History FanFic / AMightyDemonSlayerGroomsSomePonies

* UncannyValley: [[invoked]] The twinkle-eyed ponies' faces, due to their unmoving eyes, elicit this response from normal ponies and humans alike.

* ComplexityAddiction: For Tirac's plan to succeed, he needed to wait for the rainbow bridge to open again, take the elements to Earth to subvert their power to have a superweapon ready, unleash HellOnEarth in Equestria and hope his mother actually shows up, all the while posing as the good guy so no heroes thwart him before he is ready. As it turned out, it took 5000 years for the bridge to re-open. Any sensible person would probably abandon the plan after a couple centuries, but Tirac really wanted his revenge. The sheer absurdity of this is one of the big reasons that this chapter was officially removed.

* StrawHypocrite: Turns out, [[spoiler: Wind Whistler, viewing herself as infallible and wanting to force the world to be like her.]]
--> [[spoiler:'''Wind Whistler:''' If I am to build my empire of love and tolerance, I cannot tolerate someone who will not share my vision, even if that someone is you [Megan].]]

* WeCanRuleTogether: Tirac tries to pull this on Megan, claiming that they are NotSoDifferent. [[spoiler: Since he is only half right, this fails.]]

* PastExperienceNightmare: Megan mentions having nightmares for months after facing (and killing) [[BigBad Tirek]]. She was, after all, just a kid.

Originally, the story had an eight chapter, where it was revealed that Princesses Celestia and Luna are actually old enemies Tirek and Grogar, who have been secretly protecting and ruling the Ponies since the destruction of Dream Valley, all as part of a far-reaching scheme to eventually have revenge on Megan. The massive amount of controversy this elicited, from sheer fan disapproval of the PlotTwist to the constant comments on the sheer absurdity of them actually maintaining such a ploy for ''five thousand years'', resulted in the author officially discanonifying that chapter and removing it (the original text used to be preserved in a blog entry, [[MissingEpisode which is now deleted]]).
