History FanFic / Cenotaph

* HoistByHisOwnPetard: [[spoiler: By disabling Skitter's power, Jack kept her from seeing the random bystanders shooting him with her swarm-sense and therefore wasn't warned by his secondary power.]]

** BroughtDownToBadass: [[spoiler: Jack Slash uses a power nullfier courtesy of Bonesaw to shut down Skitter's insect control for a one-on-one powerless fight. A fight between a man with full-body biotinker augumentations and 10 plus years of combat experience and a 15-year-old girl who just lost key elements of her fighting style. It's still an even fight.]]

** [[TheBluesBrothers I hate Illinois Nazis]][[{{Beat}} ...]] and the ones here too, I suppose.

* ShoutOut:

In this timeline, Taylor did not give Armsmaster a definitive answer following their pivotal meeting. Instead, he offers her a chance to test the waters, and see if she would be comfortable dealing with Protectorate oversight. Unfortunately, this quickly leads to tragedy. Taylor wakes up a month later, a [[spoiler: newly minted orphan]]. What follows is both an epic RoaringRampageOfRevenge, and a heartwarming exploration of Taylor's character, alongside the character of the Brockton Bay Wards, the Undersiders, and Taylor's other allies and enemies.

* MeaningfulEcho: Taylor to [[spoiler:Amy Dallon]], relating advice given to her early in the story, almost word for word. Taylor also gives [[spoiler:Amy Dallon]] the same lunchbox she'd been given at around that time, stuffed with money like it had been for her.

** Insight and Skotos' swearing-in ceremony is interrupted by [[spoiler: the arrival of the Nine]] much as Taylor's swearing-in to the Protectorate was interrupted by Golden Morning.

* BigDamnHeroes: Skitter [[spoiler: and Hookwolf]] are locked in a stalemate with [[Mannequin and Shatterbird]], only for a new combatant to step in and burn Shatterbird.

* ShoutOut: "But Crawler and the Siberian... nothing I could think of would stop them. We could entomb Crawler, probably. At which point he'd [[{{StarCraft}} evolve burrowing]], and then what?"

** In Cenotaph, Taylor was given a low Tinker rating- referencing Brian's comments in canon that her ability to create bug-themed equipment, or use her insects to create usful products, was a Tinker trait.
