The Walking Dead: Fandub/Final Season
jtva for Marlon
Personality: At first, Marlon seems like a fair and good-hearted leader, rescuing Clementine and Alvin Jr. and taking them in. However, he is paranoid, indecisive and somewhat cowardly. While not shying away from personal combat, he is extremely paranoid about his group's safety, a feeling which only increases after Marlon is forced to give up Sophie and Minerva to a raider group, going as far as establishing a small perimeter around the Boarding School and refusing to have his group venture out of it, even when faced with a food shortage. He also continuously pulled back this perimeter, until it only encompassed a few patches of wood around the school. His position as leader stresses him greatly, resulting in him lashing out against anyone who criticizes his leadership, culminating in him accidentally killing Brody in a fit of rage when she was about to reveal that Marlon planned on giving Clementine and AJ to the raiders if they came back. Panicking, he attempts to pin the murder on Clementine after locking her in with a soon-to-be-reanimated Brody, whereupon his true nature is finally revealed to the group. Despite this, Marlon is not fundamentally a bad person, as he is wreaked by guilt over giving up Sophie and Minerva to save the rest of his group and is genuinely horrified when he accidentally kills Brody. If Clementine attempts to reason with him, he will come to regret his actions and will only ask to be allowed to leave the Boarding School as a bad memory.

"We saved their lives when anyone else would've kept walking! We fed them, we kept them warm! And THIS is how they thank us?! Guns being pulled and murder! Well, FUCK. THEM."
Context: Marlon was lying to the rest of the kids by saying Clementine murdered Brody in the basement. He actually killed Brody.
"I hope you know Louis didn't mean any harm back there. He's just the world's biggest dumbass. He's my best friend so I can legally call him that."
Context: Marlon apologizing to Clementine for Louis' behavior, since Louis asked Clem if she's ever killed someone she's loved.
"Violet being difficult. Why am I not surprised?"
Context: After all the children found out he killed Brody and traded the twins to raiders in exchange for their safety, Clementine asks for Violet's help, then Violet threatens Marlon with her cleaver.
