Tropes that are totally overused and I love them to death

  • grumpy jerk and actual ray of sunshine are BFFs
  • mutual unrequited pining
  • character A falls fast and hard for character B
  • character A slowly falls in love with character B over the course of several years, realization hits them that they’ve been in love with B for a long time hits them like a truck
  • cool badass is actually a giant fucking nerd
  • The Power of Friendship ™
  • flat “what” reactions
  • sweet adorable characters with horrible tragic pasts
  • villains-turned-heroes becoming the Weird Uncle
  • characters that aren’t actually related having a parent-child relationship
  • characters that aren’t actually siblings having a sibling-like bond
  • “I can’t stand this person but I would die for them

Argh, dammit. Yes. Yes to almost all of these. Also:

  • “surrender all your weapons” *four hours later they’re still producing knives from impossible places*
  • “I’m sure X will be fine” *cut to X screaming while approximately Everything Goes Horribly Wrong*
  • ridiculously co-dependent pairs who are basically joined at the hip
  • that thing where someone is hanging their head then looks up and their eyes narrow and UH OH SHIT’S ABOUT TO GET REAL

An epic buildup for a bad ass character only for them to get curb stomped

The weak character never dies and for some reason keeps popping up and acts like the most bad ass badass

The cute character gets angry and wrecks shit

The pacifist finally snaps and wrecks shit
