{{quote| "Heh, I like that. The return of Roxas, last of the dread Organization XIII! Er, next to Zexion, that is. May the universe tremble before me as I shatter worlds and take all the hot babes and guys to my bed! Bwahahahahaha!... What? I was joking! Sorta." }}
* [[Attack of the Fifty Foot Whatever]]: In this case it's gigantic [[Harmless Villain|harmless bad guys]], gigantic animal sidekicks and a gigantic {{spoiler|[[Darkwing Duck]]}}.
* [[Aw, Look -- They Really Do Love Each Other]]: For Pete and Maleficent. Most notably when {{spoiler|it's revealed Maleficent used magic on the wedding ring she gave Pete to make it so he wouldn't be harmed by any spell meant to kill him. Even though she also put a spell on it that made it so if she died, he would die, Pete is immensely touched by this.}} There was also {{spoiler|when Maleficent's world was being rebuilt, Pete was able to guilt trip her into adding a memorial for all the good guys and bad guys that died when Oberon crashed the wedding.}}
* [[Badass Grandpa]]: Scrooge McDuck.
* [[Big Bad]]: {{spoiler|Oberon is the main threat to the heroes in the story, but Satan is revealed to have been [[The Man Behind the Man]] responsible for the madness that turned Oberon evil in the first place.}}
Line 40:
* [[Enemy Mine]]: The second half of the story is a huge battle against the minions of {{spoiler|Oberon}} which forces heroes and villains to team up.
* [[Even Evil Has Standards]]: {{spoiler|[[Final Fantasy XII (Video Game)|Vayne]] is disturbed enough by what he sees at Pete's bachelor party to switch sides in the epilogue}}.
* [[Evil Cannot Comprehend Good]]: {{spoiler|Although he believes he could beat Oberon, Yen Sid willingly gives up all of his power and sends all of his magic and knowledge away to avoid damaging the universe in the battle. Oberon can't understand why he'd give up his power; Yen Sid explains:}} "[[Star Wars|As an old friend of mine once said,]] [[The Obi -Wan|if you strike me down I shall become more powerful than you can possibly imagine.]]"
* [[External Retcon]]: Tons of them, especially towards the end.
* [[The Fair Folk]]: Oberon.
Line 58:
* [[Married to The Job|Married To The Quest]]: In this fic, [[Final Fantasy 7|Cloud]] is hopelessly isolated from his friends thanks to his obsession with hunting down Sephiroth. [[It Gets Worse]] for him in his epilogue {{spoiler|because Tifa acquires a new boyfriend (the ''[[Tale Spin (Animation)|Tale Spin]]'' version of Shere Khan) who is not only just as good as Cloud at organising the team at Radiant Garden to defend their world, but is actually there when he's needed}}.
* [[Mega Crossover]]: Almost everything is crossed over here, but it still holds together.
* [[Morally -Ambiguous Doctorate]]: Judge Doom reveals {{spoiler|that he never actually graduated from law school.}} [[Sarcasm Mode|What a shocker.]]
* [[Mr. Exposition]]: {{spoiler|Ven, Terra, and Aqua. Also Merlin, to a lesser extent.}}
* [[Mythology Gag]]: All over the place, naturally. However, there is a notable instance, namely {{spoiler|Aerith's death}}, where this gets [[Played for Drama]].
* [[Nobody Thinks It Will Work]]: Everyone thinks this about Pete and Maleficent {{spoiler|except Mastah S}}, [[What's He Got That I AintAin't Got?|whether it be Maleficent's villainous admirers]] or [[What Does She See in Him?|all the other characters who are just disturbed.]]
* [[Official Couple]]: Pete/Maleficent, {{spoiler|Shere Khan/Tifa, Vayne/Ashe, Montlbanc/Shara,}} as well as most of the standard Disney couples like Mickey/Minnie, Aladdin/Jasmine, etc.
** And Sora/Riku/Kairi/Roxas/Namine, of course.
Line 68:
* [[Plotline Death]]: Zig-Zagged, {{spoiler|When Aerith dies, they state that they can't revive her because Sephiroth killed her with the Masamune. Satan revives her anyway, though.}}
* [[Psycho for Hire]]: {{spoiler|Sephiroth, who Oberon hires to crash the wedding.}} According to the author's notes he was meant to be the main villain before Ri2 had the idea to use {{spoiler|Oberon instead.}}
* [["The Reason You Suck" Speech]]: Roxas taking over Sora's body to call out {{spoiler|Leon}} for his [[Wangst]].
* [[Reference Overdosed]]
* [[Refuge in Audacity]]
Line 82:
* [[Weakness Turns Her On]]: This is the reason Mastah S gives for Maleficent finding Pete a suitable husband.
{{quote| "Now, my dawg Pete here, she likes him more than I think she's liked any man… BUT…he is kind of a wuss. Then again, she seems to like that in a man, for some reason. She likes feeling superior to 'em…and that's easier to do with a lackey than an equal."}}
* [[Where Are They Now? Epilogue]]: One that extends through three ridiculously long chapters, ranging from funny to melancholy, but covers just about every character.
* [[Worthy Opponent]]: [[Final Fantasy|Gilgamesh]] wants to fight Sora to claim his keyblade (he already has several keyblades, but he wants the original one for his collection).
* [[Xanatos Gambit]]: {{spoiler|Satan allows Oberon to banish him and his demons to avoid his attack that incapacitates most of the magic-powered wedding guests and to trick Oberon into thinking he's not a threat, so he can send his minions to Avalon and cart all of Oberon's children off to Hell}}. Xanatos himself is mentioned but he doesn't actually appear.
