->'''Maleficent:''' "Why, it was ''me'', of course."

-> '''Russell:''' "So basically no one here is straight."
-> '''Fish:''' "Cheers to Maleficent for putting together the gayest team to ever try to rule the universe."

->'''Russell (to Doctor Doom):''' "That's what you get for bein' the only technologically literate member of our Inner Circle. You left witches, pirates, and vampires alone with a computer and without clear instructions."

->'''Sarah:''' "A contest of beauty that incited a horrific and bloody war? T'is the stuff of dreams!"

->'''Ardyn:''' "Is he always this dramatic?"
->'''Amora:''' "Everyone in this faction is. It's part of our charm."

->'''Demyx:''' [[WhamLine "Now then, ''let's dance''."]]

->'''Fish:''' "Unbelievable. Your relationship drama just started a war."

->'''Demyx:''' "You never ''did'' realize what you had. You were always so caught up in your bigger picture that you never took the time to understand your underlings. For instance, the fact that Marluxia and Larxene were able to stage a coup under your nose, or how Xigbar was planning to sell everyone upstream to finally get a Keyblade, or maybe how your own 'loyal' lieutenant was collaborating with Axel behind your back until Axel went soft on him. No, you never noticed any of that. But ''I'' did. Because that's what ''you'' never noticed about ''me''. You had flowers trying to grow the tallest, fires trying to burn the brightest, and thunder trying to clap the loudest. But you never considered that at the end of the day, ''water'' was taking whatever form was necessary to keep flowing and enduring.

->"When the ten realms align, as is their mission, everything you wish will come to fruition. The ten shall come together and hear thy curse, evermore you shall rule the universe!"

* ReplacementGoldfish: [[spoiler: After the death of the Once Upon A Time version of Cruella in ''All The Forces of Evil'', Grimhilde's grief drives her to recruit [[Film/OneHundredAndOneDalmatians the 1996 live action version of her]] out of the belief that the other Cruella is the reincarnation of the one she lost]].

** Season 6 of ''True Blood'' falls apart because the Tru Blood factory is destroyed, not preventing a plague that would decimate vampires but also forcing vampires to feed on humans to sustain themselves.
** Season 4 of ''Once Upon a Time'' goes off the rails with [[spoiler:Rumplestiltskin being striped of his powers and Storybrooke being largely destroyed by the Queens of Darkness]]

* TakeThat: The Loki-centric chapter of ''The Odious Overtakers'', starts with Loki happily taking the souls of a group of fans calling themselves the Coven of Loki, who believe him to be a misunderstood, tragic character a victim of abuse from Odin & Thor. The mischievous God proudly declares that he is neither a victim nor a trauma survivor, but someone who chose to become evil and seek power for his own greed.

* VillainousRescue: Early in ''Quite a Glittering Assemblage'', Doom and Russell were about to use cannons to kill Sora, Donald and Goofy while they were running through the streets of Olympus unawares when Ultron and Baron Mordo appear to take revenge on Doom.

* OffTheRails: Because of the Overtakers' efforts, various Worlds/shows go in a completely different direction from canon.

* HenchmenRace: [[WesternAnimation/TheBlackCauldron The Cauldron-Born]].

* NonHumanHumanoidHybrid: Maleficent is the hybrid offspring of a dragon and [[TheFairFolk an Unseelie Fae]].

** During one of the Interludes in ''Every Villain Assembled Narrates'', Fish mentions an incident where the Inner Circle went out to eat at [[WesternAnimation/TheEmperorsNewGroove Mudka's Meat Hut]]. Fish and Hades indicate that it wasn't a pleasant experience for most of the group, and Russell implies that he ate Kronk, but no other details are spoken of.

* NoodleIncident: At some point in ''All the Forces of Evil'', Hook, Jafar, and Frollo ended up tripping on seaweed that Grimhilde had acquired from [[Franchise/CthulhuMythos the Lost City of R'lyeh]]. Hook considered it an unpleasant experience, and Frollo was apparently out of commission for a week after a single puff.

* ParentalSubstitute: Fish Mooney sets herself up as a mother figure to various young villains she mentors including Demyx, Oswald Cobblepot, and [[Series/ScreamTVSeries Kieran Wilcox]].

* CriminalFoundFamily: The Overtakers as a whole, despite the bickering between the diffent factions within the larger organization, see each other as family.

* ''[[https://archiveofourown.org/works/42023760/chapters/105508425 Reverse the Moon and Sun]]'', an ongoing story in which [[WesternAnimation/CinderellaIIIATwistInTime Lady Tremaine]], [[ComicBook/CaptainMarvelKellyThompson Ove]], and [[VideoGame/MarvelUltimateAlliance Baron Mordo]] use the Book of Cagliostro to form a TimeTravel-focused offshoot of the Overtakers at Maleficent's direction.

* DoubleDate: Doom and Loki go on one with Hook and Jafar to the [[Film/RevengeOfTheSith Galaxy Opera House]] in Chapter 51 of ''All the Forces of Evil''
