History Fanfic / TheDreamMustGoOn

* {{Adorkable}}: [[spoiler: Dottie]] the mind worker from Dream Productions certainly counts as one.

*** Bella's house from Disney/BeautyAndTheBeast makes an appearance in Joy's room.
*** Sadness's bedroom was based off Queen Elsa's room from [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Disney/Frozen Frozen]].
*** Sadness's personal collection of dolls include [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/WesternAnimation/Minions Gru's Minions]], Judy Hopps and Nick Wilde from [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Disney/Zootopia Zootopia]], Olaf the Snowman from [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Disney/Frozen Frozen]], and even Mike Wazowski from WesternAnimation/MonstersInc.

--> '''Anger:''' "Yeah, sure...that kick totally ''says'' I love you, let's be friends..."

->'''[[spoiler: Dottie]]''': "I think you help Riley out the most."
->'''Sadness''': "R-Really?"
->'''[[spoiler: Dottie]]''': "The other emotions have Riley react to things. You call to other people to help her. The others talk but you listen."

But when Sadness is suddenly given a rare opportunity in the form of [[spoiler: an acting job at Dream Productions]], the other emotions all encourage her to take it. However, with the new job comes new challenges and obstacles in which friendships would be tested. For both Sadness and Riley. And there it becomes realized that the past isn't always easy to let go. Or easily forgiven.

** In Chapter Five, we learn quite a number of things from the [[spoiler: Dottie's visit]] to each emotion's room.

* TheReveal: The visits to each emotion's room gave us something new about each of them.
** Disgust has another separate room devoted to her fashion sense.

* RealityIsOutToLunch: Joy's room defies all sense and reason unlike the other emotions [[spoiler: as she has a bathtub for a bed]], and she also has a happy place which looked almost like a replica of ''Beauty and the Beast's Belle House'' beyond her room's window.

* ShoutOut: Quite a few examples.
** Chapter Five:

** And we also got a slightly more animated reaction from Disgust again in Chapter Five when the aforementioned topic was brought up again, this time by [[spoiler: Dottie.]]

* ActOfTrueLove: [[spoiler: Bing Bong's sacrifice in the movie was brought up repeatedly in this fanfiction, and explicitly mentioned in Chapter Five by the emotions to Dottie, which needed Sadness and Joy to comfort the emotion worker.]]

** [[spoiler: Disgust and Anger, on the other hand, are also kind of jealous of Fear's position as Dottie's second favourite emotion.]]

** In Chapter Five, she squealed upon visiting [[spoiler: Sadness's bedroom and enjoying the latter's collection of cartoon dolls, as well as when she was given the chance to stay with Sadness out of all the emotions.]]

*** Characters from Pixar's theatrical short ''Lava'' were also among the dolls, in the form of a woman merged with a mountain, and she sang lyrics from the short film.

* YouAreBetterThanYouThinkYouAre: [[spoiler: Dottie mentioned this to Sadness, knowing that she's important to Riley's well-being.]]

* YouAreWhatYouHate: In Chapter Four, we '''finally''' see Disgust's reaction to the fact that she does ''indeed look like broccoli.''

* YouAreWhatYouHate: In Chapter Four, we '''finally''' see Disgust's reaction to the fact that she does ''indeed look like broccoli.''
* YouAreNotAlone: What Flora, Dream Production's director tries to do in the new dreams. [[spoiler: She casted Dottie as Young Riley and Sadness as Mrs. Andersen to remind Riley via dreams that her family will always be there for her.]]

** The TripleDent Gum commercial returns once more in Chapter Five, unnerving Anger like what happened in the Inside Out movie.

*** Sadness's personal collection of dolls include WesternAnimation/Minions, Judy Hopps and Nick Wilde from Disney/Zootopia, Olaf from Disney/Frozen, and even Mike Wazowski from WesternAnimation/MonstersInc.

* BewareTheNiceOnes: [[spoiler: Dottie]] is an adorable and cheerful little girl, who adores [[spoiler:Sadness for being TheEmpath]] but she utterly dislikes Anger, who she considers a bully and is able to pierce [[spoiler:Joy]] w[[BreakThemByTalking with words]].

This fanfiction focuses on how the five emotions (Joy, Sadness, Anger, Disgust and Fear) of Riley Andersen's mind deals with the fallout after the events of animated film, after realising that Sadness was important to Riley's mind. However, even as they pick up the pieces, the emotions know that it would be a '''long''' healing process before Riley would even return to her usual optimistic self. But since they were all back together again, the emotions know they would be able to pull through by supporting each other.

* ContinuityNod: The window from where Joy and Sadnes returned to Headquarters still has a hole in it.

* MyGreatestFailure: [[spoiler:Joy is constantly reminded (and will always agree) that her fixation on keeping Riley a happy girl made her more harm than good, that the whole Core memories trouble was caused by her being unable to accept sadness in the girl's life and her past mistreat on Sadness.]]

* YouAreNotAlone: What Flora, Dream Production's director tries to do in the new dreams. [[spoiler:She casted Dottie as Young Riley and Sadness as Mrs. Andersen to remind Riley via dreams that her family will always be there for her.]]

->'''[[spoiler: Dottie]]''': "The other emotions have Riley react to things. You call to other people to help her." She reached over and held Sadness' hand. "The others talk but you listen."

* ADayInTheLimelight: The majority of the fanfiction focuses on the emotion Sadness.
* Adorkable: [[spoiler: Dottie]] the mind worker from Dream Productions certainly counts as one.
