Luminary Uprise: Difference between revisions

* [[Chivalrous Pervert]]: If Euryale wasn't standing between Luxord and Hera's garden, he probably would have charmed her.

* [[Cloudcuckoolander]]: Myed, at first. By the time he wises up, this fic gets GIR.

* [[Cruel Twist Ending]]: {{spoiler|Jack Sparrow falling under the Ring's glamour on the rim of Mount Doom. And they were ALMOST there!}}

* [[Cutting the Knot]]: Saïx's response to what would have been a normal-length battle with {{spoiler|Grimmjow}}. He gets annoyed and just smashes him to bits instead.

* [[Death of the Hypotenuse]]: {{spoiler|Aerith. AGAIN.}}

* [[Destruction Equals Off Switch]]: The first step to disabling the Leviathan.

* [[Different for Girls]]: Marluxia suffers this while crossdressing to distract pirates.

* [[Don't You Dare Pity Me]]: ZEXION.

* [[Equal Opportunity Evil]]: The Neo-Organization is made up of several famous Big Bads from across fiction, so this is only to be expected.

* [[Everybody Hates Hades]]: Well...he kinda has a way of screwing things up for our heroes...

* [[Evil Overlord]]: If you don't know it's Xehanort, you weren't paying attention.

* [[Face Heel Turn]]: Vincent Valentine. {{spoiler|Though his betrayal may not be so black and white as it appears...}}

* [[Fantasy Kitchen Sink]]: Justified in that everything is separated to the world it belongs in. The story as a whole, however, runs the gamut.

* [[The Fashionista]]: Early on, it's established that Marluxia is wearing Larxene's boots. {{spoiler|Later on, Cruella de Vil shows up, and wants nothing more than to put her animal-skin designs on [[La Cienega]] Boulevardez, Xellarednic, and Jafar.}}

* [[Foe Yay]]: Vexen and Yzma. {{spoiler|Then they confess their love and it just becomes Yay.}}

* [[Forgotten Fallen Friend]]: {{spoiler|Roxas resents being this.}}

* [[Loud of War]]: Myed and Axel fight over the radio. Axel likes rap and Myed likes rock. Each of their favorite genres drives the other insane.

* [[Love At First Sight]]: Teen Tidus and Pixie Yuna.

* [[Made of Iron]]: In Commexo City, {{spoiler|a freakin' building falls on Vexen. He's fine.}}

* [[Magikarp Power]]: Myed, Ariel, and a lot of the team, actually.

* [[Moral Event Horizon]]: When Xehanort crosses this is up to you. His backstory with Mirage? His plan to eradicate Toontown? When he killed {{spoiler|Light Yagami, his own associate}}? You decide.

* [[Morality Chain]]: In the beginning, Xaldin and Saix seem to only be going with the plan because the rest of their associates did.

* [[My Beloved Smother]]: Myed's mom gets a little overprotective when she sees him for the first time in a few years...

* [[Names to Run Away From Really Fast]]: Xehanort's last name is Skardsen. Taken from a Neopets anagram game, it's an anagram for "darkness."

* [[The Nicknamer]]: Xigbar...and this was written BEFORE the existence of 358/2 Days.

* [[Ninja Maid]]: Well...she's not a ninja, and she's not a maid, but waitress Jenna Deblin is pretty tough when she wants to be.

* [[No Yay]]: {{spoiler|Marluxia x Audrey II}}

* [[Not the Fall That Kills You]]: Myed is swept off a safety beam, and the only thing below appears to be the whirling blades and grinding gears of the Pie Machine. Sora doesn't give up hope, and leads a few others to find him. As it turns out, Myed landed in one of the few safe spots from the blades! {{spoiler|It's the exploding safety valve. Celebrations are halted. Don't worry, he's fine.}}

* [[Only Six Faces]]: Parodied. The stock character for Traverse Town in the original Kingdom Hearts shows up to explain WHY there are so many of him: they're all clones!

* [[Ornamental Weapon]]: Xehanort has a pretty scary Keyblade, but after a while, he uses it as a receptacle for princesses' hearts and prefers to fight with his silver sword, Agony.

* [[Pals With Jesus]]: The main party meets Amaterasu, who was recently revealed to be {{spoiler|the ultimate wielder of light}}. They get along pretty well.

* [[Papa Wolf]]: Vash and {{spoiler|Vexen}}.

* [[Parental Abandonment]]: Zexion and Vexen are orphans, and Marluxia's mother died while his father cut ties. These are all important to their development. Also, Kairi frequently struggles with the fact that her father is the unsentimental and dead {{spoiler|Ansem}}.

* [[Player Nudge]]: An in-story example. Waka's prophecy turns out to be the key to saving an entire world.

* [[Sixth Ranger]]: Ilia, followed by all of Myed's pets.

* [[Slap Slap Kiss]]: Axel and Larxene on the way up the Tung Shao Pass.

* [[Squishy Wizard]]: Vexen's ice powers are amazing. He's also one of the most delicate members of the team.

* [[Standard Female Grab Area]]: Parodied. Everyone knows Kairi's one weakness is that she doesn't know how to break a grip on her arm.

* [[Stuff Blowing Up]]: Sephiroth go BOOM!

* [[Super Drowning Skills]]: How a few of the characters end up on Davy Jones' ship. Subverted with Myed; he can breathe underwater, but was trapped in an airtight barrel. Defied with Jack Skellington; he's just dead.

* [[Taken for Granite]]: Zelda, as a tribute to her [[Taken for Granite]] state in Minish Cap and Phantom Hourglass.

* [[Take That]]: As the story approached 200 chapters, the author celebrated by having her favorite Final Fantasy villain (Sephiroth) kill her least favorite Final Fantasy villain (Kefka) offstage!

* [[Unholy Matrimony]]: Maleficent/Captain Hook, Jafar/Cruella de Vil

* [[Unresolved Sexual Tension]]: Axel and Larxene, Vinny and Audrey. {{spoiler|Eventually they both Resolve.}}

** This was of course written before Birth By Sleep's major information was released; the story will most likely be changed so that {{spoiler|Terra did it}}.

* [[Unusually Uninteresting Sight]]: Jack Skellington is advised to go into hiding on a few worlds to keep from freaking people out...but not many.

* [[Villain With Good Publicity]]: There's a reason why those who oppose Xehanort are known as "The Resistance." Most townspeople seem to think he's God.

* [[Weaksauce Weakness]]: Axel is hurt by water. Conversely, Vexen is hurt by hot climates.

* [[Wise Beyond Their Years]]: Kairi {{spoiler|and Namine.}}

* [[Womanin Black]]: Maleficent trades in her black robe for a black leather coat, a black mermaid tail, and a black bikini.
