* AdvanceNoticeCrime: Entropy tells Mirabelle in advance that he's going to use his mirror magic to steal two shards of the [[ArtifactOfDoom Heart of Vermiel]] from his [[DatingCatwoman on-and-off girlfriend]] Little Witch. Since Mirabelle is his sister and a non-combatant in the heroes vs villains thing, he doesn't consider it a big secret to keep from her. As Mirabelle has another of the shards and the shards can locate each other, she promptly piggybacks off his mirror magic teleportation with her own to steal one of the shards out from under Entropy's nose.

general clarification on works content; while the Laconic doesn't require the curse to be uttered, the Trope page indicates it should. Going with "Downplayed" and hoping that's right.

All four pieces are destiny-bonded not just to the person who most recently held that piece, but to each other, meaning each piece is clingy to four entities - a person, and the other three pieces of the Heart. Without powerful binding magics, chance and fate will bend to guarantee they keep returning to their destiny-bound person and causing their destiny-bound holders to keep finding each other.

Mirabelle has many friends with amazing superpowers that let them go on adventures. Her superpower includes being made of glass, and having her body break from such mundane actions as running too much. A chance (or is it?) encounter in school acquaints her with a crystal artifact, part of the heart of a dragon, that offers her power and protection if she allows it to use her. Of course, she rejects the obvious trap, right? Well, sort of... I mean a little power won't corrupt her all that much, will it?

If anybody even thinks you’ve given away a hero or villain’s identity, you’ll be killed.

Another follow-up to ''Literature/PleaseDontTellMyParentsImASupervillain'' by Creator/RichardRoberts, following Mirabelle, sister to Entropy, and featuring cameos of characters from all of the previous books.

Mirabelle has many friends with amazing superpowers that let them go on adventures. Her superpower includes being made of glass, and having her body break from such mundane actions as running too much. A chance (or is it?) encounter in school acquaints her with a crystal artifact, part of the heart of a dragon, that offers her power and protection if she allows it to use her. Of course, she rejects the obvious trap, right? Well, sort of... I mean a little power won't corrupt her all that much, will it?

----
!!This book provides examples of the following tropes:

* ArtifactDomination: The Heart of Vermiel causes the bearer of the shards to be more destructive, and yearn to seek out the other pieces. It's indicated that possessing all four shards will replace the bearer's mind with that of Vermiel.
* BewareTheSillyOnes: Mirabelle points out this trope for Pretty Bubbles, who can control suds, but is able to use it to readily defeat Entropy.
* CensorSuds: This is Pretty Bubbles's in-universe costume.
* DatingCatwoman: Entropy is dating Pretty Bubbles
* DemotedToExtra: Penny, Claire, Magenta, and Avery all show up in supporting roles to Mirabelle.
* PowerCrystal: The Heart of Vermiel is a pink crystal, broken into four pieces, which is believed to be [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin the heart of the dragon, Vermiel]]. Each piece offers more power to the bearer, but also influences them to act on their more bestial impulses and further transforms them into Vermiel himself. [[spoiler:When the four pieces are finally united in one person, it's indicated that the bearer's personality remains present in the body, melded with Vermiel]].
* {{Kaiju}}: When fully empowered by the heart, Mirabelle is the size of a building, correspondingly strong and tough, and breathes pink flame.
* SealedEvilInASixPack: The Heart of Vermiel has been split into four pieces. The bearers will be influenced to find and unite the other pieces.
