Line 42:
* [[The Chosen One]]: Julie. The pendent only reacts to her. Revealed to be played with as it turns out Julie was the [[Third Time's the Charm|third person]] The Palm Tree Ghost chose to do this quest. She wouldn't talk about what happened in regard to the first two.

{{quote| '''Joyelle:''' I would smile, but I lack the facial muscles required to do so.}}
* [[Cosmopolitan Council]]: Brian and Angelo's four [http://danielscreations.com/ola/comics/ep0235.html imperial department heads], though they're different from one another in terms of age rather than race (except for Exillon). They range from the [[Evil Old Folks|very old Janice]], to the [[Enfant Terrible|very young Sophia.]]
* [[Curb Stomp Battle]]: Confusion spell + invisible rogue = [http://danielscreations.com/ola/comics/ep0301.html dead Angelo's Kids]

* [[Demon Head]]
Line 55:
** Angelo in [http://danielscreations.com/ola/comics/ep0236.html the last panel], in response to Janice's "[[You Never Asked]]."
** [http://danielscreations.com/ola/comics/ep0259.html Lampshaded:]
{{quote| '''Umbria:''' You guys are gonna make me faceplam every other minute, aren't you?}}
* [[Fantastic Racism]]
** The Souballo Empire is infamous for their hatred of Elves. Brian and Angelo like to make fun of Dwarves too, but at least they're not actively hunted and battled like Elves are.
Line 90:
** Brian and Angelo.
* [[Hammerspace]]: Lampshaded by Angelika.
{{quote| '''Angelika:''' It's part of my inventory just like your sword and Julie's weaponry. When it's not in use, it's not seen here.}}
* [[Head Pet]]: Angelika dislikes when Norveg does that, but he [http://danielscreations.com/ola/comics/ep0229.html usually has a good reason].
* [[Heroic BSOD]]: Julie suffers one when {{spoiler|Pauline dies.}}
Line 98:
* [[If You Die, I Call Your Stuff]]: Another adventuring party they meet toward one of its own dead members
* [[I Have Boobs - You Must Obey!]]:

* [[I Hate You, Vampire Dad]]: A wight thanks them for killing his mother.
* [[I Need You Stronger]]: The Palm Tree Ghost helpfully suggested Julie [[Level Grinding|gain a level or two]] before hitting Everwood.
Line 115:
* [[Made a Slave]]: The life of a wight.
* [[Magic A Is Magic A]]: Played pretty straight, following the ''D&D'' spells.
{{quote| '''Julie:''' If you had ranks in Knowledge: Arcana, you would've '''known''' that would happen.}}
* [[Magic Mirror]]: Brian and Angelo use one to talk to one of their lackeys, and Peganone uses one to do her scrying spells.
* [[Man-Eating Plant]]: Julie and her crew were attacked by two Assassin Vines.
* [[Medium Awareness]]: Comes and go, mostly for gags.
{{quote| '''Angelika:''' How did you get special colored text in your speech balloon like that?}}
* [[Metagame]]: Julie sometimes has the tendency to use the table top variant of it as one of her bardic powers. Up until recently it's been [[Handwaved]], but this time she gets punished for it by getting swatted by the Assassin Vine they were fighting [[Laser-Guided Karma|immediately after revealing its game resistances.]]
* [[Mind Control Eyes]]: Characters acting under the influence of enchantments have eyes that usually glow yellowish green.
Line 145:
* [[Our Gnomes Are Weirder]]: Gnomes have the cone hats but they also have yellow skin and pointy tails.
* [[Paint It Black]]: Spoofed when Angelika [http://danielscreations.com/ola/comics/ep0307.html dones a Cloak of Charisma] that immediately gives her a [[Darker and Edgier]] look.
{{quote| '''Norveg:''' ... Oh great. The cloak is cursed and it turned you evil.<br />
'''Angelika:''' I don't '''feel''' any eviller.<br />
'''Norveg:''' That doesn't prove anything. }}
* [[Path of Inspiration]]: Angelo's Kids is a pseudo-religion composed of young adventurer fanatics that do Angelo's bidding.

* [[Pimp Duds]]: Julie obtains the look thanks to a [http://danielscreations.com/ola/comics/ep0253.html Hat of Diguise].
{{quote| '''Rocky:''' ...I said your sister dresses like a ho but that doesn't mean you should start pimping her out.<br />
'''Norveg:''' I beat you to that joke when Julie donned the hat in the store. }}
* [[Plot Coupon]]: The Magicant Pendant.
Line 167:
* [[She Cleans Up Nicely]]: Pauline looks much better in a dress and without all the scars. {{spoiler|Too bad she's dead.}}
* [[Shoot the Medic First]]: Averted during a battle between Julie's group and [http://danielscreations.com/ola/comics/ep0206.html Kayla's group.] Kayla is an imperial cleric and spent the battle healing and empowering her groupmates. Rocky complained about Julie telling him (and probably Angelika too) not to attack Kayla. The trope is even lampshaded in that comic's title.
{{quote| '''Rocky:''' ''([http://danielscreations.com/ola/comics/ep0207.html next page])'' This wouldn't take nearly as long if '''someone''' would let us take out the healer!<br />
'''Kayla:''' I thank her for that. }}
* [[Shoot the Shaggy Dog]]: The whole Eva story arc. {{spoiler|Eva failed to find and destroy Umbria/Zaedalkaah, and ended up having [[A Fate Worse Than Death]] at the hands of Angelo. This whole mess is all due to Eva not backing down to someone clearly more powerful than her.}}
Line 203:
* [[Who Would Want to Watch Us?]]: In the website's original design it was Angelika commenting this at the top of the [http://danielscreations.com/ola/comics/archive.html comic archive page]. Now it's Umbria/Zaedalkaah commenting how much the comics suck because [[Small Name, Big Ego|she's not in them often enough.]]
* [[Who Writes This Crap?]]: In the prologue.
{{quote| '''Palm Tree Ghost:''' Ugh. Who writes this drek anyway? It sounds like the beginning of some stilted ''Lord of the Rings'' wannabe novel...}}
* [[Why Did It Have to Be Snakes?]]: Angelika has a problem with the ''Sun''. Sure it has a [[Unusually Uninteresting Sight|face on it]], but the others think the fear's quite silly.
* [[World Shapes]]: As seen in [http://danielscreations.com/ola/comics/ep0134.html #134], ''Our Little Adventure'''s world, Manjulias, is a flat, rectangular plate.
