Villain Pick Friday: Grant Ward (Possible Spoilers for Agent's of Shield)

This post may not be the longest but I had to pick Agent Grant Ward as the bad guy this week. If you didn't know Agent's of S.H.I.E.L.D had it's mid-season finale this week and it was nothing short of absolutely amazing. Some of you may be asking why isn't Whitehall my villain pick, or Skye's whack job daddy, well the answer to that is simple... I love Grant Ward, and he is the perfect villain in my opinion. He knows what he is and what he has done, but he is trying to do better, or is he? We don't know how true he is about his intentions and that is why I had to pick him for this weeks villain pick. 

Ward started out as this guy who was tough, cocky, and worked best alone. He was the guy who wanted to just go in and get things done. He didn't really bond with anyone right away because he was just so set in his ways, and when he started getting closer we all thought it was cute, at least I did. Then they gave him a little romance with May and that was actually pretty good, but deep down there was something for Skye, and I know I am not alone in that. He was bonding with Fitz and that was pretty good, Fitz thought of him as a friend, hell they all thought of him that way. 

We all know about Hydra and how that started, well everyone who watched Captain America and Captain America Winter Soldier knows what went down. Hydra being hidden for so long had blown my mind and when I saw Winter Soldier I was freaking out about what that meant for the show. Little did I know that Ward was going to be the traitor and been Hydra all along. Garret was Hydra and he was the one who taught Ward everything and he was so loyal to Garret more so I think than to Hydra. The point was though that Grant Ward was Hydra and he dropped Fitz-Simmons out of the plane and tried to destroy everyone. 

The thing that keeps me rooting for him? I still think he loves Skye so much and wouldn't hurt her. He has love for her so he wouldn't never directly hurt her, but he would hurt anyone else which would then hurt Skye. Ward is a little crazy and especially after the mid-season finale where he was shot by Skye more than once, makes me wonder what that means for his love for Skye. I still think there is something redeemable left in Ward, but if he hurts my man Coulson then I will just hate him forever. 

So what do you all think? Do you still like Agent Ward? Did you ever like him? I would like to know. Thank you so much for reading.
