History FanFic / ToFaceTheWolf

* BrokenPedastal - The other Gryffindor's responses to [[WhatDoYouMeanItsNotHeinous Hermione reading a fiction book in class]]

* BritishAccents - Snape's original North Yorkshire accent comes through when he's stressed despite his attempts to suppress it.

* TheWoobie - Hermione

* RealisticDictionIsUnrealistic - Finrod after having mastered English. Especially when trying to convince people about something. Taken UpToEleven after TheReveal when even the other character's [[LampshadeHanging notice]]. The former is somewhat [[JustifiedTrope justified]] in that Finrod has had centuries of experience as leader. There is some [[JustifiedTrope justification]] for the latter part in {{Canon}} in that Elves are supposedly very good at mimicking different kinds of speech in foreign languages but tend naturally to an [[AntiquatedLinguistics archaic]] sounding type and with the [[AwfulTruth truth out]] Finrod might revert to this

* BrokenPedastal - The other Gryffindor's responses to [[WhatDoYouMeanIt'sNotHeinous Hermione reading a fiction book in class]]

* GettingCrapPastTheRadar - a throwaway sentence has Madam Pomfrey treating "an attractive fifth year" who has been hexed to have a bunny tail. Lupin wonders if a certain [[ShoutOut muggle]] [[Playboy magazine ]] is circulating at Hogwarts

* MagicAIsMagicA - Subverted. Unlike many this author remembers that The Harry Potter & Silmarillion "magic" run on very different rules. The wizards aren't quite sure how to classify Finrod

* PrettyBoy - Unsurprisingly being an elf, Finrod. Snape says he'd make the young [[TallDarkAndHandsome Sirius]] [[EstrogenBrigadeBait Black ]], [[WhiteHairedPrettyBoy Lucius Malfoy ]] and [[TallDarkAndHandsome Tom Riddle ]] look plain.

* BritishAccents - Snape's original North Yorkshire accent comes through when he's stresses despite his attempts to suppress it.

* Screw Destiny - Averted. [[spoiler:Finrod]] accepts his both prior to and during the story

* FixFic - [[spoiler:Hermione's]] actions which end up [[spoiler:summoning Finrod]] are something of a meta-twist on an attempt to do this and a SelfInsertFic

* PerverseSexualLust - While not sexual (given the character's age)[[spoiler:Hermione's]] reaction to [[spoiler:Finrod]] when reading can definitely be taken as a crush.

* RealisticDictionIsUnrealistc - Finrod after having mastered English. Especially when trying to convince people about something. Taken UpToEleven after TheReveal when even the other character's [[LampshadeHanging notice]]. The former is somewhat [[JustifiedTrope justified]] in that Finrod has had centuries of experience as leader.

* Shout Out - [[ShoutOutToShakespeare to Shakespeare's]] Hamlet

* ShownTheirWork - Of Tolkien's Work. The difference in Elvish philosophy to Human is portrayed perfectly showing knowledge of [[AllThereInTheManual more than just even ]] [[TheHistoryOfMiddleEarth The Silmarillion ]]

* JanitorImpersonationInfiltration - Not exactly this trope but Finrod impersonates Snape to get around the school without attracting students' notice. Although his disguise is physically perfect he wears a blue robe [[GlamourFailure]]. HilarityEnsues

* MagicAIsAMagicA - Subverted. Unlike many this author remembers that The Harry Potter & Silmarillion "magic" run on very different rules. The wizards aren't quite sure how to classify Finrod

* ContinuityNod quite a few, from both sources.

* Telepathy - As in the Silmarillion, Finrod has some level of this, again allowing him to learn languages quickly
** It also allows him to notice both [[spoiler:Sirius & Wormtail in their animagus forms]] aren't quick what they seem

* YouCan'tFightFate

* GuiltByCoincidence-Being the only werewolf in the Castle, if Finrod wasn't able to testify otherwise, Lupin would have been taken to be the attacker. Snape is especially convinced he is

* CrowningMomentOfAwesome - Findrod facing a Dementor[[spoiler:, and destroying it easily]]
** Another one for the author for making this crazy idea work, even without any serious harm to the original plot.
* CrowningMomentOfHeartwarming - most of the fic, most notably, the whole ending.
** Finrods gift to Lupin [[spoiler:- a carved wooden statue of Padfoot]]

* Awful Truth (refer to Book within A book)
* Badass - Finrod did kill a werewolf with his teeth, even though he is slightly ashamed of this.
