Hi, [[Exactly What It Says on the Tin|I'm Spike, and I'm a cat]]. I might be some kind of hybrid between characters from [[Tom and Jerry]]. I'm originally from [[TV Tropes]] but decided to come here under a [[Recycled in Space|shiny new name]] because this site has better software, which makes it easier to use. TV Tropes is a nice place, but its interface... wow.

'''Strange Eons''' is a novel by Robert Bloch. It consists largely of references to Lovecraft novels and short stories, which it neither expands on nor explains very much (for example, we are still left wondering what those odd things were that killed Harley Warren, and Bloch -- rather than telling us -- has one of his characters die in a similar fashion and doesn't explain that).

Kay Keith, one of the protagonists, has the [[Informed Attribute]] of not being "the fainting sort" (she faints very often). There are multiple protagonists throughout the book, and almost all of them die ([[Anyone Can Die]]) -- is there a trope for that?

Hi, I'm a flying cat. I originally edited TV Tropes under a different name; I went back and forth between the two sites but left there permanently after the "gray is the new black" redesign. Despite its flaws, MediaWiki at least lets users change their personal settings to view the site as it looked in the past.
