The ''[[Troper Works/Dare Me Drabble Series|Dare Me Drabble Series]]'' is a [[Shaped Like Itself|series of drabbles]] written by [[Tropers/Kayi Rowling|Kayi Rowling]] in 2008. All of them are relatively short [[Fanfic|fanfictionsfanfic]]tions on her (then) favorite fandom, ''[[Pet Shop of Horrors]]''.
 
The series was first published in a [[Pet Shop of Horrors|PSoH]] LiveJournal community for drabbles, before being edited for Fanfiction.net in three compilations:

There was a milestone celebration of the two-hundredth drabble written, called [[Lampshade Hanging|Hanging a Lampshade]], by far the most boring and unfunny drabble of the whole series. Whether or not [[Tropers/Kayi Rowling|Kayi Rowling]] ever reached the mark of writing three-hundred drabbles is yet unknown, as she [[Dead Fic|rarely updates the FF.net collection anymore]].

* [[Adaptation Expansion]]: Many plot threads without conclusion in the manga get mentioned, mostly in a [[Tear Jerker|horribly depressing way.]]
* [[Alliterative Name|Alliterative Title]]: Some of them, but "''Midsummer Midnight Midair''" takes the cake.
Line 43 ⟶ 42:
* [[Ho Yay]]: Leon and D, Vesca and D's father, Alexander and D's grandfather, T-chan and Ten-chan...
** [[Les Yay]]: [[Token Girl|Jill]] and Norma.
* [[Humans Are Bastardsthe Real Monsters]]: Not as often as in [[Pet Shop of Horrors|the original series]], but it abstains from using the ''other'' trope.
* [[Karma Houdini]]: All of the Counts are notorious for this. {{spoiler|Even D's father as a ''human,'' liable to get "judged".}}
* [[Lampshade Hanging]]: Literal in the two-hundredth drabble (named almost the same, even), but D's father gets to do these often.
Line 49 ⟶ 48:
* [[Memetic Mutation]]: Don't ''ever'' say the word "hand puppets" to ''anyone'' who has read the "''Scheherazade''" arc.
* [[Mister Seahorse]]: As befits the fandom, which likes it very much. However, it only hits the effeminate Counts. The inverse was requested, and the full fanfic "''[[Old Shame|Damned Chinatown]]''" was then born...
* [[Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game|MMORPG]]: "''Please, stand by''" has Leon and D [[Crowning Moment of Funny|playing a fantasy game online.]]
* [[Mood Whiplash]]: "''Silly Leon''".
* [[Our Dragons Are Different]]: The three-headed Honlon gets her [[Multiple Head Case|condition]] lampshaded once.
