Here, you give a trope, and the next troper makes up an example wholesale from a media work they made up on the spot.

Both prompts and responses should follow relevant wiki rules — exactly one trope per prompt/no tropeslashing, Playing With only applies to tropes (not Trivia or YMMV), and responses need to make sense without having seen the work (because the work doesn't exist), and so forth.

For example:


Tiny Tyrannical Girl
In LightNovel.The Huge Universe Ruled By A Tiny Girl, the Big Bad of the movie is Alice, a dwarf woman who can make everyone submit to her by threatening their life.

Here, troper A gives a trope, and you make up an example wholesale from a media work you made up on the spot.

I'll give an example:

However, when Alice meets a splarg, they turn out to be adorable, and she kneels down beside one saying, "Whoosa cute widdle critter? Were those big, bad, nasty guys trying to kill you for their num-nums?!"

In Series/ the Bald, the Bold, and the Beautiful, Tina tells Dave that she's always been afraid of the ocean after watching Jaws as a kid. Dave tells her that 1) only a hammerhead shark will attack someone who isn't already bleeding, 2) Jaws was about a very unique set of circumstances, like how they only make horror movies about the kind of insane person who thinks eating other people is ok, not the kind who's too scared to go outside, and 3) sharks big enough to be dangerous are too big to go into the shallow waters of a public beach anyways.

When Steve Met Aurelius is a crossover between the family-friendly Work Com Space Janitor Steve and the very adult Space Western Aurelius Mars. The contrast informs a lot of the plot and character interactions: when Pitch Nova kills one of his lackeys, Steve is horrified by how painful and bloody the man’s death was, but Aurelius doesn’t give it a second thought.

[up][up][up][up] RPG Video Game/Kirby: Plight of the Goddesses crosses the kid-friendly Kirby series with the Neptunia series which is aimed at an older demographic. It does end up Tamer and Chaster than the latter franchise. The game focuses on Kirby and his friends getting transported into Gamindustri and trying to look for the Goddesses, who went missing, and they team up with new characters who personify Nintendo-related companies such as Hal Laboratory, Intelligent Systems, Game Freak and more, with an emphasis on humor relating to the console business and gaming rather than the usual fanservice.

[up] In Kirby: Maidens of Hope, Kirby meets the title Maidens of Hope. The two leaders of said group are Hikari, who wears an all-pink fashion sense, and Yami, who wears black.

The sci-fi action RPG game Legend of Galaxia has the protagonist encountering many strange aliens, both as allies and enemies. A standout example is the Rreggui species, which are exoskeletal dog-like creatures with ten legs, five eyes, three tails, a communication method of releasing light rays at each other, an ability to eat air along with other gasses and a reproduction method that involves releasing certain sound waves at each other. Luckily, they are friendly.

The novel Jack The Werewolf is about an average office worker named Jack who lives in a big city, and also happens to be a werewolf. His werewolf form is a Gentle Giant. It's eight feet tall, but he remains completely in control of himself, and he's just as kind and unassuming as always. Unfortunately, he has to deal with a paranoid and psychotic animal control officer who relentlessly pursues him at night. Despite his werewolf form being so much bigger than the officer, Jack is utterly terrified of him. Fortunately, the officer doesn't know Jack's true identity... at least, not yet.
