* CrowningMomentofHeartwarming: Tell me you didn't go d'aaaaaaaaaaaaaw when Alex apologizes to his captor for unknowningly mocking him about his fear of Death.

** In [[http://www.captainsnes.com/2011/12/19/749-tragic-loss/ #749]], [[spoiler:Kefka immediately gets taken out by Locke in a single round due to a combination of VillainForgotToLevelGrind (second time around is a bit forgivable, seeing as how he was dead) and Alex abusing Relm's [[GoodBadBug sketch bug]] to obtain duplicates of rare (possibily one-only) equipment.]]

** Setzer wondered what could go happen with Relm sketching an Intagnir. [[http://www.captainsnes.com/2011/11/23/743-sketchy-past/ The breaking of reality, that's what.]]

* RealityWarper: Alex's Cynicism can alter reality to make events more ironic, the Sovereign can do this on a massive scale, and anyone who says [[spoiler: 'I am Invincible']] gets smacked for their hubris, even if they are correcting someone or just reciting a story where that happens. That last one is believed to be directed by some sort of consciousness.

* RunningGag: Getting slammed in the face by a treasure [=chest/Gato=] for saying [[TemptingFate "I am invincible"]].

** Max Force takes this trope, machineguns it to death, and publically sets its corpse on fire...[[spoiler:[[MoralEventHorizon just as he did a group of toadstools he'd just recently help liberate]]]].

* GroundhogDayLoop: Poor Alex nearly got stuck in an endless loop between a save point and his first random encounter.

** In [[http://www.captainsnes.com/2011/12/19/749-tragic-loss/ #749]], [[spoiler:Kefka immediately gets taken out by Locke in a single round due to a combination of VillainForgotToLevelGrind and Alex abusing Relm's [[GoodBadBug sketch bug]] to obtain duplicates or rare (possibily one-only) equipment.]]

* GoodBadBugs: [[http://www.captainsnes.com/2011/11/23/743-sketchy-past/ Did you ever wonder what it would be like to live through one?]]

** AwesomeYetPractical: Inside an RPG battle realm, those problems disappear: Only combatants on both sides are in the created battle zone, so you only have to worry about guys who have inherent invulnerability or guys that can temporarily exit the battlefield. Two RPG end bosses that previously were unbeatable due to hostages they held were defeated when Alex simply declared combat had begun, and was free to use the gun.

* CassandraTruth: {{Subverted}} with Terra. She claims the CreepyChild just summoned flowers with magic, but ''everyone knows'' there's no such thing as magic... [[TheMagicGoesAway anymore]]. So she asks the kid to do it again, and she does.

* PsychicStatic: Subverted, and combined with CassandraTruth. Daos, Sinistral of Terror, tries to read Alex's mind to find out what his worst fear is. When all Daos can find is "[[{{Berzerk}} a giant pink smiley face that blinked in and out of existence]]", Daos concludes that it's some kind of mental shield, refusing to believe that Alex's worst fear would be something that ridiculous.

* IHaveManyNames: Drab Lord, Edward, Gilbert, [[DetractorName Spoony]]

*** It's even worse now for the Captain. [[spoiler: Mega Man and Bass just heard him refuse to save Roll (He has good pyschological reasons why! The remains of the gate reminded him of Evil Otto...an [[{{Determinator}} unstoppable]], [[UncannyValley smily-faced]] [[HighOctaneNightmareFuel killing machine]], for the uninitiated...being out there). This will end with Pain...and Alex being Jailed.]]

* SwitchingToGeico: Or Spriteco. Doubles as a ShoutOut.
