History Fanfic / CorelineATaleOfTwoMaris

* ElsewhereFic: This story happens in parallel to ''RiseOfTheExtraordinaryAvengersCoreline''.

* NotSoDifferent: Turnot thinks that the Champions, the Justice League Unlimited and Avengers Infinity are all CorporateSponsoredSuperhero teams in one way or another (the Avengers get most of their gear and funding from [[ComicBook/IronMan Stark Industries]] while the Justice League gets most of its gear and funding from [[Franchise/{{Batman}} Wayne Enterprises]]), and thus the latter two groups are a bit hypocritical in "looking down their noses" at the Champions. Not to mention that these two groups have also had a history of bad things happening because of their sponsors, of Avengers teams doing missions that (unknown to them at the time) were in the interest of Stark, or the paranoia of one Alternate of Bruce Wayne or another acting up and making things difficult for the rest of the organization.

Currently under construction. Please add tropes as you see them!

* YouHaveGotToBeKiddingMe: Turnot's reaction to reading that Captain Makinami had handed a borderline CurbStompBattle to a team consisting of a Kryptonian, a DC-verse Martian, and a [[ComicBook/TheSubMariner Submariner]]-style human/mutant Atlantean hybrid.

* MagicDatabase: Turns out that [[Series/PersonOfInterest Project Northern Lights]] exists on the Core Timeline, and its objective nowadays is to be one of these with the location of every super-villain the United States Government can get the whereabouts of. It is consulted by Mari on the third chapter.

* OrgyOfEvidence: The various murders on the story are performed with techniques used by Cap Mari which are themselves unmistakable. The Indianapolis Champions look into the case because they are GenreSavvy enough to know that someone as skilled as the Captain would ''not'' use the techniques if she were looking to perform covert assassinations (as the police is being led to believe).

It is a few days before the Fourth of July, and things in Indianapolis are running smoothly (as smoothly as they can be Post-Vanishing, any case). Which is something that the Indianapolis Champions take with dome stride, even if they are a bit bored.

* WorfEffect: [[spoiler: Captain Makinami is beaten badly when Taskmaster Mari uses [[AmplifierArtifact materia]] to become too fast for Cap to defend against, just in time for the Champions to step in and save the day]].

* BrickJoke: When Uncle Steve briefs Mari on how she's suspected of murder, she mentions that the Extraordinary Avengers team could vouch for her, and asks how she could possibly get from Chicago to Indianapolis fast enough to commit the killings. Uncle Steve explains that there are Ferengi merchants in Chicago, marketing transporter technology, and reminds Mari that, with all of her SupernaturalMartialArts knowledge, she could have easily created a [[Anime/{{Naruto}} Shadow]] [[MesACrowd Clone]] to stand in for her. [[NiceJobBreakingItHero This is what gives Cap Mari the idea to actually do just that on the last two chapters...]].

* CurbStompBattle: [[spoiler: What the Champions unleash upon Taskmaster Mari when she tries to exploit their [[KryptoniteFactor Kryptonite Factors]].

* WorfHadTheFlu: Captain Makinami is unable to unleash her full power upon Taskmaster Mari because the building they're fighting in is already on the verge of collapse; any [[SupernaturalMartialArts magic or chi attacks]] because it would collapse the building they're fighting in.

* ElsewhereFic: This story happens in parallel to ''Rise of the Extraordinary Avengers''.

* BrickJoke: The reason why it's said that the witness statements of the Extraordinary Avengers team saying that Mari was with them at the time of the murders (that Mari, with all of her SupernaturalMartialArts knowledge, probably knows how and could have easily created [[Anime/{{Naruto}} a]] [[MesACrowd Shadow Clone]] to stand in for her while she went to Indianapolis through unknown means (possibly teleportation)) is what Cap Mari actually does on the last two chapters... [[NiceJobBreakingItHero and the idea was given to her by Uncle Steve himself when he briefed her of the whole mess]].
** Also one which is spectacularly laced with {{Irony}}: the reason why Cap Mari is acting up against the Champions on ''Rise'' is because the three chosen members of The Champions which are to provide security during the Fourth Of July event are pretty powerful but have (in her opinion) highly exploitable [[KryptoniteFactor Kryptonite Factors]]. The Champions which assist Cap on the final fight of this story also have a highly exploitable KryptoniteFactor... and then it turns out that, because of other factors that neither Mari knew, those Champions are totally immune to them.

''A Tale Of Two Maris'' ([[http://marcoasalazarm.deviantart.com/art/CORELINE-A-Tale-Of-Two-Maris-Ch-1-557077620 link to first chapter on Deviant Art]]), is part of the ''Fanfic/CoreLine'' SharedUniverse, happening in parallel to ''Legends Of The Fourth Of July''.

* SerialKillingsSpecificTarget: An odd example where the "specific target" is not one of the people being killed: the Taskmaster Mari is targeting villains that resemble the Joker R gang (and some innocents as "collateral damage") in order to make people assume that Captain Makinami is hunting down said gang in a "[[RogueAgent rogue]]" pre-emptive strike.
