The Night Angel Trilogy: Difference between revisions

* [[Berserk Button]]: At times, Vi can get extremely sensitive about people touching her hair. At one point she {{spoiler|turned two thugs into barely recognizable piles of meaty pulp with her ''hands'', in a blind rage, just because they threatened her hair. She was suitably horrified that she was able to do such a thing afterward.}} This is in stark contrast to her numbness and apathy to much more intimate forms of contact.

** Hu Gibbet, at times, when people say that Durzo Blint is the better wetboy.

* [[Betty and Veronica]]: Kylar's love triangle with Elene and Vi has elements of this - Elene is good and pure, but doesn't accept Kylar's rather violent world, while Vi is hostile, troubled, and initially an antagonist, but comes from the same world as Kylar and therefore understands him. Kylar loves Elene, but finds himself thinking about Vi as well. The situation is resolved at the end of the third book, when Elene {{spoiler|has a [[Heroic Sacrifice]] after saying that she [[I Want My Beloved to Be Happy|Wants Her Beloved To Be Happy]] with [[Death of the Hypotenuse|Vi after she's gone]].}} It's implied that this is how things do indeed end up.

* [[Big Bad]]: Godking Garoth Ursuul in the first two books; Khali (previously the [[Bigger Bad]]) in the third.

* [[Heroes Want Redheads]]: Beyond the Shadows has Kylar very focused on {{spoiler|Vi's}} fiery hair on several occasions.

* [[Heroic Sacrifice]]: Done by {{spoiler|Elene}} at the end.

* [[I Did What I Had to Do]]: Logan does this twice. First by {{spoiler|swearing fealty to Terah Graesin}}. Later by {{spoiler|[[Mercy Kill|killing]] Kylar}}

* [[I Have Many Names]]: Durzo Blint's got a lot of them. {{spoiler|because he happens to be ''almost every'' hero from the past 700 years}}
