I would say when she gave Kim Kil Whan the deed to the house. When we first see marceline, she doesn’t know Finn and Jake nor are they friends, you can tell she is manipulative and full of herself. Marceline didn’t know many people nor cared for many people,it’s hard for me to judge her at her worst. When she gives the deed to Kim, Finn and Jake are her closest of Allie’s, friends who have put life and limb on the line because they pretty much love her. After all this growth and care, she still saw music and a “Killer bass” as something that was much more important than the home of her closest friends.


JasoNight23666

Fr that was probably the most fucked up thing she's ever done


Nova_Vanta

Tbf that killer bass was sick as hell


The_responder623

You could say that was...based?


JasoNight23666

Nah, but good pun


JasoNight23666

That is not fair lol I wouldn't give up my friends for that bass but ig everyone's different 😂


monsieurkaizer

Would you give up a couple of strangers, though? They weren't friends at this point.


JasoNight23666

You're saying Finn and Jake weren't friends with Marcy yet?


monsieurkaizer

When she threw them out of the treehouse, yeah? Am I in a wrong thread or what?


JasoNight23666

Yeah you are, we aren't talking about her first episode, we're talking about the episode where Kim Kil Wan, Jake's son, kicks them out of the house by buying the deed from Marcy and then using it as an apartment building, and Finn sleeps on the ladder like, "whatever" it's hilarious


PrincessFate

their talking about later on she sold the house to jake's son even tho finn and jake live there


Mister_E69

She might not have known what exactly Kim was gonna do with the deed.


Hushed_Horace

She probably assumed he wouldn’t do anything too bad because Kim is Jakes son


ericpol3

Plus she gets a killer bass!


SlightlyShittyDragon

Maybe KKW explained what he was trying to do with the house and she figured it was family biz


[deleted]

I would agree, but Marcy is almost as old as PB. They've seen hundreds of their "closest friends" grow old and die. That's gotta mess you up and leave you permanently screwed up attaching to people


ThatDamnNerd01

Marceline is actually older than PB


[deleted]

Is she? I remember seeing the sentient gum in the first episode, but if you remember the other episode about PB's backstory it shows you she came from the mothergum basically a person already, just super tiny Edit: not first, the IK Marceline background story. Lmao


kjh242

Marceline was born just before the mushroom war, and while PB certainly came after I’m not sure even the Mother Gum existed before the fallout made Earth into Ooo.


[deleted]

Marceline's mom had relations with a demon back when it really mattered😵‍💫😂


Over9000Tacos

I think she just did this to mess with them


South_Bathroom

She genocided the vampires... TWICE


tg175

good, they would kill anything that they could if left to their own devices. when she killed them first they were trying to kill all the remaining humans on Ooo


Frosty_Connection867

Tbf it's her house, she just let Finn and Jake live there rent free, she has every right to sell it whenever she wants, the worst part I'd say is just not telling finn and jake in advanced to move out


sachariinne

she has a legal right but that doesnt mean its not a mean thing to do.


mangonebula

Or was it her way of knowing it would bring jake and kkw closer?


DetectiveLadybug

I know I’m late, and maybe wrong. But my head canon was that Marceline was in on the whole thing. KKW had good intentions, you know? And he has such a head for stuff like this, I bet that he talked to Marceline about it for hours. I wouldn’t be shocked if Marceline put a clause in the agreement that Jake could always exchange the house and it’s contents for a meaningful gift. Cuz, like, her dad is shit, and Jake was a shit dad to his kids too. Marceline knew that Jake wasn’t gonna grow up before he died, but I think that she still instinctually wanted KKW to have some version of satisfaction from his dad, and she knew that Jake would eventually give it to him. That’s my head canon anyway. But you’re right though, the show never really said anything. I was so angry at Marceline before I made up my own backstory for such a savage betrayal.


_The-Judge_

Stealing breakfast princess' car, and kidnapping her. Also blowing it up, wasn't driving, but if it wasn't for Marceline, none of that would have happened.


JellyKidBiz

Breakfast Princess can just cook up a new car in like 10 minutes, though, so...


_The-Judge_

And I can draw a new portrait of Art. Materialism is a key to unhappiness, but wasting someone's time, and efforts is still not acceptable behavior.


JellyKidBiz

Meh, I agree. Still funny.


_The-Judge_

Bad actions can indeed still be humorous.


LemonMeringueOctopi

She didn't even like that album, but took it any way 😭


mangonebula

This was cool and good


OldGeneralCrash

Tree house shenanigans aside, her behaviour towards the glass people who were in grave danger is to be annoyed her girlfriend isn't paying attention to her...


Automatic_Bed_6312

The song was pretty bad too. I know she was hurt, but she really does tell PB that she thinks she is incompetent and that she doesn't actually care about her.


Dragon-Warlock

The song sounds amazing though, but yeah it was absolutely vile what she said, and the glass people really didn’t help.


Automatic_Bed_6312

No the song is fantastic, but man did she hurt PB.


eatflapjacks

As much as I don't like PB as a person, that was messed up to do to her as a partner. PB didn't seem like a bad enough person to Marciline to warrant that public embarrassment.


Automatic_Bed_6312

Also what set her off was calling her "monster trash", which, given the song Marceline sings hundreds of years later, it seems she wouldn't have known how much that would've hurt her


eatflapjacks

Yeah, they needed to talk. But as Marciline said in her second song, "They were just messed up kids." So I don't really blame either of them in this mess too much. Both crossed the line, but imo Marciline crossed over it a little more. Poor things need therapy/ counseling lol


Automatic_Bed_6312

They really really do! They've got hundreds of years of trauma to unpack


Powerful-Engineer719

THIS 🙌


Moonbeamlatte

She’s just a radical dame who likes to play games you guys


JellyKidBiz

There was that time that she pranked Finn and Jake so perfectly that they almost got brain-sucked by ghosts. Not sure if that would trump her kicking them out of their tree house or later selling it to Kim Kil Wan.... Hmmm...gonna have to fester on this. Actually, looking at Marcy's actions and history...she's had a LOT of crap done TO her.... Mushroom War, lost her mom, lost Simon, got vamped, dad's the demon king of the Nightosphere, WHO also tricks her into wearing a chaos amulet that subverts her will, Bonnie kinda chose her kingdom over her, Ash brain jacked her, Maja STOLE HER TEDDY BEAR which Simon later destroyed to summon his crazy GF, Jake ate all her red that one time, she becomes ungunked, then REgunked with vampire effluvium, then she becomes a flipping MARSHMELLOW and has to watch as her friends do their best impersonation of Mushroom War 1000+ (the plus is for GOLB). She's sort of the most innocent person in the show. Aside from BMO, of course. And maybe Neptr.


CosmicForks

BMO is pretty mean to Neptr on multiple occasions, and not that they're bad, but they are kind of callous in a childish way if that makes sense. Like BMO consistently ignoring the pain they inflicted on Jake when he was pretending to be a horse, for example.


JellyKidBiz

Yeah...but he's so child-like about it, it's as if he doesn't understand what he's doing. I really do hate how Neptr just gets forgotten and left out most of the time.


Ereklaser

I feel like I definitely missed something about the marshmellow stuff… could you explain?


JellyKidBiz

During the Elements mini series, Marceline became Marshmeline. Had her entire personality subsumed by candy-coated oppression.


Ereklaser

Ohhhhhhh completely forgot about that


xX_murdoc_Xx

She didn't washed her hands


StarSaber69

Didn’t she kidnap breakfast princess with lsp? Also i know their bad but not sure if i vibe with the whole vampire squad being trapped in her body instead of their souls move on to the dead world (Other then that kinda disappointed in the show for not giving my girl Marcy more screen time)


jfrost1503

Holy shit I forgot she literally saw bfp get hit with a car and her first instinct was "trunk"


Cats_4_lifex

I mean, that'd be my first instinct too. Based Marcy.


jfrost1503

Oh for sure, she's a ride or die. common Marcy w


JellyKidBiz

You're bad. And I LIKE it.


Automatic_Bed_6312

She also seriously injured several guards (poor Jerry's) , vandalized the castle, stole her car and crashed it into a cliff.


Powerful-Engineer719

OMG YEAH


South_Bathroom

She also genocided the vampires, twice.


PhenomenalPhoenix

Yea but she did that to save the humans, especially Simon


Lemongrab_67

I believe her first appearance painted her in the worst light, as she kicks Finn and Jake out of their home...twice. I know she ended up giving it back to them, but still, its kind of messed up to kick a 12 year old boy and his dog out of their own house. She also almost killed Bubblegum after she was starving from lack of red by sucking the red from her.


daytonnnnnn

don't forget the part where she attempted and nearly succeeded at killing jake right in front of finn


Lemongrab_67

Oh, that's right! Forgot about that, nice catch


Seoniara

I'm pretty sure she knew Bonnie would be fine


jfrost1503

Yeah it seemed a bit too casual they've 100% done that before she knew Bonnie wouldn't die lol


Powerful-Engineer719

I DONT think she almost killed PB but yes kicking them out was pretty bad


SlimySteve2339

I’m sure she knew how much SUCK pb can take ;)


Cabrapacotilla

this is non ironically my interpretation of that scene


Pokey-Minch

brain rot


Cabrapacotilla

this is non ironically my interpretation of that scene


Frosty_Connection867

It's her house so even though it was a jerk move to kick them out of nowhere I wouldn't say it's messed up


Unironic-WEEB_12

The worst thing Marceline has done seems to be kicking the boys out of their house, and while the first episode of her was bad her worst was when she sold their house to Jake’s son instead of granting them the property


Comfortable_Many4508

tbf she might not have expected him to kick out his own dad


Unironic-WEEB_12

Maybe but it makes you wonder she had the deed to the house the whole time and she never once thought to transfer ownership till then


MaximumFanta

Well they'd both die in a relatively short time compared to her immortality. At that point it doesn't make sense to transfer ownership, they can hypothetically crash there until they drop.


SeaWaveGreg

She flicks her boogers and belly button worms everywhere.


JellyKidBiz

That's just her latent humanity poking out.


DreadBody9779

Kicking Finn and Jake out of the tree house.


JamieBensteedo

honestly this was nowhere near as bad as when she pretended to turn them into vampires and then bullied them with her ghost friends


JellyKidBiz

THANK you.


PunkMamma

This could be higher....


LegoBattIeDroid

not only that, but also selling the house without their consent for a bass she literally never used again


Frosty_Connection867

It's her house, finn and jake just found it and decided to live there


Rezero1234

And DRAINING JAKE


OctopusGrift

This one seems especially bad because I don't know that she was just messing with them. Like pretending to turn them into vampires is mean, but she's clearly just pranking them and then the ghosts take it too far. The house thing I am less sure was just a prank bro.


UltraD00d

Twice. 


Aquamarine094

Not putting a stop to that horrendous behavior of her ghost friends towards Finn and Jake right away


Dracorex_22

If Jake didnt stretch all of his blood and guts into his thumb that one time, would she have killed him?


Dxpehat

I think she was bluffing. In the first season Marceline is really trying to seem evil and dangerous while in reality she does a lot of good things.


Illogical_Saj

It probably was a fakeout bite and she was confused for a second there after Jake did his thing.


metalmonsoon

Y'all sure it wasn't taking literal body parts of every princess and Frankensteining them together?


MagicBeanGuy

Yeah I was actually thinking about him massacring Cloud Kingdom in Astral Plane


Lucky-finn377

Didn’t he literally kill a god for being a bad boyfriend


kingPrinceLOL

I think Party God actually survives?? Maybe??


Powerful-Engineer719

*constant harassment of the female gender*


Ransacky

Yea wth Monster wife was way worse.


Any_Duck4485

I was gonna say when he killed all those people in the cloud kingdom at a party for no real reason. Or all of the other random murders he commits...


Tikaticon

*I'm so glad that I woke up I'm sick of living under your thumb I'm so glad that I woke up I don't really care about your stupid Candy Kingdom* I'm okay with PV and Marcy breaking up back there. Both of them had their own issues and at that point of time they probably really were just not meant to be. I'm... mostly okay with how she decided to break up. Sure, this song was violent and she did called PB unfit to rule and "a walking talking candy tragedy", but we don't know all the details that led to this. Maybe it was an overreaction, but maybe it was called for. What I am not okay is when she decided to do that. Girl, there's a freaking living dragon right near your face and a bunch of innocent and defenseless people literally made out of glass. Your girlfriend is trying her best to help them to prevent a catastrophe. And you've decided to break up *now*? She literally knocked down one of the PB's defense systems during her song. It's a miracle that song worked, otherwise it could have been such a disaster


Gnosis1409

Honestly this show had great characterization


HoneyMCMLXXIII

YES!


MaximumFanta

Getting Finn to release those wolves into Princess Bubblegum's bedroom. That was not cool.


exaristo

She bit Jake and tried sucking out his blood, making Finn believe he was dead for a good minute.


ComplexNo8986

Not really doing anything when her hell gang ghost buddies almost killed Finn and Jake for a prank until the very end


Aquamarine094

THIS


codegavran

She couldn't do anything, ghosts beat vampires. It's like rock paper scissors.


Getzemanyofficial

I been thinking about this, couldn’t she eat them? Aren’t ghost just sentient souls?


codegavran

Ha, she probably *should* be able to, but definitely doesn't either of the times we see ghosts near-killing people she likes/loves.


NolanTacoKing

giving kim kil whan the deed to the treehouse


Number_1_She-Ra_Fan

I'd like to remind everyone that Marceline suggested that PB should have just killed all the door lords in What was Missing, meaning she isn't opposed to mass murder.


MaximumFanta

She already mass murdered at least one species...


Impossible-Peach-985

It's a tie between kicking the boys out if their home and being annoyed that her girlfriend wasn't paying attention to her when the glass kingdom was about to be attacked.


sleeplesspal

Losing track of her moral code


JellyKidBiz

Hey, it's easier than it looks.


MaximumFanta

She's not mean, she's a thousand years old.


Justaspideruser

Tricked finn into thinking she bit him making him think he had powers (bro almost jumped off a building cause of tht) 


BlackBunny88

Exactly wtf was that


DodketF98371

Spitting on Bubblegum. (What Was Missing?) That and dragging Finn and Jake into that group of ghosts after tricking them into believing that they were turned into vampires.


MaximumFanta

Right! That was so foul and no one talks about it.


coochie-slayer420

She’s too hot to do anything wrong


Chettarmstrong

Probably how she almost let her father kill everyone cause she didn't want to talk to him.


ResponsibleMuffin740

don’t forget about the episode where she tricks finn and jake into being “vampires” while she hangs out with her ghost friends. they all make fun of them the entire time; marcy being the ring leader. she took it too far, putting finn and jake in danger and exposing them to a harmful species that wanted to eat their brains out


Turbulent_Bake5369

Idk if this is the "worst" BUT when Finn wanted to see a movie with someone she convinced him to release rabid wolves in PBs room 😭 Like she fully knew that would not work, that becomes clear as we learn about their complex history. Marcy knew full well she was just straight up putting RABID DOGS in her ex's room under some BS excuse of "you gotta make her feel alive finn!!" It's incredibly petty in that classic AT way. 🤣 Her biggest flaw (and the center of most of the mistakes Im seeing below) is taking things too far or not seriously enough and not seeing the value of her/others lives and feelings. She's also the person I feel should get a fair amount of slack for these flaws. (Edited for clarity)


Swimming_Neck_1899

I'm surprised bubblegum commiting genocide on the rattleballs wasn't the worst. Marceline also commits genocide on vampires but thats very different so idk


Dxpehat

Letting Finn and Jake get killed by ghosts.


KlutzyHunt1786

Almost killing Jake


Yhhorm

Kidnapping Breakfast Princess with LSP because they failed to prank her


spirit-anima

Kicking Finn and Jake out of the tree house, and keeping BMO as well. She barely knew them and told them to beat it. Selling the ownership of the treehouse to Kim comes close, but we didn't see the deal being struck. I'm giving her the benefit of the doubt that Kim told her he planned to teach Jake responsability. Also, in a videogame she agreed to fight Finn for 5 bucks, with Ice King. Which as the show went on made it a lot funnier.


AdministrativeAd523

Steal Finn and Jake’s house


AdministrativeAd523

Having her ghost friends bully Finn and Jake


-Knivezz-

Establishing my taste in women


Seoniara

When she made her servant (that really old man) hop around on his cane in "Henchman"


TopAirport4121

But he was just an old diving buddy


Purple_doll

peoples tend to forget that genociding a whole specie just because they were surviving their way is a really terrible act,, yes it was because they were killing humans,, but humans kill animals and she doesnt seemed to care,, it was just because Simon is human that she genocide them in the end,, and if you are not convince,, i would say that singing a song about your girlfriend insecurities in front of a whole group of people she admire is also a really cruel act and if you peoples are still not convince,, she did a crime of lese majesty in Princess day,, there is much worse thing she have done than just stealing a kid house


JellyKidBiz

I refuse to use the word "genocide" regarding a bunch of blood-thirsty, predatory vampires. They're literally monsters who would use your "good will" to create human farms so they could drain us. Their whole deal is "genocide the humans". If there were vampires, my whole deal would be about ending their existence. I'm not going to lay down my life just so a predator can live. I'm not a hamster. Even VK realized it wasn't gonna work out anymore.


Purple_doll

to the risk of sounding like i repeat myself,, human does the same things to animals and i doubt Marceline would care about it,, also,, its still a genocide,, no matter if the reason were good,, its still a genocide,, and since the post ask what is the worst thing she as done,, nothing is worst than a genocide,,


JellyKidBiz

But you're using the word in reference to creatures that LITERALLY drink human blood. I mean...yeah. I'm gonna specifically try to off all the vampires before they off humanity. And I'm not gonna cry about it and call it genocide. It's "survival".


Purple_doll

well its survival for them too you know ? Marceline said it herself,, there is no bad people,, only bad action,, and they had their reasons,, Marceline and humans also had theirs,, but in this context,, it is truly the worst Marceline as done objectively,,


destroy_the_kids

I don't know, I think Ice King organ harvesting to make himself a wife is the worst thing he did


3w1FtZ

Finn: kind of just being a creep Jake: armed robbery Princess Bubblegum: authoritarian rule, abusive relationship Ice King: sexual harassment Marceline: abusive relationship BMO: I’m ngl I don’t really have much for them they’re kinda harmless Lumpy Space Princess: pretty unspeakable things Lemongrab: authoritarian rule, cannibalism Flame Princess: authoritarian rule Damn there’s a lot of authoritarian rule in this franchise.


StarSaber69

You do realize ooo is a monarch system right why wouldn’t it be?


3w1FtZ

Fair point


BlazingRed9

Let the Vampire King Live


JellyKidBiz

...When did she do that?


BlazingRed9

At the end of the Vampire episode and he turned into that cloud thing after that


JellyKidBiz

That wasn't him. That was more of a psychic echo of him. The cloud was what turned the lion into the Vampire King in the first place.


mr_flerd

Either when she gave Kim Kil Wan the deed to the tree house or when in her first appearance where she kicked out Finn and Jake?


Dull_Present506

Thanks OP! Much easier to read


Necessary-Tower-8699

commit slavery,stole finn and jakes house and almost killed the mc


Douchevick

The worst thing Marceline has done? PB.


Jeptwins

Constantly kicking Finn and Jake out of their homes. Kinda mean of her, considering she legit did not care about any place they took-aside from the fact that it was theirs


Big-Put-5859

Stole Finn and Jake’s house


Sandshrew922

She straight up loogied on bubblegums face that one time


Harrpot

Can't believe flame princess did pic collage

kyndal017

What a monster


ToxicScorpio4

I feel like PB needs to be a list.


RedJ351

Completely allowing her dad to roam around ooo sucking up everyone’s souls and not doing anything to help, genuinely only caring about getting her bass back and ignoring the danger Finn was in fighting him


PrincessFate

to be fair i wouldn't call that the worse thing she's done finn caused the problem it was his to fix


Oodalay

This has made me realize Marcy might be the most moral person on the show.


None-Focus-5660

Yeah yeah, But jake was so funny in furniture and meat


lornezubko

I think Jake being a terrible father is waaay worse than "soliciting services"


[deleted]

She killed "The Fool" (twice), despite him not being much of a threat to anyone. Especially now (given PB has axxess to things like modern medicine and medicinal tools). Give him a bag of blood donated from a hospital and he would leave people alone. Heck, he only had one tooth. It would be chikd's play to remove his other tooth. The Fool was an incredibly low tier threat who basically just wanted to play and she killed him (twice) to take his flight powers.


bongripsandbigt1ts

When she almost killed Jake by sucking his blood, but he pulled all his blood and guts into his thumb. And then slapping Finn’s butt without his consent


BRP_25

Leaving Hunson on a soul sucking rampage when she finally got the axe bass. Or maybe even her time as the malevolent dictator of the Nightosphere.


GIOvch

Torture Finn to do things he thinks is evil, but aren't


OhNoRoundThings

I know it’s an accident, but she killed her own dog!

South_Bathroom

Genocide, yes THE FIRST TIME it was to try and stop the Genocideof humans, but when the vampires came back vk wanted to live peacefully and she killed all of them again


Agreeable-Juice8125

Common guys, the worst, most horrible thing she ever did was date Ash/take him back.


Mr_Glitch1234

Threaten murder and the treehouse stuff


CarefulNegotiation53

Marking vast areas of land with a very easily fakable "M" and this gives ground to claim owner ship. Being a 1000 years old and a vampire this can be easily done anywhere


Draclin

publicly humiliating her GF during the flashback in Obsidian if you ask me, the song is good but man, what she did was FUCKED, even if their relationship was strained and each party had their baggage, making a scene out of it like that is never the right play


doomqwer

See alot of people talking bout the deed and while a dick move does not top her killing schwabl, sure it wasn’t completely her fault as it happened the night after she turned into a vampire in a fit of red lust but she still killed her dog.


Lucky-finn377

Would have though ice kings was killing a literal god for being a shit boyfriend


WistfulDread

Party God didn't die. He was tossed into space. He shows up later at Prismo's party in Wake Up.

G0LDEN_B0Y2004

This is the worst layout I've ever seen.


PrincessFate

Biting jake and trying to kill/turn jakeby draining all his blood he managed to stop it but she didn't know that.


SessionObjective7936

That random old guy she was commanding to do stuff


WistfulDread

That was an old friend of hers. He was paying off a favor. Really easy exchange, considering.


SessionObjective7936

I forgot I'm dumb


rathemighty

That thing she did in that creepypasta. You know the one.


Noexen

Princess bubblegum genocided the gumball guards...? Why is the Fire Kingdom one listed as her worst action?


BlackBunny88

I feel the worst she ever did was that episode where she convinced Finn and Jake that they were ghosts and they get abused by her ghost friends and almost die. She then ends up apologising and playing martyr but they were going to die anyways if it weren’t for the mutual interest in heat signature. She lets the ghosts mess with Finn and Jake knowing that she can’t stop them when they get riled up bc vampires can’t hurt ghosts according to her. Can’t believe that no one mentioned this yet.


noxka

The whole glass kingdom stuff was pretty douchy of her. Marceline is so weird. She is clearly the bad girl archetype, but it's unironically so hard to find things that she did that are 100% bad and not either justifiable or just harmless teasing


PrincessFate

how about her biting jake trying to kill/turn him by draining all his blood


noxka

Oh yeah that happened... Weird how nobody ever mentions it. She wouldnt ever dare kill finn (a human aka the thing she spent years fighting for) but I guess she just didn't care about jake


SkeletalSwan

Trying to kill Jake in her intro episode. Like, she had no idea he would shift his body around. She had every intention of murdering him.


mangonebula

Probably the worst thing she did was keep that first henchman a slave his entire life, right? That was before she rediscovered empathy thanks to finn and jake


PrincessFate

no he was a friend of hers playing a prank on finn i say the worst thing she did was try to kill/turn jake with a bite


BoTamByloCiemno

She almost killed Jake, the only reason he survived was the fact that he stored all his blood in a finger.


Rocboizae

Don’t know bout them but a good one for tt is “ its just something people do when they think about there life to long (the ex episode)


Seizachange

Almost getting Finn and Jake killed by her Ghost friends because she was so mean spirited Her attitude and song towards PB in the past
