have a somewhat sadistic personality so that BlackHat would get some entertainment watching them torture or beat up their victims.

In the Hero Flug AU, GoldHeart prefers Flug to create robots which are emotionless, obedient and do their jobs without question (like a normal robot). So the Heart-Bots (despite the name) are emotionless, soulless, lack of personality, and have one permanent facial expression on their face.

They also have less sharp features (e.g. claws) to make them look less evil and are themed in GoldHeart/Golden Rule colours and designs.

Hero Flug AU (The Plane at the Side of the Building)

(Hero Flug AU Summary: Flug didn’t manage to escape on an ominous aircraft after his battle with GoldHeart and work for BlackHat. GoldHeart convinces him to “reform” and become a Hero)

GoldHeart basically carried Flug’s plane and shoved it into the side of the Heart Dome of his building, while Flug went out for a meeting.

Here are the reasons why he did it:

_______________________________________________________________

Reason 1: Pettiness / Bragging Rights

It is universally known in the Heroic community that Heroes who have redeemed their Villains, (especially their Arch-Nemesis) will have eternal bragging rights forever.

So GoldHeart, placed Flug’s plane at the side of the Heart Dome of his building as a trophy to show off to the public that he redeemed his former Arch-Nemesis. And just out of sheer pettiness to get under Flug’s skin that he has the bragging rights.

_______________________________________________________________

Reason 2: Observation

Flug is a newly “redeemed” Villain in a high position in the Hero world, so living together would help GoldHeart keep an eye on him for the time being.

_______________________________________________________________

Reason 3: Good Company

GoldHeart genuinely enjoys Flug’s company. Even when they we’re Arch- Nemesis it was always fun to banter, share quips and match wits with someone he considers his level.

A lot of Heroes find GoldHeart intimidating due to his high power and position in P.E.A.C.E. and the Hero community, so they rarely joke around with him.

Due to Flug and GoldHeart relationship as Arch-Nemesis, GoldHeart is not pressured to put on a facade around Flug like he does with the media or the press. (Flug doesn’t fall it that anyway). So GoldHeart finds it easy speak his mind, banter, and exchange sassy remarks with Flug, without the moral obligation and pressure of having him have to like him.

So now that they are allies their relationship can only go upwards cause already fought and even tried to kill each other in as Arch-Nemesis, so it can’t get strained or any get any lower than that.

_______________________________________________________________

Reason 4: Flug’s Current Living Condition

GoldHeart offered Flug to live in the Golden Rule Building in his penthouse or at least one of the guest bedrooms because his lab is going to be built there.

But Flug declined saying that he is more comfortable living in his broken down plane in P.E.A.C.E. Headquarters’ aircraft hanger and it would be a hassle moving all his sensitive equipment and personal belongings out of the plane.

Besides, the Golden Rule Building is only around 7 mins driving distance from P.E.A.C.E. Headquarters and there is a chuffer that drives him back and forth. (Note: It is based on the distance between the Empire State Building and The UN HQ)

GoldHeart can’t have his reputable scientist and Former Arch-Nemesis living like that.

~~~~~~

GoldHeart: Flug, you are the equivalent of a hobo living in a trailer, in a parking lot. Don’t be stubborn. We have a swimming pool and a bowling alley in the Golden Rule Building.

Dr. Flug: Don’t compare my state-of-the-art plane to a trailer, GoldHeart! Besides, it wouldn’t have been broken if you didn’t destroy the engine!

GoldHeart: Oh come on Flug, that was necessary, all is fair in love-and-war. Besides, you were headed towards a large, ominous hat-shaped cloud and I wouldn’t be able to catch you.

GoldHeart: Anyways, don’t change the subject, we even have an indoor movie theater so you can watch that show that you like. What was it called…? “Codigo Guacamole”? (Code Guacamole)

Dr. Flug: IT’S PRONOUNCED “CODIGO GUAJOLOTE”!! (CODE TURKEY)

GoldHeart: Whatever. Anyways we also have…

(That’s how their convo basically went)

~~~~~~

___________________________________________

So anyways, GoldHeart was quite stubborn and persistent with the issue and this is how it lead to this situation…

Dr.Flug and GoldHeart Banter

—

I kinda imagine this scenario happening while Flug and GoldHeart were both just chilling and eating food, with Flug casually dropping that he knew GoldHeart’s secret identity, (if he didn’t know it beforehand).

—

GoldHeart smirks: You know you’ve got a lot of nerve… for a nerd.

Flug, shrugs: I may be a nerd, but at least I’m not a dollop-head.

GoldHeart: There is no such word.

Flug: It’s idiomatic.

GoldHeart, confused: It’s what?

Flug: You need to be more in touch with people…

GoldHeart, shakes his head: Describe dollop-head.

Flug: In two words?

GoldHeart: Yes

Flug, smirks: Herbert Leth

GoldHeart: *spits out drink*

Hero Flug AU (The Art of Media Manipulation)

(Hero Flug AU Summary: Flug didn’t manage to escape on an ominous aircraft after his battle with GoldHeart and work for BlackHat. GoldHeart convinces him to “reform” and become a Hero)

Inspired Songs: Razzle Dazzle & We Both Reached for the Gun (Chicago the Musical)

Flug and GoldHeart came up with a ridiculous-made-up Villain Origin Story for Flug to make him appear more sympathetic and understandable to the media and public so that he can be accepted as a Hero.

GoldHeart is said to be the best superhero because he knows how to make himself the “good guy” in every situation. He believes as long as you control the media and have them on your side, you can never lose.

Flug knows GoldHeart has manipulated the media to make himself and heroes more favourable to the public and villains to be condemned in every situation, but seeing it first hand is an insane and almost surreal experience.

The media is believing and soaking every little thing GoldHeart is saying like a sponge, no matter how ridiculous. GoldHeart’s charismatic words and charming personality was able to make Flug’s past Villainous actions and motives seem so “perfectly understandable”, “comprehensible”, “not a bit reprehensible” and appear “so defensible”.

Flug can’t believe anyone was buying this nonsense.

(How can they see the truth with Gold in their eyes ~)

In the end, GoldHeart is able to convince the media and the public that the best way for Flug to “atone for his crimes” and “redeem himself”, is to give back to the community by becoming a Hero and GoldHeart will supervise him to make sure that he is on the “right path”.

Saw this animation by Jelipherr on YouTube.

Apparently Miss Heed kidnapped and tied up Dr. Flug and GoldHeart and forced them to play spin the bottle with her in jail.

Both of them DO NOT LOOK HAPPY to participate.🤣🤣🤣

Villainous Theory: The Oldest Trick in The Book

(Spoilers for those who have not read Chapter 1-14 of The Risky Heist.)

Some villain rules I noticed being played out in The Risky Heist is that Porccini is a villain that wants to be a hero which he believes is the new version of villainy.

How he is able to do so is to come up with a plan to capture all the amateur villains, which involves relying on his skills as a professional villain and using a mistake villains usually make to use amateur villains as bounty hunters and lure them to capture Miss Heed in order to benefit himself, the “hero”.

Flug mentions in The Missing Cases of Park Orientation Video, is that having bounty hunters go crazy for money and do the work for you is a plan he would prefer to avoid as although it will have some benefits, it will most likely lead to unpredictable problems and their failures gives heroes time to prepare for the final confrontation and says that it would be better for a villain to use a trained army.

Black Hat also mentions that you can appeal to the emotions of a stupid hero as a strategy for a villain is to gain the trust of the hero so you can betray them later. (Rule 104)

This is what Porccini had plan and what had happened. He enticed a bunch of amateur villains to hunt down Miss Heed with a promise of a big cash reward. During the heist while all the amateur villains were causing chaos due to several failures in attempting to get to Miss Heed first leading to the King Casino’s casino being destroyed and him losing his gambling business operating licence because of the destruction, the chaos also gives Porccini time to contact Captain Estrada to arrest the villains and his men (or his own armies) to do a clean up and eliminate Miss Valdoom, who was not supposed to be involved in a heist for amateur villains (though I theorized she is not really dead).

Turns out Porccini, a trusted Villain, was just using his villain status and setting this whole thing up in order to make a deal with P.E.A.C.E. to help him take down King Cassino and give him the credit so that he can become a hero.

Additionally, despite Iluminarrow noticing the red flags throughout the heist such as Porcini hiring multiple villains for the job without telling them and Miss Valdoom saying that Porcini is a non-mind controlled Miss Heed simp (although that was proven false later on) she still chooses to go back and warn him of having a double agent he employed (with of possibly of getting rewarded to pay for her rent for it of course) because she i respects and looks up to Porcini as the most powerful mafia boss in the city. Partially her make judgements based on emotions (and it’s also impossible to believe that a powerful high ranking villain is working for the heroes). Hence, Porcini also successfully implementing the Rule 104: gain the trust of the hero so you can betray them later, being acted.

Porcini’s plan was good and even though Iluminarrow, Mawrawsite and Humiko managed to escape at first, he would succeeded after he got the police to bring those to to them if he just kept his mouth shut.

Which, I theorized that if he did King Cassino would have killed Humiko for lying to him and wasting his time. And afterwards Porcini would have probably killed Iluminarrow and Mawrawsite making sure that no one aside from P.E.A.C.E. knows about his plan and he was able to become a hero by exposing King Casino as a villain.

Ironically, Porocini’s downfall is also making an amateur villain mistake of monologuing about his evil “heroic” plan, which gives time for their friends to rescue them, leading to King Casino finding out and P.E.A.C.E. betryaing him because of this.

Because of Iluminarrow successfully able to execute her plan of tricking Porcini by executing Rule 72: Hide your true intentions until you find the right time to strike.

Another irony is that despite P.E.A.C.E, being a “hero” organisation, they made a smart villain move by betraying Porccini only after he is no longer useful to their plan and also rule doing Rule 104 of gaining the trust of the hero so you can betray them later.

Flug mentioned in The Guide for an Evil Conquest Orientation Video that villains should only betray any alliance they made only if they know that the former alliance won’t betray them.

Even though Porccini saw that the police were arresting his men and were going to arrest him. He’s obsession of wanting to become a hero still made him carry forward in directing his anger towards killing Iluminarrow, Mawrawsite, and Humiko.

Bonus Rule:

Porcini also acts Rule 532, which is, a high caliber villain doesn’t get into direct combat unless the situation calls for it.

Throughout The Risky Heist, Porccini only sends out his men to do the job, however he got into direct combat when he had to face his enemy, against King Casino and snapped and had to fight Iluminarrow, Mawrawsite, and Humiko and that one police officer when he snapped because his plan was failing.
