Who is the best turncoat character? (Round 2)

A tournament for characters who change allegiances and/or have a redemption or corruption arc during their stories

PROPAGANDA:

Warren Kepler- Where do I even start? In a show where villains would regularly switch sides like clownfish once a new big bad was introduced, Kepler stuck to his guns 'til the end. Yet, when faced with the true bigger picture and its implications, he decided to abandon his superiors! Even as it spelled certain death for him! My man really decided to screw over Cutters' and Pryce's plan, yet did it at a moment no one but his worst enemy would know of his changed allegiance. Kepler lost everything in the name of the bigger picture he thought he was working towards, but he was willing to change at the moment it mattered the most. Your honour I love him, he is such a bastard.

Petey the Cat- Dav Pilkey based Petey on himself, saying "because of my ADHD, I was always getting in trouble, and I began to think I must just be a bad person." Dav's mother helped him when he felt like this, but Petey had no one after his father left and his mother passed...until his little clone turned out not to be the heartless villain he expected. Now, papa-hood has changed his heart. :)

guys can we all make isatsonas and it represent our place in our lil fandom i think that would be so cute and silly and fun

Okay but like

In the lost pages of Journal 3 Ford mentions Bill disappearing for weeks or months at a time, which is kinda interesting to me

There are two ways we could interpret this.

1, is that these gaps in conversation were deliberate manipulation tactics planned by Bill. To leave long enough for Ford to feel worried and want him back. This does backfire a little when Ford has that jealousy outburst and accuses Bill of having other people to inspire. (Which is like. Ford are you hearing yourself-)

But ultimately the absences Bill leaves does more harm than good for Bill’s plans. I think if he was around MORE then Ford would’ve definitely become WAYYY more attached to him

Which is why there’s a second interpretation I have that I really like

2, the idea that Bill just. Lost track of time a lot between being Ford’s muse and doing other shit in the nightmare dimension. For one thing, Bill is canonically millions of years old in the context of Earth. He’s lived through so much time that it would be understandable if he didn’t quite grasp how much time he spent away from Ford. In the grand scheme of things Ford was only a blip in time compared to everything Bill lived through, what’s a few weeks amongst eternity?

Not to mention the Book of Bill confirms that Bill canonically dissociates, and it’s very common to lose chunks of time with dissociation. What if he dipped out of his consciousness in the times where he wasn’t with Ford? We don’t have any idea what Bill was doing between Ford visits. It’s so interesting to speculate

What if Bill still thought Ford was okay with him because he didn’t realize how long he was gone?

WHAT THIS IS SO CUTE?!

Just some kids having fun
