Devil With A Blue Dress

Devil With A Blue Dress acts as a Prequel by Amp to Team Fortress 2, in which a number of the team members are recruited by a mysterious woman in blue. In the process, we get an in-depth look in the featured team members, including the recruitor. A fair warning: the fic has not been updated for about half a year, but about two-thirds of it is complete and each chapter does well as a stand-alone story. Edit: The Spy chapter is now up. And TF 2 Chan Rejoyced!

Enjoy the fic here.

The fanfic contains the following tropes:
 * Abusive Parents:.
 * Also, from the looks of things,

 * Cool Car: The recruitor drives a silver Bel Air.
 * Crap Saccharine World: Australia; every single resident is a rowdy mustached badass living in a rather comfortable and high-tech environment; but outside, there is the dangerous outback with loose government mutants, not to mention achieving citizenship can be summed up as a year-long Hunger Game.
 * Dark and Troubled Past: Everyone to certain extents.
 * Epigraph: Each chapter ends with a quote from a book, movie, or a famous figure fitting to each character backstory. This even includes the extended version of the Sun Tzu quote from the "Meet the Soldier" video.
 * Devoted to You: Why Spy
 * Even Bad Men Love Their Mamas: The Demoman is very considerate of his blind mother, and the Scout seems to be rather fond of his mom; inverted in the case of
 * Everything's Even Worse With Sharks: The recruitor first meets the future Medic in a gray nurse shark exhibit, setting a rather appropriate tone for their conversation.
 * The Fair Folk: Tavish strongly believes they exist, as one of his first friends claimed to be a faerie.
 * Flash Back: All chapters end with one.
 * Foregone Conclusion: One way or another,
 * Fridge Horror: The recruiter wonders why the Company doesn't just kidnap and mind wipe Tavish if they want him so badly- insinuating they've done that sort of thing before. Feel free to shudder.

 * Hannibal Lecture: The recruitor delivers a masterful one to recruit the Medic.
 * Hello Nurse: The recruitor,
 * I Have Many Names: The recruitor always uses a pseudonym whenever in a new location, all of which we can assume to be fake.

 * Jerk With a Heart of Gold: Demoman and Heavy.
 * Lady in Red: Well, blue, but think how ironic it'd be if the case were true!
 * Love Makes You Evil: Or manipulative and morally ambiguous.
 * Manipulative Bitch: A more sympathetic example, but the title should have clued you in.

 * Morality Pet: Considering Heavy's usual behavior, it's easy to see that the recruitor is one for him.
 * Nazi Germany: Medic is
 * Samus Is a Girl:.
 * Shell-Shocked Veteran: The Heavy, as a result of Order 227.
 * Star-Crossed Lovers: and his high school sweetheart Yurie, a Japanese American in a rather sour time to be one.
