* MeaninglessTitle: Discussed several times. Society is so unstable and there were enough casualties during the Xiliens' invasion that there isn't much point in their formal job titles.

* ApocalypseHow: On the level of societal disruption, though the fic ends on a hopeful note that suggests humanity will recover eventually.
* BreakOutTheMuseumPiece: The HMAS Collins is apparently an “antique” and is the only working ship the Australians have.

* NoodleIncident: [[spoiler: We never actually find out what goes down between Ozaki and Godzilla]], making in a noodle incident for the end of the fic.
* OmnidisciplinaryScientist: Miyuki has shades of it. Though she says her biggest asset is her ability to organize things on a large level, she does a very good job with the algae farming that she's working on throughout the fic.

* YouAreBetterThanYouThinkYouAre: Miyuki points out that Ozaki has special powers, so he should be using those to provide greater help to the survivors. In an unusual twist, this trope is used to scold its target rather than praise them.

"Lack of Communication" is a fanfic by the author Truth on Website/ArchiveOfOurOwn. It serves as a continuation of ''Film/GodzillaFinalWars'' as it catalogues the human characters' first steps to rebuild society, their concerns that more Xilians could be out there, and what to do about Godzilla. It is notable both for its introspective quality, a characteristic not particularly associated with the Godzilla franchise, and for being one of the rare fics in the fandom to focus on the human characters rather than the kaiju.

This or 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

* SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome: The Xilians' attack on humanity, while failing to destroy them, has resulted in most communication being cut off. Furthermore, humans are now running out of food in cities, if Tokyo is anything to go by.
** A point discussed by Captain Gordon at one point references the many contractors who usually swoop down onto Tokyo in the aftermath of a Godzilla attack, a fairly realistic explanation for why Tokyo is able to rebuild itself fairly quickly between attacks.

* ImpededCommunication: As the title implies, the main theme of the fic is that humans have collectively lost contact with one another. Meanwhile, Ozaki is trying to hunt down Godzilla, who has never really communicated with humanity either.
* LastOfHisKind: Ozaki, both as the last mutant and the only survivor of M-Organization. [[spoiler: The ending implies he might be able to find more mutants, eventually.]]

!! "Lack of Communication" includes the following tropes:
* AmericansAreCowboys: Captain Gordon briefly dons a cowboy hat while meeting with Commander Namikawa. There's no reason given, though he may have just been doing it to troll her.
* {{Continuation}}: Of ''Godzilla: Final Wars'', mostly from a human perspective.
* ContinuityNod: At one point, Kumoro and Ozaki find film reel of Godzilla communicating with Anguirus, probably a reference to ''Film/GodzillaVsGigan''.
* FriendToAllLivingThings: Downplayed with Ozaki, who is very good with Kenta and is ''adored'' by Minya. [[spoiler: That Godzilla doesn't instantly incinerate him is probably a good indication that he's got something special as well]].
* RelationshipUpgrade: Anna and Captain Gordon, from ShipTease in the movie to a proper couple.
* RunningGag: Whenever Ozaki makes contact with Minya, the baby monster immediately gives him a huge hug, much to Ozaki's displeasure.
* SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome: The Xilians' attack on humanity, while failing to destroy them, has resulted in most communication being cut off. Furthermore, humans are now running out of food in cities, if Tokyo is anything to go by.
