History Fanfic / Swordsmen

* OutDamnedSpot: [[spoiler:Kenshin, while in the shower not long after taking Marshall's head]].
* OverprotectiveDad: Following the incident with Marshall, Soujiro has become this for Carrie, much to her irritation.

* AlcoholInducedIdiocy: [[spoiler:An horrendously drunk Marshall cannot rein his lust in and forcefully plants a kiss on Kenshin, a very good swordsman who's quite HappilyMarried.]]

* AllGaysArePedophiles: Basil clearly has this view regrding his cousin Byron, as he accuses Byron (who had his first sexual experience with another boy at age 15) of having unwholesome intentions toward a young stable-boy because Byron was reportedly watching the boy for several minutes longer than he should have. Byron himself is horrified at the very idea, though, since the stable-boy in question was clearly underage.

* KnifeNut: Kenshin carries a fairly impressive collection of knives for self-defense, but as noted by Duncan, they're not of much use in an actual life-or-death fight.

* BringMyBrownPants: In ''Swordsmen'', the gun-toting junkie Shark is reduced to pissing himself when Kenshin, who he'd only recently shot and left for dead, shows up in front of him with [[MoodRingEyes angry amber eyes]] for Shark's abuse of [[PapaWolf Kenshin's adopted niece Heather]]. In ''College'', [[JerkAss Michael]] likewise pisses himself when Chiyoko threatens him at sword-point [[spoiler:after he and his friends run Kenshin and company off the road]].

* TheMafia: The people who want Morgan dead, evidently. As it turns out, she was babysitting the grandson of a Mafia don, and she'd witnessed the man's son being murdered by a rival Mafia leader, which is why they want to kill her before she can testify at the impending trial. [[spoiler:[[YourCheatingHeart She was also sleeping with both the murdered son and the rival]]]].

* YourCheatingHeart: The reason Chiyoko wants to kill Marshall is because, during one of their on-again periods, he cheated on her with a 17-year-old girl. [[spoiler:The girl herself was cheating on Marshall, which he found out pretty quickly when she got pregnant, since Immortals can't have children, and he killed her for it]].

* {{Adorkable}}: Sandy Thomas, Kenshin's dorm roommate in ''College''. He's there for the school's medical program, and he stumbles all over himself when meeting Carrie in that story's first chapter.
