The Dresden Files Tropes N-Z Discussion
When I was gathering examples for Out Of The Frying Pan in ykttw, someone said it happened a lot in Dresden Files but wouldn't give me any specific details. So I used what they said to write up a vague example. More details or corrections would be appreciated.
Is "Vader syndrome", as Harry defines it in Dead Beat when the Wardens recruit him to boost morale, already a trope? Because if not, we should create one and give TDF Trope Namer status.
Hey Lucy Zephyr, I'd be happy to discuss the Rape As Drama entry.
Really, there's nothing there to heavily imply that Harry or Justine was raped. Yes, Harry talks about how horrible the experience was, about how it was physically and emotionally unpleasant, and how it was monstrous and done by monsters, but nothing sexually specific. Even without getting into random and bizarre theories I can think of plenty of tortures that can be done that would match all his exposition without being rape. Rape would certainly fit as well, and I think it would be just like the Red Court to brutalize him like that and I'm not saying it wasn't rape, just that nothing there says it was rape, and we can't put our own theories onto the article without some kind of support.
