10 | ''[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/6688861/1/Garfield_Royal_Rescue Garfield Royal Rescue]]'', written by Creator/ShakespeareHemmingway, is a rather short tale in which Garfield is retooled into a badass of epic proportions who squares off against Prince William of England in order to rescue his love interest, Kate Middleton. |
11 | |
12 | What ensues is a very {{beige|Prose}} adventure that involves Garfield delivering lots of one-liners and violently relieving royal guards of duty. |
13 | |
14 | There is also a sequel, ''[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/7508783/1/Garfield_Prince_of_Tragedy_Royal_Rescue_Part_2 Garfield: Prince of Tragedy: Royal Rescue Part 2]]'', where Prince Harry becomes the new BigBad. |

17 | !!Tropes: |
18 | |
19 | * AdaptationalBadass: Garfield, full stop. He's re-imagined from a lazy, unathletic feline to a superpowered ActionHero; having almost nothing in common with his canon self. |

21 | * AvengingTheVillain: In Part 2, Prince Harry wants to get revenge on Garfield for killing his older brother. |
22 | * BarBrawl: Part 2 sees Garfield get in a fight with some angry barflies after beating them in a pool game. |
23 | %%* BattleCry |
24 | %%* BeigeProse |
25 | * BigWhat: Harry lets one out when [[spoiler:Jon gives Garfield a much-needed helping hand with ThePowerOfRock]]. |
26 | * BritishRoyalGuards: They try to arrest Garfield when he breaks into Buckingham Palace, but fail miserably. |
27 | * ButNowIMustGo: Garfield apparently does this to Kate in between stories, as he is too wild to be bound to a life of monogamy. |
28 | * ClockTower: Big Ben. [[spoiler: Which shoots lasers.]] |
29 | %%* DamselInDistress: Kate Middleton, [[spoiler: and her sister Pippa in the sequel]]. |
30 | * DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment: "wedding place of matrimony" |
31 | * {{Druid}}: In Part 2, Harry has a bunch of evil druids as his henchmen for some reason. |
32 | * FelonyMisdemeanor: Garfield reacts badly when he sees that there's no "lausgna". |
33 | %%* FrickinLaserBeams: [[spoiler:Big Ben]] |
34 | * FullNameBasis: Kate Middleton, [[spoiler: Pippa Middleton and Sarah Ferguson]] are always referred to as such. |
35 | * GrievousBottleyHarm: In Part 2, an angry barfly attacks Garfield with a broken bottle. |
36 | * HistoricalVillainUpgrade: This fic turns Prince William into a [[Franchise/JamesBond Bond]] villain-wannabe. His younger brother Harry is portrayed as being a violent lunatic. |
37 | * IntercourseWithYou: "Love is Lasagna" is a song where Garfield compares his love for lasagna with his love for sex. |
38 | %%* MadeOfExplodium: British Royal Guards, apparently. |
39 | * MadeOfIron: Garfield, to ludicrous extremes. In Part 2, he suffers far less damage than he should have from his whipping. |
40 | %%* MercyKill: [[spoiler:Prince Harry asks Garfield to give him one at the end of Part 2. Garfield obliges]]. |
41 | * NoSell: The first fic has Garfield [[spoiler:deflecting Big Ben's laser simply by backhanding it]]. |
42 | * ThePowerOfRock: In the sequel, Garfield is on the ropes until [[spoiler: Jon Arbuckle appears on a hilltop with a lasagna guitar and Garfield is recharged by his shredding]]. |
43 | --> "The metal of your chains is no match for the metal in my veins," Garfield said with rock and roll. |
44 | * PreAsskickingOneLiner: If Garfield ''isn't'' making one of these, he's probably either involved in [[IKEAErotica IKEA-worthy]] debauchery, killing mooks, or you're simply not reading the story right. |
45 | * RealPersonFic: A crossover with the world of Garfield, but yes. In this case, Prince William goes through severe doses of RonTheDeathEater. |
46 | * SaidBookism: Every dialogue tag, without exception, is in the format of "Said/[other bookism] with X". |
47 | ** Goes into CaptainObvious territory with Garfield saying something "[[DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment with words of saying]]". |
48 | %%* SexGod: If you thought there's no way ''Garfield'', of all characters, could be portrayed as one, you were wrong. |
49 | * SingleTear: [[spoiler:Prince Harry cries a [[TearsOfBlood bloody tear]] while begging Garfield to finish him off]]. |
50 | * SoreLoser: After Garfield beats some bar hooligans in a pool game in Part 2, they violently attack him. |
51 | * SpitefulSpit: During his whipping, Garfield spits in Prince Harry's face. |
52 | * SuperStrength: Garfield manages to knock down the gates of Buckingham Palace with a single punch. |
53 | * ATasteOfTheLash: In Part 2, Harry has one of his druid henchmen whip a chained-up Garfield. |
54 | * TrademarkFavoriteFood: This fic takes Garfield's love of lasagna up to eleven; he [[spoiler: drives a car with a lasagna license plate, smokes a lasagna cigar and has recorded a chart-topping hit single called "Love is Lasagna", which seems to be comparing sex to lasagna. Also, Jon has a lasagna guitar]]. |
55 | * VerbThis: |
56 | ** Garfield gets a letter from the British Royal Family telling him he's not invited to the wedding. His response is to shout "INVITE THIS" and tear up the letter. |
57 | ** In Part 2, a bar hooligan yells "buffet this!" shortly before attacking Garfield with a broken bottle. |
58 | %%* WeaponizedLandmark: See ClockTower above. |
59 | * YourHeadASplode: Garfield kills a violent bar hooligan by forcing him to drink so much beer that his head explodes. |
