Infinity (fanfic): Difference between revisions

{{tropelist|page=Infinity}}

* [[A.I. Is a Crapshoot]]: {{spoiler|Chapter 31 reveals that the Yggdrasil supercomputer that stored Enlil's memories prior to her takeover of Alicia's body [[Not Herself|basically altered Enlil's personality and memories, dampening her conscience and amplifying her paranoia, aggression, and anger]] so that she would do [[Jumping Off the Slippery Slope|whatever]] [[Motive Decay|it]] [[Leave No Survivors|took]] to re-establish the Empire. Yggdrasil's stated reason for doing this is that it must preserve the Empire at any cost.}}

* [[Amusing Injuries]]: It's become a [[Running Gag]] for Tsukuyomi to 'elegantly and discreetly' injure her brother in order to cut him off when he starts doing something particularly stupid.

* [[Breather Episode]]: Generally speaking, each major battle that takes place will be followed by a few chapters of exposition, character interaction, and occasional fluff.

* [[Bunny Ears Lawyer]]: Susanoo, Tsukuyomi, and Amaterasu. It's been implied that 'god' is merely a [[Red Baron|title or nickname]] they were awarded for several ''centuries'' of combat service, during which they were basically undefeated, and they certainly have the skill to back it up, {{spoiler|even without considering the hints that they are currently operating at considerably less than their full power}}. But... to put it bluntly, you wouldn't know it from their personalities.

* [[Cloudcuckoolander]]: Tsukuyomi is... kinda weird.

* [[Completely Missing the Point]]: Signum, [[The Stoic|surprisingly]], is the biggest offender. There are stuff likes "capable of using sword with my left hand, so it's not a problem" when Hayate worries about her confition, and thinking about her sword sheathe when Fate worries (and awed about how non-chalantly she takes her injuries) about her condition.

* [[Four-Star Badass]]: Taurus Bentz.

* [[Friendly Enemy]]: Susanoo generally seems to consider the battles with the cast more of a game than anything else, and has openly stated he already thinks of at least Fate and Nanoha as friends... while still fighting them. He even, in their first fight, declares Fate to be his apprentice and tries to teach her to be more excited about combat. As well as giving pointers in how to more effectively use her various attacks.

* [[Good Thing You Can Heal]]: Signum. Shamal worries that she and Vita are much too used to it.

* [[Grand Theft Me]]: {{spoiler|[[Big Bad|Enlil]] to Alicia Testarossa}}; [[Word of God]] confirming "{{spoiler|bodyjacking}}" can be found on Animesuki's Nanoha Fanfiction Forum.

* [[Really Gets Around]]: Amaterasu.

{{quote|"I'm just not a one-woman woman. I've lived for a long time, and I've developed very cavalier attitudes towards romantic encounters. So you need to know right now, there will be other women. And men. And occasionally one of each at the same time, or two of one, or several of each in varying combinations, and of course you can be one of the women involved in any of those situations, and..."}}

* [[Right Hand Versus Left Hand]]: The TSAB's inner workings. Rather, to borrow a description used for [[Halo|the UNSC's Office of Naval Intelligence]], "here, the right hand doesn't even know the left hand exists".

* [[Robo-Family]]: 1,800 year old artificial constructs calling each other 'brother' and 'sister' really can't be anything else.

* [[Tempting Fate]]: {{spoiler|Chrono at the end of chapter 5.}} The author also loves to let characters start enjoying peace, smooth sailing or a good mood, only to be utterly screwed next sentence. Or even in the same sentence.

{{quote|"Teleport functioning as expected, Admiral. Transmission away, and not a sign of interference from THOSE BASTARDS!" Amy suddenly shrieked. "How did they do that? How did they do that? I hate them I hate them I hate them!"}}

** The inversion also works, characters expecting action come in short course... [[Breather Episode|while nothing happened for several days]].

* [[The Chew Toy]]: Everyone really.

* [[The Nicknamer]]: Susanoo

* [[The Unfettered]]: Nanoha described in Chapter 25.

* [[This Is Gonna Suck]]: Amaterasu, just before Nanoha unleashes a desperate, brand-new attack.

* [[Troperiffic]]: If it's a meme or trope associated with the Nanoha series, you can bet the author will take it an run with it. Considering he has admitted in author's notes that he is aware this page exists ''and'' he occasionally edits it, that's probably to be expected.
