Line 15:
=== This [[Fanfic]] contains examples of: ===
* [[Achilles Heel]]: {{spoiler|Attacks that hit [[The Hero|Alex]] and enter the keyhole on [[Weapon of Choice|the Lockshield]] deal direct damage to his heart, and are far more damaging than other attacks. Except that one from [[Eldritch Abomination|La]][[Chrono Trigger (Video Game)|vos]] that [[Our Hero Is Dead|killed him]] in the third story, [[Captain Obvious|of course]].}}
* [[Adaptation -Induced Plothole]]: Not the author's fault, since this is relatively new information (as of March 2012), but [[Tetsuya Nomura]] [[Word of God|revealed]] that none of the other Organization members' [[The Heartless|Heartless counterparts]] were humanoid except for that of Xehanort, and at least many had been killed coincidentally during the course of the series. There is probably a logical explanation for how the [[Kingdom Hearts]] series can continue, but it has yet to be determined as of the current time.
* Alchemy: From [[Fullmetal Alchemist]], yes.
** [[Alchemy Is Magic]]: As in [[Fullmetal Alchemist]].
Line 28:
** {{spoiler|Joumae in the fourth. [[Face Heel Turn|Though this might not be good in the long run.]]}}
* [[Badass]]: All of the protagonists, but Alex, as someone who has gone through every story, is probably the top in that respect.
* [[Badass Longcoat]]: {{spoiler|[[Not -So -Badass Longcoat|Subverted]] with Erica Karsath. She wears a black trenchcoat, but...she's [[Annoying Younger Sibling|Erica]]. Later [[Double Subverted]] when she [[Face Heel Turn|willingly]] [[Driven to Suicide|becomes]] one of [[The Heartless]].}}
* [[Bag of Holding]]: In the form of an [[Hammerspace|Etherspace]] pouch.
* [[Bare-Fisted Monk]]: {{spoiler|Alex is trained in Close Quarters Combat by Azelas in the fourth story.}}
Line 51:
* [[Deadpan Snarker]]: {{spoiler|Joumae, Alex's mental counterpart}}; {{spoiler|Roxas}} has his moments too.
* [[Deep-Immersion Gaming]]: The premise takes this [[Up to Eleven]] and runs with it.
* [[De -Power]]: May cross into [[Brought Down to Normal|Brought Down To Normal]], but {{spoiler|Alex, after having his garments replaced be prisonwear at the beginning of the fourth story}} is noticeably weaker and more damage prone.
* [[Disappeared Dad]]: Peter doesn't live with the rest of the family anymore.
* [[Dreaming of Things to Come]]: Alex dreams of {{spoiler|Ed and Al fighting against Scar}} in the epilogue of the first story.
* [[Eleventh -Hour Superpower]]: {{spoiler|The Time Fracture design}} in the third story. Unlike most examples, this one ''[[Rule of Cool|sticks]].''
* [[Empathic Weapon]]: Sort of. {{spoiler|[[Deadpan Snarker|Joumae]] is the [[Anthropomorphic Personification]] manifestation of the [[Weapon of Choice|Lockshield's]] will, and so can decide who it can be summoned by at [[Our Hero Is Dead|one point]] in the third story, or decide not to be summoned at all.}}
* [[Enemy Without]]: {{spoiler|[[Back From the Dead|Joumae]].}}
Line 65:
* [[Evil Makeover]]: {{spoiler|[[The Heartless|Heartless]] Erica}}
* [[Expy]]: {{spoiler|Since gaining a body, [[Enemy Without|Jou]][[Evil Former Friend|mae]] has become a pretty solid expy of [[Kingdom Hearts Birth By Sleep|Vanitas]], in part likely due to the [[Fridge Brilliance]].}}
* [[Final Boss New Dimension]]: In addition to the battle with [[Kingdom Hearts|Xemnas]] in [[Very Definitely Final Dungeon|the Realm of Nothingness]], {{spoiler|Elaeus is followed to his own personal pocket dimension that he had used to [[Time Travel]] in [[Chrono Trigger (Video Game)|Guardia]] using Alex's newly created [[Eleventh -Hour Superpower|Time Fracture design]].}}
* [[Fire, Ice, Lightning]]: The Fire series, Blizzard series, and Thunder series respectively, if the [[Kingdom Hearts|Heartless Seal]] Lockshield design is active.
* [[Foreshadowing]]: The [[Sequel Hook]] being an example of foreshadowing, and {{spoiler|Alex's death in the third story}} being a subject of foreshadowing that nonetheless didn't seem to work for very many people.
Line 76:
* [[Hammerspace]]: Nicknamed 'Etherspace' and lampshaded as appropriate.
* [[Heel Face Turn]]: {{spoiler|[[Cain and Abel|Erica Karsath]] in the second story, [[Enemy Without|Joumae]] in the fourth.}}
* {{spoiler|[[Hero -Killer]]: Technically it was [[Chrono Trigger (Video Game)|Lavos]] who did it, but Elaeus was the one to [[The Hero|Alex]].}}
* [[Heroic Mime]]: Crono in the third story, in line with his game; though he still speaks a few times making this a partial subversion.
* [[Heroic RROD]]: Done oddly. {{spoiler|Alex transfers all of his [[Light'Em Up]] power of his [[Super Mode|Final Form]] into Dilan in the second story, causing ''him'' to self-destruct due to being [[Made of Evil|composed of darkness]].}}
Line 100:
* [[Punny Name]]: Any character who had one in the original games, but {{spoiler|Joumae counts somewhat.}} The Lockshield itself, of course, since it's the literal opposite of '[[Kingdom Hearts|Keyblade]]'.
* [[Recruiting the Criminal]]: While {{spoiler|Alex}} wasn't a criminal in the normal sense, during the fourth story he is hired for the Krimzon Guard.
* [[Ripple -Effect -Proof Memory]]: Since the third story takes place in the [[Chrono Trigger (Video Game)|Chrono Trigger]] game, the entire party gets this.
** Effected by {{spoiler|Alex once he returns to the real world at the beginning of the third story... but he only finds out at the start of the fourth story, when he discovers his sister's bed and things have disappeared from her and her mother's room.}}
* [[Sacrificial Lamb]]: {{spoiler|Azelas}} in the fourth story.
Line 106:
* [[Sequel Hook]]: See [[Dreaming of Things to Come]].
* [[Shirtless Scene]]: Chapter 6 in the fourth story.
* [[Shock and Awe]]: The powers granted by the [[Chrono Trigger (Video Game)|Lightning Guard]] [[Morph Weapon|design]] {{spoiler|and [[Eleventh -Hour Superpower|the Time Fracture]].}}
* [[Shout -Out]], possibly: Alex's parents are called [[Peter Pan|Wendi and Peter]]. {{spoiler|They are finally seen and named in the story where Alex is [[Irony|forced to grow up]].}} [[Word of God|Newbie-Spud has said that]] [[Fridge Brilliance|he did not realize this until it was brought up.]]
* [[Sibling Rivalry]]: {{spoiler|Erica and Alex, as noted by the second story and spelled out by the third. [[It Got Worse]] in the second story, though.}}
* [[Spotlight-Stealing Squad]]: {{spoiler|Erica's justification for her [[Face Heel Turn]] and for [[Driven to Suicide|turning herself into a]] [[The Heartless|Heartless]] was that ''Alex'' was this for her Interference into Amestris.}}
Line 115:
* [[The Load]]: {{spoiler|[[Fan Girl|Erica]] [[Annoying Younger Sibling|Karsath]] when she starts out. She becomes a somewhat [[Cain and Abel|bigger]] [[The Heartless|problem]] later on.}}
* [[Throwing Your Shield Always Works]]: Strike Raid for Alex, modified from [[Kingdom Hearts|Sora's]] version.
* [[Time Master]]: Aside from the [[Time Travel|Gates]] in [[Chrono Trigger (Video Game)|Guardia]], {{spoiler|the [[Eleventh -Hour Superpower|Time Fracture design]] grants several time-related powers to Alex.}}
* [[Time Stands Still]]: It is shown that this happens both whenever Alex(or anyone else for that matter) leaves the real world for the game world and once he has completed the events of the game world and returned home to give the timelines time to sync up. It even comes up as a plot point in the fourth story.
* {{spoiler|[[Torture Technician]]: Even, who oversaw the [[Cold-Blooded Torture]] of Alex in the first few chapters of the fourth story.}}
Line 121:
** {{spoiler|[[The Corrupter|Dilan]] had a [[Blade On a Stick|single spear]], and later utilizes [[Fullmetal Alchemist|Jack Crowley]] as a [[Familiar|Guardian Heartless]].}}
*** {{spoiler|[[Annoying Younger Sibling|Erica]] also uses the same kind of weapon, first [[Functional Magic|constructed]] by Alex to make her less of [[The Load]], then given by Dilan to [[Cain and Abel|fight Alex]] after her [[Face Heel Turn]].}}
** {{spoiler|[[Hero -Killer|Elaeus]] uses a [[BFS|large sword]].}}
** {{spoiler|[[Torture Technician|Even]] wields an identical copy of the ''[[Weapon of Choice|Kingdom]] [[Deadpan Snarker|Copy]] [[Luckily, My Shield Will Protect Me|Lockshield]].''}}
* [[Word of God]]: He is very open with readers and friends about things like this and responds to questions.
