* FateWorseThanDeath: The entire reason Deadmega spared Ring Master.
* GreyAndGrayMorality: Surprisingly a lot of it. Unlike with Gravestone, the group wasn't fighting to stop a villain from killing everyone or ruining the world. Most were only fighting to save themselves, or because Ring Master attacked them first. Several characters showed intent in killing Ring Master before realizing that they should probably follow everyone else and spare him.

The next few days the group spent cleaning up parts of the fair. A short fair was also held after for Hysteria and a few other ink creatures that weren't allowed to come.

* TheReveal: Roughly three days before the fair, Ufo got sick of Ring Master's possession of Mettaton, and decided to remove the mask when the three were alone. What none of them were counting on was the fact that Ring Master's screaming upon being removed attracted a small crowd. Divine, Inky, Cammy, and Frisk all showed up and saw Ring Master take on his own physical form and steal Mettaton's soul core, to which he had them all swear that they would remain silent.
** This also happened a second time in the Grand Finale. When Sans broke his remote detonator, Ring Master deserted his act and revealed his true intentions of murder, and even unintentionally showed everyone his true form-or lack of one. Dapster was the only one who seemed not to get it this time around, but that may be because Dapster thinks RousseauWasRight.

Mettaton's Fair was an event held by [[http://somber-fabbot.tumblr.com/ somber-fabbot]] where various blogs came and either held events during the fair, or explored others' events. Blog muses were to enjoy themselves and take the chance to interact with other muses they otherwise would've have gotten the chance to spoken to, as well as blog mods. The moderator of somber-fabbot created a chat for the members to talk while leading up to the event.
The event started when a murderous mask possessed Mettaton with the intent to kill a large group of muses. In true Mettaton fashion, he decided it needed to be showy, and arranged a fair to gather a crowd. Characters flocked to join the fair. Ring Master Mettaton kept a watch over the chat, and the shenanigans that took place in it.
----
!! [Mettaton's Fair] contains examples of:
* AffablyEvil: Ring Master. He steals people's souls and exhausts the energy to free his own power, which, depending on your view, either forces the soul into the after life, or ''out right destroys the soul.'' He's also polite and perfectly willing to sit and speak with others so long as they aren't interrupting any plans he has. He will play mind games with you and twist your view of the world and yourself, and he will also sit and drink tea with you without so much as a bad word uttered.
* ElementalPowers: Ring Master, in a strange case. He is a shadow elemental, but most of his powers are locked away in a mask that he was sealed in.
* EvilMask: Subverted in that it's not the ''mask'' that's evil, it's Ring Master who happens to be sealed in it, and whether or not he's truly evil is up for debate.
* FamilyValuesVillain: Ring Master. He has no qualms with violently murdering someone or trying to turn a group of monsters and humans into carnage as long as it doesn't interrupt any plans of his, but say a swear around him and he'll be more than happy to remind you who's really in charge. Doubly so if there's a child around.
* TheFourthWallWillNotProtectYou: Ring Master, while not always seeming like it, is a very meta villain. He moderates the chat for the event more than the actual chat creator does, and will pop in to remind the "humuns" who's really in charge.
** Even his creator has stated that they are afraid of him.

* LeakingCanOfEvil: Ring Master is still sealed in his mask, but he can use what little power he has access to to siphon energy from people who wear it, as well as possess them.
** Now he can actually walk around with a physical form due to how much power he's regained. Though he's still technically sealed in the mask.
* MaskofPower: The mask that holds Ring Master.

Ring Master Mettaton seeing as he was the one running the fair as Mettaton, and [[spoiler: The Boogeyman]] since, in his weaker state, he [[spoiler: stole people away to steal their soul energy without being interrupted, which lines up with the children's stories of The Boogeyman stealing away people who stayed out too late.]]
* MurderousMask: Ring Master's mask. Save for Mettaton, everyone who's worn it so far has been killed by him.
* RightUnderTheirNoses: Most of those attending the fair didn't know Ring Master was actually a bad guy until the finale. Those who did were Ufo, who caught on to his act immediately, and the few who saw his reveal upon the hill.
** This goes for the muns as well; apparently about half of them didn't realize that there was a villain in the event until the hill reveal.
* ThingsThatGoBumpInTheNight: Surprisingly, The Boogeyman shows up. [[spoiler: It's Ring Master himself.]]
