Application for Dr. Horrible from Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog

[everythinguever]

((How do we not have a Dr. Horrible yet? I've looked a dozen times, and I'm still convinced I'm just missing his name somehow.))He was the youngest member of the illustrious Evil League of Evil. He was possibly the most feared supervillain in the world, next to Bad Horse, or course. (At least until the novelty wore off.) He was a great mad

Well, here's an obvious nut-case, to use the technical term. I watch him fill out the application and if he isn't a textbook case for megalomania, I'll eat the book. I lean against a pillar. "Do tell," I say, taking out a chocolate bar, "why is it you refuse to answer question 5b?"

"Because it's a joke!" he exclaimed. "I mean, the whole application is a joke, but that one..." It was pretty clear that the question made him irrationally angry. "Love is...for small-minded people who spend their days...mooning over girls they met in...laundromats! You know, instead of going out and doing great things! Important things!"

Yes, he was well rid of the affliction. Honest.

I raise an eyebrow at him. "I see," I say coldly. "And, I suppose you would consider reforming the world into your own image more 'important'?" I ask.

Billy folded his arms and replied, equally as cold, "Yes. Yes, I would."

Well, a supervillain. This was new. And one who seemed less than confident at some point. "That's all right, this place gets to some of us quicker than it does others, I suppose." This was more or less in response to his answer to 5c.

He just snorted. "How did I get here anyway? Some kind of teleportation ray?" He tried to asked as though he couldn't really care less, but he was intrigued in spite of himself. His trans-matter ray didn't work properly.

Zel shrugged. "Those of us who came here willingly used something called a Portkey. Apart from that I couldn't say. It's possible, I suppose - these people have a spell for everything."

[everythinguever]

Spells? "Oh, magic," he said dismissively. "I'm a mad scientist. I don't really have the time or patience for magic."

"Actually, the holes in Swiss cheese is caused by carbon dioxide."

[everythinguever]

"Yes, I know," he scorned. "Didn't I say I know? I know, all right. It was a joke. You have heard of jokes, right?"

[gourmetchairman]

"With all sorts of characters coming in here, one can hardly tell."

[everythinguever]

Billy frowned, debated for a moment whether to continue being confrontational, and finally shrugged. "I guess I can understand that," he allowed.

"You'd have to kill yourself first, Billy."

[[In case you don't know, he has shinigami eyes, lets you see a person's name and lifespan.]]

[everythinguever]

He glanced around uneasily, almost expecting to see the Candid Camera crew, or maybe Captain Hammer bursting through a wall to pummel (not that he'd let that happen anymore). "Kill myself over what?" he asked dully. "And how do you know my name?"

[ringo_raver]

"You know, to come back from the dead and start your own religion. And I can see your name. That's what I do. I see names, write them down, and claim their lifespan as my own."

[everythinguever]

"Oh...yeah, I wouldn't actually want to die..." He was uncertain, to put it mildly. But he was also a scientist, and curiosity always won out in the end. "You can do that? Really?"

[omg_sunflora]

"Freeze? Like ice?" Sunflora was getting worried.

[everythinguever]

Why did everyone think his Freeze Ray used ice? It's not like it was called an Ice Ray or something. Then, he could understand. And he'd be stupid to have called it that. "No. Not ice." He sighed heavily. "It stops time."
