Added DiffLines:
‘’Sephro’’, by Kate Quinn, was published in 2011 on Amazon. It’s a story about how the PowerOfLove conquers everything, set to the backdrop of SpaceOpera. The story takes place from a variety of perspectives, most notably from Sephron gaean (or girl) Craela, and her love Cryss, who meet in the astral plane. A notable case of FourLinesAllWaiting, and a fantasy version of GratuitousForeignLanguage.
----
!! Sephro contains examples of:
*ActionGirl: Craela
*AerithandBob: Averted. While there is names like Craela, Cryss, Jondu, and Lorianna, there is no Bob in this scenario. It could be said that Cristonian could be the Bob, as his name was originally Christian.
*AllJustADream: The opening three pages were all just a dream
*AlphaBitch: Tesserai. Out of Nowhere.
*AstralProjection: How Cryss and Craela meet is through the Astral Plane, across planets. There are no ghosts here.
*AsYouKnow: Most notable is the story of Clorkhana, where Craela has heard the story multiple times, but Arlaw still explains it anyway.
*BigNO: Jondu shouts one during the climax.
*
*ChekhovsGun: It says in the opening descriptions that Craela has had a dark event in her past, and being afflicted by a Tamaearni Snake will remind her of said attack.
*CompleteMonster: Jondu is said to be this, [[spoiler:before it’s heavily implied he raped the protagonist]].
*DefiledForever: Jondu rapes Craela, and thus, she is still trying to heal as the book opens. And as the book ends.
*DoubleStandard: Lorianna firmly believes that the human race should not kill animals, and that anyone who harms animals is a plague on society. This is usually brought up whenever she’s defending her sacrificing of animals.
*DramaticEllipsis: You’ll be hard-pressed to find a single page that doesn’t contain multiple ellipsis, though never [[UpToEleven just three dots, usually with four, five, or six]].
*FlirtyStepsiblings: Cryss and Lorianna dated at one point.
*FourLinesAllWaiting: The Destroy The World Plot is set aside for personal values, which is set aside for character relationships, which is set aside for exposition and explanation, which is set aside for the Destroy The World Plot. The only thing that goes anywhere is the destroy the world plot, and only then in the last forty or so pages.
*GayBestFriend: Lugh
*GratuitousForeignLanguage: The Fantasy Version. The author actually advises people to look in the back of the book, for definitions of words such as ‘Lor’, ‘Nored’, ‘Zoombah’, ‘Drere Birds’, and [[BreadEggsMilkSquick ‘Questioning’]].
*HaveIMentionedIamGay?: Lorianna. In an ExpositionBomb.
*IdiotBall: Most notable is Crystonian, a loving father to his son Cryss and stepdaughter Lorianna. And as a loving father, after Lorianna turns evil, and runs away into the forest, he shrugs, and, instead of helping her, completely abandons her, saying she’ll have to go to some mental hospital.
*InescapablePrisonEasilyEscaped: Jondu escapes a super-max planet using off-screen teleportation in the eleventh hour
*JustAStupidAccent: Most notable is Epona, whose accent is bordering on racist.
*LeftFieldDescription: Multiple characters are described through random details to show they’re not human, as well as multiple things that play no actual part in the story are described.
*LittleNo: Jondu gives one in chapter 1.
*MagicByAnyOtherName: There are multiple types of magic, namely hormones (Ot for boys, and Ire for girls), and the magical power of Zoombah.
*MeaningfulName: Averted. None, absolutely none, of these names have any significance to the plot.
*OohMeAccentsSlipping: During Chapters 4 and 5, Cryss and family do not have Irish accents. In Chapter 6 and onward, they do.
*NewPowersAsThePlotDemands: Two-Thirds of the way into the book, Craela gains the magical power to shoot lightning from her hands. Out of nowhere. Off Camera. And it said she had the power the whole time.
*PunctuatedForEmphasis: Craela shouts 'BACK TO SARTOZHIA! in the climax, along with a lot of other things. DramaticEllipsis also used.
*StartOfDarkness: Lorianna explains in an overly long exposition that she only turned evil because one of her classmates poured paint on her writing, and she couldn’t use magic to stop her.
*VillainTeleportation: Inverted and played straight. The entire race of Sephrons has the power to teleport themselves and other people [[FasterThanLightTravel across space]], yet [[ForgotAboutHisPowers no one uses it]].
*WhoWantsToLiveForever: If you kill someone, you are made immortal. This is seen as a bad thing.
