Basic Trope: A character becomes sexually aroused when fighting.
- Straight: As Sally Manderine "Sallymander" and Master Death trade blows, Sally begins monologuing about how aroused she is.
- Exaggerated:
- Sally gains an uncontrollable urge to masturbate during a verbal dispute.
- Sally orgasms in the middle of her fight with Master Death
- Master Death immediately immediately tries to jump Sally's bones after defeating her... only to find out Sally is not only willing to be ravished by him, she's begging for it.
- Downplayed:
- Sally smirks when given a thinly veiled threat, as if she was hit on.
- Interplay of Sex and Violence
- Justified: Sally is mentally unstable Combat Sadomasochist with a Healing Factor.
- As a side effect of the experiments that gave Sally powers, her pleasure/pain/empathy/shadenfreud impulses have been altered causing arousal during a fight.
- Inverted: Sally finds herself increasingly aroused whenever she isn't fighting.
- Sally becomes disgusted when fighting.
- Subverted: Sally claims she is aroused as a means of throwing off Master Death.
- Double Subverted: ... But she actually is.
- Parodied: Sally begins dueling with her trainer behind closed doors. Fellow students flock by the dojo believed they are actually having sex. Turns out they're both Combat Sadomasochists
- Zig Zagged: ???
- Averted: Sally is not aroused by fighting.
- Enforced: "We need a quirk that's often Played for Laughs"
- Lampshaded: "Sally's kinda hot, but I wish she'd stop moaning every time we sparred. It's creepy"
- Invoked: "We need to make the fight scene between Master Death and Sally interesting..."
- Exploited: Emperor Evulz recruits Sally and makes her his Torture Technician. Since she enjoys harming people, it works as a means of psychological torture on her would-be victims.
- Defied: Sally thinks this will distract her, and decides to Think Unsexy Thoughts.
- Discussed: ???
- Conversed: "NO I DO NOT need to see close up pleasure faces during a fight scene what the fuck?"
- Played For Laughs: Sally and Bob get into an argument, when Bob threatens to hurt Sally she acts frisky as if they were about to hook up. Bob angrily explains that they are not about to sex while Sally keeps acting as though they are.
- Implied: Sally's grunts while fighting sound oddly sexual, and she licks some blood of her blade, but it's not clear why.
- Deconstructed: Sally's arousal while fighting makes her a liability, and she is taken away from the fighting to be psychologically evaluated.
- Reconstructed: Sally learns to turn it off while in a high-stakes fight, and fulfills her desires by playfighting with her lover.
