* AdaptationalNameChange: In this fic, Sebastian Shaw's son is named Sean Shaw. This is because the author thinks [[https://forum.questionablequesting.com/threads/confused-and-dazed-au-x-men-evo-spider-man-sorta.14178/page-15#post-4240774 it makes more sense]] for a status obsessed, petty, rich asshole like Sebastian to name his son with a more normal sounding name than Shinobi.

** In this timeline, Rogue's real name is Anne Marie instead of Anna Marie, because ''WesternAnimation/XMenEvolution'' [[https://forum.questionablequesting.com/threads/confused-and-dazed-au-x-men-evo-spider-man-sorta.14178/page-23#post-6370944 never actually revealed her name]], so the author decided to change it up a little.

These examples of Surprisingly Realistic Outcome seem to violate at least one of these rules, which disqualifies them: No character reactions (characters get angry, don't forgive, don't change their personality instantly, etc.); Too fantastical (depends on the properties of magic, powers, sci-fi tech, monsters, etc.); Not surprising (a character was warned about the outcome, it's used to provide Karma or An Aesop, or it simply follows normal conventions for this genre or medium); Plot happens (the example only describes an event, but not why audiences would expect a different, unrealistic outcome); Not an outcome (a character just explains why something wouldn't work as expected); More of a Deconstruction (the event has major, lasting effects on the plot, make something more realistic, but not completely realistic, or a parody/fanwork applies realistic consequences to the events of a different work); or fits better under a different trope. See the trope's definition for more details. If you believe a removal was a mistake, please bring it up in the cleanup thread.

* MeaningfulRename: Some mutants take on self given names to symbolize leaving their human lives behind when they became mutants.
--> Peter, Jean, Kurt and even Anne Marie and herself… they all self-identified by their given names. Emma thought of herself as ‘Emma’. Their normal names. ''Human'' names.\\
These mutants, however, identified with their self-given mutant names even in their mind’s eye. Caliban, Duke, Frog-man, Callisto. They had bought into lines of thought from old pro-Mutant Rhetoric that Emma had come across in a few others she had encountered either at college or at the Club. People who had subscribed to the belief that to be a mutant meant leaving your old human self behind so that you could be reborn and take your place with your mutant brothers and sisters.

--> Emma’s expression had remained flat and completely unamused through the entire exchange. For his part, Peter was doing his best to keep his expression neutral, but he had to admit he alternately found the woman fascinating in a sort of helpless bumbling sort of way and maddening for the very same reason. Even without Emma’s input, he could tell she was trying her best to be charming and intriguing, but it was falling flat. Rather than coming off as a sultry minx, it was closer to watching a clumsy kitten stumble off of the edge of the couch, fall flat on its face, then pretend that everything went exactly as planned.
