Prinz von Sommerhoffnung: Difference between revisions

* [[Dramatis Personae]]: There's one in progress at the [http://forums.spacebattles.com/showthread.php?p=5602756#post5602756 SpaceBattles thread].

* [[Eldritch Abomination]]: Subverted. Spadotto notes that the Childless, while [[Starfish Aliens]], do not have the [[Brown Note]] effects commonly associated with Hateworkian Horrors.

* [[Scary Shiny Glasses]]: Done at the end of the eighth chapter, though the culprit has not been revealed yet.

* [[Sesquipedalian Loquaciousness]]: Prebr, pretty damn hard. Kan-za-ji usually shies away from contractions too.

** [[Devil May Cry|"Envy is a nasty little bunch of things. Can't be launched without Real Impact and the usage of Swordsmaster takes away from your evasive ability."]] As well as more glaring invocations of DMC moves.

** "[[Star Wars|It's]] [[Memetic Mutation|a]] [[Guilty Gear|Bridget]]."

** [[The Man Your Man Could Smell Like (Advertising)|Having the feeling that something was off, Hei-gu-la-shi looked at her, then at Rondeng, then back at her, before looking back to Rondeng again. She had the feeling that something was off and it was certainly not just the fact that Wedey was not her.]]

** [[Street Fighter (Franchise)/Memes|"Return to your abode and be a family person..."]]

* [[Sincerity Mode]]: When Sommerhoffnung [[spoiler: shoots a District Ten [[The Men in Black|Man In Black]], Ywiu claps and assures her that she was being genuinely appreciative. Also done when {{spoiler|Ywiu agrees with Romea's [[Hannibal Lecture]] against Sommerhoffnung.}}

* [[Sir Swearsalot]]: Ywiu, which is pretty much par the course for Singaporean ''beng''.
