AITJ for helping a villain to protect myself and my cousin

(SHOW)

I, (14m), was born different from everyone else. Me, my cousin, and another random girl were created from a magic piece of jewelry that could create beings out of emotions. However, my father was a terrible person. He created me from jealousy of his sister in law's son, (my cousin) and eventually grew ill from creating me, so he blamed me and called me a monster and controlled me through the ring that held my life, and even almost KILLED me once. He isolated me from everything I love and tortured me and my mother for so long and I was only free after he died a couple years later. My aunt suffered the same fate while creating my cousin.

Now, my uncle has become a supervillain hell-bent on bringing his wife (my aunt) back to life using two of the other magic jewels from before, and so he fights two teenage heroes to steal the jewels from them. He also has the jewel that created me and my cousin and that means he can control us or even kill us if he wanted to, so I knew I had to get it from him.

Now, in a stroke of luck, one of the heroes mistook me for my cousin and gave me one of the jewels that can fetch anything you touch with it, and she showed me that she stores all the jewels but the two my uncle's looking for in her yoyo. So after pretending to be my cousin and stealing the yoyo from her, I traded all the other jewels for the one I wanted with my uncle.

However, while I do feel bad for helping a villain (especially my uncle I hate him), I feel like what I did was necessary for both me and my cousins safety. So AITJ?

AITJ for not finishing off my childhood best friend

(Not a movie)

I (35ish m) and my childhood best friend who was literally born the exact same day as me and is a prince to the throne. On our 16th birthday, the sages came and told me that I was the chosen one and I needed to go all over the world and master my powers, and even though I didn't want to leave him he encouraged me and was such a good friend to me. I finished my journey after 12 years and went back to my nation and got married to my childhood crush and it was great to see everyone again, but I noticed my friend looking like he was thinking of something. When I asked him about it he said he saw our nation as incredible, and he wanted to share it's wonder with the rest of the world. I got mad and refused to listen to anymore of it. A couple years later I saw he had invaded a bunch of colonies from the kingdom next door and I confronted him about it and we fought. I had him pinned and easily could have killed him but didn't in honor of our past friendship. Now he's invading more people and I feel like I made a mistake sparing him but we were really close before and I just couldn't bring myself to do it. AITJ for sparing him?

AITJ for stealing back something that was stolen from me?

I (400 F) used to have this really good herb that I'd use in my routine which helped me stay beautiful and young, but some rich person came and stole it when I forgot to hide it properly and ATE IT for some reason. I found out someone from their family had the effects of the herb so I took them and adopted them as one of my own and took care of them and gave them whatever they wanted, and protected them from the outside world, which also helped me keep my routine which I live on. The kid ran away with a wanted criminal and when I told them to come home they refused to and got mad when they found out they're adopted and left me. AITJ?
