Being evil doesn't mean negative emotions 24/7 against everything and everyone, except in [[Complete Monster|particular cases]]. Even evil characters (and real people) can feel and show love. Often, that love is [[Victim Falls For Rapist|twisted]], [[Love Makes You Evil|a cause]] [[Roaring Rampage of Revenge|for villainy]], or [[Was It All a Lie?|an act]]. Sometimes, though, a work can show an evil character's love as genuine and deep. This often serves to [[Character Development|humanize]] the character, to give the hero doubts about fighting him/her, or even to provide a weakness for the hero to exploit.
