    Please Don't Tell My Parents I'm a Supervillain 

  • Jagged Bones. Something inside a cheap skeleton costume that really wants to own Claire's skeleton. The fact that her power only makes him want to kill her more (in a disturbingly kindly and gentle voice) implies that he's a pedophile or some other kind of child predator.

    Please Don't Tell My Parents I Blew Up The Moon 

  • The Red Panacea clinic. A perfectly normal clinic, except that it's floating in space, completely abandoned, and covered in some sort of living red biomass. There are no survivors, but there are traps that look like survivors, complete with begging for help to trick people close enough to grab. You'd think the random goat heads would push it over to Narm. They don't.

    Please Don't Tell My Parents I've Got Henchmen 

  • After Witch Hunter is caught breaking Spider's truce in Chinatown, Bull presents him to Spider wrapped up in Penelope's handcuff bundle. Spider's response is specifically noted to sound totally ordinary.
    Bull: Got something for you.
    Spider: I was watching on the cameras. Witch Hunter has broken a community truce and badly harmed a child, all while attempting to steal an artifact to which he had no personal claim. If Master Scorpion had issued a challenge there might be some excuse for mercy, but this case could not be more clear. I know you don't like this kind of thing, but it has to be done. Deposit him in the web. I'll wait until the children don't have to watch.
  • Post-Superpowers Marcia. She’s clearly, incredibly, COMPLETELY INSANE.She implies that she HAS to constantly fight, get hurt, etc...or the twin powers she is using WILL destroy her. What's worse? This is an improvement, in some ways, over her previous personality. She was so horrible, that she had to sacrifice all shreds of her sanity to ever be happy!

    Please Don't Tell My Parents I Have a Nemesis 

  • The sheer, unabridged Paranoia Fuel of the ending. Penny's power stole her body, trapped her in a robot, and plans to steal her life. She’s left alone with no allies, no options, and at the mercy of something that tends to go off on childish tantrums whenever things don't instantly go its way. Oh, and it has god powers.

    Please Don't Tell My Parents You Believe Her 

  • More Paranoia Fuel! No one can identify the real Penny. What follows is a constant stream of identity terror, combined with a dark look at how the city treats non-human intelligences.

    I Did Not Give That Spider Superhuman Intelligence 

  • Goodnight retired due to... something with Winnow. We still don't even know what Winnow really is, but Goodnight doesn't think that cutting her in half slowed her down much.
  • Spider is, once again, a giant spider (though not quite as big as in the main series, yet). Hardened superheroes scream and run away when they see her.
  • When Psychopomp almost loses control and kills Goodnight, she very much looks the part of the Grim Reaper, and it’s understandable how she earned her reputation.

    Please Don't Tell My Parents I Work For A Supervillain 

  • Really, Magenta's power from the perspective of anyone else. Your best friend, your classmate, your daughter basically stops existing thirty seconds after you take your eyes off her. What happens if Magenta gets into an accident and no one knows to look for her? What happens someone (say, Tyrant, the man who is her boss's boss) decides to kidnap her? Hell, it's probably a miracle she even managed to get home from the hospital as a baby.

    Please Don't Tell My Parents I'm Queen Of The Dead 

  • Avery gets her body stolen by the most powerful necromancer of all time, and there's nothing she can do about it. Even her own mother doesn't notice.
