History Webcomic / AwfulHospital

* AmbiguouslyEvil: Pretty much ''everyone'' and ''everything'' save for Fern. [[spoiler: And Staph and Maggie.]]

* YouGottaHaveBlueHair: Fern appears with blue hair when the comic temporarily becomes a dating sim. There's also a minor background character that's literally just pink hair (and fancies herself the "true main character" of the comic)

* NoNameGiven: The protagonist, hence the FanNickname "Ms. Green".
** [[spoiler: Ms. Green now [[http://www.bogleech.com/awfulhospital/433.html has an official name]]- Fern.]]

* FictionAsCoverUp: Though they aren't mentioned by brand name, it turns out VideoGame/{{Tamagotchi}} are actually remote infant-care devices, that secretly allow humans to become caretakers to alien babies. In the Hospital, these devices are called "egglets."

* HorrorDoesntSettleForSimpleTuesday: On Easter Day, 2018: [[spoiler: Good news: when Fern puts the [[VideoGame/{{VideoGame/Tamagotchi}} egglet]] of a slob-infected infant in her son's old "boo boo bunny," the baby's saved because the slob disease transfers from the egglet into the toy bunny: the first-ever case in Awful Hospital of anyone being CURED of the slob condition! Bad news: the toy transforms into a giant slob-bunny monstrosity, and heads right for Fern and her friends.]] And Bogleech ONLY did this BECAUSE it happened to be Easter!

** Fern promises to make "barfing noises" for Willis after he does the voice for Dr. Phage's bow-tie deliveryman. Sixty or so pages later, she completes her bargin by throwing up at the sight of the dolphin eating the poisoned kids meal, [[https://bogleech.com/awfulhospital/767.html much to Willis' delight]].

* BigBadEnsemble: The Parliament are the bad guys responsible for setting up the main plot, but they are ''not'' the only game in town, with the Dolphins being more dangerous and evil ''by far''.

** Fern picks up a rubber duck outside of Dr. Man's office on [[https://bogleech.com/awfulhospital/114.html page 114]]. Almost six-hundred pages later (''four years'' in RealLife), her and Willis use it to [[https://bogleech.com/awfulhospital/707.html lure Dr. Phage out of his office]].

* BrickJoke: [[RealLife YEARS]] can sometimes pass between Fern picking up some [[http://www.bogleech.com/awfulhospital/114.html silly item]] and her finally putting it to [[http://www.bogleech.com/awfulhospital/trap9.html hilarious use.]]

->''"Back in the hall, you take a moment to reflect on what you've been through so far. You woke up mere moments ago in a strange place, full of strange things. Some of them want to hurt you, but they don't even sound like they're aware of it. Other things, apparently, are on your side. It feels too real to be a delusion, but it doesn't feel like the "right kind" of real. You can worry about what planet you're on later, though; some of the things here may or may not have taken your child from you and are going to do who the hell knows what in the name of some crackpot mockery of medicine."''

* AppearanceIsInTheEyeOfTheBeholder: Applies to everyone to varying degrees, especially when the people involved are from different zones. Everyone has a "perception sphere", which is basically the sum of reality they perceive, understand, and interact with. Outside the grayzone, and to some degree even inside, even when people see the same entity, their context for it can be very different. In Fern's eyes, Willis is tiny, while Isaac's eyes can see something bigger. When Fern sees an advertisement cardboard cutout, Isaac sees a fleshy version representing the Parliament's influence over it.

* ARareSentence: ''Awful Hospital'' is rife with these!
--> '''Fern''': He turned into a dolphin and tried to eat the universe. Or something.
--> '''Dr. Man''': Mmmmm, yes, sounds rather like the sort of thing the brash lad might get up to.
--> '''Fern''': We'd found some… thing… some red thing. I don't remember what they called it, but I think it's what brought my corpses back to life. I can't believe I'm saying this.

** It's revealed that the multiverse as a whole originated from one that died and crumbled into many, many pieces that eventually formed the Zones.

One day, an ordinary woman's infant son becomes ''hellishly'' sick, and his condition progressively worsens no matter what she or other doctors try. After her latest desperate attempt at saving her baby, the woman suddenly awakens in a strange transdimensional hospital of nightmarishly cartoonish design overseen by the dangerously inept and insufferably egotistical Dr. H.M. Phage, T.E., an anthropomorphic bowtie-collecting virus. With only the aid of countless invisible entities setting up camp in her mind and whispering to her various (often bizarre and/or nonsensical) instructions and directives, the woman must face insane alien doctors of dubious qualification and stability, sanity-shattering worlds and beings, and rude, talking body parts who spout terrible puns in her desperate search for her son's whereabouts. The woman's predicament becomes more complicated as she ends up uncovering the dark secrets revolving around the hospital's deteriorating condition and the origins of reality as we know it, and eventually her infant's connections to a universe-destroying force of evil.

** The Cafe... is normal. Customers pick what they want to drink, and the Cafe workers serve it to them in exchange for money. Much like on Earth.

** The Plank Maze consists of the skeletal remains of much that the Parliament has destroyed. It is unusual even by Zonal standards, operating on very different logic, making it possible to recover traces of what has been {{Ret Gone}}d.
