Copied examples from Hiveswap Friendsim's page


* HeroOfAnotherStory: They serve as the protagonist of the ''Hiveswap Friendsim'', in which they crash-land their rocket on Alternia and decide to make friends with the trolls they come across.

to:

* ExtremeDoormat: The MSPA Reader is one to quite a few characters. Often, the good endings in VisualNovel/HiveswapFriendsim are caused from the choice which involves doing what they want. However, sometimes this can be misleading, [[ViolationOfCommonSense and you may have to do the option you think they wouldn't like you to do]] instead.
* HeroOfAnotherStory: They serve as the protagonist of the ''Hiveswap Friendsim'', in which they crash-land their rocket on Alternia and decide to make friends with the trolls they come across. across.
* IJustWantToHaveFriends: The MSPA Reader's motivation. In VisualNovel/HiveswapFriendsim it’s revealed in [[spoiler:the epilogue that this entire drive was artificially created by Doc Scratch]].
* IronButtMonkey: The MSPA Reader gets many injuries, some of which are healed, others of which are not. Despite this, they survive and [[{{Determinator}} don't let it stop them in their quest for friendship]].
* LoserProtagonist: In VisualNovel/HiveswapFriendsim many of the trolls are quite cheerfully open that they think you're this, it's probably because you naturally lack social skills for an alien world, and are also physically weaker than most trolls, especially in the earlier volumes where the Reader has sustained numerous injuries and broken bones.



* TheOutsiderBefriendsTheBest: In VisualNovel/HiveswapFriendsim the main goal of the game is the MSPA Reader's friendship with trolls, both [[FantasticRacism highblooded and lowblooded]]. And they do manage to make friends with many highblooded trolls, including [[AbhorrentAdmirer Zebruh Codakk]], [[AxCrazy Ardata Carmia]] and [[AmbiguouslyEvil Marvus Xoloto]]. {{Subverted|Trope}}, [[spoiler:as [[WalkingSpoiler Doc]] [[{{TheChessmaster}} Scratch]] brainwashed the characters and changed the timelines so that this could happen]].

to:

* ScrewThisImOuttaHere: In VisualNovel/HiveswapFriendsim and VisualNovel/{{Pesterquest}} the MSPA Reader does this quite a few times:times:
** One path of Chahut's route involves her and Amisia killing a Bronzeblood who Amisia trapped. The MSPA Reader is so annoyed at this point with how murderous trolls can be that they decide to leave.
** This can also happen in Volume 11. In Mallek's route, if the Reader hesitantly greets him, they will be worried that he might harm them and jumps out of the moving vehicle, harming themself instead. Meanwhile, Lynera's route gives the Reader the option to [[spoiler:cut the ropes Lynera has tied them to a chair with]]. If they do this, they will run off after getting her to give them their phone back.
** The Reader does this again in Nihkee's bad ending after [[spoiler:having visions of the bad ends of previous routes, combined with what appears to be visions of would happen if they returned to her]].
** The Reader tries to do this in the Soleil Twin's route after seemingly being stuck in a repeating time loop. They manage to escape from the house, but no matter where they go, they keep coming across it again.

Added examples from the Pesterquest page

Added DiffLines:

* NiceJobBreakingItHero: In VisualNovel/{{Pesterquest}} during Karkat's route, when [[spoiler: a drone shows up in his neighbourhood]], he tells the Reader to stay with him. Doing so results in [[spoiler: the drone detecting them both, as their presence was stronger when they were hiding together, resulting in Karkat's hive being destroyed, his lusus dying, and him being discovered thanks to his symbol and the Reader's blood getting on him, and drones keep coming after him everywhere they zap to]].


Added DiffLines:

* RightForTheWrongReasons: The MSPA Reader correctly thinks that the stuffed corpse in Jane's living room is John. What they don't know is that it's not the same John they befriended, believing that they've travelled to the future rather than an Alternate Timeline. In Roxy's route, after meeting post-Scratch Rose, who doesn't know them, they come to the conclusion that they're in another universe, which is a bit closer to the truth.


Added DiffLines:

* ScrewThisImOuttaHere: In VisualNovel/{{Pesterquest}} the MSPA Reader does this quite a few times:
** In Dave's route, they leave when he spends too much time questioning his sexuality.
** In Karkat's route, when the two of them are hiding from a drone, they can escape by zapping over to Dave's home. Unlike most examples, this leads to the good ending.
** In Vriska's route, they can leave if they're too grossed out by the grubs Vriska uses to play FLARP with.
** Aradia's route, when they tell her they don't believe in ghosts, her reaction is to suddenly stop being cheerful and [[spoiler: pretend to be her ghost self]]. The Reader is so scared by this that they leave. [[spoiler: And then she rewinds to before that point]].
*** Aradia herself does it if [[spoiler: you keep choosing the first option even after the second option appears]].
** The Reader has to do this in Eridan's route during [[spoiler: the fight with Sollux]] to save themself. [[spoiler: Thankfully, Eridan isn't too badly hurt because of his toughness as a highblood]].
** They do this again in Feferi's route when they find that the bubble she made for them is running out of air. If they zap away, they'll realise that zapping back will just bring them back to the same problem, and decide not to return.


Added DiffLines:

* SuddenlySpeaking: In VisualNovel/{{Pesterquest}} Equius' route has a variant - when the MSPA Reader messages Karkat to prove to Equius that they know him, their messages are actually seen rather than narrated. The Reader types with proper capitalization and punctuation, and no typing quirks, as they do in their narration.
