Inner Dialogue: Difference between revisions

Line 27:

* Zetsu from ''[[Naruto]]'' also has a easygoing, carefree side, and a very calculating side, both evil. In the dub, they [[The Other Darrin|originally]] even had their own individual voice actor. {{spoiler|[[Literal Split Personality|And can even split apart.]]}}

** Naruto and his shadow clones talk to one another as if they actually have the same personality but different identities. It's never clearly explained exactly what a shadow clone is, other than the solid version of a clone technique <ref>Supposedly, they are chakra constructs meant to imitate their creator in a way shadows imitate our movement.</ref>.

* A woman in ''[[Paranoia Agent]]'' receives messages on her answering machine from her other personality. Later, as her grasp on reality [[Freak Out|becomes weaker]], she gets actual phone calls, and hallucinates a physical fight.

* Moka in ''[[Rosario to Vampire]]'' occasionally communicates with her inner self via her [[Power Limiter]].

* ''Animerica''. {{spoiler|Kiyone did this very often with his "evil" side until it reached the point where he could no longer hold it back and the [[Split Personality Takeover|evil side became dominant]]. The second time they talk, he manages to successfully defeat him due to [[The Power of Friendship]] and [[The Power of Love]] combined.}}

Line 75:

* One memorable sequence in ''[[The Lord of the Rings]]'' features Gollum arguing with himself -- a concept transferred rather successfully to the movies.

** Just when Sam and Frodo reach Mount Doom, what is Sam Gamgee doing? Arguing with himself about the futility of their quest... [[Shadow Archetype|just like the very hated and despised Gollum]].

* In the ''[[~~Doctor Who (TV)|~~Doctor Who]]'' [[Expanded Universe]] novels, the different incarnations of the Doctor have been known to pop up and argue with each other.

* Edgar of ''[[Edgar and Ellen]]'' doesn't have a split personality, but he starts doing this in ''Split Ends'' to keep himself company.

* In "Beyond the Barrier" by Damon Knight {{spoiler|a creature that has spent many years hiding inside, and as, a human can no longer shake that side of himself. He is challenged to do what the human would do and not what he wants to do}}

Line 131:

** Further [[Hilarity Ensues|hilarity ensues]] in later episodes, when his schizo conversations grow to include more characters: a doll and cardboard stand-up of Robert Pattinson.

* Cerene of [[Suppression]] does this in just about every scene where there's [[Me's a Crowd|more than one of her]]. Probably doesn't help that she's naturally kind of a chatterbox and tends to argue with and snark at herself. This trope is ''especially'' prominent when she uses [[Color Coded for Your Convenience|Mind Prism]]: Red Cerene and Grey Cerene tend to butt heads, and nobody seems to like Blue Cerene.

* Tina of ''[[Wapsi Square]]'' does this a bit. She even [http://wapsisquare.com/comic/you-ordered-anchovies/ argues about] [[Least Common Pizza Topping|pizza toppings.]]

* Tina of ''[[Wapsi Square]]'' does this a bit. She even [http://wapsisquare.com/comic/you-ordered-anchovies/ argues about] [[Least-Common Pizza Topping|pizza toppings.]]

* John and Poor Trotmann of [[The Word Weary]] have entire issues devoted to their one-man conversations, even going so far as to refer to themselves in the second person.

* Each page (except for discussion and Troper Tales) on this site is supposed to look like it was written by the same person and therefore, tropers are not supposed to refer to themselves individually (by saying "I" or "This troper") or have arguments on trope pages. However, some tropers do this anyway and the page ends up looking like it was written by someone with a [[Split Personality]] who is [[Talking to Themself]].
