Added DiffLines:

* AbledInTheAdaptation: Due to being turned into a human, William (an eyeball with wings) now is able to speak and pick things up. Unfortunately, this also means that he needs to get used to using things he's never used before... like a voice and legs. When we first meet him in the story, he's using crutches and his voice is harsh from lack of use.
* AdaptationalWimp: Hector as a human is now no longer the same height as a Kaiju, being a "mere" nine feet tall.
* BerserkButton: While in the past, everyone takes Larry for granted and pays him next to nothing (necessitating him taking every job he can), this treatment of him manages to mash on Danny Hebert's button... or rather, ''head of the Dockworker's Union hiring'' Danny Hebert's button.


Added DiffLines:

* DidntThinkThisThrough: Gumball and the Internet select a world to bring Elmore to at random, but the deciding factor is learning that there are superheroes in the new world. Gumball leaps at the opportunity to see real superheroes, and ignores the Internet when it tries to tell him that there's a couple details about the new world that make it less ideal... which he probably should have listened to, given that the world they land in is Worm.


Added DiffLines:

* GoneHorriblyRight: Elmore's waking up of Brockton was meant to give Elmore a companion and someone who would do subtle manipulation pranks for their own enjoyment. Unfortunately, waking up Brockton Bay made it enraged and attempted to murder Lung and Kaiser before it gets talked down.


Added DiffLines:

* LaboriousLaziness: This is how Richard explains why he's so good at playing Engineer in Team Fortress 2- it's really easy to be lazy and not do anything, but that just makes his wife mad. So what he does is be lazy for a while, then get up and do just enough to keep her happy, and then go back to being lazy. This is reflected by his gameplay, where he fully embraces "Turtling" (sitting in one place and letting his sentry gun do the work), but occasionally changing things before he can get punished for it.


Added DiffLines:

** Ocho, previously a video game spider, and the proprieter of Elmore Exterminators, formerly a roach, are able to be affected by Taylor's powers and find themselves drawn to her locker during her Trigger Event. Ocho is even the one who insists hardest on getting her out.
* NotMeThisTime:
** A double example in the second chapter, when Nicole hears a car crash outside and first blames Richard, and then Gumball and Darwin. Both prove to have a reasonable alibi; the real culprit was Skidmark and Squealer running from Donut Cop.
** When Nicole interrupts a Uber and Leet's Team Fortress live match, they do admit that while they ''are'' sometimes criminals, this time they're genuinely not doing anything wrong. Richard even speaks in their defense, pointing out that there's no crime and everyone involved signed waivers.


Added DiffLines:

* RefusalOfTheCall: When asked if he wants to join the Protectorate with his wife and kids, Richard turns them down- he's much happier being a house husband.

* HaHaHaNo: In Chapter 7, when Danny asks if Larry is being paid the salaries of at least three men due to working at least three men's jobs, the latter bursts into slightly hysterical laughter before saying "No. Of course not".
