Tales of MU: Difference between revisions

{{quote|"I couldn’t help but notice that he did things like use “fight” twice in the same sentence… and “underprivileged underclass?” It also seemed like he just dropped commas in wherever he felt like it… like there was no actual rules regarding their use… like he was just in love with them as a punctuation mark, or something." (Note that Mack, at another point, remarked in passing that she had once been marked down on an essay for using too many ellipses.)}}

* [[I Do Not Drink... Wine]] -- Several of the characters cannot or will not eat certain types of food. Some, including Mack, have no need for (ordinary) food at all, although Mack enjoys eating and starts to fill out like a normal human being would once she starts eating regularly.

* [[I Just Want to Be Normal]] -- Mack.

* [[I Should Write a Book About This]] -- Subverted. In the final chapter of Volume I, Mack's therapist suggests that she write about her experiences at MU in order to help work out her issues. The final paragraph of that chapter mentions that she got 17 pages into said autobiographic writing, and then got bored and gave up.

** Hilariously, The Man himself, the only full-blooded demon to have appeared in the series as of yet, is the practical living example that half-demons do NOT behave like demons; he said so himself. He is anything but beastly.

* [[In Which a Trope Is Described]] -- A subversion in that the descriptions are misleading...[[Double Subversion|except a few times when they're not, and you spend the whole chapter looking for the twist...]]

* [[Jerk Jock]] -- Mack hates Skirmish players, though Amaranth of course is more understanding. Belinda is one, though this seems more tragic in her case, {{spoiler|or at least something unfortunate she's trying to move beyond, when we see her later}}.

* [[Jerk with a Heart of Gold]] -- One of the more charitable interpretations of Steff, especially in regards to her relationship with Mack.
