Deliberately Distressed Damsel: Difference between revisions

Line 4:

Well, in this case, she actually is.

While this character may look like a [[Damsel Scrappy]] at first glance, she's actually [[Obfuscating Stupidity]]. Whether she's pulling a [[Wounded Gazelle Gambit]], playing [[Gambit Roulette]], or just into [[Too Kinky to Torture|this]] [[Fetish|sort]] [[Bound and Gagged|of]] [[Casual Kink|thing,]] she doesn't get captured because she's weak, she gets captured because she wants to. She may even [[What Kept You?|have the skills]] [[Hidden Badass|to get out of the scrape she's in herself]] if she wanted to. If this is the case, expect her to say [[Let's Get Dangerous]] at some point.

While this character may look like a [[Damsel Scrappy]] at first glance, she's actually using [[Obfuscating Stupidity]]. Whether she's pulling a [[Wounded Gazelle Gambit]], playing [[Gambit Roulette]], or just into [[Too Kinky to Torture|this]] [[Fetish|sort]] [[Bound and Gagged|of]] [[Casual Kink|thing,]] she doesn't get captured because she's weak, she gets captured because she wants to. She may even [[What Kept You?|have the skills]] [[Hidden Badass|to get out of the scrape she's in herself]] if she wanted to. If this is the case, expect her to say [[Let's Get Dangerous]] at some point.

If she's getting captured because she's into it, she may be a case of [[Best Her to Bed Her]]. Expect her not to have much regard for [[Safe, Sane, and Consensual]].

Compare [[I Surrender, Suckers]], and [[Aren't You Going to Ravish Me?]]. Compare and contrast [[Decoy Damsel]], which is a villainous variation on this trope.

* Happened in ''[[Mobile Fighter G Gundam]]'', with [[Tomboy Princess]] Maria Louise of France playing this role. [[Wrong Genre Savvy|It backfires SPECTACULARLY]].

* Rukia Kuchiki in the ''Soul Society'' arc in ''[[Bleach]]''. {{spoiler|In this case, however, it's because she's ''suicidal'', and wants to die to [[The Atoner|atone]] for killing her sub-captain and first (unrequited) love in self defence after he was possessed by a hollow. The fact circumstances have prevented her from regaining the power she lost in the first episode don't help.}}
