Yup, but he does evil to achieve good, to "make all of them Better Worlds" (Admittedly, he's also a few sandwiches short of a picnic, but it's the principle that counts ... :-D)
That is what is so unsettling about him: He's completely sincere about being a monster and having no place in the Utopia he tries to bring about - yet he's also completely convinced that the end justifies any and every means necessary to achieve it, and seeing as he happens to be on speaking (and shaving) terms with a military-grade psychopath, he considers himself to be the appropriate tool. The thought that the means might taint the goodness of the end never occurs to him.
P.S.: Also, Mal and the gang are quite open about not being 'The Good Guys'TM, either.

As I recall, Light Yagami subscribed to a similar philosophy as his Kira persona in Deathnote.
Something to the effect of making himself a twisted sort of martyr by being only person performing evil acts in his vision for a new world.

Marten! Marten! Focus, son! You are drifting off again and you need to focus!
Yes, Tilly is over-intense to the point where you have to question their ability to function properly. It's inevitable (especially during school) that this would have led either to abuse or to people who were permanently worried about their safety or health (mental or emotional especially).
I also have to agree with Hannelore: Tilly has failed in professionalism to date; why start worrying about that now?

Definitely Lawful Evil. I'm pretty sure he would cheerfully agree with the analysis.

Tardigrade!? Yes! That fits her perfectly - the most nearly indestructible, unstoppable organism on earth ;)
