2 | * '''Straight''': After being exposed to a [[GreenRocks radioactive meteor]], Alice grows to 50 feet tall. |
3 | * '''Exaggerated''': After being exposed to a [[GreenRocks radioactive meteor]], Alice becomes bigger than the Earth itself. |
4 | * '''Downplayed''': After being exposed to a [[GreenRocks radioactive meteor]], Alice grows to twice her own size (11 feet tall). |
5 | * '''Justified''': |
6 | ** Growing to an enormous height is Alice's superpower. |
7 | ** Or the radioactive meteor can make ANYONE grow to 50 feet. |
8 | * '''Inverted''': After being exposed to a radioactive meteor, Alice [[IncredibleShrinkingMan shrinks to a doll size]]. |
9 | * '''Subverted''': After a short time, Alice shrinks back to her normal height. |
10 | * '''Double Subverted''':...but she starts growing again soon after. |
11 | * '''Parodied''': |
12 | ** Alice suffers ClothingDamage from her increased size, and desperately tries to hide her giant self from prying eyes. |
13 | ** Alice fights a giant, fire-breathing hamster. |
14 | ** A 50-foot specimen of a "whatever" attacks Alice's city. |
15 | ** The "whatever" is something ridiculous like a roll of toilet paper or a slice of pizza. |
16 | * '''Zig Zagged''': |
17 | ** Alice goes through a series of growing and shrinking spurts. |
18 | ** YourSizeMayVary |
19 | * '''Averted''': After Alice was exposed to a radioactive meteor, nothing happened. |
20 | * '''Enforced''': "We need a transformation sequence, but I can't be bothered to design a new animal. Let's just make her bigger!" |
21 | * '''Lampshaded''': "I suppose now you expect me to [[KingKongClimb climb up a building and fight some airplanes?]]" |
22 | * '''Invoked''': Alice develops a chemical that will make her grow. |
23 | * '''Exploited''': Bob sees Alice growing and immediately calls the army claiming an unrelated disaster, knowing that the growth could cause issues. |
24 | * '''Defied''': After a meteor falls near her, Alice runs away fearing that it may be radioactive, causing her some mutation. |
25 | * '''Discussed''': "Gee, that radioactive meteor looks like the kind of thing that creates giant monsters." |
26 | * '''Conversed''': "Wow, Alice became a giantess from that radioactive meteor. [[SarcasmMode Never seen]] ''[[SarcasmMode that]]'' [[SarcasmMode one before]]." |
27 | * '''Implied''': Alice has been reported missing, there is a giant hole through her roof, and ginormous footprints have been found in the local area. |
28 | * '''Deconstructed''': |
29 | ** Due to Alice's enormous size, she's treated as a monster by everybody, despite being just a very big girl. The government wants to kill her even if she hasn't harmed anybody. This prompts Alice to become resentful and [[RoaringRampageOfRevenge hate the human race, going on a rampage, ravaging several cities in the process]], until she's taken down by military forces. |
30 | ** Due to the SquareCubeLaw, Alice's massive size causes her serious health problems and even a small fall for her causes massive injuries; Scientists realise that unless this is reversed soon, she will most likely die from her condition. |
31 | * '''Reconstructed''': |
32 | ** Alice uses her size to help people, such as rescuing people from burning buildings, capturing criminals effortlessly and making her town a better place, earning everybody's gratitude and respect. |
33 | ** Or, to compensate for the SquareCubeLaw, Alice becomes exponentially ''[[RequiredSecondaryPowers stronger]]'', meaning that she can support her own weight. |
34 | * '''Played For Laughs''': |
35 | ** Nobody can fall asleep around Alice, because her snoring is as loud as a jet engine. |
36 | ** Bob is wondering where the sounds of thunder are coming from when the sky is clear and blue. It turns out it was just Alice's [[GrowlingGut stomach rumbling]], because she was hungry. |
