144* BigDamnHeroes: Erik pulls this off to save Socks and Disbelief from [[spoiler:Blank]].
145* BigRedButton: While the color is unclear, the "Team Curiosity Scramble Button" seems to fit.
146* CharacterTitle: [[http://asherhyder.deviantart.com/art/Roommates-545-Blank-620969150 Page 545]]: [[spoiler:Blank]]
147* DroolHello: [[spoiler:Blank]] does this to Disbelief
148* EarlyBirdCameo: [[spoiler:Blank]] first appeared in the cover page ''[[http://bookwormgal.deviantart.com/art/Roommates-Conceptualize-549252894 Conceptualize]]''
149* EnemyMine: There seems to be a slight hint of this between Story and Disbelief and Socks/[[spoiler:Fanon]] when it comes to [[spoiler:Blank]].
150** Story also tries to team up with Erik against the new threat, though there seems to be some insincerity on its part...
151* GoThroughMe: Socks pulls this off to try and protect Disbelief.
152* LetsSplitUpGang: James makes this suggestion in order to look for Jareth.
153* OhCrap: Tony, Christian, and Ariadne all have this expression when they encounter [[spoiler:Blank]] and Jareth has it when he senses something is coming, but that also that "there's nothing there."
154** James has this reaction when Socks tells him that [[spoiler:Blank is targeting "the imaginative. The ones who create."]]
155* RedAlert: Tony tries to warn everyone about [[spoiler:Blank]], but he gets [[{{Subverted}} stopped before he can reach the button]].
156* RuleOfThree: Harry compels [[spoiler:Blank]] to identify itself thrice. In his [[Literature/TheDresdenFiles series]], any magical being who is asked something three times has to answer.
157* ScrewThisImOutOfHere: Roy's decision when he catches a glimpse of something creepy up in the catwalk above the stage is to grab the kids and run.
158* SilenceIsGolden: There is no dialogue or sound effects for "Syncopation," "Crescendo," "al niente," "Creation," and "Restart."
159* StealthHiBye: Erik winds up on the receiving end of one of these for a change, thanks to Story.
160* TemptingFate: Jareth says his wards will ensure that "nothing magical is getting in without a key." A few panels later and [[spoiler:Blank]] is staring at the Building.
161** James suggests [[LetsSplitUpGang splitting up]] during a crisis.
162* TooSpicyForYogSothoth: Javert apparently doesn't fit [[spoiler:Blank]]'s desires and gets rejected when he/she/it tried to target him.
163* VisualPun: When asked to identify itself, [[spoiler:Blank]]'s speech bubbles are filled with blank sheets of paper and new document files with no writing yet.
164* WhamLine: This one in [[http://www.deviantart.com/art/Roommates-556-Target-635406615 556 Target]].
165-->'''Socks''': Don't you see the pattern? The ones its going after? What they have in common? Roy... Alexandria... Jareth... Lady Sarah... [[spoiler:It wants the imaginative. The ones who create.]]
166* WillingChanneler: When the threat is deemed to be great enough, [[spoiler: Erik plays host to Story and Music at the same time.]]
167* TheWorfEffect: [[spoiler:Blank]] attacks the Erlkonig with no issue on the first page of the arc.
