Fallout Equestria: Project Horizons/YMMV

"Blackjack: Glory! Flash 'em!"
 * Accidental Innuendo:


 * Alas, Poor Scrappy: Silver Spoon.
 * Alas, Poor Villain:, despite spending the better part of a chapter trying to kill Blackjack, are killed off in a surprisingly emotional scene. Their fight is brought to an abrupt stop when


 * Arc Fatigue: Even the story's fans are starting to wonder exactly when the story is going to end. Project Horizons is now longer than the original story, with no ending in sight.
 * Creator's Pet: Goldenblood is responsible for every important pre-apocalypse event in Fallout: Equestria.
 * When he wasn't literally running the entire country, he was busy serving as a father figure to Spike or
 * Ensemble Darkhorse:
 * Gloryjack-21, the hypothetical Maripony alicorn mashup of Blackjack, Glory, and P-21, isn't even a real character but still gets lots of fanart.
 * Boo, the allegedly soulless clone that Blackjack befriends in Hippocratic Research, recieved fan art and an independent Character Blog within days of her first appearance.
 * Fridge Horror: Goliath, the enormous train-pulling pony that Blackjack and friends meet at the beginning of Chapter 36, is mentioned to have gotten his incredible size from an encounter with Killing Joke. BJ notices a grievous scar on Goliath's mother's belly, and suspects that the injury was caused by a landmine. She fails to consider another, somewhat darker possibility.
 * Gorn: While injuries aren't commonly described in detail, this trope may come into effect for some of the more shocking scenes, such as when Rampage is torn apart and Eaten Alive.
 * Harsher in Hindsight: "I'd once heard getting your horn smashed was like having all four legs cut off."
 * Blackjack.
 * Kick the Dog: The pony working at Miramare that tells Doof that Twist likes sex. Doof not being the smartest pony, he doesn't get it when she says that she loves Applebloom and rapes her instead. Said pony then tells the newspaper "I always knew there was something bad about him."
 * Idiot Ball: Seriously, Blackjack? What made you think that licking P-21,, was a good idea?
 * YMMV since it is consistent with previous and later behavior and part of her "Mask". Idiot Ball implies acting out of character.
 * The supporting cast gets one in chapter 23. Blackjack, who has been an emotional wreck throughout most of the story even before  and has displayed suicidal tendencies more than once, is stuck in a rapidly worsening Heroic BSOD. The cast discusses her emotional state, and it's obvious that they realize she's at risk of suicide. Yet they take no preventive measures and frequently leave her alone, unwatched, and fully armed. When she tells Glory, Lacunae and Scotch Tape to go Megamart, they agree, based on nothing more than her unreliable promise that she's okay, and that she'll see them again in a few hours. Keep in mind, this is Morning Glory, the most intelligent pony in the group and the only trained medical expert between them all, who has a vested interest in keeping Blackjack, her lover, alive...and she takes Blackjack at her word that she's perfectly fine and will see her later.
 * And then, at the MASEBS tower, Blackjack suggests that she, P-21 and Rampage split up, leaving her completely alone and with the means to carry out her own death. They agree without question. It's almost as if they wanted her to kill herself.
 * Also YMMV. Glory is well-established as the most naive and trusting of the main cast (which has bitten her in the ass more than once before), and P-21 and Rampage were only a room or two away from BJ in the tower. She had to use a StealthBuck to get away from them, and there's no indication that they knew she had one.
 * Too Dumb to Live:  for not listening to Blackjack or Scotch Tape and thinking that  . Guess what? They're wrong.
