Line #96 Tropers/ChaoticNovelist


1	%%%%For my personal reference and ease of handling:
2
3	%%%%%%%%%%%% Before adding a trope, check its page to see if it should go in the Main or Trivia tabs instead.
4
5	%%% * Killed off for real is a trope for supernatural works where resurrection is possible.
6	%%%% Don't add it here please.
7
8
9	%% Examples with no context will be deleted.
10
11	%% TV Tropes is not a forum; don't start conversation in the main page.
12
13	%% Don't use words such as "recently," "lately," or "soon" when adding examples. They won't be recent for very long.
14
15	%%Don't spoiler trope names.
16
17	%% The numpad code to type an accented "e" (é) is Alt+130 in Windows.
18
19	%% Don't add And The Fandom Rejoiced. It's a SugarWiki page.
20
21	%% ZeroContextExample entries are not allowed on wiki pages. All such entries have been commented out. Add context to the entries before uncommenting them.
22	%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%"X has this" and "X and Y" etc. are not context.
23
24	%% Only one trope per line, and don't put tropes at secondary bullet points; not even subtropes. This is proper example indentation.
25
26	%% Badass has become a fanspeak term; no longer a trope. You can still use the word, of course, but don't pothole it anymore.
27
28	%%%% Don't pothole trope names. Use the straight trope name itself.
29
30	%%% Don't spoiler trope names.
31
32	%%%% "Deconstruction" does not mean "pain and tragedy". It is not the same as Dark and Edgy.
33
34
35	%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%Perfect timing, just before the treaty is signed. I noticed that the report didn't mention Cromwell's experiments with Necromancy. Please accept the following omake in the spirit in which it is given.

38	Nobody Smurf wrote this in a review. ch57.
39	-Mortimer writes a Letter-
40
41	To his Excellency, the Pope of the Brimiric Church,
42
43	Certain Rumours have recently come to our attention, and by rumours I mean the Eyewitness Testimony of one on whose Word I would stake my life, regarding certain Activities attributed to the Good Lord Cromwell in Albion. We are given to understand that while this individual is not a Subject of the Crown of Tristain, nor subordinate to any other authority in this Great Nation, he does claim to act on the Authority of the Holy Church of which you Lead, and as such we have been advised by the Esteemed Cardinal Mazarin to direct this missive to Yourself.
44
45	Certain of our People have inadvertently found themselves stranded in the Nation of Albion, which we are told is undergoing a Civil War. Thus swept up in that Unpleasant Business, we must sadly inform you that there were Fatalities. You can imagine our surprise when at a later date, two of our Lost Ones, believed Dead, turned up in service of the Reconquista. One of these in particular did merrily extol the "Virtues of serving the Founder in Death", all while brutally Murdering her erstwhile Compatriots. As even tearing out her Heart did not lay our former Daughter to her Eternal Rest, we are forced to conclude that her appearance of Life was but a Semblance.
46
47	While we Fae would welcome the Restoration of Life and Love as an Holy Miracle, the Desecration of our Dead as described above is roundly regarded by us as an Affront to Nature, an Unholy Abomination, and in all around Bad Taste. While we have been assured by the Good Cardinal that your Faith does not condone Necromancy, and while we do not wish to imply that Your Person was in any way Involved, we cannot let this Detestable Thing go unanswered. As such, we do officially lodge this Formal Complaint against such Practice as was committed against our People.
48
49	Yours respectfully, Lord Mortimer of the Salamanders, writing on behalf of the Fae Council.

53	%%%%%%%%%Rarity couldn't help but chuckle at the old stallion's flattery. "Shall we depart then?"
54
55	%%%%%%%%%%%Southern Comfort looked around. "Perhaps it's best if we slip out the back way, so as not to arouse unnecessary chatter," he said.
56
57	%%%%%%%%%%%%%"Indeed," Rarity said. One of the things she'd found as a newly minted princess was that the simple act of leaving a room could leave one entangled in complicated farewells if one allowed it. "Jade Blossom?" She said over her shoulder. The elegant bodyguard appeared at her elbow, making Southern Comfort jump in surprise.(1) "I'll be taking my leave in a moment... discreetly."
58
59	%%%%%%%%Jade nodded in understanding. She did not need to speak; It went without saying that she would have the covered carriage brought around back, or that she and the other ladies of the radiant guard would facilitate Rarity's departure by distracting the party guests with their graces and charm. Rarity's guardmares were trained at Celestia's own hoof; they were professionals at this sort of thing. Heck, they were the best.
60
61	%%%%%%"a charming accent that rolled back and forth casually like brandy in a snifter." Damn if that isn't one of the finest vocal descriptions I ever heard.
62	%%%%50% powdered sugar by body weight- Sounds like Pinkie Pie, but okay.
63	%%%%%Jade Blossom, Ninja Cowgirl... Sounds like a Nickelodeon cartoon, which, I might add, I WOULD TOTALLY WATCH.
64	%%%%%This is the side of Rarity I love- the lady who drops everything to visit a poorly child and drags all her friends into helping.

69	The Tease. "Kallen pecked her cheek and said, “Goodbye, honey. I'll be back in time for dinner.” Then she jumped out of the ship backwards. "
70
71
72	Flashback Echoes "Her hands shook. Her heart skipped a beat. The thoughts she suppressed returned with a vengeance! Surrounded by fog, factory ruined, mutations everywhere. Sister! Sister, help me! It hurts! Big sister! Kallen shook her head just in time to dodge the next acid spit. "
73
74
75
76	Mercy Kill " “You poor thing...” she muttered. “You won't be in pain for much longer.” "
77
78	My Greatest Second Chance " The image of Patrick Lumberson flashed through her mind. The image of her sister followed. Then a deluge of all the other people from Siduban whose lives she ended. She shook her head.
79
80	“No. Not this time. I can save him.”
81
82	“You can?”
83
84	“Yes. I can do this. I can do this. I can do this.”"
85
86
87	Straw Man " “Shadow, I’m sorry you’re so ugly. I shouldn’t have made you like that. It’s a reflection of my self-doubt and hatred. I didn’t think I could measure up to the real you, so I created a straw man to make myself feel better. From now on, no more mud flinging for me. You deserve better than that.” "
88
89
90
91	Cryptic Conversation "“I am nondescript. I am overlooked. I am hidden in plain sight. I am your true self revealed and concealed simultaneously. You will not truly know yourself until you find me, but with me, you cannot truly know yourself. Light the path until you see only darkness. If you can do this, then you will achieve true earthly enlightenment.” "
92
93
94	Make Them Rot as well as Rapid Aging "“Rot and decay. Rot and decay. Rot and decay. Rot and decay!”
95
96	It swung a scythe of warped wood and rusty metal into the symbol for infinity.
97
98	“The steady corrosion of the solid and the strong is perfectly suited to one such as you! A scavenger of spirits and drinker of dregs found rebirth in the ashes of the past. Surely it is no coincidence that of all the authorities of Death, you chose the one closest to Chaos!” "
99
100
101
102	White Coat of Medicine. "It was a green-haired person wearing a white coat and possessing certain characteristics that registered as “female. "
103
104
105
106	Is It Something You Eat " Kallen applauded. “Good, now let's go find him.” She stood up and walked to the door. “However, you might want to put some clothes on first.”
107
108	“What are clothes? Are they something to eat?”"
109
110
111
112
113
114	So Proud of You " Basilard tried to say something, but couldn't, and just held Eric tighter. The four of them remained in their embrace until Basilard was ready to speak.
115
116	“I'm so proud of you,” he said at last.
117
118	Eric smiled as a warm feeling filled his chest and belly. He set his head back against Basilard's tunic and it was soon as wet as his own"
119
120
121
122	%%%%When She Smiles "Eric told her, as best as he could remember, what he saw after he obliterated Mr.15. A smile bloomed across her face with every word he said. Not the mad-scientist grin he saw so often or the trickster-like smirk, but a true smile. She looked beautiful. "
123
124
125
126	%%%%Never Found the Body " “We never found his body, but that’s because you vaporized it. I asked BloodDrinker to sweep the mountain and it didn’t find anything that matched him personally. All it found was his clones, who had trace amounts sealed in their brains so he could control them.” "

131	I stumbled onto this site one day, I forget exactly how, and one of the first pages I read was {{FLCL}}. That should tell you all you need to know about my name. Though another early one was XanatosGambit....Anyway, since then I have struggled mightly to prevent TVTropes from ruining my life, and in fact, I found [[SugarWiki/TVTropesWillEnhanceYourLife the opposite to be true]]. I've learned so much about literary devices and story telling since coming to this site. Particularly vocabularly; it's easier to brainstorm now that I have quick references to character traits and plot elements.
132
