3	An author-admitted SelfInsertFic pertaining to Franchise/ResidentEvil. It can be found [[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/6585711/1/Things_Better_Left_Untouched here]]. The basic premise is the same as most other [[SelfInsertFic Self Insert Fics]], where the character, Anita Reyes, knows about what's going to happen, because of being a fan of the series. The twist comes in the form that it's also an author-stated {{Deconstruction}} of the basic concept. It has since been deleted by the author.

6	!!Tropes in this work include:
7
8	* AgentScully: Nobody in their right mind would believe they were in a fictional work off the bat.
9	%%* AttackOfTheFiftyFootWhatever: The Stinger and Centurion, offscreen.
10	%%* BeigeProse: At first.
11	* BilingualDialogue: Anita sometimes slips into Spanish. It's translated just afterward.
12	* BodyHorror: [[spoiler: Rebecca gets covered in acid burns because of a [[DemonicSpider Leech Zombie]]. Think about that for a second.]]
13	* CassandraTruth: The idea that Anita is from a dimension/universe where what's currently happening is a video game series. The writing goes out of the way to point out that it's more reasonable to think she's an Umbrella employee, since she knows the layout of the buildings, where the [=BOWs=] are, how to kill them, and the solutions to the puzzles.
14	%%* CrypticConversation
15	%%* EyeScream: [[spoiler: Anita gets clawed in the face by the Prototype Tyrant of VideoGame/ResidentEvil0.]]
16	%%* FireForgedFriends: Rebecca and Billy.
17	* ForWantOfANail: So far, [[spoiler: because of Anita's involvement, Enrico got killed by James Marcus instead of Wesker and Rebecca gets covered in acid burns. Rebecca doesn't get involved in the Mansion Incident and Billy ends up sticking around instead of ditching town.]]
18	* GratuitousSpanish: Anita and, strangely, [[VideoGame/ResidentEvilOutbreak George Hamilton]]
19	* INeverToldYouMyName: Not specifically names, but information only a few people would know in the first place.
20	* PlotArmor: Anita [[LampshadeHanging mentions it by name]] when referring to how Billy and Rebecca didn't get injured in the train crash.
21	%%* RunningGag: [[VideoGame/ResidentEvil4 "Psychic powers"]]
22	** "How do you know that?" (Or some variation.)
23	%%* SelfInsertFic: {{Deconstruction}}

32	* ShownTheirWork: It's entirely possible to get a concussion on top of a concussion, and it's ''very, very bad''.
