Soulless shell: Difference between revisions

Line 39:

* [[Most Fanfic Writers Are Girls]]: Averted - the author claimed to be a fifteen-year-old boy. The evidence suggests he is indeed male, but is probably lying about his age, if he's not trolling.

* [[MS Ting]]: See links.

* [[New Powers As the Plot Demands]]

* [[New Powers as the Plot Demands]]

* [[No Ending]]: The author appears to have gotten bored with it, or discouraged by the lack of reviews.

* [[No-Holds-Barred Beatdown]]: Leif performs one on Arnold.

Line 48:

* [[Older Than They Look|Older Than They Sound]]: Maoimi.

Line 55:

* [[Scars Are Forever]]: On Rajh.

* [[Said Bookism]]: "Replied" is the most common alternative to "said", and is used so often it's almost a subversion.

The song itself was based on [[The Dark Tower]], though it's unclear if the writer knows this. Also, in the sequel "Blood omen", the hero Zain sings the [[~~Helloween (Music)|~~Helloween]] song "Keeper of the Seven Keys" for reasons having apparently nothing to do with the story.

Line 64:

* [[Unusually Uninteresting Sight]]: Nobody reacts in the slightest to Leif's monster form and beam-shooting.

* [[Waif Fu]]: The first fight scene with Leif learning to shoot beams from his paw takes place when Leif is only three or four (we think, it's quite hard to tell with the clumsy pacing).

* [[Wanton Cruelty to ~~The~~ Common Comma]]: When there actually ''is'' any punctuation whatever.

* [[Wanton Cruelty to the Common Comma]]: When there actually ''is'' any punctuation whatever.

* [[Verbal Tic]]: Leif often inserts "ehs" into his sentences.
