Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })A Worm fanfic by Stewart92 written on the Spacebattles web forum. It has been cross-posted to fanfiction.net, AO3, and Sufficient Velocity. Currently on its second thread. A remake titled A Skittering Heart: Final Mix can be found here.A Skittering Heart is a crossover story between Worm and Kingdom Hearts. When placed under immense physical and psychological stress, instead of Triggering as a parahuman, Taylor Hebert awakens the power of a Keyblade from Kingdom Hearts. Armed with a weapon wielded by heroes and villains across the stars, Taylor sets out to be the hero Brockton Bay deserves… and ends up becoming a fashion model along the way.The plot makes use of numerous minor characters from canon and original characters to build a very different perspective on the world of capes encountered by Taylor in-canon. Starting earlier than canon the story A Skittering Heart is both Lighter and Softer and, paradoxically, Darker and Edgier than the original Worm.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })Warning: The story contains spoilers for both Worm and Kingdom Hearts. | |

Adorkable: Taylor. She's shy, socially awkward, a little nerdy and oblivious and as such is somewhat of a dork. She also acts very cutely with her best friend Sabah which makes her adorable. Sabah seems to quite like this. | |

Taylor is to a lesser extent this to Sabah. After going for so long without friends due to overworking herself and the isolation of have super powers, finally having a friend and possible romantic interest means she has become very dependent on Taylor for comfort and support. As you can imagine when either thinks the other is dead bad things ensue. | |

Darker and Edgier | |
A Skittering Heart / Fan Fic / int_14beeefd | comment |
Darker and Edgier: Both played straight and inverted. For the inversion please see Lighter and Softer. In a Skittering Heart, despite improvements to her life Taylor has lost an eye, her father is in long term psychiatric care due to brain damage that causes him to mistake Taylor for her mother, trauma from being badly burned during Bakuda’s bomb attack, and at the equivalent point of the start of canon Worm, suffers a psychotic break due to witnessing her best friend be incinerated right in front of her after she’d just fought Lung to try and prevent that exact outcome. | |

Relationship Upgrade | |
A Skittering Heart / Fan Fic / int_161f1ebf | comment |
Relationship Upgrade: Taylor and Sabah. They finally cleared the air about how they both feel about each other and the psychosis each of them has (Sabah's relationship problems and Taylor's sexuality and self image issues). Consequently the two have dediced to try dating and see how it works out but due to the actions of different villains have yet to go on an actual date yet. Taylor herself describes Sabah as more than a friend, but girlfriend not having the right connotations due to the sheer amount of suppoort and love Taylor recieves from Sabah, calling the other girl her pillar. | |

Genre Savvy | |
A Skittering Heart / Fan Fic / int_1777688d | comment |
Genre Savvy: Leet to a certain extent. He and Über saw the sheer number of tropes and leveling like mechanics Taylor's power operates under and assumed Taylor was a girl gamer who's LARP'ing at being a magical girl. Turns out they were wrong. Gilgamesh is also a very onto it character, deliberately playing tropes or calling out characters purposes, such as dubbing Tattletale 'Walkthrough' as she is the exposition character and pointing out Grue's darkness powers make him a brooding leader type. | |

Anti-Magic: Taylor's Keyblade, The Melody of the Lost, has the unique ability 'silence.' It is later revealed to essentially end any ongoing affects of parahuman powers that require constant input from the parahuman (e.g. telekinesis, regeneration). | |

A Skittering Heart / Fan Fic / int_19769f50 | comment |
Defeat Means Friendship: Or at least Circus thinks so. After trying and failing to steal the Keyblade and consequently hurting Taylor Parian gets angry and defeats Circus. After talking out their problems Circus leaves but comes back, jumping in to help Taylor and Sabah fight Lung and Oni Lee. Circus also gives them a new coffee table. Taylor and Sabah are less than enthused by this. | |

A Skittering Heart / Fan Fic / int_1b9df446 | comment |
Wrong Context Magic: The Keyblade. As a non-shard derived power, the Keyblade has been shown to not play nicely with anyone who uses superpowers on it (hurting Circus when they tried to put it in a pocket dimension and making Tattletale start speaking prophetic nonsense). | |

Mouse Protector! Huzzah! Mouse Protector is alagrer than life and hammy hero in a Crapsack World. She runs around screaming lines such as "The Truth has got its boots on" followed by "Boot to the head" and quite literally "For Great Justice!" However, this revealed to be tactic to help create happy memories for her because the enhanced memory her super power gives her would otherwise drive her to suicide or becoming a monster. | |

Lampshade Hanging: It’s everywhere. From Taylor using reaction commands, calling her attacks, to Taylor thinking Tattletale spouting nonsense that sounds like it belongs in a book. Generally used as a means to integrate the game mechanics of Kingdom Hearts into a written format and make them compatible with Worm. | |

Asexuality | |
A Skittering Heart / Fan Fic / int_2c0f4598 | comment |
Asexuality: Taylor seems to have a variant of this, reading more like demisexuality. She never explored her sexuality due to have what she describes as the "puberty from hell". Taylor goes on to say she finds the idea of kissing someone vomit inducing, and anything more as unimaginable she finds it that revolting. However, Taylor finds that when she imagines Sabah in such scenarios for them to be something else that she doesn't know how to deal with and is only able to blush in response. | |

Shipper on Deck: Both Jess and Ingrid shipping Sabah with Taylor. In a case of Everyone Can See It, both Ingrid and Jess could see the attraction both Taylor and Sabah had for each other and collectively tried to engineer situations where the two would be alone in a romantic setting, and spying on them while they did so. It's also implied Ingrid tried talking to Sabah into talking to Taylor about it, but that plan failed. | |

Heart Is an Awesome Power | |
A Skittering Heart / Fan Fic / int_3496b29a | comment |
Heart Is an Awesome Power: Sabah states in Chapter 9 that her power is no good in a fight, that's why the gangs leave her alone. This is shown to be untrue as in Chapter 13 when Sabah uses her powers to easily beat Circus. Sabah demonstrates this again. While not calling her ability to create shells for Espers and allowing them to Travel to Eartn-Bet as weak, she doesn't believe it is combat applicable. This shown to be untrue and in fact a truly awesome power when, with the help of Mog and Boco Sabah enters her Super Mode. | |

S/He’s given some extra dimension such as being a kleptomaniac, KnifeNut, SirSwearsalot, and having a strong desire to steal personal belongings that people hold with value, without understanding why they are valuable. | |

Becoming the Mask: Jess. Literally. Circus's real/birth name has never been revealed in story. The name Jess Quin was one she literally pulled out of hat to use for a year as her civilian identity. Circus never had any attachments and seemed to actively avoid them. However, she became attached to Taylor, Sabah, and Ingrid, enjoying the job they had at the Dollhouse together and no longer wanting to give up that identity and leads to their Heel–Face Turn. | |

Transparent Closet: Taylor seems to be exhibiting this. She constantly acts sweet and flirts with Sabah, performing couply type actions. Yet she makes no further moves, mostly because she was damaged by her former best friend. It's obvious enough that her father mistakes Taylor's attempt to tell him she's a cape as her coming out of the closet. | |

Break the Cutie: Already starting of with a tragic backstory Taylor's life keeps getting worse, she still gets bullied, her father gets brain damaged while she loses an eye, and her new home is destroyed. The only light and good thing in her life is her new best friend Sabah and her two summons, Mog and Boco whose presence of Earth is tied to Sabah. Then Sabah apparently dies in front of her, and Taylor just collapses in despair. | |

A Skittering Heart / Fan Fic / int_504e271f | comment |
But Thou Must!: During the Dive into the Heart, Taylor tries to simply leave the Station of Awakening where a Keyblade wielder choose the path they will go down; sword - attack, shield - defense, staff- magic. It turns out Taylor can't leave until she chooses. She eventually chooses the staff. | |

Throwing Your Sword Always Works | |
A Skittering Heart / Fan Fic / int_519f108a | comment |
Throwing Your Sword Always Works: Especially when that sword once thrown ignores gravity, homes in on the enemy, and will boomerang back to the thrower. Taylor's Keyblade is somewhat bullshit and in the worst case scenario can be summoned back to her hand. This even gets an upgrade when Taylor fuses with Ifrit allowing her to throw the Keyblade with rocket propulsion. | |

Not-So-Omniscient Council of Bickering: The Omniscient Council of Vagueness that is first seen as basically Sinister Silhouettes are later revealed to be deeply divided and with many contesting an quirky personalities. They still remain vague and mysterious, and manage to get things done, just not as much as they could have if they did not spend so much of their time arguing. | |

Mistaken for Gay: Taylor claims this when Clockblocker comments that Sabah and Taylor are acting incredibly gay. Not that he's judging. However, Taylor immediately refutes this claiming not to be a lesbian. It's unclear though if this is true or if Taylor is just still in the closet. | |

Magic Knight: Taylor firmly steps into this role. After initially using the Keyblade as a sword only rarely or unskillfully, she has now progressed to blocking super speed attacks, cutting huge chunks of ice with a single slash, and wielding the blade at what she describes as superhuman speeds. | |

Incompatible Orientation: Sabah feared that she and Taylor had this. After Taylor professed "I'm not a lesbian" Sabah thought her crush on Taylor was doomed and was one of the reasons she was so hesitant about making a move on Taylor. Fortunately it turns out Taylor simply hadn't thought about it all that much and was actually demisexual. | |

Music Soothes the Savage Beast | |

Music Soothes the Savage Beast: During the battle against Lung after Taylor, the Undersiders, Circus, Sabah, Mog, Boco, Glory Girl, Brandish, Miss Militia, and even Ifrit have thrown everything they have against the dragon, he's still undefeated. Then Dragon arrives to finish the fight. Instead of like Taylor expected, Dragon doesn't go in guns blazing. Instead she reveals Paige Mcabee, who was being transported inside her suit. Then Paige, AKA Bad Canary, sings. Her song ensnares Lung and affects everyone else present, soothing them and making them sleepy, taking away aggression and the desire to fight. Where pure force, no matter how overwhelming, failed Canary's song soothes the dragons heart and finally defeats Lung. Justified as Paige has Mind-Control Music as a super power. | |

Single-Target Sexuality | |
A Skittering Heart / Fan Fic / int_5f49ac76 | comment |
Single-Target Sexuality: Taylor for Sabah. In case where Taylor could not imagine anything remotely sexual without feeling ill, she distinctly doesn't feel that way when she imagines kissing Sabah. Instead, Taylor blushes and feels her heart flutter, lips even parting when they nearly kiss at one point. This is implied to because Taylor requires an emotional connection to someone to feel any romantic feelings for them and since she has only one close human friend her choice for roamnce is reduced to a single individual, Sabah. | |

Heel–Face Turn: Circus performs one in a spectacular fashion. Circus was ordered by Coil to help 'steal' (kidnap) a little girl because she had a useful super power. However, due to her connections with Taylor, Sabah, and Ingrid as well as her own morality, Circus refused taking the name Jess as their true name and turning on the mercenaries they were supposed to be helping. Jess goes on to save Dinah and declare she's giving up villainy to become a hero. | |

Unstoppable Rage: Lung has this as a super power. Similar to the Hulk when Lung gets angry and is in combat he increasingly grows bigger, stronger, and tougher, gains increasingly powerful pyrokinesis, and turns into a dragon. Taylor does her own version of this by using her grief fueled rage at Sabah’s supposed death to summon a literal fire demon that is itself an unstoppable rage beast. | |

Masquerade: Heroes and Villains both live by a set of 'unwritten rules' to maintain this. They will not go out of their way to find a Capes secret identity and if they do accidentally, they will not use it against them. This even extends to the general public with most internet sites (Para Humans Online mainly) banning speculation on Cape identities. People who break the Masquerade generally do not survive long. | |

Magical Girl Warrior: Taylor. She practically embodies this trope, using magic as her go to solution in nearly any situation. She uses ice to trip opponents, encase them in shells, heal herself, and much more. She’s a warrior unafraid to take a stand and does so with magic. This is mainly due to Taylor choosing the Staff during the Dive into the Heart, the author said the story would have gone in a very different direction if the readers had chosen differently. | |

Closet Key: Sabah for Taylor to an extent. It's implied part of the reason Taylor never worked out she liked Sabah was because Taylor assumed she was straight, despite not liking the idea of kissing boys (to be fair, she didn't like the idea of kissing anyone. Sabah was implied to like Taylor though and Taylor returned the affection and unintentionally hit on Sabah leading to the pair developing unwitting crushes on each other. Fortunately Jess talked some sense into Taylor who then confronted Sabah and lead to their agreeing to start dating. | |

However, this revealed to be tactic to help create happy memories for her because the enhanced memory her super power gives her would otherwise drive her to suicide or becoming a monster. Gilgamesh is as increbibly hammy as he is in the games. He deliberately plays music over a speaker system to act as theme music for his entrance, acts goofy and spouts rediculous lines and badass boasts as well as acting incredibly goofily and like he was straight out of game. | |

Super Mode: This seems to be achieved in A Skittering Heart by a person fusing with one of the Espers. Results seem to vary depending on the person and Esper involved. Choco Knight is the first such Super Mode, created by Mog and Boco fusing with Sabah. Choco Knight was able to fight on almost even ground with a ramped up Lung and could possibly have beaten him if not for the inherent time-limit of the transformation. The as yet unnamed drive form for Taylor, created by her fusing with Ifrit. It grants Taylor many passive buffs, such as immunity to fire, as well as cosmetic changes. | |

Whether or not it's intentional is debatable but she inspires the best in others and encourages them to not only help themselves but to help others too. Taylor wants to help people and see those she helps in turn help someone else, just as Sabah helped her and now she helps others. | |

A Skittering Heart / Fan Fic / int_8a4988bb | comment |
Mind Rape: Ifrit does this to Taylor, shutting off her emotions and inflicting her with physical and mental pain, whispering taunts in her mind. Justified as he was doing so due to the excess of rage he absorbed from Taylor to prevent her suffering a Fate Worse than Death | |

Traumatic Superpower Awakening: Taylor and every parahuman. Taylor awakened the Keyblade after being bullied and socially isolated for a year, after her mother had died and locked inside her own locker with rotten used tampons for several hours. It’s later implied Sabah gained her powers after the death of her father and the pushiness of a male suitor when she is a lesbian. | |

Desperately Craves Affection: Taylor is implied to feel this, as she responds so readily to physical affection in story. She often makes note of fondly remembered moments of physical contact. Sabah to a lesser extent. Due to self imposed social isolation Sabah has lacked much in the way of affection. The only reference to a family is her dead father and Sabah seems to want the companionship and physical affection love brings. | |

No Social Skills: The implied reason for Taylor’s obliviousness to love and accidental flirting. Due to more than a year of bullying and near total social isolation Taylor has lost near all social skills, especially as she wasn’t the most social person before the bullying. Fortunately or unfortunately she's picking up her skills again from Sabah who is a lesbian with a crush on her. | |

New Powers as the Plot Demands | |
A Skittering Heart / Fan Fic / int_c26e2b1 | comment |
New Powers as the Plot Demands: Taylor frequently unlocks new powers as she needs them. Justified: It’s the implementation of the level up mechanics from Kingdom Hearts into a story format. Only powers which appear in game appear and in a similar order to the leveling system. Somewhat lampshaded by Clockblocker: "Keynote. Grab bags are supposed to take a few powers from the bag, not take the whole bag and run away cackling." | |

Xanatos Gambit | |
A Skittering Heart / Fan Fic / int_c32ff031 | comment |
Xanatos Gambit: Kaiser tries this on Taylor and Sabah. To deescalate tensions between the Empire and the two Rogues after Rune attacked Taylor he specifically gives them territory that border both his own territory and that of the rival gang the ABB. The idea is that the ABB will focus on moving through that area forcing the two Rogues to either leave, get killed by the ABB, or join the Empire. He did not seem to count on them proving strong enough to hold their ground although that arguably benefits Kaiser too. | |

The Omniscient Council of Vagueness | |
A Skittering Heart / Fan Fic / int_c7d93322 | comment |
The Omniscient Councilof Vagueness: A rare non-villainous example. When Taylor, instead of receiving her power from a Shard, was pulled into the Dive into Heart where she received her Keyblade "The Melody of the Lost", something happened that allowed entry into her world from outside. This opened it up to the influence of Espers Who send Mog & Boco to get the lay of the land. They discover that the wielder of the Keyblade, Taylor, is teetering on the edge of darkness and decide to lend their aid. They then discuss and observe how this affects Taylor, themselves and the balance of the worlds, and make decisions and statements based on understanding that seemingly only they possess. | |

Lighter and Softer | |
A Skittering Heart / Fan Fic / int_ce6555f0 | comment |
Lighter and Softer: Both played straight and inverted. For said inversion(s), please see Darker and Edgier. While the story has many dark aspects that make it worse than canon, it also has many aspects that make it less grim than its canon counterpart. In A Skittering Heart Taylor managed to make friends with people who did not cause her a moral dilemma (Parian/Sabah, Mog the Moogle, and Boco the Chocobo) like the Undersiders did. Due to the presence of Boco Shadow Stalker’s solo-patrols are brought to light causing Sophia to receive better therapy and be removed from school. The removal from school causes a splintering between Taylor’s school bullies and while the infighting occurs Taylor is unmolested at school. So between having friends earlier than canon, school being bearable, and having a legal job as a Cape, Taylor’s life is greatly improved over canon. | |

Reasonable Authority Figure: Director Emily Piggot, the Mean Boss of the PRT East-North-East. Has every reason to hate parahumans as the Sole Survivor (Well... There was another survivor, but we don't talk about HIM) of an event involving a super powered madman. She was left with a Career-Ending Injury after the parahumans who were supposed to help ran away, and yes, she does hate and fear parahumans quite a bit. Despite all this she still tries to deal fairly with Keynote's case. She is more concerned with public safety and liability. She still want's to keep an eye on Keynote, but she explains why. It's because Keynote seems to be scarily powerful, and mentally unstable. | |

All Abusers Are Male: This implied to be how Sabah thinks. Sabah was forced into a relationship with a boy while she was studying Engineering at college through peer preesure, social isolation when she refused to date him, and her mothers expectations. She hated it and felt disgusted with him and herself for allowing it due to being a lesbian still in the closet. This contributed to her Trigger event and consequently Sabah dislikes men in general. | |

Is Serious Business: The self proclaimed comic relief and slightly snarky Clockblocker, a young superhero of a government regulated and sponsored super hero team, the Wards, shows surprising amount of insight and analytical acumen when it comes to giving his thoughts on Keynote during a meeting to assess her threat level. This surprises most who know him, as he's mostly known for clowning around and cracking poorly thought out jokes. | |

Ham-to-Ham Combat | |
A Skittering Heart / Fan Fic / int_eb0df85e | comment |
Ham-to-Ham Combat: Mouse Protector seems to regularly try and get people to engage in this with her by using puns on them. She is delighted when Taylor is one of the few people to respond in kind and actually fire puns back at her. Gilgamesh versus Mouse Protector. They are two large hams who literally fight each other, but not before both try to out do each other with dramatic entrances and proclaiming their names. | |

Big Damn Heroes | |
A Skittering Heart / Fan Fic / int_eb81c601 | comment |
Big Damn Heroes: Happens multiple times during the battle against Lung. Sabah does this when Lung is squeezing Taylor to death, saving her. Circus later does this, saving Taylor again by stabbing Lung in the eyes. Taylor later saves Sabah when Lung is about to kill her by hitting him with a rocket strike from the Keyblade. | |

Mundane Utility | |
A Skittering Heart / Fan Fic / int_eff83d77 | comment |
Mundane Utility: Taylor uses the spell 'Cure' to relieve stress, as a form of massage to relax muscles, and to help with her complexion. Sabah takes this trope to it's logical extreme, using her super powers to not be a hero or villain but to actually try and make money from her telekinetic control of cloth first using puppets and later a clothing business. She controls needles, thread, and cloth to do custom fittings for clients for which she charges a preium, and people will pay said premium to meet a real life super human. | |

Mind over Matter | |
A Skittering Heart / Fan Fic / int_f1e837cc | comment |
Mind over Matter: Sabah’s super power is to imbue light materials (nothing much heavier than cloth or needles) with kinetic energy that allows her to manipulate them telekinetically. If this is done too fast, too much is energy is added, or the wrong material imbued it results in an explosive failure. | |

Worth Living For | |
A Skittering Heart / Fan Fic / int_f43dc597 | comment |
Worth Living For: When tired and defeated after fighting Lung, Taylor believes she is going to die and she is okay with that. Then Ifrit confronts her about her reasons for fighting Lung and forces Taylor to admit she was seeking death. Then with prompting Taylor thinks about all the good she now has in her life, the friends she has made and she realizes... She no longer wants to die, the grey and empty world she lived in is gone. She has something, somebody worth living for. | |

Anthropomorphic Personification | |
A Skittering Heart / Fan Fic / int_f76b8969 | comment |
Anthropomorphic Personification: The Espers are each implied to embody a different series of aspects as anthropomorphic personifications. Ifrit for instance, is the embodiment of fire and ruin. | |

The Power of Friendship | |
A Skittering Heart / Fan Fic / int_faece9aa | comment |
The Power of Friendship: After returning to school and finding the bullying has immediately started up again, Taylor goes looking for Parian who she met once. When Taylor finds Parian not at home she turns around to leave with the implication she’s going off to try and commit suicide... and runs into Parian in her civilian identity, Sabah. Sabah recognizes Taylor and upon seeing her disheveled and distressed state invites her inside to eat pancakes and friendship happens. | |

Living Emotional Crutch | |
A Skittering Heart / Fan Fic / int_fbd1aeb | comment |
Living Emotional Crutch: Sabah to Taylor. After the permanent brain damage of her dad, Taylor nearly had a break down and relies on Sabah to keep her going. She explicitly states that Sabah is the only reason she can keep going and dares to have hope. Taylor is to a lesser extent this to Sabah. After going for so long without friends due to overworking herself and the isolation of have super powers, finally having a friend and possible romantic interest means she has become very dependent on Taylor for comfort and support. As you can imagine when either thinks the other is dead bad things ensue. | |

Hopeless Boss Fight | |
A Skittering Heart / Fan Fic / int_fc07d409 | comment |
Hopeless Boss Fight: The battle against Lung, specifically noted as such by Taylor. Lung constantly gets stronger during a fight. Taylor realizes that makes it virtually impossible for her to beat him as she lacks the fire power necessary to put him down fast enough before he can out pace her. She tries anyway. Gilgamesh initially calls Taylor this due to the contract he struck with Danny due to being unable to directly hurt her. He then reconsiders when he realizes he can indirectly hurt Taylor by throwing other people at her or summoning his won arms, then calling Taylor a gimmick boss. | |

Death Seeker | |
A Skittering Heart / Fan Fic / int_fff371b4 | comment |
Death Seeker: Downplayed: Despite her changed situation from canon, Taylor was still suicidal due to depression. Whilst Taylor claims to have never thought of killing herself, she still attacks Lung knowing that she is likely going to die. She does so because she fears having no value, that one day she will wake up powerless again and lose her friends. She can't bear the thought of returning to her life before she met Sabah so she'd rather die. | |
