‘redemption arc’ this and ‘redemption arc’ that
wheres an arc where the hero gets morally corrupted by a villain and switches sides and becomes an even bigger threat as a result
where is my bastardization arc
Negative character development WOOOOOO
Consider - hero bastardizaton and villain redemption within the same work so that by the end they’ve entirely switched sides and roles
