Ora, if you are going to be a villain, go for upper mid-level villain.
Supervillains (Ernst Blofeld, Voldemort, the brutal dictator) are all pretty much the same. They want world domination (or the tri-state area, in the case of Heinz Doofenshmirtz), they are pontificating show-offs, and they are actually a bit boring.
Bottom level villains are usually just dim thugs (though British ones will sometimes hold long, complicated, philosophical debates) and are just there to be defeated.
But the upper mids are interesting, and usually much scarier or nastier than the super villain. Dolores Umbridge is utterly horrible (and Imelda Staunton gave a master class in acting), Bolo (Enter the Dragon) is terrifying, and Police Captain Menendez, with his polite, perfect, English, and his pencil-thin moustache, is the real danger you face in Mixambigua.
They get plenty of screen time, and, most of the time, pretty good lines, too.
A good ending to this arc! If it is Ora Zella’s villain origin story, that would mean things would not be that much different. She already has evil ideas, just without the focus and the resources.
Come on ya mellow mewscateers. Where be yours inner beeg cats? Roars and demeowanding more snacks. Real snacks that is and not these steenky overprocessed packaged poisons. Gets together and demeowand for real fishies, real cheecken, real meats, and all thems. All purr one and one purr all.
Orazuzu, the trick is to practice an innocent mien, built up a reputation as Ms. Goody Two Shoes. Once that’s established, when the adults are looking for a kitten to blame, even if the other kittens try to rat you out, the adult will say, “Oh no, not Orazuzu. She’d never do anything like that!” Of course, it doesn’t work at home if you’re an only cat. Don’t ask me how I know.
Last year for Father’s Day our (adult) daughter got me a tee shirt with a picture of of a cat reading a book called “How to Train Your Human.” When she was little she liked pretending to be a cat. She called me “Humie.”

I’m not sure which is more lethal — C4 or weapon’s grade cuteness — but I’m guessing one of those will make less of a mess … maybe?

That’s my career advice.

Beaver Lee Cleary: Hello, Ladies! What a lovely surprise!
Violet-Ifa: We’re on a cheese excursion and knew we just had to pay a visit, Bev.
Bev: I’m glad you did. I’ve been going through some of these scrolls from famous authors who have become somewhat lost in obscurity.
Agnes-Ata: Here’s one that I think was related to our own Vizier.
Bev: Yes, Pearl S. Puck. And don’t forget the travels of Jack K.
Vi: I wonder if anyone out there have any favorite authors they would like to give a shout out to.
What say you?

Depends on whether or not the last couple potential villain origin stories you’ve had didn’t actually pan out, Ora Zella. :P
