* [[Blatant Lies]]: Evangeline talking about how evil she is in the ''[[Dresden Files]]''/''Negima'' crossover. Chachamaru says that she's going through a midlife crisis.

* [[Chick Magnet]]: Negi, even more so in the ''Dresden Files''/''Negima'' [[Crossover Fic]]. He's able charm an entire room full of [[Horny Devils|White Court Succubi]] into fawning over him without even thinking of seducing him.

* [[Crack Fic]]: Par for the course. Though they are (somewhat) serious. (Meaning, they actually tell a plot and are not just to be funny.)

* [[Crack Pairing]]: A staple of his fics. The odd thing is that sometimes despite the pairing being this, it seems to work when he's not trying to be funny. [[The Sandman|Death from The Sandman]] and Sasuke actually works the way he explains it.

** The author himself qualifies as well. The sheer audacity of the stories he writes leaves people with dropped jaws, aching sides, and a desperate need to change their pants.

* [[Creator Backlash]]: His most recent chapter of Overlords and Overkill is VERY light on the crack, and heavy on the plot and fighting. His reason is because, after reading reviews from other stories, he is getting tired of people thinking he can only do crack.

* [[Crossover]]: With a lot but usually with [[Negima]], [[Dresden Files]], [[Ranma]], [[Lyrical Nanoha]], [[Harry Potter]], [[Naruto]] and [[Fate Kaleid Liner Prisma Illya]]. [[The Sandman]] used to show up all the time, but not as much anymore. Death still makes regular appearances, usually in the company of [[Discworld|Death]].

* [[Defeat Means Friendship]]: [[Up to Eleven]] when it comes to Nanoha in his latest story ''Overlords and Overkill''. It reaches the point where simply YELLING at Negi's students triggers flashbacks to previous times she's "befriended" someone.

* [[Fridge Logic]]: Used in universe in ''Thirty Xanatos Pile-up'' where, spoiled for ''[[Fate Stay Night]]'', {{spoiler|Archer is trying to figure out how the hell he even came to exist, since the story's version of [[Fate Stay Night]] had a ridiculously happy ending}}.

* [[Follow the Leader]]: Mage's most recent story, ''Overlords and Overkill'' spawned two other stories: ''[[Equal and Opposite Attraction (Fanfic)|Equal and Opposite Attraction]]'' by [[Zephyr Fiction]], and ''Hirari'' by Shaun Garin. [[Justified]] because the three authors swap notes on their fics, and [[Subverted]] because both of them are good in their own way.

** ''[[Unequally Rational and Emotional (Fanfic)|Unequally Rational and Emotional]]'' also takes heavy hints from SCM's works. Part of the reason for that is because he's the story's beta reader and even adds jokes and small sections. It now has a crossover with [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/6095074/12/Takamachi_Nanoha_of_2814 Takamachi Nanoha of 2814].

* [[Gambit Pileup]]: Name and basic plot of his new story whose purpose is to get him onto TV Tropes. Also it counts as a [[Mega Crossover]].

* [[Loads and Loads of Characters]]: Almost every Fic written will at some point turn into a [[Mega Crossover]], often with Stories that already qualify for this trope. Reading may require a Map.

* [[Martial Arts and Crafts]]: Used by name (again) in ''Thirty Xanatos Pile-up''. This time it's Dodgeball ninjutsu. It (arguably) justifiable in that it's a [[Mega Crossover]] with [[Ranma]] as a major part.

* [[There Was a Door]]: In the shorter fic ''Death and the Uchiha'', Itachi does this. Except it's really more like 'there was a path to Konoha that did not go straight through that tree'.
