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, or something is just an innate aspect of the setting or character that has a logical reason for being present); 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: There are a couple of examples throughout this fic:
** JustAFleshWound is averted here as gunshot wounds are taken very seriously, even if one is shot in the shoulder. Both [[spoiler: Ren and Makoto]] nearly bleed to death after being shot by [[spoiler: Kaneshiro]]. It also takes them several weeks to fully recover and [[spoiler: Ren]] still has lingering pain from their injury.
** PlayedForLaughs in one chapter. One of the biggest problems of living in a large house with twelve people is a lack of privacy. This leads to several incidents of InterruptedIntimacy whenever one of the couples start getting frisky. It gets to the point where the rest of the gang agree to give the couples [[LeaveTheTwoLovebirdsAlone their own rooms]] to avoid such awkward situations in the future.
