Ill Girl has been cut per TRS decision. Examples are moved to Delicate And Sickly when appropriate.


* IllGirl: [[spoiler:Poor Sicily was born with a condition that's led to her spending her entire childhood quarantined inside a hospital uptown, forcibly separated from the rest of her family.]]

This or these examples of Surprisingly Realistic Outcome seem to violate at least one of these rules, which disqualifies them: No character reactions (characters get angry, don't forgive, don't change their personality instantly, etc.); Too fantastical (depends on the properties of magic, powers, sci-fi tech, monsters, etc.); Not surprising (a character was warned about the outcome, it's used to provide Karma or An Aesop, or it simply follows normal conventions for this genre or medium); Plot happens (the example only describes an event, but not why audiences would expect a different, unrealistic outcome); Not an outcome (a character just explains why something wouldn't work as expected, or something is just an innate aspect of the setting or character that has a logical reason for being present); More of a Deconstruction (the event has major, lasting effects on the plot, make something more realistic, but not completely realistic, or a parody/fanwork applies realistic consequences to the events of a different work); or fits better under a different trope. See the trope's definition for more details. If you believe a removal was a mistake, please bring it up in the cleanup thread.


* SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome:
** As much as Valvatorez would like to believe that he can manage his condition without having to take any transfusions, Artina warns him that he won't necessarily have any ''choice'' in the matter. [[spoiler:After getting shot, he ''needs'' a transfusion in order to survive, and isn't allowed to stop the process once he becomes aware of it.]]
** Laharl's desire to look after Sicily is severely hampered by how [[spoiler:he doesn't have the medical expertise necessary to manage her condition]]. Etna repeatedly reminds him during the DLC chapters that [[spoiler:even if they establish a stable home for themselves, that doesn't mean she'll be allowed to stay with them full-time]].

* AdultFear: A recurrent theme is children being forced to live on the streets and/or fend for themselves. Valvatorez lived through this for so long that he can't recall anything beyond being the 'Street Tyrant'. Fenrich was similarly forced to grow up quickly, and several of Valvatorez's 'prinnies' went through their own ordeals before coming into his care.
