* ArtEvolution: Just compare [[http://woonastuck.tumblr.com/image/13242124527 this post]] from early one in the story, to [[http://woonastuck.tumblr.com/image/33290554884 this one]] from the final arc.

* DeliberatelyMonochrome: All the art ([[http://egophiliac.tumblr.com/image/27214479496 except]] [[http://egophiliac.tumblr.com/image/28965783123 for]] [[http://egophiliac.tumblr.com/image/27157816459 a couple]] [[http://egophiliac.deviantart.com/art/echoes-of-love-301205986?q=gallery%3Aegophiliac%2F38774762&qo=6 of supplementary]] [[http://egophiliac.deviantart.com/art/making-woon-300235151?q=gallery%3Aegophiliac%2F38774762&qo=7 pieces]]) are done in gray-scale.

* AChildShallLeadThem: [[spoiler: The Changeling Queen, Imogen is a tiny little filly about Woona's age. Unfortunately, she's been overthrown by her [[RegentForLife treacherous regent]], Exuvia, and is currently on the run.]]

** [[spoiler: It might actually just be Nightmare Woon doing the narrating at this point]].

*** [[spoiler: BiggerBad: [[http://woonastuck.tumblr.com/image/33403494687 Discord]] looks like this for the entire story.

* [[spoiler: FightingAShadow: Dark Woona]]

* [[Spoiler: FightingAShadow: Dark Woona]]

** [[spoiler:The font used on the blog to transcribe the narration from the image even changes.]]

* VillainousBreakdown: [[spoiler:Dark Woona completely loses it when Woona just won't give up.]]
--> [[spoiler:'''Dark Woona''']]: '''[[WhyWontYouDie WHAT DO I HAVE TO DO TO GET RID OF YOU?!]]'''

* AsskickingPose: [[http://woonastuck.tumblr.com/post/29150538343/this-is-it-time-to-show-this-imposter-whos Woona's group takes one]] in preperation to fight Dark Woona [[spoiler:but she just flies right by them to [[EvilVsEvil fight the Changeling Regent]].]]

** The Changeling Queen ([[spoiler:actually the [[RegentForLife Regent]] who overthrew the ''real'' queen]]) could qualify for the arc dealing with the Changelings.

* AChildShallLeadThem: [[spoiler: The Changeling Queen is a tiny little filly about Woona's age. Unfortunately, she's been overthrown by her [[RegentForLife treacherous regent]] and is currently on the run.]]

* CuteLittleFang: The friendly (if nervous) Changeling filly sports one of these.

* EvilVersusEvil: [[spoiler:[[http://woonastuck.tumblr.com/post/29152752441/bwha Dark Woona vs the Changeling Regent]]. Neither wins, as Woona gains a supercharge and sends Dark Woona running while {{De Power}}ing the Regent.]]
** We find out later that [[spoiler:the Regent stole one of the ancient stones Woona is on a quest to find from Dark Woona, who attacked to get it back.]]

* GodSaveUsFromTheQueen: The Changeling Queen ([[spoiler:actually the [[RegentForLife Regent who usurped the real queen]]]]) [[spoiler:After her defeat, [[http://woonastuck.tumblr.com/post/29182445399/busted-yeah-no-the-changelings-arent the Changelings reveal she was pretty much the worst queen ever]] and pretty much they'd never have put up with her had she not been brainwashing them the whole time.]]

** [[spoiler:The Changeling Regent when [[http://woonastuck.tumblr.com/post/29179914601/the-regents-power-is-gone-that-means-that-the she realizes her brainwashing on the hive is broken.]]]]

** The changeling Queen seems to subvert this [[spoiler:but it turns out that was the [[RegentForLife Regent]], the real queen is actually rather nice.]]

** The Changeling Queen [[spoiler:([[RegentForLife actually the Regent]])]] also qualifies, as she's not PlayedForLaughs at ''all''.

* EnsembleDarkhorse: [[http://woonastuck.tumblr.com/post/22753523136/oh-hey-what-are-you-guys-doing-here-its-the The bat ponies Woona met]]. They were originally meant to disappear at the end of their arc, but people kept asking for their return and author himself said he missed them, so he brought them back!

* [[spoiler:PaintingTheFourthWall: Quite a bit of this happens in the final arc. First the supportive narration and commands start fading away as Woona's positive attitude is drained by the shmooze she's wading through. Then once this is fixed, the narration gets creepy echoes and a malevolent attitude in the background, and it turns out that Dark Woona has hijacked the narration to stop Woona.]]

* AsskickingPose: [[http://woonastuck.tumblr.com/post/29150538343/this-is-it-time-to-show-this-imposter-whos Woona's group takes one]] in preperation to fight Nightmare Woon [[spoiler:but she just flies right by them to [[EvilVsEvil fight the Changeling Regent]].]]

* BeamOWar: [[spoiler: Woona [[http://woonastuck.tumblr.com/post/22018868724 has one with Nightmare Woon]], and loses.]]
* BigBad: [[FanNickname Nightmare Woon.]]

* TheComicallySerious: Nightmare Woon.

* CurbstompBattle: Pretty much any time thus far that Woona tries to actually fight Nightmare Woon, she's received one. [[spoiler:The first time she was cocooned with Evil Jam and the second time the poor thing got blasted off a cliff.]]

* DespairEventHorizon: [[spoiler:[[http://woonastuck.tumblr.com/post/32508209309/its-useless-give-up-and-sink-into-the-smooze Woona comes close to this on her way to Nightmare Woon's fortress.]] Thankfully [[http://woonastuck.tumblr.com/post/32508673914 Celestia's spirit arrives]] and restores her hope.]]
* DivideAndConquer: [[spoiler:Nightmare Woon does this the final arc to Woona's party.]]

* EasilyForgiven: Everyone seems to forget about Luna trashing half the Seapony palace and ''attacking the prime minister'' after she defeats [[spoiler:Nightmare Woon's giant octopus.]]

* EvilVersusEvil: [[spoiler:[[http://woonastuck.tumblr.com/post/29152752441/bwha Nightmare Woon vs the Changeling Regent]]. Neither wins, as Woona gains a supercharge and sends Nightmare Woon running while {{De Power}}ing the Regent.]]
** We find out later that [[spoiler:the Regent stole one of the ancient stones Woona is on a quest to find from Nightmare Woon, who attacked to get it back.]]

* [[FacePalm Face Hoof]]: Nightmare Woon, [[http://woonastuck.tumblr.com/post/21905218107 here]].

* {{Foreshadowing}}: [[spoiler:[[http://woonastuck.tumblr.com/post/14801350425 Pretty much any post]] [[http://woonastuck.tumblr.com/post/15331551989 with Nightmare Woon in silhouette]].]]

* MissionControlIsOffItsMeds: [[spoiler:''Big time'' during Woona's infiltration of Nightmare Woon's fortress.]]
* NeverSayDie: Played straight through most of it, but averted by [[http://woonastuck.tumblr.com/post/32994260038/yes-i-want-to-know-what-happened-to-her-her Nightmare Woon]] in a rather frightening moment while [[LetMeTellYouAStory telling her version of how Woona's story ends.]]
--> '''Nightmare Woon''': Her friends never came to save her. '''AND SHE DIED.'''

* SmugSuper: Nightmare Woon, once she actually ''talks''. Surprisingly, it actually makes her ''more'' menacing because she does it while [[spoiler:dishing out a CurbstompBattle to Woona.]]

* [[VileVillainSaccharineShow Vile Villain Saccharine Blog]]: While most everything else is PlayedForLaughs, [[BigBad Nightmare]] [[FanNickname Woon]] isn't (most of the time), and can be surprisingly ominous at times. Example? [[spoiler:Sending a giant squid to attack the Sea Pony's city.]]

* [[spoiler:PaintingTheFourthWall: Quite a bit of this happens in the final arc. First the supportive narration and commands start fading away as Woona's positive attitude is drained by the shmooze she's wading through. Then once this is fixed, the narration gets creepy echoes and a malevolent attitude in the background, culminating in it breaking a post and letting Woona fall through the blogs formatting!]]
** [[spoiler:Implications seem to be that Dark Woona was hijacking the narration to get to Woona.]]

* VerusCharacterSplash: [[http://woonastuck.tumblr.com/post/32973225516/continue-yes-no Displayed prior to the]] FinalBattle.

* SlidingScaleOfSillinessVersusSeriousness: ''Very'' tilted towards the silly side.

* MissionControlIsOffItsMeds: [[spoiler:''Big time'' during Woona's infiltration of Nightmare Woon's fortress. Turns out its due to Nightmare Woon hijacking it.]]
