History FanFic / Synesthesia

* AmbiguousSituation: It's not clear whether [[spoiler: Coil actually released the Empires secret identities or if Tattletale did it before he could and then [[FrameUp framed Coil.]] Either way the bastard [[KickTheSonOfABitch deserved it.]]]]

* TheHero: Taylor, in her role as the Composer, can be seen as this.

* AsskickingEqualsAuthority: By virtue of being the most powerful Reaper thanks to ComboPlatterPowers and the founder of the movement, Taylor/The Composer is the de-facto leader of the Reapers.

* AwesomeMcCoolName: The name the gang Taylor made took. They're known as the Reapers.
** Taylor's own parahuman name might count - the Composer is pretty impressive sounding.

* ComboPlatterPowers: The Composer has this UpToEleven, even by Worm standards. An incomplete list includes; SuperStrength, [[TeleportersAndTransporters teleportation]], {{flight}}, [[PlayingWithFire pyrokinesis]], [[HandBlast projectiles]], [[SuperSenses enhanced hearing]], [[SummonMagic summoning the Noise]] and [[SuperEmpowering the ability to grant some of those powers to anyone]] via PowerTattoo. [[spoiler: And of course, her Noelle Clone has all the same powers.]]

[[http://forums.sufficientvelocity.com/threads/synesthesia-worm-the-world-ends-with-you.4354/ Synesthesia]] is a fanfic cross between {{Literature/Worm}} and [[VideoGame/TheWorldEndsWithYou The World Ends With You]]. It involves Taylor, the main character from Worm, gaining powers inspired by the Composer from TWEWY and using them to gift powers to others, forming a "gang" of sorts known as the Reapers, who spraypaint art around town and can summon Noise for use in combat.

* ALighterShadeOfBlack: The Composer recognizes that the capes in the Empire, Merchants, etc., are human beings with people they care about despite their actions, and considers them not the true monsters that Nilbog and the Nine are. This is part of the reason she's trying to find middle ground between them and the other factions.

* WorfEffect: Lung, the baddest foe in the area, got his ass kicked when the Reapers first fought him.

!!"Synesthesia contains examples of:"

* BlankSlate: It's implied that his drawn out battle with Psychedelic, this happened to Oni Lee. It's also implied Psycho being there for him and understanding what he went through is what caused Oni Lee to latch on to him.

* KleptomaniacHero: Hip and Hop, two of Taylor's five lieutenant, have rather...sticky fingers.

* LeapOfFaith: Paige deciding to escape PRT custody with Chigaco in Sonata 7

* TheStoic: Psychodelic. [[spoiler: Taylor may or may not have damaged his brain when she gave him his Noise powers, as he received an experimental batch.]]

** MeaningfulName: None of the names are given at random. The Composer is the leader of the Reapers and composes the Noises and Melodies, Southern is a former pig farmer from Texas, Grunge is a no-nonsense PRT officer, Gangsta is a black teenage rebel, Psychodelic has a few screws loose, Synth and Chiptune ate [=DJs=] and Chicago comes from the place.

* ScrewTheRulesImDoingWhatsRight: no matter the Composer's wishes, the Reapers ''will'' fight at her side. Counts as a CrowningMomentOfHeartwarming.
