11Written by [[http://www.fanfiction.net/u/3575875/ phoenixyfriend]], can be found [[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/7907035/1/Akatsuki-Kitten-Phoenix-Corporation-Overhaul here]].
12
13Created after the author got fed up with the lack of decent kitten-fics, Akatsuki Kitten: Phoenix Corporation Overhaul tries to take a classic fanfiction cliche and do exactly as the title says: overhaul it.
14
15One of the fic's most notable aspects is the presence of what is referred to as the [[OddlySmallOrganisation Phoenix Corporation]], [[OriginalCharacter OCs]] that work directly for the [[AuthorAvatar author]], who refers to herself in-story as [[ThirdPersonPerson Phoenix]]. They apparently run the universe of the story from inside her head.
16
17The author is also remarkably fond of TV Tropes, and frequently references tropes as she writes.
18
19'''Note:''' Many tropes are discussed by name within the fic. If the trope is mentioned as invoked, discussed, referenced, or in any similar capacity, it does NOT belong in the YMMV tab.

21----
22!!''Akatsuki Kitten: Phoenix Corporation Overhaul'' provides examples of:
23
24* AddedAlliterativeAppeal:
25** Stupid Socratic Seminar tickets.
26** Bubbly blonde bimbo.
27* AffectionateParody: Phoenix adores kitten fics, and wrote the story because she was disappointed by the dearth of good ones.
28* AgentPeacock: Emerald has elements of this.
29* AlliterativeName: Sort of. Jade's full name is Jade Juarez, which doesn't start with the same sound, but does start with the same letter.
30%%* {{Animorphism}}: Chimera.
31%%* {{Anvilicious}}: Invoked in concerns to something that isn't even technically an anvil.
32%%* AppliedPhlebotinum: Most of the cures.
33%%* AttentionDeficitOohShiny: Diamond.
34* AuthorAvatar: Phoenix ''is'' the author. It's a little hard to wrap your head around without actually reading the fic.
35%%* {{Backstory}}: Jashin.
36* BadassBookworm: Jade is smart enough to be in the IB program and do well, and is an ace shot besides.
37* BadassNormal: Jade is the only normal person in the story so far with a name. She also shoots a burglar that comes into her house late one night.
38* BadassInANiceSuit: Chimera wears one, along with [[BadassLongcoat a trenchcoat]], [[CoolShades sunglasses]], and a fedora.
39* BadBoss: Zigzagged. It's hard to tell with Phoenix; she seems pretty nice to her subordinates, and she feels regret for whatever [[NoodleIncident The Collapse]] was... but until we find out what exactly The Collapse ''was'', there's no real way of knowing.
40* BerserkButton: Played for RuleOfFunny so far:
41** Diamond really doesn't like being called short.
42** Nightingale doesn't like it when people do things that make Phoenix doubt the dead-or-alive status of a person.
43** Moonstone hates people who play with space-time in already unstable dimensions.
44%%* BigLippedAlligatorMoment: [[invoked]] In chapter five; they even call it that by name.
45* BileFascination: [[invoked]] Nagato reads World War II books, and finds them horrifying.
46%%* BilingualBackfire: Mentioned.
47* BilingualBonus: Sapphire, the name given to Deidara as a kitten, sounds remarkably like safaia, a Japanese word for the same thing.
48%%* BloodLust: Diamond.
49* BloodMagic: Diamond. She's also known as the [[RedBaron Blood Mage]].
50* BloodyMurder: Diamond can make whips out of her own blood.
51%%* BlowYouAway: [[TheStoic Agent Quartz]].
52* BlueAndOrangeMorality: The Phoenix Corporation functions one the principle that whatever brings entertainment, shock, and interest is good, while that which causes boredom is bad. Considering that they work for the author, this is justified.
53%%* ButtMonkey: Most commonly Phoenix.
54* CampGay: Discussed and Averted in the case of Agent Emerald.
55* CaptainObvious: Usually for purposes of humor.
56--> About Sasori falling in love: No, not with Jade. That would be pedophilia, and pedophilia is bad.
57--> He actually 'fell in love' with some books on engineering.
58* CastingAShadow: [[{{Necromancer}} Agent Nightingale]] along with LightEmUp.
59%%* ChirpingCrickets: Complete with tumbleweed in chapter fourteen.
60* ClassifiedInformation: Jashin in chapter thirteen, but used multiple times when members of the PC just don't feel like explaining.
61* {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: Though we haven't seen sign of this side of her yet, Diamond is implied to be one.
62%%* CloudcuckoolandersMinder: Chimera refers to himself as such.
63* ClusterFBomb: Hidan in chapter two, though rarely after that.
64* ContractualGenreBlindness: Played with. The Phoenix Corporation often bans the [[StatingTheSimpleSolution the simple solution]], preferring the more complicated one because it's more entertaining.
65* ConvenientlyAnOrphan:
66** Invoked. Jade's parents died in a car crash a decade before the storyline. She's not too cut up about it.
67** None of the PC have any living relatives left, other then the other PC members that they're relate too. Emerald and Moonstone are fraternal twins, while Chimera, Opal, and Goldstone are all cousins.
68* {{Cosplay}}: Deidara dresses like Akita Neru from ''Music/{{Vocaloid}}'' in chapter twelve.
69* CostumePorn: Chapter thirteen, and lampshaded.
70--> The clothing she was wearing was almost all black leather, to near Fetish-Fuel levels. She was wearing a tight shirt, one that had a high collar and relatively long sleeves, yet bared her midriff. Of her arms, you could only see her elbows and fingers, for her gloves covered everything between them. She wore a short skirt, with a loose metal chain acting as a ‘belt.’ Her high-heeled boots came up to just below her knees. Her hair was held away from her face with a black headband, leaving only a single bronze-red curl to fall forward.
71-->All you could see of her skin was her fingers, elbows, knees, midriff, and from halfway up her neck skywards. So much less than normal, and yet she would have made any man’s heart beat in desire upon the sight of her. Unfortunately, with the mischievously delighted grin she was wearing, they were more likely to beat in fear instead.
72* CrackFic: It would be borderline as just a kittenfic, but the inclusion of the PC sends it into full crack territory.
73* {{Crossover}}: If barely. Diamond and Chimera are stated to be the only members of the PC that aren't fully [[OriginalCharacter OCs]], but rather [[OCStandin OC Stand-ins]] from two other fandoms. Unfortunately for the readers, Phoenix has turned it into a mystery to see if anyone can guess where the two are from and who they were.
74* CrazyEnoughToWork: Referenced and said word for word, though with an added 'just' at the beginning.
75* CrystalDragonJesus: Featured in the IdiosyncraticWipe in chapter seven.
76* CuteBruiser: Agent Diamond is less than five feet tall, but is the strongest [[LightningBruiser and fastest]]) Phoenix Corporation member in terms of brute strength.
77* DarkerAndEdgier: Diamond, compared to her canon counterpart, [[BreakTheCutie and for good reason]].
78* DeadpanSnarker:
79** Nagato, as a way to keep his sanity while surrounded by idiots.
80** Goldstone, especially to Phoenix.
81%%* DeusExMachina: Discussed.
82%%* {{Dhampyr}}: Brought up and then shortly discussed.
83%%* DishingOutDirt: Agent Silk.
84* DisproportionateRetribution: Nightingale trying to kill Tobi.
85** Mentioned in reference to [[spoiler: Obito becoming evil because of Rin's death.]]
86* DontTouchItYouIdiot: Jade's guns, though thankfully, no one has ignored her warnings yet.
87* DragonInChief: She is sometimes the one to tell Phoenix to get back to work.
88* DramaticWind: Jade, while indoors, experiences this without realizing it. It's accompanied by [[GlowingEyesOfDoom glowing eyes]], [[DramaticThunder flashing lightning and loud thunder]], and [[HiddenEyes shadowed eyes]].
89* DryDockedShip: Yahiko and Konan used to be together, but broke up several months before the former's death. This was invoked by Phoenix so she could have the Nagato/Konan pairing without feeling guilty about Yahiko.
90%%* JustForFun/{{Egregious}}: Invoked, discussed, and begged for mercy.
91* EmpathicEnvironment: Once in a while. It usually happens for either RuleOfFunny or in concerns to events in Phoenix's life, if at all. The notable examples:
92** When Jade's room suddenly aids her in scaring the Akatsuki, though they're more scared of the Phoenix Corporation's involvement than Jade.
93** There's a thunderstorm when Phoenix gets a cold, suggesting that the state of her head really does influence the state of story.
94** It snows and a tree branch breaks after an incident in which Phoenix apparently choked on a chicken bone in real life.
95* FaceFault: Diamond is disappointed in the chapter twelve {{omake}} because nobody facefaults.
96* {{Fainting}}: Jade faints after presented with the information that the cats are the Akatsuki, and Opal comes out of the TV.
97* FauxlosophicNarration: Mentioned in chapter twelve, though not by name.
98* ForcedTransformation: Chimera can turn other people into a variety of animals, and is the one to turn all of the Akatsuki into kittens.
99* FountainOfYouth: Done to Nagato and Konan, though no word on any of the others. Sasori may count, as he was returned to his fifteen-year-old human body.
100%%* FourthWallMailSlot: Literally. It's even labelled with those exact words.
101%%* FourthWallObserver: The PC.
102%%* FrickinLaserBeams: Agent Nightingale is implied to have them.
103%%* FriendsWithBenefits: Mentioned.
104* GaryStu / MarySue: [[invoked]] Chimera states that he sometimes feels like one.
105* GenderFlip: For the [[OriginalCharacter OCs]] only. Two of them were originally meant to be female, but were switched when the author decided that the gender imbalance was too big.
106* GigglingVillain: If you consider Diamond a villain.
107* GlowingEyesOfDoom: Jade, briefly, due to the PC.
108* {{Gorn}}:
109** The Chapter Twelve {{Omake}} has exploding [[Literature/HarryPotter Death Eaters]].
110** Diamond ''explodes'' in the middle of Jade's living room, and literally everything is covered in blood.
111* GratuitousJapanese: Justified since the Akatsuki don't know English when they first arrive, and have to learn it from scratch.
112%%* GreenThumb: Agent Emerald.
113* GuileHero: Jade considers herself to be rather logical.
114** She takes in the Akatsuki kittens because she's getting paid, and they looked exotic enough to sell off to some breeders for a good price.
115** She keeps them as kittens whenever possible to avoid having to spend too much money and space on them.
116%%* GunNut: Jade.
117* InsultBackfire: Hidan calls Chimera a Jashin-d***ed heathen. Chimera replies that he's friends with Jashin, so he doesn't really care.
118%%* {{Hammerspace}}
119* HeadPet: Diamond occasionally sits on the shoulders of larger than average people.
120* HiddenDepths: Hidan knows a lot about mythology and various religions, even if he doesn't follow them. No one really expected it.
121** Kakuzu knows some things about cats, because purebred ones can be sold for a lot of money.
122** Deidara knows how to do Calculus.
123%%* HiddenEyes: Jade, for rule of funny.
124%%* HiveMind: Jashin is implied to sort-of be one.
125* HumanityEnsues: After twenty years without teen hormones, Sasori suddenly has them again, and acts like a bit of a b*** as a result.
126%%* AnIcePerson: Sapphire dabbles in this from time to time.
127%%* IdiosyncraticWipe: Yes, there actually is one, sort of, in chapter seven.
128%%* InteractiveNarrator: Phoenix.
129* JediMindTrick: Used by Jade on one of her teachers in chapter ten, assuming that it'll work based on what she knows of the author. It does.
130** Jade asks Itachi if he's going to be using this on her teachers in Chapter Twelve.
131* JumpingOffTheSlipperySlope: Mentioned in concerns to [[spoiler: Obito.]]
132%%* KillerRabbit: Diamond, you psychotic short-stack.
133* LampshadeHanging: EVERYWHERE. As of chapter thirteen, even the lampshades are either invoked or lampshaded themselves.
134%%* LemonyNarrator: Phoenix has her moments.
135%%* LightEmUp: Agent Nightingale.
136* MagicalQueer: Agent Emerald is quite open about both his powers, which are plant-based, and about his homosexuality. It may count as a subversion, since he's a StraightGay.
137* MagicPants: Subverted rather oddly with Deidara. When he turns back, he's stuffed into a plastic bag, but otherwise naked.
138%%** Every time ''except'' the first.
139%%* MakesJustAsMuchSenseInContext: Lampshaded in chapter fourteen.
140* MakingASplash: Agent Sapphire's powers revolve around water.
141%%** Kisame's cure.
142%%* ManicPixieDreamGirl: Diamond is referred to as such.
143* MarySue: Invoked, with Diamond and how she is physically attractive, and then endlessly lampshaded by referring to Diamond's less-than-pleasant mental issues. The author outright states that Diamond is as close to a true Sue as the fic is going to get.
144* MasterOfIllusion: Opal, but Diamond has similar abilities that function one in a completely different manner. While Opal controls the receptors in the mind itself, Diamond creates area-wide illusions that capture everything.
145* TheMedic: Goldstone's stated position in the PC. Interestingly enough, she's also the highest ranking member other than Phoenix herself.
146* MetaFic: A substantial portion of the fic is about ''writing'' the fic.
147%%* {{Metaphorgotten}}: A worry in the author's note at the end of chapter six.
148%%* MindManipulation: Opal's specialty.
149%%* MathematiciansAnswer: Diamond.
150* MindHive: Mentioned by Jashin, but not expanded upon. It's implied that he can become part of one with his alternate selves at will.
151* MindScrew:
152** It's implied that the fic makes Phoenix do this to herself sometimes. The nature of the Agents and the fic might do this to you as well.
153** Discussed in chapter 12, and the conversation starts twisting around itself in a near-ridiculous manner.
154%%* MoodWhiplash: At the start of chapter five.
155* MostFanficWritersAreGirls: Phoenix makes no secret of the fact that she is a girl.
156* MrExposition: Jashin and Diamond take it upon themselves to explain a lot of things in chapter 13. The Phoenix Corporation is this almost all of the time.
157* MsFanservice: Diamond, despite the amount of skin she covers up.
158* {{MST}}: The comments that Phoenix and the Agents say while writing the fic amounts to in-fic MST-ing.
159* MuggleBestFriend: Kate. She was purposely designed to be as normal as possible while still retaining some above-average traits. She is, so far, as normal as a character in the story has been.
160* MundaneMadeAwesome: The author has a certain obsession with clipboards.
161--> Clipboards are awesome. They are even more awesome than [[Manga/DeathNote potato chips]] and OminousLatinChanting. Do not question the coolness factor of a clipboard.
162%%* MurderTheHypotenuse: Mentioned.
163%%* NakedPeopleAreFunny: Invoked.
164* NavelWindow: Diamond, though it's a little odd since she also covers up almost everything else, leaving only her knees, belly, fingers, elbows, and head to be seen. The midriff is the only shown skin that could be considered scandalous.
165* {{Necromancer}}: Agent Nightingale can bring back the dead, but it's not seen as a bad thing, especially since he claims to have trouble eating after he does it.
166* NighInvulnerability: All of the PC Agents, but Diamond takes the cake. Agent Diamond has the Made of Diamond (as her name indicates), the Made of Air (she can collapse herself into a puddle of blood and build herself back up), and has Phoenix's 'divine' protection.
167* NoFourthWall: There is a wall, it's just that [[ThereWasADoor there's a door in it]]. And a window. [[OverlyLongGag And a mailslot.]] And a few holes from where people have [[BreakingTheFourthWall broken it]].
168* MediumAwareness: Almost everyone.
169%%* NotHimself: Mentioned.
170%%* NoTranshumanismAllowed: Discussed.
171%%* NumberTwo: Goldstone is one to Phoenix.
172%%* ObligatorySwearing: With an JustForFun/{{egregious}} amount of TWordEuphemism.
173* OhCrapThereAreFanficsOfUs: The reason that Jashin warns Hidan away from media, because he might be scarred by what's out there.
174%%* OminousLatinChanting: Referenced.
175* OmniscientCouncilOfVagueness: The PC has a room that's suitable to one, or at least they claim it is. They might count themselves, but they're not quite vague enough.
176* OnlyAFleshWound: Averted. Jade shoots for the torso because she knows it's her best chance of hitting at all, and the bullet ends up hitting the collarbone. The guy doesn't go down immediately, but after she [[PistolWhipping pistol whips]] him, she calls both the police ''and'' the paramedics, because she knows the guy is going to need them.
177* OnlyChildSyndrome: Averted. Jade has an older brother in college, and was taken care of by her aunt until she was sixteen.
178* OnlyInItForTheMoney: Jade's original reason for taking in the Akatsuki was because she thought their coloring would make them valuable to breeders, and was planning on selling them.
179%%* Administrivia/PeopleSitOnChairs: Referenced.
180* PerpetualSmiler: Diamond only ever stops smiling if she finds it funny to pout or something instead.
181* PistolWhipping: Jade does this to a burglar that she finds in her house late one night, though only after she's already shot him.
182%%* PlayingWithFire: Agent Ruby.
183* ThePollyanna: Most of the PC, but Diamond showcases it the best. Unless she's interrogated about The Collapse, she's genuinely cheery most of the time.
184%%* PowersThatBe:
185%%** The PC.
186%%** Jashin and the Shinigami are mentioned.
187%%* PurpleProse: There's some in chapter thirteen.
188* PsychopathicManchild: Diamond ''giggles'' after she makes some people explode in the chapter twelve {{omake}}.
189* RedBaron: Each of the Agents has one, and we've really only hear one actual name from them so far.
190** Plus Phoenix, the author.
191** [[TheDragon Agent Goldstone]]
192** [[MindManipulation Agent Opal]]
193** [[{{Animorphism}} Agent Chimera]]
194** [[{{Necromancer}} Agent Nightingale]]: His real name is Nyxus, a possible reference to his LightEmUp and CastingAShadow powers.
195** [[BloodMagic Agent Diamond]]: Also known as the Blood Mage.
196** [[TimeMaster Agent]] [[SpaceMaster Moonstone]]
197** [[GreenThumb Agent Emerald]]
198** [[PlayingWithFire Agent Ruby]]
199** [[MakingASplash Agent Sapphire]]
200** [[BlowYouAway Agent Quartz]]
201** [[DishingOutDirt Agent Silk]]
202%%* RevengeBeforeReason: Mentioned.
203* RougeAnglesOfSatin: Thankfully avoided almost completely. The author doesn't have a beta, but nonetheless appears to edit her work as carefully as possible.
204* TheScapegoat: At least four different people blame Tobi for the fiasco in Chapter Eleven.
205* ScarsAreForever: Opal is stated to have long scars running down the side of her face and clipping her collarbone. They are a result of the attack that turned her into a [[OurWerewolvesAreDifferent werewolf.]]
206%%* ScaryShinyGlasses: Quartz.
207%%* SelfDeprecation: Phoenix, frequently. It's lampshaded, especially since it's her minions that so frequently bash her.
208* SesquipedalianLoquaciousness: Phoenix is warned against falling into this trap by her minions.
209* ShapedLikeItself: Agent Chimera can turn into... a chimera.
210* ShipperOnDeck:
211** Yahiko apparently ships [[PortmanteauCoupleName NagaKona]]. The reason they didn't get together was because he was dead. He's trying to fix that.
212** The Phoenix Corporation. They made sure that Konan (as a kitten) was on the chest of Nagato (as a human) when she returned to being human, which lead to a naked Konan pretty much straddling Nagato on the ground before she shunshin-ed out.
213* ShipTease: There is some between Deidara and Jade in chapter twelve, but Phoenix quickly shoots down any idea of a real romance. This comes back in chapter sixteen, where the two have a one night stand that doesn't go past making out, but even the conversation before it is lacking in any real romantic connotations.
214%%* ShockAndAwe: Agent Opal.
215* ShoutOut: Many:
216** Phoenix has, as of chapter twelve, named off four other fanfiction authors that she is either on good terms with or respects, and discussed them or their stories in-fic.
217** A number of Harry Potter spells are used.
218** The cat names:
219*** Hidan's kitten name is Draco, because of his [[Literature/HarryPotter 'aloof and irritable disposition.']]
220*** Sasori's kitten name is Zampano, from ''Literature/HouseOfLeaves''.
221*** Film/ForrestGump, when Kakuzu is named Forrest.
222*** Kisame is named Eiffel, after Eiffel 65, because they're the ones that wrote "I'm Blue."
223*** Zetsu is named [[Theatre/{{Cats}} Mistoffelees.]]
224** Goldstone references Music/LadyGaga's Born This Way in chapter five.
225** More from Chapter Five, this time in the anime and Website/Youtube videos that Jade watches:
226*** ''Manga/OnePiece''
227*** ''Manga/{{Bleach}}''
228*** ''Manga/CaseClosed''
229*** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tTBAK4ZP3P8 Triple Baka Akatsuki Ver]]
230*** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pgp5V9Qoj98 World of Conflicts]]
231*** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rU-nzPDu47I Broken Angel]]
232** In chapter six, Opal uses illusions based around Literature/InheritanceCycle and Literature/HarryPotter. It also gets a little meta when one of the author's ''other'' stories is referenced. There's also a reference to a [[NurseryRhyme Mother Goose Rhyme]].
233** In chapter seven, Phoenix references several other fanfiction authors. She does it again in chapter eleven.
234** Chapter Seven: Film/AttackOfTheKillerTomatoes and JustForFun/{{Caramelldansen}}.
235** Manga/DeathNote, when OminousLatinChanting and potato chips are paired together.
236** Chapter Eleven has sawdust from the [[Literature/HarryPotter Whomping Willow.]]
237** Deidara dresses up as [[Music/{{Vocaloid}} Akita Neru]]
238** Chapter Twelve has:
239*** [[Music/{{ABBA}} Money, Money, Money]]
240*** [[Creator/DreamWorksSKG Mine, Mine, Mine]]
241*** Along with a slew of other songs in the chapter twelve {{omake}}:
242*** This Is Halloween
243*** Come Little Children
244*** Blow
245*** My First Kiss
246*** The Ferrets video on [=YouTube=], by SecretAgentBob
247** Diamond apparently like mimicking and possibly even idolizes [[Webcomic/{{xkcd}} Black Hat Guy]].
248--->It didn’t really matter at the times when she took it upon herself to laugh maniacally and make the world a little more interesting.
249--->(She may have mailed a live bobcat to someone as opposed to an office chair via Ebay once or twice, but that is a story for another time.)
250--->(She has an odd black hat shaped rather like a boater in the back of her closet.)
251** Jashin has a kettle that says [[Manga/RanmaOneHalf Jusenkyo]]
252* ShouldntWeBeInSchoolRightNow: Averted, more or less. Jade is frequently studying, twice shown at school, and her school life is commented on by Kate.
253* ShownTheirWork: The information on cats and care is pretty well done.
254* SignedUpForTheDental: The Phoenix Corporation offers a dental plan. Who knew?
255%%* SirSwearsALot: Hidan and Diamond.
256* SlasherSmile: Nightingale has one briefly in chapter eight.
257%%* SleevesAreForWimps: Discussed.
258* SophisticatedAsHell: Chapter Eleven.
259--> Here, you see, is where, to put it in a certain colloquial vernacular, it all went to h***.
260%%* TheStoic: Quartz.
261%%* StoicSpectacles: Quartz.
262* StoryBreakerPower: Discussed in detail, and it's eventually decided that the agents actually have a story ''maker'' power.
263-->A Story Breaker Power is a power that could be used to easily fix the plot. It is the bane of many an overzealous writer. It can cause backlash in almost any genre. But when that same power is put in the hands of those that do not wish to resolve the plot, but to ''create'' it…
264-->That is when anything is allowed.
265* SuspiciouslySpecificDenial: Chapter fourteen.
266-->The fact that they were tempted to watch the show they knew they hailed from had nothing to do with it. Neither did the fact that someone always seemed to be getting teased when they watched something, and that Nagato had gotten decidedly fed up with all the in-fighting. No, those things had nothing to do with that decision at all.
267-->Not at ''all.''
268%%* StraightGay: Agent Emerald.
269%%* StripPoker: Between the Shinigami, Nightingale, and Chimera, in a NoodleIncident.
270%%* SurferDude: Jashin, just without the Surfer Speak.
271* SweetTooth: Diamond likes meat and sweets. The meat is explainable, given her past. The sweets... not so much.
272%%* TakeThat:
273%%** To most kittenfic writers.
274%%** To Manga/{{Bleach}} in Chapter Five.
275%%** To Google Translate in Chapter Eight.
276%%* TeamMom: Konan, apparently.
277%%* TechnoBabble: in the Chapter Twelve {{omake}}, though it's downplayed.
278%%* {{Telepathy}}
279* TemptingFate: Subverted. The study date that would have ended in the identities of the kittens being revealed in so many other stories passes without incident.
280* [[ThatManIsDead That Girl Is Dead]]: Diamond and Chimera are pretty clear about not being who they used to be, and dropping their old names.
281-->"Correction: I ''was'' [[spoiler: Renesmee Carlie Cullen.]] I'm not anymore. I'm so far removed from the person I used to be that saying 'I'm Diamond' is a lot more accurate than [[spoiler: 'I'm Nessie.']]" She shrugged, hopping up to sit on the back of the couch. "S*** happened. I'm not who I used to be, and at this point I've stopped caring."
282* TheDataBaseHatesMe: Diamond yells this after something explodes in the Blue Station in the chapter twelve {{Omake}}.
283* ThemeNaming:
284** The PC members all have jewel/gem-based codenames, though these are sometimes switchied out for other names for convenience or cool factors (but mostly convenience).
285** Jade somehow got connected to the PC members in this way by complete coincidence.
286** The Ame trio was given a Celestial Trio theme for their kitten names: Cthulhu (Nagato), Angel (Konan), and Demon (Yahiko).
287%%* ThereWasADoor: In the FourthWall, naturally.
288* ThoseWackyNazis: Sasori gets to troll Hitler. ''Hitler.''
289%%* TimeMaster: Agent Moonstone.
290%%* TrainingFromHell: IB is referred to like this.
291* {{Troll}}: Phoenix and her minions greatly enjoy mocking the Akatsuki. Many of the author's actions are done only to annoy the shinobi (and [[OriginalCharacter Jade]]), such as:
292** Referring to Tobi as [[FanNickname Obitobi]], which annoys him to no end and is apparently sufficient threat to keep him in line.
293** Casually revealing secrets that most of the characters have been keeping under wraps for ''years.''
294** Sending in Agents for the sole purpose of just standing in front of the Akatsuki and verbally mocking them.
295** Kishimoto is referred to as one.
296* TsurimeEyes: Jashin.
297* TWordEuphemism: While it isn't all that readily apparent, none of the characters show any problem with cursing, and curse frequently. Phoenix is the only one that doesn't.
298* JustForFun/TvTropesWillRuinYourLife: Referenced, and then Phoenix pretends to mourn for all the people she has likely sent to this site.
299%%* UnsoundEffect: Here and there.
300* ValuesDissonance: [[invoked]] Discussed by the Akatsuki after watching an episode of ''Manga/OnePiece''.
301%%* VerbalTic: Deidara's is discussed.
302* VitriolicBestBuds: Diamond and Jashin, though they were originally just drinking buddies.
303* VocalDissonance: If you were expecting the snake head on Chimera's primary alternate form to hiss, you were wrong. It's deep, sensual, and apparently a rather attractive voice.
304* VoluntaryShapeshifting: Agent Chimera, though it's implied that all the Agents have at least one alternate form. Chimera refers to himself as a portable zoo.
305%%* SugarWiki/{{WAFF}}: The first few chapters of the Second Wave arc are built on it..
306%%* WasOnceAMan: Discussed.
307* WholesomeCrossdresser: Deidara dresses up as Akita Neru.
308* WhoWritesThisCrap: None of the PC bother asking because they know exactly who. Chimera outright states it.
309* YouNoTakeCandle: Played with. Mostly, they just speak slowly or have Hidan do it. Hidan makes some mistakes, but he really only speaks slowly and asks for vocabulary help from Jashin when necessary.
