Hermione Granger and the Swiss Tournament: Difference between revisions

(added franchise template)
(added trope)
 
Line 62:
** The Harworts champion -- who is certain he's unlikely to ever become a genuine Double-Oh operative -- is occasionally addressed (and identifies himself) as "Shepherd, Jackson Shepherd". How frequently ''others'' refer to him this way increases as the story progresses.
* [[The Nicknamer]]: Jack O'Neill continues to live up to his reputation here; among others, he tags Professor Antonio Piccolo with "Tony the Flute" (and the appropriateness of this [[Mafia]]-like appellation only grows as the story progresses).
* [[No Plans, No Prototype, No Backup]]: {{spoiler|Piccolo ''tried'' to enforce this trope for the anti-Terawatt weapon, [[Shoot the Builder|murdering everyone involved with its construction]] down to the people who sold him its plans. After it's destroyed at the end of the story, though, the trope is ''expected'' by Hermione and Jack to be averted eventually -- between simple science and the fact that they don't know how many other copies of the plans are out in the world, they're sure another one is going to pop up sooner or later.}}
* [[Obfuscating Stupidity]]: Piccolo's assassin Maria takes on the persona of his ditzy mistress. Not everyone is fooled, though.
* [[Out of the Inferno]]: After Hermione catches him in a massive fireball, the Mongolian meta [[Unflinching Walk|simply walks out of it]], mostly unaffected.
Line 75:
* [[She's All Grown Up]]: Gabrielle Delacour, who seems to have become even more of a stunning beauty than her older sister Fleur.
* [[She's Got Legs]]: Vadya, despite being in (at least) her sixties.
* [[Shoot the Builder]]: {{spoiler|As part of his efforts to ensure that [[No Plans, No Prototype, No Backup]] is enforced for his anti-Terawatt weapon, Piccolo murdered everyone involved with its construction right on down to the people who sold him its plans.}}
* [[Stuff Blowing Up]]: Seems to be the curse of being 007/"Bond". Even though she ''tries'' to minimize or eliminate collateral damage, Hermione still ends up blowing up and burning down multiple structures and vehicles, to the amusement of her support team, who tease her about it.
* [[Theme Naming]]: Discussed -- Hermione wonders if, based on the precedents of Gojira and Kamera, future kaiju will all be named along the lines of "something relevant" + "ra".
