The work of [http://www.fanfiction.net/u/2064553/Fergus_Flamacron Fergus Flamacron], ''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5344991/1/A_Sticky_Situation A Sticky Situation]'' and the sequels ''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5600553/1/Secret_of_the_327th Secret of the 327th]'', ''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/8076396/1/Quest_of_the_Gods Quest of the Gods]'', and and ''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/8076405/1/To_Be_a_King To Be A King]'' follows the lives of the tamers and digimon after the end of [[Digimon Tamers
The digimon make it back to the human world thanks to some DigiGnomes, though they are fairly scattered across the city during the arrival. Two of the members end up together, but are quickly captured by a man named [[Complete Monster|Goro]]. His method of capture, an adhesive substance that quickly dried to hardness, limited the pair's ability to escape or attack. It also left the two digimon [[Incredibly Lame Pun|stuck together]] and having to rely on each other to make it out. And that is [[It Got Worse|only the beginning of the trouble for tamers and their partners]].

The series really gets attention because of the highly-unlikely pairing of the main couple: {{spoiler|Terriermon and Renamon}}. Somehow, it is handled very well and made believable by the skilled storytelling of the writer. Of course, considering that [[
The short collection of fan-requested works that used to be produced every fifty reviews, ''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5823055/1/Every_50 Reviewer Requests]'', includes both stories barely connected to the other works and those that fill in important blanks. Even the completely [[Crack Fic|random pieces]] are fairly amusing.
Line 19 ⟶ 20:
== A Sticky Situation ==
{{tropelist}}
* [[A Form You Are Comfortable With]]: {{spoiler|Anubismon arrives at the scene of the battle while hitching a ride in the mind of Isis, an Egyptian Jackal}}.
* [[Back
* [[Badass Bookworm]]: Henry. He does plenty of research, figuring out how to decipher the prophecy, but he can still beat up foes when he Biomerges.
* [[Badass Family]]: {{spoiler|Renamon, Terriermon, and Lopmon}}.
* [[Big Bad]]: {{spoiler|Ogudomon}}
* [[Brain Bleach]]: Monodramon found out that {{spoiler|Terriermon and Renamon were mates}} in a very unpleasant way. He wants the images to go away...
* [[Catch Phrase]]: "Momentai" from Terriermon. After about a year of this, along with plenty of stress, [[The Stoic|Rena]][[Not So Stoic|mon's]] nerves get frayed to the breaking point
* [[Chained Heat]]: {{spoiler|Between Terriermon and Renamon, of all beings}}
* [[Continuation]]: Of [[Digimon Tamers
* [[Egomaniac Hunter]]: Goro and his collection of rare animals in tiny cramped cages with minimal food. {{spoiler|And then he gets his hands on Terriermon and Renamon...}}
* [[Gondor Calls for Aid]]: To back up the tamers, several Devas and mega-level digimon seen in the show arrive to help combat the enemy. The Sovereigns were supposed to come, but {{spoiler|1=they were prevented from arriving by Belphemon killing DigiGnomes and sacrificing himself to stop them.}}
Line 51 ⟶ 52:
== Secret of the 327th ==
=== ''Secret of the 327th'' includes examples of
* [[Alternate Universe]]: Thanks to the presence of the digimon in the [[Star Wars]] universe, events no longer match those of the normal timeline.
Line 59 ⟶ 60:
** Anakin actually gets a proper lightsaber duel against {{spoiler|Palpatine}}.
* [[Ascended Extra]]: While not quite an extra, Aayla gains more importance to the story since she is the first Jedi to meet a digimon.
** Numa, the little Twi'lek girl who appeared in one episode of [[Star Wars:
* [[Awesome but Impractical]]: Due to their size and destructive capability, the mega forms MegaGargomon and Cherubimon are not often used since they need to capture beings or minimize collateral damage. Thus, lower levels are often employed with upgrade cards instead.
* [[Badass Army]]: The clone forces are already this, but later in the story, {{spoiler|recruitment for the rebellion against the Emperor begins. This group will include Jedi, rebel clones, Gungans, Wookies, and intelligent Acklay. Then [[Enemy Mine|General Grievous]] and a collection of droids were added to the mix}}.
* [[Badass Boast]]: Aayla has a particularly awesome one against General Grievous.
{{quote|
* [[Bad Dreams]]: Thanks to {{spoiler|1=MetalPhantomon}}, Impmon gets to experience several of these about his past.
* [[Be Careful What You Wish For]]: It was bound to happen {{spoiler|1=since there's a DigiGnome present. Numa's wish results in the child Twi'lek ending up on a ship headed for a coming battle}}
* [[Big Bad]]: Because of the source material, it would be Palpatine in the [[Star Wars]] universe. In the [[
* [[Big Damn Heroes]]: A fairly often occurance. Angewomon pulls off a particularly awesome one in chapter 130.
** Chewie pulls off an equally impressive one later {{spoiler|for Cad Bane}}.
Line 75 ⟶ 76:
* [[The Chosen One]]: Anakin
* [[Cliff Hanger]]: Almost every few chapters has one. And they increase in frequency and tension as the story progress. Readers have often commented/complained about the stress of waiting.
** One of the most chilling lines to end a chapter? {{spoiler|[[Wham! Line|"Execute Order Sixty-six."]]}}
* [[Cool Versus Awesome]]: {{spoiler|Cad Banes vs. Darth Sideous}}
* [[Crossover]]: Between [[
* [[Dance Party Ending]]: The digimon, tamers, and {{spoiler|later Aayla}} spend quite a lot of time after missions dancing in her room while they sing every song they can remember. Of course, they are often doing this ''prior'' to missions too. They seem to like dancing.
** Which becomes a [[Chekhov's Skill]] when they use their dancing ability {{spoiler|to bribe Jabba the Hutt to leak certain information to Palpatine}}.
Line 83 ⟶ 84:
* [[Dream Spying]]: Thanks to a certain angelic digimon, Impmon has had a couple of dreams of events in the [[Star Wars]] universe.
* [[Dream Weaver]]: {{spoiler|1=MetalPhantomon}}
* [[
* [[Elemental Rock
* [[Enemy Mine]]: {{spoiler|General Grievous}} becomes a ''very'' unexpected ally for the heroes as of chapter 176.
* [[Face Palm]]: Impmon's exasperation at the childishness of Calumon and {{spoiler|1=Lilamon }} causes him to do this many times.
Line 95 ⟶ 96:
* [[Group Hug]]: Terriermon often induces these and the others don't usually complain.
* [[Heroic Sacrifice]]: These occur occasionally, especially in the later chapters as things become more serious. One in particular is when {{spoiler|1=the DigiGnome pulls off one of these in order to give Numa and Gabumon the power to Biomerge}}.
* [[I Hate Past Me]]: Impmon. And for [[Family
* [[It Sucks to Be
* [[Jedi Mind Trick]]: While not a common occurance, this stunt is to be expected considering it ''is'' [[Star Wars]]. The most amusing example was during the {{spoiler|Zillo Beast arc}}.
* [[Laser
* [[My God, What Have I Done?]] / [[
* [[Noodle Incident]]: Many of the pranks, both prior to the group's arrival in the [[Star Wars]] universe and after.
* [[Oh Crap]]: Renamon at the end of Chapter 149 {{spoiler|when Palpatine sends Force Lightning towards the spot she was hidden}}. She's even thinking the less polite version of this and the readers definitely were in agreement with her.
* [[Our Angels Are Different]]: With a giant jester-like rabbit, Cherubimon, and pink dragons, Magnadramon, counted as angelic digimon alongside more traditional-appearing ones, such as Ophanimon and Seraphimon, saying there is some variation is an understatement.
* [[Perception Filter]]: Classic ability of Renamon and the reason that the group is still a secret from the Separatist.
Line 110 ⟶ 111:
* [[Pure Awesomeness]]: Any battle that includes digimon, Jedi, and clones fighting together results in this.
** Or for that matter {{spoiler|Aayla's}} battle against {{spoiler|Dooku, Ventress AND Grievous at the same time.}}
* [[Rousing Speech]]: While these occur at various points and are given by various characters, possibly one of the most unexpected one was delivered by [[The Scrappy|Jar]] [[Plucky Comic Relief|Jar]] [[Spanner in
* [[Running Gag]]: Terriermon hatred (and near terror) of {{spoiler|pineapples}}.
* [[Screw Destiny]]: {{spoiler|Fatemon}} apparently likes this concept and plans to make his own destiny starting in chapter 205. It also seems to be his biggest talent, though he can only do this on a relatively small scale.
* [[Secret Keeper]]: Due to the strategic advantage the digimon offer, and the fact that they know the Senate has spies, the Jedi and anyone else who encounters them keep the digimon's existence a secret so they can serve as the ultimate secret weapon.
* [[Shout
** Anakin, Aayla, and Ahsoka are referred to collectively as [[
** At one point, Terriermon starts humming "[[
** The Zillo Beast is later named [[Godzilla|Godzillo]]
** [[Scarface|"Say hello to my little friend."]]
* [[Slave Liberation]]: In two of the arcs. The first one is only for a few girls {{spoiler|that work for the Dark Acolytes}}. The second occasion involves freeing almost one hundred Twi'lek women.
** And a third occasion at the start of chapter 217 involving the slaves of Jabba the Hutt
* [[Spanner in
** Acting as something between this, [[The Jinx]], and the master of [[Disaster Dominoes]], Jar Jar Binks has taken his ability to cause chaos to a level where he can defeat you by tripping. This skill at causing problems has Henry wondering if he was made an ambassador by the Gungans in order to simply get rid of him.
* [[Stay
* [[Take a Third Option]]:{{spoiler|When Aayla is kidnapped by Cad Banes, the clear choices are submit to the torture and share a secret that could alter the entire war if the Separatist find out (and die) or remain silent while suffer intense pain at the hands of the bounty hunter (and die). Instead, she because she has learned to think outside of the box, she decides to ''pay'' her captor more than [[Big Bad|Darth Sideous]] did and have him both release her, keep the digimon a secret, and start working for the Jedi.}}
* [[There Are No Coincidences]]: A view shared by many of the Jedi. Aayla Secura was the first to meet the Digimon, so the Jedi Council assigns them to work with her throughout the war as they believe "nothing happens by accident." In this instance, they're probably right.
* [[Three
* [[Time Bomb]]: Many of the main characters have to de-fuse an anti-matter bomb before it goes off {{spoiler|or Gunga City will be destroyed and all the waters of Naboo will be filled with radiation}}.
* [[Trapped in Another World]]: The group of Digimon and their Tamers thrown into the Star Wars universe end up there via a {{spoiler|Parallelmon}} and there is no way for them to get back that they can use.
* [[True Companions]]: The digimon, the tamers, {{spoiler|Anakin, Aayla, Ahsoka, Barriss, and Chewbacca}}.
* [[Two Lines, No Waiting]]: The events in the [[Star Wars]] universe make up the majority of the chapters, but just as intriguing is the adventures of those left behind in the [[
* [[We Need a Distraction]]: Barriss Offee distracts {{spoiler|a bunch of Trandoshans by bursting into song}}, while Lopmon sets a trap.
* [[Would Hurt a Child]]: {{spoiler|Lo-Taren the Trandoshan}} has no qualms about using Suzie as bait to lure in dangerous predators.
Line 139 ⟶ 140:
== Quest of the Gods ==
=== ''Quest of the Gods'' includes examples of
* [[Alien Geometries]]: Giratina's Distortion World
* [[Beware the Nice Ones]]: Milotic seems to be a rather sweet-tempered pokemon who would prefer not to fight, but that doesn't mean that she should be underestimated.
* [[Dude Looks Like a Lady]]: From Glaceon's reaction, he often is mistaken for a female due to his species' appearance. [[Berserk Button|And he doesn't seem to like it]].
* [[Humans Are
* [[Loads and Loads of Characters]]: Definitely seems to be heading that way.
* [[Mon]]: Of both the [[
* [[Mythology Gag]]: The statement about what the {{spoiler|fate of two universes who collide with each other might be}} and that it might have happened to another couple of universes might be a reference to the events of [[Digimon Data Squad]].
* [[Oh My Gods]]: Both "Fanglongmon" and "Arceus" are used like this.
* [[Olympus Mons]]: Several of them from [[
* [[Polar Opposite Twins]]: We already have the bunny digimon, but now Latias and Latios will be showing up. And they're the reverse of Terriermon and Lopmon.
* [[Running Gag]]: Terriermon's continued fear of pineapples seems to still be in place and apparently {{spoiler|Exeggutor}} is close enough.
* [[Shout
* [[Title Drop]]: By Uxie
{{quote|
* [[Translator Microbes]]: Thanks to Uxie, the Being of Knowledge, the heroes can now understand [[
Line 161 ⟶ 162:
== To Be A King ==
=== ''To Be A King'' includes examples of
* [[Badass Army]]: [[The Lord of the Rings|Considering the source material]], it is probably safe to say this will definitely occur.
* [[Brought Down to Normal]]: Since Taiki doesn't end up going to Middle Earth, the digimon will lack the ability to change forms.
* [[For Want of a Nail]]: Tossing in a number of digimon into Middle Earth during the events of the [[The Lord of the Rings|book series]] is bound to have some rather interesting effects on events. A specific example would be {{spoiler|Boromir surviving}}.
* [[Spared
* [[Tempting Fate]]: "Nobody tosses a dwarf."
* [[Trapped in Another World]]: The digimon are stuck in Middle Earth.
