What's a literal pun?

I think with the op meant is that they 'have' to. As in, they always do but don't actually have to make a pun for their power to work. That's how I took it, anyway.

Exactly! If the hero LITERALLY had to, people would understand, but since the hero CHOOSES to... the 'have' is the same as when you say to a friend who did something dumb 'You just HAD to do that, didn't you?', or when you say something stupid as a perfect response to something someone else said and you say 'sorry, I HAD to'. Thus, everyone hates the hero, because to everyone else, he's just being an ass XD
