History Fanfic / TheAdventuresOfJohnPhoenix

* AdaptationalHeroism: Every villain that is not a prosecutor or asociated with them is an ally of John Phoenix.

* ProtagonistCenteredMorality: The narration is always quick to excuse John Phoenix, but when you think about it, a lot of what he does is questionable, and by the end, he's [[spoiler:effectively uncontested by anyone in the world, able to do whatever he so pleases.]] For instance, at one point, John Phoenix [[spoiler:knocks out a teacher, locks the classroom, and sets fire to the building]], which the narration assures you is okay because he alerted the proper authorities. Later on in the story, he [[spoiler: uses his psychic powers to lob cars and trucks at courthouses in rage because they stopped letting him control the entire legal system]], not to mention the time when he [[spoiler: locks Trucy Wright in what is effectively a prison]] or [[spoiler: blows up a crowd of people, blasting the heads and limbs off of them, though the narration states everyone this happened to was bad]].

* {{Narrator}}: The narration occasionally speaks directly to the reader, stating that specific occurrences or objects represent or are character growth, making it clear that the narrator is more than a simple record. It's not clear whether the Narrator is a specific character, but based on the Sequel, where actions occur while the narrator is narrating, they are not fully external.

* TakeAThirdOption: During the trial of Woodman, late in the fic, John Phoenix is faced with a choice between maintaining his perfect record- something of great importance to him- with the cost of Woodman being officially considered innocent of his various heinous crimes, or losing the trial so Woodman gets his complete just deserts. John Phoenix takes the third option, immediately telling the judge Woodman is guilty, but then using his Psychic Powers to manipulate the court record so he technically wins the trial.
* UnreliableNarrator: The narrator often makes statements like "she knew deep down that this wasn't true, and that John Phoenix had bested her honestly and like a gentleman." for cases consisting of blatant cheating which are only legal because the law hasn't caught up yet, and generally makes direct narrative claims which simply aren't true or within the scope of narration to make. For its unreliability in those matters, it can also be inferred that it's less than reliable in other matters.

* UnreliableNarrator: as a corollary to the above, the narrator is definitely unreliable. For instance, it often makes statements like "she knew deep down that this wasn't true, and that John Phoenix had bested her honestly and like a gentleman." for cases consisting of blatant cheating which are only legal because the law hasn't caught up yet, and generally makes direct narrative claims which simply aren't true or within the scope of narration to make.
