chel1395 picked General Tilney (Northanger Abbey):
I wanted to wring his neck when he turned Catherine from the house. He could have gotten her killed sending her out on her own in the middle of the night.

kateliness2 picked Willoughby (Sense and Sensibility):
Hmmm. I'm not sure... I think I actually like some of these people, especially Isabella and Mr. Elton. They humor me. Is is wrong to like villains? ;)

chel1395 picked General Tilney (Northanger Abbey):
Jesterlady, not all of these people are villains in the traditional sense, which is why I put "villain" in quotation marks. "Naughty people" just didn't sound as cool. :D

I knew from the very beginning that Fanny and Edward belonged together, but Mary got in the way!

Echoes picked Mr. Elton (Emma):
I agree with kateliness3. I DO like some of the people on the list, e.g: Willoughby. (Well, at least one!) And no, o don't think it's wrong to like villians. Their the one's that make things interesting, and without them, there wouldn't be any plot!!

peteandco picked Willoughby (Sense and Sensibility):
I picked Willougby for all the bad he made to Marianne, Brandon and his ward . He plays with peaople, and his dispise for Brandon show that he like to take prize with someone else failures.
The fact that he loved Marianne and regrets what he did to her doesn't change anything to me , i can't forgive him .

Mr Elton is also despicable, even though he's not dangerous .

Mary Crawford will figure the second pick . she's manipulating everyone- except Fanny, who is prevent against her, maybe thatns to her jealousy.

lisa94 picked General Tilney (Northanger Abbey):
I don't really despise Willoughby. He really loved Marianne but was afraid of poverty. Judging by his speach to Elinor, when Marianne was sick, he regretted that decision. But Marianne was probably right, that had he married her instead he would grow to regret that in time as well, after running out of money and credit.
