History Tropers / Sikon

A somewhat idealistic geeky 26-year-old Russian (though not considering herself culturally Russian), full-time programmer and part-time troper, with a penchant for SpeculativeFiction, roleplaying, free software, long-winded {{Seinfeldian Conversation}}s, and [[SubvertedTrope breaking patterns]] in people's minds to force them to think outside the box. Particularly interested in personal identity and especially gender identity, for [[{{Transsexual}} reasons]].

Also known as ''lucidfox'', except for this wiki, because I created this account before changing to the new nickname everywhere else.

Since finding this wiki, I tend to overanalyze stuff. Especially of interest to me are TheOldestOnesInTheBook and subversions.

Tropes that apply or seem to apply to me:
* BewareTheNiceOnes
* BluntMetaphorsTrauma: sometimes occurs with English metaphors I'm unfamiliar with as a non-native speaker
* BrutalHonesty (and BewareTheHonestOnes)
* BunnyEarsLawyer
* CatchPhrase: changed many over the years.
* {{Cloudcuckoolander}}
* CovertPervert
* CreekMoment: Happens distirbungly often after I work on a certain problem for hours to no avail.
* EloquentInMyNativeTongue: inverted; I often speak my native language (Russian) clumsily because I ''think in English'' and sometimes don't know Russian translations of certain English words, and because it's harder to dance around gender-specific grammar in Russian.
* FacePalm
* FascinatingEyebrow
* GrammarNazi: for both Russian and English.
* PickyEater: I only eat a rather narrow selection of foods.
* {{Pollyanna}}: most of the time, although when I do snap from the overwhelming circumstances, it's not a pretty sight.
* PuttingOnMyThinkingCap: walking around the apartment.
* RousseauWasRight
* SecretIdentityIdentity
* SpockSpeak and SesquipedalianLoquaciousness: I love talking like that, along with the occasional ExpospeakGag. And I can't bring myself to use slang words even in contexts where it would make the most sense.
* TranquilFury
* WhatIsThisFeeling
* WideEyedIdealist
* WriteWhoYouKnow
* [[YuriFanboy Yuri Fangirl]]

Personal DisContinuity:
* ''{{Stargate SG-1}}'' has eight seasons. The Ori were Daniel's bad dream, and Ben Browder and Claudia Black most definitely never starred in ''Fargate FG-1'' or ''Starscape SS-1''. Also, no Stargate episodes are named "Emancipation", "Brief Candle" or "Bane", and alternate universes and time travel don't exist.
* ''Series/DoctorWho'': Rose is still stuck in the AlternateUniverse and will forever be. The Doctor will never meet her again, much to the relief of certain viewers who were almost ready to accuse RTD of selling out to the shippers. Oh, and series 5 and beyond are a weird dream by the real (female) Eleventh Doctor.
* ''VideoGame/MassEffect3'': I actually [[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/7941849/1/Priority-Crucible wrote an alternate ending]] for it, ignoring the official one.
* ''Franchise/{{Terminator}}'': There was no TV series. Some less-than-bright writer pitched one, but was pointed out how it ruins the nicely-established interlocking temporal anomalies of the movie trilogy.
* ''VideoGame/NeverwinterNights2'': The companions from the original campaign all survived the collapse. Ammon Jerro has either been implanted false memories or is intentionally lying to the PC.
* ''Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion'': Instrumentality failed. No matter how.
* ''[[Series/StargateUniverse SG.U]]'' is a bad dream. I refuse to call that show "Stargate".
* ''Disney/{{Tangled}}'': [[strike:[[VideoGame/BioShockInfinite Elizabeth]]]] Rapunzel cut off her own hair before Eugene even thought of doing it for her. I might get to writing down this alternate ending.
* ''VideoGame/WorldOfWarcraft'': The Lich King is dead. Happy end. ...What is this "Cataclysm" you speak of?

<<|TheContributors|>>

A somewhat idealistic geeky 23-year-old Russian (and completely unlike [[HuskyRusskie this]]), full-time programmer and part-time troper, with a penchant for SpeculativeFiction, roleplaying, free software, long-winded {{Seinfeldian Conversation}}s, and [[SubvertedTrope breaking patterns]] in people's minds to force them to think outside the box. Particularly interested in personal identity and especially gender identity, for [[{{Transsexual}} reasons]].

Also known as [=LucidFox=] -- I use the two nicks somewhat interchangeably depending on which one is taken on a particular website.

* BerserkButton: triggered by gender/sexuality/nationality-based bigotry. But an even bigger one is triggered by attacks on free/open source software, or DRM supporters.

* WhileRomeBurns: I'm so indifferent to politics that a military junta could come to power tomorrow and I wouldn't bat an eye as long as everything around me stays basically the same.

* ''StarWars'': Nothing, because the setting has been so ridiculous from the start that even such gems as Mount Sorrow or Waru can't possibly hurt it any more.
* ''DoctorWho'': Rose is still stuck in the AlternateUniverse and will forever be. The Doctor will never meet her again, much to the relief of certain viewers who were almost ready to accuse RTD of selling out to the shippers. Oh, and series 5 and beyond are a weird dream by the real (female) Eleventh Doctor.
