1 | '''Basic Trope''': A container happens to hold a smaller version of the larger container. |
2 | * '''Straight''': Alice finds an object which she opens to find much smaller objects. |
3 | * '''Exaggerated''': |
4 | ** Alice keeps opening the objects and uses more sophisticated technology to open the smaller objects until she starts working at sub-atomic levels. |
5 | ** Alice steps into a BiggerOnTheInside building, and uses her RealityWarper powers to teleport the building's exterior into itself. Therefore, the building doesn't just contain smaller versions of itself; it ''literally'' contains itself (a {{Recursion}}). How many times you go through the door doesn't matter; you're still in the same point of spacetime... [[MindScrew even though you're not in spacetime.]] |
6 | * '''Downplayed''': The object has onion-like layers. |
7 | * '''Justified''': |
8 | ** Each container requires a different key - whoever put this thing together really wanted to control who had access to whatever is inside. |
9 | ** Tropeville's museum contains a scale model of the village that includes a scale model of itself and (some of) its contents. |
10 | * '''Inverted''': The containers somehow become bigger as Alice removes different layers. |
11 | * '''Subverted''': Larger containers are placed in smaller containers |
12 | * '''Double Subverted''': Eventually, each container stops growing and becomes small again. |
13 | * '''Parodied''': "Wait, this treasure chest has another, smaller chest inside it, and then another, even smaller one inside of it." |
14 | * '''Zig Zagged''': The containers within the larger container keep changing. |
15 | * '''Averted''': A hollow Russian nesting doll can't even open. |
16 | * '''Enforced''': ??? |
17 | * '''Lampshaded''': "Alright, so we get ready to do this again and again until we get a really tiny one. You know, like a Russian nesting doll." |
18 | * '''Invoked''': ??? |
19 | * '''Exploited''': ??? |
20 | * '''Defied''': ??? |
21 | * '''Discussed''': ??? |
22 | * '''Conversed''': ??? |
