Line 46:
* [[Incoming Ham]]: [http://nixshadow.com/mspfa/?s=275&p=201 YOU THERE!]
* [[Laser-Guided Amnesia]]: See [[Ontological Mystery]] below.
* [[Let's Split Up, Gang!]]: Done between Percy and Rick, and Cherry and Ava.
* [[Mad Eye]]: Vivian.
* [[Minimalist Cast]]
Line 61:
* [[Prelap]]: In [http://nixshadow.com/mspfa/?s=275&p=158 visual form]!
** And also a [http://mspfanventures.com/?s=275&p=669 postlap].
* [[Punch -Punch -Punch Uh -Oh]]: Rick lands a hell of a beatdown on Louis {{spoiler|to avenge his graduation invitation}}, but the most that he suffers is a slight nosebleed. Louis then does a big right jab on the coach's face, knocking off his glasses in the process. Even {{spoiler|Rick's inner demon}} knew this right from the start.
* [[Rotating Protagonist]]: You could easily divide the story into scenes with certain characters as focus.
* [[Rule of Symbolism]]: Rick is one of the only people of the other hospital inhabitants that Cherry seems comfortable being around and talking to due to her [[Shrinking Violet|rather shy and skittish personality]]. At one point they get separated after Cherry has a meltdown when he and Louis start fighting; she goes to search for Rick a few minutes later, only to see another woman now following him around. Feeling replaced, she runs away heartbroken and several walls come jutting up from the floor behind her to prevent them from following. In other words, ''her barriers just went back up.''
* [[Sanity Slippage]]
* [[Shout -Out]]: The fact that all of the characters trapped in the hospital have numbers on their hands is very reminiscent of ''[[Nine Hours Nine Persons Nine Doors (Visual Novel)|Nine Hours Nine Persons Nine Doors]]''.
** [[Word of God]] also confirms that [[House of Leaves]] is another inspiration for this work.
* [[Simultaneous Arcs]]: To lead up to the [http://nixshadow.com/mspfa/?s=275&p=133 light flicker.] Mini [[Rotating Arcs]] also occur since the cast doesn't exactly like to stick together.
Line 84:
* [[White Void Room]]: Sam ends up [http://nixshadow.com/mspfa/?s=275&p=185 in one]. And immediately gets assaulted by a mass of dark tentacles {{spoiler|that may or may not be his inner demon}}.
* [[X Meets Y]]: So far, this is shaping up to be "''[[Nine Hours Nine Persons Nine Doors (Visual Novel)|Nine Hours Nine Persons Nine Doors]]'' meets ''[[House of Leaves]]'' meets the ''[[Shin Megami Tensei|Persona]]'' series", the last part due to the presence of {{spoiler|Shadow-like demon voices roaming the halls}}.
* [[You Are Number Six]]: Everyone has a numeral on their left hand {{spoiler|which designates their personality disorders according to the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, 4th Edition. Read more about it [http://en.[wikipedia.org/wiki/:DSM-IV_CodesIV Codes#Personality_disorders_Personality disorders .28Axis_II28Axis II.29 |here]].}}
* [[Your Princess Is in Another Castle]]: In only a week's worth of updates, Sam, Percy, and Ava find the exit to the hospital {{spoiler|which leads to a cliff that leads to an abyss. END OF PROLOGUE}}.
