 Born to Be Wilde (Fanfic)
comment
Born to Be Wilde is a Zootopia fanfic co-authored by Berserker88 and Mind Jack. Taking place only weeks after the events of the film, Nick Wilde is slowly adjusting to his new life as an officer of the ZPD, believing that he's left his old con artist side behind him for good. That is until a seemingly routine drug bust shakes that belief to the core, and suddenly his change of lifestyle doesn't seem so simple. Wrapped up in a conspiracy to eliminate Zootopia's biggest criminals, Nick will have to choose once and for all which path to follow.Despite that rather serious premise, Born to Be Wilde is often anything but, relying extensively on Rule of Funny and Rule of Cool while still telling exactly the story it sets out to in between the increasingly self-aware humor. Take one look at its actual summary or its tags on A03 to get an idea.It can be read on Fanfiction here or A03 here.A oneshot compilation titled Born to Be Drabbles was later released, aiming to further explore some of the plot points that the main story couldn't quite cover. It too can be read on Fanfiction or A03. As these are intended to be intertwined with the main story, the recommended reading order can be found here.The side-story Bloodlines has its own page.WARNING: For the sake of readability, all spoilers prior to Chapter 14 are unmarked. And there are many. Read at your own risk.

Darker and Edgier: The original movie was your usual Disney fare, apart from a few frightening scenes, mild sexual innuendos and heavy themes such as racism and political conspiracy. This fanfic has a lot more violence, blood, actual deaths, mild swearing, intoxication, drug use, and at least one penis joke.

Big, Screwed-Up Family: A recurring theme. The story involves at least four families with criminal ties and a lot of internal conflict: the Lang, Rodentriguez, Wilde, and VanDal families. In the footnotes of Chapter 24, the authors ask the readers who they think is the most effed up family so far.

Continuity Porn: The fic is filled to the brim with not only Continuity Nods and Call Backs to the original movie, but also utilizes several unused locations and characters that only appear in concept art. It's own increasingly-complex continuity also gets referenced frequently in later chapters.

comment
Drabble 10: For the first time, all of the Zootopian crime lords (and their predecessors) are seen meeting and interacting with each other, including Vladzotz. Halfway through, it suddenly turns into John Wilde's Start of Darkness and we see the event that made him detest the crime lords firsthand. It also one-ups Chapter 27 by implying that there may have actually been seven crime lords at some point.

Chekhov's Gun
 Born to Be Wilde (Fanfic) / int_22cf536c
comment
Chekhov's Gun: Reynard decides to store a Night Howler pellet inside of his cane in Chapter 16. It is mentioned again in Chapter 23, but still has yet to be used. Finally fired in Chapter 37, with Finnick on the receiving end. It even gets a reference to the Trope Namer. Parodied with the HB file that Reynard carries around. It starts out subtle, making its first appearance amidst a bunch of other random items that you might not pick up on, but it gets to the point where it's practically thrust in your face how important it is while still not revealing what it actually contains. Until Chapter 33, where it is finally revealed to be about the "Happy Birthday Project", or more specifically, Wilde Times. Reynard promptly burns the actual file immediately afterward.

GunsAreUseless
 Born to Be Wilde (Fanfic) / int_24224f64
comment
Guns Are Useless: Played With. Most evident with the ZPD's tranq guns, which almost always prove ineffective, although it's often because their user gets disarmed before they have the opportunity to actually use them. On the rare occasion they actually hit something, it's either the wrong target altogether (like the giraffe clubber in Chapter 8) or the target is simply big enough to shrug it off (like Koslov in Chapter 13). Actual firearms, on the other hand, are treated much more seriously; all it takes for Felix to get everyone to back off from Nick in Chapter 14 is to wave a gun in their faces. The uselessness of the tranq guns is lampshaded:

No-Holds-Barred Beatdown: Fangs and Boomer come very close to killing Nick when they take the Feral Dream pellets in chapter eight. Nick is barely able to put up any fight, resorting to unsuccessfully begging them to stop. The fight between Judy and Simon in Chapter 26 also is extremely brutal. However, after the fight, Karen claims that Simon was holding back, because he didn't want to kill Judy.

Mythology Gag
 Born to Be Wilde (Fanfic) / int_26ac510e
comment
Mythology Gag: Some elements from the earlier, "tame collar" version of Zootopia are worked into this story. An actual tame collar is worn by Harvey Montapue. Nick's father had a clothes shop named "Suitopia". The fact that the Count's henchmen all wear sharp suits is an indication of his true identity. Jack Savage, a bunny spy who was initially planned to be a protagonist but was dropped early in development, is mentioned as an in-universe spy movie protagonist. Later revealed to be an actual spy whose cover is a spy movie protagonist. The Count's HB Project is ultimately revealed to be Wilde Times, once a pred-friendly theme park that Nick used to let predators take off their collars and run free in the original concept. The park itself is very different, but Reynard gets on Finnick's case about the sign spelling it "Wild Times", which is actually how it was originally going to be spelled. In Chapter 25, Simon's incorrect notes about the police officers' names is a reference to the Flip-Flop of God regarding which name belongs to which animal - whether Fangmeyer's a wolf or a tiger, Delgato's a tiger or a lion, and whether Francine's last name is Trunkaby or Pennington.

Bilingual Bonus: The Masked Luchador characters all have Spanish names. "El Orgullo" means "the pride". He's a lionnote A group of lions is called a "pride" in English, although in Spanish it is called a "manada" rather than an "orgullo". "La Mala Perra" means "the bad she-dog" (or, as per Word of God, "the bad bitch"). "La Niñita" means "The Little Girl". "La Sangrienta Baronesa" means "The Bloody Baroness".

Plot Armor: Lampshaded, especially in regards to the ZPD's tranq guns and why they never hit anyone important. Eventually, the Big Bad outright challenges Bogo to shoot him, knowing it'll never work. Reynard deflects the dart with his Sword Cane, causing it to ricochet back into Bogo's gun, destroying them both. He even admits that he has no idea how he did that.

Fantastic Slur: "Trash panda" is apparently a slur for raccoons. During the Cold-Blooded War, reptiles were commonly referred to as "scalies", which is clearly offensive as Karen gives Simon a Death Glare when she hears Kyle saying it. Kyle then wonders if the reptiles refer to mammals as "furries."

A Birthday, Not a Break: A key plot point. Reynard's grand HB Project actually stands for 'Happy Birthday Project', and is intended as a twisted gift for his son's 33rd birthday. When the day arrives, Nick ends up leading a raid on Reynard's amusement park, reuniting with Finnick, and finally facing off against his own father within a day.

National Animal Stereotypes
 Born to Be Wilde (Fanfic) / int_355fde0e
comment
National Animal Stereotypes: The citizens of Outback Island, based on Australian Wildlife, are all stereotypical Aussies. Averted with Carla Hyenandez, Sandcat Sanchez and El Orgullo, who are Hispanic characters based on African mammals.note Historically, there were parts of Africa that were colonized by Spain, including the Spanish Sahara, Spanish Guinea and the Spanish protectorate of Morocco, but the characters are closer to Mexican stereotypes, down to living in a town named New Mexicow. Played straight with Sandcat's henchman Gomez, a Spanish fighting bull wearing a matador outfit. Mrs. Pong is a panda running a Chinese restaurant (that is based on Mr. Ping's restaurant from Kung Fu Panda). Koslov, the polar bear mafioso with a Russian name and accent, also runs a borscht restaurant.

Awful Truth: A few big ones. First, the Count's true identity as John Wilde, triggering a Heroic BSoD in Nick so severe that he goes on a downward spiral of lies and impulsiveness that ends up making things a lot worse for himself. Soon after, there's Jimmy learning that Carla Hyenandez is The Mole, which causes him and everyone else she'd been associated with a good deal of distress.

Rule of Cool: The fic features numerous flashy and over-the-top action scenes that really only happen because they look cool. This is also the reason why the ZPD's tranq guns never do the job, to the point of Lampshade Hanging.

Properly Paranoid
 Born to Be Wilde (Fanfic) / int_3aec9e5e
comment
Drabble 20: One of the biggest whams yet. It's finally revealed how Simon lost his leg, which involved his house being blown up by a sleeper agent from the Sauriet Union. And there is an unknown number of other such agents planted all throughout Zootopia, who can easily be just about any of the numerous characters introduced thus far, with no indication of where or when they'll strike. Narwhalter's paranoia starts to make a lot of sense.

Interesting Situation Duel
 Born to Be Wilde (Fanfic) / int_3c689563
comment
Interesting Situation Duel: Most of the major fight scenes fall under this, including: A fight in a naturalist disco club, featuring a drunk Judy, two feral mammals, and a tattooed hippo. A biker duel between two riders in tricked-out, weaponized bikes. A Car Chase along a rainy highway involving about five different factions. A chase through the Grand Palms Hotel across several different floors. A two-on-two tag-team luchador match. A showdown in the middle of Precinct 1, in the midst of a lockdown, and ending in the boiler room. A battle atop a vintage pirate ship, involving four separate duels and at least half of the participants dressed for the occasion. An underwater chase, interspersed with a group battle on an underwater, constantly shifting train, and a fight in a wrestling ring tricked out with death traps. A mock lightsaber duel whilst riding a roller coaster through a mockup of outer space.

Curb-Stomp Battle
 Born to Be Wilde (Fanfic) / int_3d699462
comment
Curb-Stomp Battle: Judy and Carla vs. Simon in Chapter 6. For perspective, most fight scenes in BtBW take up the better part of a chapter; this one lasts about half a page. Much later, Just Judy vs. Simon goes about as well as you'd expect, at least initially. Another big one is Felix vs. the Discards in Chapter 29. Outnumbered five-to-one, Felix tears right through them.

Climax Boss: Most of the major arcs end with one, but for the story as a whole, Count Reynard in Chapter 21. The Big Bad of the story and the source of Nick’s inner turmoil for most of it up until this point. Nick defeating him both physically and mentally marks a turning point in his Character Development and how the rest of the story will play out. Chapter 26 features another major one in Simon, who has been one of the most prominent antagonists in the story and the one who started it all by killing Mr. Big.

Wretched Hive
 Born to Be Wilde (Fanfic) / int_40cbee83
comment
Wretched Hive: The Nocturnal District is so hopelessly crime-ridden that it's become oddly institutionalized. There are traffic lights to regulate gang warfare and dark alleys that advertise themselves on how well they'll get you mugged. Its local police force, Precinct 7, is so utterly overwhelmed that they might as well not even exist. All of this was caused by a combination of its seclusion from the rest of Zootopia and the loss of its crime lord creating an Evil Power Vacuum that was never filled. A more subtle example is Foxden, which initially appears to be a bright, cheerful suburbia with overly friendly neighbors. Then it's revealed that all of those neighbors are just criminals playing a role and that the town is not only controlled entirely by the mob, it effectively is the mob.

Story Arc
 Born to Be Wilde (Fanfic) / int_42008602
comment
Story Arc: The fic is split into six main arcs, each centering around a different one of Zootopia’s crime lords and their territories, with intermissions in between. These are: Tundratown/Mr. Big arc - Chapters 1-4 Outback Island/Thornbrush arc - Chapters 6-9 Rainforest District/Lang Family arc - Chapters 11-15 Sahara Square/Sanchez arc - Chapters 18-23 The Docks/Narwhalter arc - Chapters 27-32 Wilde Times/Reynard arc - Chapters 34-39 The Narwhalter arc has a sub-arc involving the Belfry happening simultaneously as the B-plot. While it is officially considered an intermission, Chapters 24-26 could be considered an arc in its own right, as all three chapters revolve around Simon holding the ZPD hostage to extract information from them, while his wife manipulates the ZPD into capturing him. Born to Be Drabbles has the Vexey arc spanning throughout, consisting of Drabbles 5, 11, 16, and 24.

Happily Adopted: The entire Lang Family. Not one of them is actually related to Lady Lang, but they treat her as their mother regardless because she's the only family most of them ever had. They are fanatically loyal to her because of this. The sole exception is Fast Tony, who is hated by the rest of the pack for his blatant disloyalty. Carla is also adopted, by a pack of rats no less and while she's not exactly very happy she genuinely loves her family.

"And until that investigation is concluded, you are hereby suspended from duty. Turn in Your Badge." Lucy revealing The Mole in the ZPD's midst. "Well, well, it looks like your time has come Carla. Or should I call you Joker?" The Count's change in priorities. "It's not just the crime lords I should be targeting..it's all of you!" Referring to the ZPD. Almost immediately after, Marian waking up. "Nich...olas? Is...that...you?" The first sign that Drabbles isn't exempt from big game changers. "How can you expect to get anywhere living in your father's shadow, Lady Reynard?" The Count revealing his first victims. "So I abducted those children, chained them to the inside of their own bus, muzzled them all, and then lit up the specist little pricks like a Spring Break bonfire." The very casual reveal of what the HB Project really is. "My son deserves the very best presentation I can provide tomorrow. The Happy Birthday Project wouldn't be anything without him, right?" Even Finnick needs a second to notice.

Painting the Medium
 Born to Be Wilde (Fanfic) / int_5009999d
comment
Painting the Medium: Each scene is marked with a stamp displaying the location (usually a district of Zootopia), sub-location (the specific place they're in, sometimes with its own sub-location), and the time of day. These are based on the perceptions of the character(s) involved, not what they actually are, and occasionally get altered to reflect that. Best displayed in the Belfry sub-arc. Nothing about the place or time is known to Carla or displayed for the reader at the beginning. Once she learns the place is called the Belfry, that gets added. Once she learns it's in the Nocturnal District, that gets added. Once she learns what the current challenge involves, that gets added too. And as she has no means of ever telling the time, every time stamp during that arc is just various phrases based around the word "time".

They're implied to be a fairly realistic size, as even Judy (a rabbit) has to squeeze into them, and her pursuer is too big to follow. Lucy uses another one in Drabble 6. Unfortunately for her, Reynard is a bit more Genre Savvy and booby-trapped it.

Animal Stereotypes
 Born to Be Wilde (Fanfic) / int_61d054a0
comment
Animal Stereotypes: Like the original movie, this fanfic likes to play around with them. Hyenas are often portrayed as laughing at everything. Carla Hyenandez has No Sense of Humor. But her Masked Luchador persona, "La Mala Perra" is known for her manic laughter. In cartoons, even male kangaroos have pouches. Boomer doesn't have one, and implying that he does is his Berserk Button. On the other hand, his violent behavior fits the Boxing Kangaroo stereotype, minus the gloves. Fangs, a dingo, once mentions that his species has the reputation of eating babies. Koalas are usually thought of as cute and innocent. Damien Thornbrush is a crime lord who wants to avoid the stereotype by wearing fake fangs and claiming he's a drop bear. Lucy Sang, the vampire bat thief is a very straight example of the Bat Out of Hell stereotype, being creepy, sadistic, and literally bloodthirsty. The Lang Family, a pack of wolves, are both violent and honorable (if not too bright), and prefer to attack as a team.

comment
During the Cold-Blooded War, reptiles were commonly referred to as "scalies", which is clearly offensive as Karen gives Simon a Death Glare when she hears Kyle saying it. Kyle then wonders if the reptiles refer to mammals as "furries."

Species Subversives: Carla Hyenandez inverts both Heinous Hyena and The Hyena, seeing as she's not that morally unsavoury despite being The Mole, and she doesn't have a sense of humour.

Sequel Hook
 Born to Be Wilde (Fanfic) / int_6293c185
comment
Sequel Hook: Chapter 39 teases at least three, two of which hit harder for those who have kept up with the drabbles. Fangs and Boomer know of the existence of another drug, more dangerous than Feral Dream or even Night Howlers, that Thornbrush was working on before his death. And at least one test batch has already been sold. Reynard predicts that Nick will soon meet someone he should have met a long time ago, clearly hinting at his adoptive sister, Vixey. And of course, the events of the finale have kicked the doors wide open for a certain secret organization to start moving in.

Systematic Villain Takedown: The final arc is made of this. Chapter 35 has F.R.E.N.E.M.Y. taking on the majority of Reynard's forces outside of Wilde Times, including all the basic mooks and several of his lieutenants, plus his Cool Car. In Chapter 36, they go inside the park itself and split up to deal with the rest of the lieutenants, the more important ones, along with Felix Dire Senior and RJ. By the end of the chapter, all that's left of Reynard's criminal empire is Reynard himself.

For Want of a Nail
 Born to Be Wilde (Fanfic) / int_79a60aec
comment
For Want Of A Nail: A concept thoroughly explored in Drabble 21, which is also named after it. In this verse, Harvey Montapue burned down Castle Fangpyre instead of Nick Wilde. This seemingly results in Vladzotz kicking the bucket until the drabble reveals that he survived and went into hiding instead of attempting to take revenge. Why? Because Harvey's relative lack of skill at the time compared to Nick resulted in not only Vladzotz but his family escaping the blaze, and Vlad promptly took off with them rather than risk their lives further. Vlad thus retires peacefully and happily with his loved ones. But on the flipside, his departure creates an Evil Power Vacuum that tears apart the Nocturnal District while his ship with Lucy Sang from When Instinct Falls gets torpedoed due to him still being married, to her distress.

Denser and Wackier: The story starts out fairly mundane, but by the second arc you've got the gang heading into a naturalist disco club, a koala kingpin who thinks he's a drop bear, Judy getting accidentally drunk, and a hilariously inept interrogation scene to cap it all off. It gets progressively zanier from there, and stuff like a wallaby headbutting a tank shell during the finale doesn't bat an eye because that sort of thing is just expected now.

Suddenly Sober: Zig-zagged. Judy goes through an entire chase and fight with Lucy Sang completely doped after drinking a glass of "non-alcoholic" carrot juice, lasting at least ten minutes. By the time it's finished and Lucy escapes, she's still sloshed... that is, until she sees Nick's body lying in a pool of blood. Then the Precinct 5 officers bust in, and due to a bad impression resulting from the fight, she's shot with a tranq dart. When she comes to, the blend of tranquilizer and the remaining alcohol has sent her right back to being heavily doped.

Wham Episode
 Born to Be Wilde (Fanfic) / int_8e20979
comment
Wham Episode: Big twists are dropped pretty regularly, but these ones stand out: Chapter 2: Right off the bat, Nick is forced to arrest Finnick and Mr. Big is murdered. Chapter 14: The Count's true identity is revealed to be John Wilde. Chapter 17: Finnick is released from ZPD custody after the evidence against him is stolen, Nick is framed for the theft, and suspended from the force. He soon after goes Cowboy Cop and decides to take down Reynard himself while Judy decides to track down Nick's mother for help. Chapter 20: Nick's extended backstory is revealed through both of his parents. And right when it seems like this chapter is going to be nothing but exposition, Marian is shot by a vengeful Felix. Chapter 21: Nick finally gets his act together and takes down his father, both physically and emotionally. Reynard gets away, but is left broken while Nick turns himself in. Chapter 23: In case you thought Sanchez was safe after Reynard's retreat, nope! Carla is revealed to have been The Mole from day 1 and almost kills him herself, only to have a change of heart at the last second and hold the line for Jimmy and Priscilla to escape, getting captured in the process. Chapter 24: Judy finally meets Reynard face-to-face, the fox changes his focus from killing just the crime lords to also targeting the ZPD, and Marian wakes up from her coma. Meanwhile, Simon goes on a personal crusade to find his kidnapped son by directly assaulting the ZPD. Drabble 5: Nick has an adoptive sister, whom Reynard left in charge of his operations in Foxden. Chapter 27: Carla is revealed to be trapped in an Immoral Reality Show for Lucy's entertainment, one taking place in the thus-far unrepresented Nocturnal District. On top of that, there used to be six crime lords, including Vladzotz Fangpyre from When Instinct Falls. Drabble 10: For the first time, all of the Zootopian crime lords (and their predecessors) are seen meeting and interacting with each other, including Vladzotz. Halfway through, it suddenly turns into John Wilde's Start of Darkness and we see the event that made him detest the crime lords firsthand. It also one-ups Chapter 27 by implying that there may have actually been seven crime lords at some point. Chapter 29: Kyle VanDal's fate is finally revealed when he shows up in the Belfry. Reynard explains more of his backstory, namely his first ever victims: The Junior Ranger Scouts. Chapter 33: One month has passed, Nick's birthday is tomorrow, the six other ZPD precinct chiefs are all introduced at once, Nick forms a massive combined force of cops and criminals to take down Reynard once and for all, the HB Project is finally revealed, and then another secret project is hinted at directly afterwards. All of which is just the intermission for the Grand Finale. Drabble 20: One of the biggest whams yet. It's finally revealed how Simon lost his leg, which involved his house being blown up by a sleeper agent from the Sauriet Union. And there is an unknown number of other such agents planted all throughout Zootopia, who can easily be just about any of the numerous characters introduced thus far, with no indication of where or when they'll strike. Narwhalter's paranoia starts to make a lot of sense. Chapter 38: After a lengthy battle, Count Reynard is finally defeated for good. Soon after, Nick starts getting a suspicious amount of attention from the general public and it's revealed that the events inside Wilde Times were secretly being broadcast all across the city. Then a flashback shows that not only did Reynard plan this exact outcome to turn Nick into Zootopia's "Hero Fox", he'd been planning it since before the Narwhalter arc. So much for not taking a hint.

Mood Whiplash: Frequently. One scene can be dramatic and serious while the next is lighthearted goofiness, sometimes switching back and forth multiple times per chapter. Chapter 21 is probably the biggest offender, and lampshaded as such.

Motive Misidentification
 Born to Be Wilde (Fanfic) / int_aa3d3d1a
comment
Motive Misidentification: In Chapter 10, Nick comes to the conclusion that the Count has a serious vendetta against him, which is why he refuses to let anyone else kill him. He's entirely correct about the villain's fixation on him, but not the context. In Chapter 25, Nick makes another deduction that Karen VanDal deliberately acted as suspiciously as possible while "interrogating" him, causing them to look into her history and discover her connection to Simon, luring them out of the precinct while Simon himself moves in to take the place hostage with less resistance. Again, he's half-right, except that Karen was just trying to get Simon arrested and the whole hostage situation was just as unexpected to her.

Dramatic Irony
 Born to Be Wilde (Fanfic) / int_ab5eea65
comment
Dramatic Irony: In Chapter 11, Judy's team gets into a car accident with another vehicle and they are run off the road. None of them know what the other vehicle was, but the description heavily implies it to be the Count's limousine. Later confirmed when said limo shows up again with a huge dent in its side. At the beginning of Chapter 32, Nick gets an important piece of information from Narwhalter, to be passed on to the VanDals. But by the time they head back to the precinct, the VanDals are already gone. Meanwhile, they are shown to be looking for an important piece of information that Narwhalter had, while ignoring a call from the ZPD that they assume is pointless. Born to Be Drabbles, by virtue of consisting mainly of scenes taking place before the main story, uses this extensively.

El Orgullo, Sandcat's bodyguard, is also a luchador, and the Sandcat arc climaxes a wrestling match between Hyenandez and El Orgullo, with Priscilla and Lucy Sang joining in.

April Fools' Day: Subverted. Chapter 27 was released on April Fools' 2019 as an actual update in a ploy of Reverse Psychology. The actual joke was Berserker88 spending the day roleplaying as Reynard on the ZNN Community Discord server under the name "CrazyFoxGuy33". This was repeated on April Fools' 2020. The Discord part anyway. This time Berserker88 played Jimmy Frost ("DatFrostyBoi") while Mind Jack later joined as Carla Hyenandez ("LaMalaPerra"). The resulting fourth wall-breaking shenanigans took place across both the ZNN server and the ZAA (Zootopia Author's Association) server. Archived here. Happened again on April Fools' 2021. Berserker88 played Vexey Wilde ("4EverVexed") and Jack played Lucy Sang ("LucyYouLater") within the ZAA Discord server. Archived in a cleaner fashion here.

Great Offscreen War

Great Offscreen War: The Cold-Blooded War, for the most part. One of Simon's missions during it is shown, but there is little actual "war" there.

Running Gag
 Born to Be Wilde (Fanfic) / int_f9f2c33
comment
Running Gag: Too many to list, but some of the most prominent are: Judy's "sweet cheese and crackers" becoming a Mad Libs Catch Phrase. Nick never being able to live down his Outside Ride in Chapter 2. Jimmy's back and forth banter with his own plushie. Carla having No Sense of Humor, and especially her Entendre Failure. The many appearances of crazy like a fox. Junior's similes. Sandcat Sanchez abruptly bursting into song. Danielle attempting to swear around Marian.

Theme Naming
 Born to Be Wilde (Fanfic) / int_fd94c4ac
comment
Theme Naming: The Count uses card names as aliases for himself and all of his minions. The Count — Wilde Card (unpredictable and above the others as well as a pun on his surname). Simon VanDal — Ace of Spades (an elite mercenary, i.e. The Ace of the team. As a bonus, the Ace of Spades is also known as the "death card"). Harvey Montapue — Jack of Hearts (a bit of a soft-hearted jackass). Koslov — King of Clubs (the physically most intimidating member, who gives his enemies a clubbing, i.e. beating). Lucy Sang — Queen of Diamonds (the most feminine member of the team and a known jewel thief). Carla Hyenandez — Joker (a bit of an outsider, not part of the core team and also a hyena, known for its laughs). Finnick — Two of Clubs (a jab at his short stature and violent temper). The team of assassins the Count hires become known as the Discards, in reference to them all being rejected from the other crime gangs for various reasons.

Brick Joke: During the nightclub brawl in Chapter 8, one of the naturalists records Judy and Lucy wrestling in the punch bowl and says he's going to put it on ZooTube. Two chapters later, it's revealed that he not only did just that, but it's gone viral. After his first encounter with Officer Swinton that involved locking her out of her own visitor's room, Nick off-handly mentions sending her a gift basket to make up for it. Over ten chapters later, we see the result of that gift. It was full of oat bars, which Swinton is allergic to, but ate anyway because "[she's] a pig". Needless to say, her opinion of Nick has not improved. In Chapter 26, the Count tells Finnick to be sure to spellcheck something the wolves are working on. In Chapter 33, this something is revealed to be the sign for Wilde Times, or rather "Wild Times". Reynard promptly calls Finnick out for failing to spellcheck. In Chapter 26, Jimmy asks if they can call in a tank to deal with the hostage situation at the ZPD. Bogo tells him they don't have time for that and Nick points out that this implies he could get a tank. Almost ten chapters later, Bogo proves that, yes, he could.

Shifting Situation Duel
 Born to Be Wilde (Fanfic) / int_fe3b711
comment
Shifting Situation Duel: A couple, such as the fight between Judy and Simon that ends up spanning several rooms of the Precinct 1 building, and the fight on the Sea Train, with said train moving like a roller coaster and occasionally shifting the gravity on those inside. The former gets a lampshading.

Talking Is a Free Action
 Born to Be Wilde (Fanfic) / int_ff5a74c8
comment
Talking Is a Free Action: Usually played straight, but averted twice in quick succession during the Belfry sub-arc. The first time, Carla is caught up in a moral dilemma of if she should save Harvey from imminent peril or escape herself. By the time she decides to save him, Lucy points out that he's still been in danger that whole time and could've well died in the interim. In the following (timed) challenge, Carla, Harvey, and Kyle have a small chat with each other at the outset...until Lucy reveals that the challenge has already started and they've just wasted three minutes talking.
