Armor Piercing Slap is no longer a trope
Deleted line(s) 23 (click to see context) :
* ArmorPiercingSlap: Played with. During the Horned King and Avalina's argument about her interference in the lich's chance to have his revenge on Taran, she suddenly slaps his face. While it doesn't hurt him physically (she can't hit hard), he's shocked that ''anyone'' slaps him at all and that it's ''her'' of all people. Unfortunately, the slap only makes him hold anger toward her for weeks.

After the argument that involves the above mentioned ArmorPiercingSlap, he seethes at her for weeks, prompting her to avoid him out of fear, cry daily and weaken physically. He hardly tries to rectify the situation out of anger and pride, and the situation worsens when [[ManipulativeBastard Arawn]] prompts him to say out loud that Avalina means nothing to her and that he should have killed her long time ago. The lich realizes her presence only after saying that. The situation is resolved after the Horned King saves Avalina from drowning and he apologizes for his behavior.

These examples of Surprisingly Realistic Outcome seem to violate at least one of these rules, which disqualifies them: No character reactions (characters get angry, don't forgive, don't change their personality instantly, etc.); Too fantastical (depends on the properties of magic, powers, sci-fi tech, monsters, etc.); Not surprising (a character was warned about the outcome, it's used to provide Karma or An Aesop, or it simply follows normal conventions for this genre or medium); Plot happens (the example only describes an event, but not why audiences would expect a different, unrealistic outcome); Not an outcome (a character just explains why something wouldn't work as expected); More of a Deconstruction (the event has major, lasting effects on the plot, make something more realistic, but not completely realistic, or a parody/fanwork applies realistic consequences to the events of a different work); or fits better under a different trope. See the trope's definition for more details. If you believe a removal was a mistake, please bring it up in the cleanup thread
