comment
Inheritance is a fanfiction of Worm by Pendragoon and Firstselector.On Taylor's first night out, she stumbles across a fight between Lung, leader of the ABB, and Quarrel, Butcher XIV.Interrupting their fight leaves both Lung and Quarrel unexpectedly dead, and Taylor as the newly-minted Butcher XV, with the screaming voices of her fourteen predecessors constantly hounding her and trying to drive her to evil and/or insanity. Thankfully, Taylor's bug-control power is uniquely suited to dealing with the situation, her infinite multitasking allowing her to selectively ignore them.Taylor refuses to let this setback derail her plans to become a hero, but the PRT isn't buying that her continued sanity is anything more than temporary, and see this as an opportunity to rid themselves of the Butcher for good...The fic is ongoing and has had has plenty of Omakes.Can also be found on Archive of Our Own (here) and on Questionable Questing (here).

Success as Revenge: Part of what sends Taylor back to her dad, instead of living with the Teeth full time, is knowing that the heroes don't believe she's capable of staying sane and living a normal life — and after what they pulled, she doesn't want to let them win.

comment
Heel–Face Door-Slam: If Butcher can't be a Hero without getting thrown in the Birdcage, then the Butcher can at least be an ethical villain. Madison attempts to apologize to Taylor for all the shit she put the latter through when she learns Taylor's joined the Teeth, feeling responsible and ashamed. Not only does Taylor refuse to forgive her, but she also goes so far as to reveal herself as Butcher XV just to prove how massively Madison fucked up. Ultimately, downplayed in a sense. Taylor lets Madison moonlight with the Teeth while taking down the E88 and continue to hang out after that job is done.

Gone Horribly Right: All of Emma's actions and part in the bullying campaign was so she could give Taylor some Tough Love and stop being such a doormat, possibly even getting her to Trigger and join her in crimefighting. She's initially elated when her former friend stands up for herself and fights back, only to later react in horror when she learns Taylor is Weaver AKA Butcher XV. The revelation hits her so badly she ends up going through a Second Trigger Event.

A Lighter Shade of Black: The Teeth under Taylor are still a gang of violent murderers and drug dealers, but they're better than the Empire 88, who are all neo-nazis, and the ABB who kidnap women off the street and sell them into sexual slavery. They're also the only ones actively enforcing the unwritten rules about not using a Cape's secret identity against them.

comment
Papa Wolf: Danny's less than enthusiastic about Taylor joining the Teeth, but admits it would be horrendously hypocritical of him to censure her for doing so, remembering Annette's own association with Lustrum. That said, his acceptance entirely depends on knowing Taylor is only wearing the colors for protection and not being ordered to actually join in the gang's nastier activities, and makes it clear to Chrissie that if that changes, he's marching to the Butcher and having words. Chrissie and Taylor, aka Vex and the Butcher, are both immediately cowed into keeping up the charade.

Cruel and Unusual Death: When Taylor's grudge against Max Anders/Kaiser becomes personal, she proceeds to out him on public TV, pain-blast him, rot his face off, throw him through a window onto a flagpole, and then have her bugs eat him down to the bone, after which she takes his skull as a Battle Trophy. And the next person who tries to break the rules and target family, she promises, will envy him.

comment
Mistaken Identity: The first chapter of Arc 3 has Amy ask which one of the Butchers is her father, going by Carol's unwillingness to speak of him and worry about how the Butchers have taken an interest in her. This leaves Taylor and the Butchers in Stunned Silence whereas Lisa is cackling her ass off at the misconception. Danny knows Taylor is a parahuman who has recently joined the Teeth. He thinks she's Omen, and even asks for information on the Wards hoping to convince her to leave the gang.

The Dreaded
 Inheritance (Worm) (Fanfic) / int_2ae29c0d
comment
The Dreaded: Weaver more than any previous Butcher is feared for being smart, vicious, and sane, the last of which no other Butcher was. Even before she becomes willing to kill anyone, she still does things like having one of Menja's legs devoured by her swarm down to the bone. Then she later attacks Kaiser on national television after revealing his identity, beating him, throwing him out a window to be impaled on a flagpole, and eating him alive with her swarm. Afterwards, pretty much anyone who isn't associated with the Teeth goes from fearing Weaver to being outright terrified of her.

Bring My Brown Pants: Taylor's first intervention to stop Teeth members bullying someone at Winslow results in one of the bullies filling his pants. Sabertooth finds it hilarious and wants to make the other do the same, but Taylor points out that that doesn't mix well with Super-Senses. Greg Veder makes the mistake of thinking he can convince Taylor to leave the Teeth and that Weaver's claim that she's always watching is a bluff. He pisses his pants when Taylor "summons" Weaver.

Adaptational Sexuality: Inevitable given that previous Butchers are often male or LGBTQ+. Taylor's eventual girlfriend is Chrissy, also known as the Teeth lieutenant Vex. Also Lisa. In canon she's asexual and aromantic. Here she ends up in a relationship with Amy, though the author has confirmed that it's closer to If It's You, It's Okay on the romantic side and she's still asexual.

Browbeat is a minor case. In addition to being able to change her physique on the fly, she can even change her appearance. Her Changer ability is also apparently much greater than in canon as well, as Madison is able to take on monstrous appearances, including one that resembles an honest-to-god Xenomorph. They have to sandbag when with the Wards, but when with the Teeth and don't need to hold back, their skills frighten some of the Butchers.

False Flag Operation
 Inheritance (Worm) (Fanfic) / int_2dddd99d
comment
False Flag Operation: Chrissie loudly talks about a rumour that the Empire 88 brought bags of bugs to school to give the Teeth a bad name. In reality, of course, the bug attacks really are coming from the Teeth, specifically from Weaver (and anyone else bringing in bugs from outside would be pointless, since they would all become hers). The Empire later really does try to frame the Teeth, by massacring dozens of civilians in a place that the Teeth were about to attack, then anonymously calling the PRT to claim that the Teeth kidnapped Panacea.

Hero with Bad Publicity: Taylor gets hit with this hard as Weaver. She's doing her best to live with the burden of being Butcher XV and has to deal with Teeth-Clenched Teamwork with some of the more difficult heroes such as Brandish, who is the first to demand that the PRT lock her in a cage cell. She did have some fans at first... until Piggot tried to have her Birdcaged. After that, everyone was convinced Taylor was just as crazy as her predecessors, though this opinion seems to have lessened some as of Arc 3.

 Inheritance (Worm) (Fanfic) / int_319e4a2f
comment
Even Evil Has Standards: While previous Butchers are monsters and villains down to the bone, even they feel the Locker Incident was too much. Trigger Events are never a laughing matter, even among villains. One of the rules they've always imposed among the Teeth is "don't attack children". Several of the Butchers also consider sexual slavery one of their Berserk Buttons, and one of Taylor's first heroic actions is to bring down the ABB's brothels. Both they and the Teeth are similarly not happy with the PRT's (specifically Piggot's) unprovoked attempts to lock Taylor in the Birdcage. The Butchers aren't keen on the idea of stealing from a music shop or anyone or anyplace that has Warhammer miniatures. Some advocate supporting music shops because they struggle as it is, but this is less because it's the "right thing to do" and having standards and more because, as they put it: Whatever the Elite cape Sovereign has done, it's bad enough that pretty much everyone in the Teeth is disgusted with the guy and has no problem in either killing him or let Regent use him for experimentation.

 Inheritance (Worm) (Fanfic) / int_3496b29a
comment
Heart Is an Awesome Power: Ironsides' initial reaction to Taylor's bug control is "She'll get offed in no time," but they soon learn better. Even beyond the various uses Taylor has for her swarms, the Butchers all admit her ability to focus on dozens of different tasks at once is remarkably useful, especially when she's commanding the Teeth in battle. It also has synergy with several other powers, such as feeding reconnaissance data into Stratego's planning, or providing targeting for Pyro's teleports, and in turn, the pain nullification power reduces the headaches that she gets for sharing her swarm's senses.

Flipping the Bird: While the Wards become increasingly frantic about Weaver's presence in the building, Amy manages to persuade herself that there is probably no direct danger. So when Weaver teleports into the room and raises a phone camera, Amy has just enough time to raise her middle finger before the flash goes off. PHO is quite impressed by her audacity.

Ascended Meme: A common element of several omakes was that the Butchers were into Warhammer 40,000 due to its ridiculous over-the-top violence. Taylor's PHO AMA revealed that the first Butcher and Sanguine did play an unnamed tabletop game with expensive miniatures. Another common omake element was the idea of one of the Butcher being one of Amy's unknown (to her) biological parents. In chapter 3.2, Amy ends up asking the members of the Teeth which of the Butchers was her parent, having come to the conclusion after her adoptive mother Carol refused to elaborate after worrying a sane Butcher would go after Amy for her parentage.

Cut His Heart Out with a Spoon: When someone on PHO speculates about the likelihood of Weaver raiding an ABB brothel and kidnapping the girls for the Teeth, Vex ridicules the idea by pointing out that several Butchers have been female and wouldn't take kindly to any such thing. A hungover Amy threatens that if anyone touches her coffee, she will turn them inside out.

Big Fancy Sword: The Butcher's ten-foot-long sword (or rather, Sword) is so heavy that their full strength, including Knockout's force fields, is needed to wield it. Thanks to Damascian's Tinkering, it's also sharp enough to cut through reinforced concrete in a single swing. Quarrel wasn't impressed by it, preferring her power to fight at range, but most of the Butchers love it.

All Your Powers Combined: A staple of the Butcher. However, having Taylor as the Butcher's host massively increases their abilities, as Queen Administrator can integrate the different powers into a more cohesive and deadly skillset, even before taking into account the ability to No-Sell the main downside of the Butcher by allowing her to separate the different Butchers' minds (helping stabilize the gestalt) and selectively divide her attention between them, giving her additional insight into each's powers and memories without the risk of being overloaded like the others before her. While every now and then Taylor finds someone whose powers interest the other Butchers, they conclude that no matter how tempting adding flashier powersets to the collective might be, it's not worth it if it means losing or even diminishing Taylor's integration and administration abilities.

Villain Respect: Even before Taylor returns to the Teeth, Stratego encourages her not to throw her life away, because he appreciates how effective she has been and doesn't want "another meathead or bloodlust driven neanderthal" as Butcher XVI. Robbie respects Dinah more for nearly killing him in her effort to kill Coil because it shows a "proper Teeth attitude". Hookwolf offers some respect to Danny, including quietly sharing his real name, for being willing to face him in a Duel to the Death to spare his men's lives.

Easier Than Easy: Usually becoming the Butcher involves slowly going insane by having over a dozen screaming voices in your head, driving you mad until you become just as depraved as your predecessors. But Taylor can just shrug off their voices as easily as most people breathe by pushing them into her bugs. Thus, the Butcher's many powers come without any of the usual downsides (other than her current cape ID being known as the latest Butcher).

Crack is Cheaper: Taylor's opinion on starting her own Warhammer habit. In a bit of Hypocritical Humor, she later visits a bookstore that offers a first edition autographed set of the Song of the Lioness books. While she agonizes over whether or not to blow $1400 on books that are meant more to be admired than read, Sabertooth comments he wasted more money on a single hit of coke. In the end, Chrissie buys her the set.

Achievements in Ignorance: Gaining the Butcher's instincts changes Taylor's posture, making her stand taller and walk more confidently, but it draws attention she doesn't want at school, so she makes an effort to regain her old hunched-over trying-not-to-be-noticed gait. Which inadvertently results in her looking like she's scared and trying to act tough — a perfect cover for actually being the Butcher.

Deconstructed when Director Piggot decides that sending Weaver to the Birdcage, despite her heroic desires, is a regrettable necessity to take any future Butchers off the board. Not only does it traumatize those involved and damage the morale of her capes, including twelve-year-old Vista. Not only does it undermine the trust between heroes and villains that enables Enemy Mine cooperation like the Endbringer Truce. Not only does it fail and alienate Taylor from the PRT, pushing her into the arms of the gang that she knows will have her back. In a canonized omake, Assault points out that even if it had succeeded, the likely end result would be a string of new Butchers within the Birdcage followed by an escape attempt that could potentially pass the mantle to Dragon. It's a major factor in Director Piggot being politely fired once the Triumvirate gets involved.

Pragmatic Villainy: Taylor's approach to leading the Teeth is to not be assholes, specifically not running around their own territory killing people and destroying businesses. If all the stuff in their territory is broken and nobody lives there, they're not going to make any money off selling drugs and protection rackets. The Butchers consider music stores and game shops off-limits because that's where they go to relax when not killing people.

Distress Call: Once Weaver has established herself at Winslow, she starts crafting origami squares with bugs trapped inside them, and attaching them to necklaces that she hands out to the Teeth recruits. Crushing the bug is a signal for Weaver to intervene. Naturally, Sophia is the first "volunteer" to test it, promptly getting stung on the nose by a wasp. With Amy in a stressful and volatile situation, Taylor lands two bugs on her leg, under a table and out of sight, one of them a particularly vicious wasp, and the other a fuzzy moth. Amy recognises the offer immediately and pats the moth — but doesn't allow the wasp to leave, either.

Badass Normal: Big Robbie has been a member of the Teeth since the first Butcher and is considered an absolute badass by the entire gang despite having no powers. New Butchers have to earn his respect, not the other way around. He demonstrates why this is the case when, using just a Tinkertech meat cleaver, he singlehandedly takes down Trainwreck. Big Robbie's status as a Badass Normal has led some SpaceBattles.com readers to speculate that he could take on Jack Slash and win. He's later revealed to have fought him to a draw and managed to leave a scar on Jack. To a comparatively lesser extent, Danny. Two examples stand out: him managing to (unknowingly) scare Vex and Weaver into submission with just words, and him standing up to Hookwolf for his employees and daring to punch Hookwolf in the jaw.

Forgot About His Powers: When Taylor's arm is trapped under a sleeping Vex, stopping her from reaching her phone, it takes a reminder from Sanguine that she can just have her bugs retrieve it. Taylor wants to facepalm upon realising that, but her arm is still trapped.

Gargle Blaster: Talisker Super Reserve is a glowing Tinkertech whiskey brewed in Scotland and only barely legal there. Most alcohol can barely make a Butcher tipsy, but this stuff is so powerful it can get them outright wasted. The only reason normal people can drink it safely is that the Tinker's ability prevents outright alcohol poisoning.

Decoy Getaway: Weaver's intervention at Winslow leads to the PRT coming and fumigating the place — but Taylor is on site before they get started, and divides up her bugs, moving the really dangerous and valuable ones away while letting the more generic species be easily found (thus lowering the fumigators' suspicions).

Once Done, Never Forgotten: A lot of people "know" that the Butcher and the teeth are cannibals. In reality, only Marauder ever ate anyone and he was high on bath salts at the time. (It doesn't help that Taylor's bugs are seen to eat Menja's leg down to the bone.) The past Butchers will never stop needling Sabertooth about trying to hire Jack Slash. Even after one of them literally killed him for doing it, they're not letting it go.

Adaptational Badass: Taylor accidentally kills Quarrel during her confrontation with Lung, saddling her with fourteen voices and additional power sets. Browbeat is a minor case. In addition to being able to change her physique on the fly, she can even change her appearance. Her Changer ability is also apparently much greater than in canon as well, as Madison is able to take on monstrous appearances, including one that resembles an honest-to-god Xenomorph. They have to sandbag when with the Wards, but when with the Teeth and don't need to hold back, their skills frighten some of the Butchers. Emma not only is a ward with fire powers by the name of Meteor when she remained a normal human in canon, realising Taylor not only triggered in the locker, but then went on to become Weaver and Butcher XV makes her undergo a Second Trigger.

No One Gets Left Behind: Taylor expresses this sentiment to Big Robbie after Dinah's use of a grenade to murder Coil, which Taylor had to put her power between Robbie and the explosion to protect him. When the heroes confront Taylor at home, they initially refuse to leave without Amy and Dinah. Unfortunately for them, neither is interested in leaving, and to add insult to injury, they themselves are left behind by the retreating PRT troopers. (Vex slashing their tyres doesn't help.)

Black-and-White Morality: As per usual, Carol and her children refuse to acknowledge that a villain can be decent or reform, though Amy slowly starts to break out of this mindset when she realizes that Taylor is sane and is slowly turning the Teeth into Friendly Neighborhood Gangsters. Vicky starts breaking out of the mentality herself after meeting Taylor with the latter unmasked (realizing that the villain was a shy, bullied nerd) and drunkenly making out with Damsel of Distress (she wasn't aware that the other woman was a villain at the time, however), going as far to start calling her sister Amelia.

Nice Job Breaking It, Hero!

comment
Nice Job Breaking It, Hero: Violating truce and almost Birdcaging the Butcher gives the Teeth a vengeful and competent leader. As far as Taylor and the Teeth are concerned, it's Nice Job Fixing It, Villain instead. In addition to Shadow Stalker, who is an Anti-Hero at best, Madison and Emma are the Wards Browbeat and Meteor respectively, and all three had a hand in Taylor's Trigger Event, and therefore indirectly responsible for her becoming Butcher XV. The revelation hits Emma so hard she goes through a Second Trigger. Brandish and Myrddin contrive to have Vicky and Amelia join the Chicago Wards, in order to keep them away from the Teeth, with the added implication that Carol wants Vicky to return with Dean. This angers both girls so much that they choose to openly join the Teeth.

Actually Pretty Funny: Taylor is willing to acknowledge that one of the Trio's taunts is actually worth a snicker. With the crowd in her head backing her, she's much less bothered by the insults and able to see the funny side. Chrissie gets shot in the gut and Taylor is naturally worried, but then Chrissie complains (in an 'I'm going to die' tone) that the injury won't even leave a scar. The Butchers (and even Amy) think it's hilarious.

Open Secret: Within a month, everyone who matters in Brockton Bay is fully aware Taylor Hebert is Weaver aka Butcher XV, and in many cases she deliberately informed them. They're also aware that she'll brutally murder anyone who violates the unwritten rules. Since the heroes would much rather have her spending time peacefully at school, than leading the Teeth full time with a grudge, they stay hands-off.

Didn't Think This Through: The very first lines of the fic are Taylor deciding she didn't plan out enough before getting in over her head. Piggot, twofold. She tries to have Weaver put in the Birdcage, citing that if she really is in full control of herself, she presents a unique opportunity in nipping a huge problem in the bud. Not only does she fail to take into account how Weaver herself might feel or that, no, she would definitely not want to spend the rest of her life inside The Alcatraz, but Ethan also points out how utterly stupid the plan was, citing that if Weaver died in the Birdcage, any of the inmates would become Butcher XVI, up to and including DRAGON, who is in charge of the prison. She effectively throws away one of the strongest Ward candidates in recent history out of paranoia, when just letting Taylor do her thing as a hero cape could have kept the Butcher problem off of the board for her entire lifespan.

Sarcastic Confession: After Amy and Lisa have a long talk about Amy's history and issues, and Amy crashes at the Teeth HQ overnight, Carol calls in the morning to find out where she is. Lisa answers and pretends that Amy spent the night with her for other reasons, but Carol is still unsatisfied, pointing out that for all knew, the Butcher could have kidnapped Amy, so Amy snarkily tells her the truth.

The first chapter of Arc 3 has Amy ask which one of the Butchers is her father, going by Carol's unwillingness to speak of him and worry about how the Butchers have taken an interest in her. This leaves Taylor and the Butchers in Stunned Silence whereas Lisa is cackling her ass off at the misconception.

It's Personal: Taylor's hatred of Director Piggot, Protectorate ENE and New Wave after her near-Birdcage experience, the former for trying to have her sent to the Birdcage despite doing her best to be a hero and Carol Dallon for being so insistent that she be arrested on the grounds that she can't be a hero since she is the Butcher. When Dinah Alcott is rescued from Coil, she almost promptly murders him with a grenade attack, complete with a Pre Ass Kicking One Liner, then explains she had to kill him to prevent him from hurting her again. Kaiser sends Hookwolf and Cricket to attack the Dockworkers Union, after figuring that Taylor is part of the Teeth. Taylor returns the favor by destroying the Empire 88.

Slowly Slipping Into Evil: Not exactly Evil if Taylor has anything to say about it, but Panacea has started preferring working with the Teeth rather than New Wave, up to outright giving the Teeth members permission to rough up New Wave members, since she can just heal them afterwards. It doesn't help that Miss Militia ends up shooting her by accident when the PRT forces approach the Hebert house.

Taylor's reaction to Quarrel dying.

 Inheritance (Worm) (Fanfic) / int_a7e47a11
comment
Your Approval Fills Me with Shame: If all the Butchers are congratulating Taylor, there's a good chance she's upset with herself for slipping closer to their level of violence. At one point, when she realises that she's leading the Teeth even without the Chorus' direct input in a way that Butcher says he's proud of, she wants to throw up. Shadow Stalker is actually complimentary, in a very backhanded way, about Taylor's initial takedowns of the ABB (which were effective but rather violent). Neither Taylor nor even the Butchers are pleased, to the point where the Butchers suggest remaining a hero just to spite her. Emma is disturbed when told that the Locker Incident would make her a good member of the Teeth. She later reflects that it was the closest the Teeth ever came to breaking her since her implied Trigger Event. Panacea is clearly disturbed when the Butcher shows her sympathy and lets her go. Missy reacts similarly when Butcher gives her a compliment.

Oh, Crap!: There's plenty of moments where either the villains or heroes shit a brick or two, but some of the most poignant ones are: Taylor's reaction to Quarrel dying. While Lung was also involved in the fight that cost the Butcher her life, Taylor had a hand in it, and is therefore one of the two candidates — and with Lung dying at the same time, she knows what's going to happen. She has the enviable honor of becoming Butcher XV. The PRT attempting to Birdcage Taylor causes the poor girl to faint in the midst of a panic attack, and when she recovers, she quickly bolts the hell out of there. The Undersiders' bank robbery goes awry when Weaver unexpectedly shows up and hijacks the heist. While Lisa is terrified out of her mind, Amy has it the worst when Weaver lets her and the rest of the hostages go. An enraged Panacea realizes the Wards Meteor, Browbeat and Shadow Stalker are responsible for Triggering Weaver. Furious, she flatly refuses to ever heal them again. A Running Gag in several Omakes is one or more Butchers having been a fan of Warhammer 40,000 and Taylor and the other Teeth taking up the hobby, up to and including hosting tournaments. It ended up becoming an Ascended Meme in Taylor's PHO AMA when Taylor reveals the first Butcher and Sanguine played an unnamed tabletop game with expensive miniatures. Yep, that's right; The Butcher is hosting a game tournament.

Sanity Has Advantages: As Vex notes, the Butcher XIV was nearly feral to the point of being unable to string complete sentences. Taylor, as Butcher XV, proves to be far more dangerous than her predecessors by being able to combine her own bug control with everyone else's powers to maximum effect, and furthermore, being able to plan and co-ordinate with the Teeth.

I Did What I Had to Do: Deconstructed when Director Piggot decides that sending Weaver to the Birdcage, despite her heroic desires, is a regrettable necessity to take any future Butchers off the board. Not only does it traumatize those involved and damage the morale of her capes, including twelve-year-old Vista. Not only does it undermine the trust between heroes and villains that enables Enemy Mine cooperation like the Endbringer Truce. Not only does it fail and alienate Taylor from the PRT, pushing her into the arms of the gang that she knows will have her back. In a canonized omake, Assault points out that even if it had succeeded, the likely end result would be a string of new Butchers within the Birdcage followed by an escape attempt that could potentially pass the mantle to Dragon. It's a major factor in Director Piggot being politely fired once the Triumvirate gets involved. Played straight for Taylor (as is typical for Taylor). She eventually accepts being the Butcher, leading the Teeth, and plotting to take over Brockton Bay, rather than the alternatives.

Everyone Has Standards: Very few of the heroes are happy with Piggot after her bull-headed decision to try and lock up Weaver in the Birdcage. Armsmaster begrudgingly goes along with it, but he laments that the PRT didn't give Weaver enough time to prove them wrong and that she is a legitimate hero in full control of herself whereas Assault lambasts them and points out how stupid they were. Giving someone a hard time over their Trigger Event is considered a major faux pas among capes with "Trigger Trauma" being reason enough to immediately drop any subject. Continuing to pry past that is usually the quickest way to the hospital or a grave.

Piggot, twofold. She tries to have Weaver put in the Birdcage, citing that if she really is in full control of herself, she presents a unique opportunity in nipping a huge problem in the bud. Not only does she fail to take into account how Weaver herself might feel or that, no, she would definitely not want to spend the rest of her life inside The Alcatraz, but Ethan also points out how utterly stupid the plan was, citing that if Weaver died in the Birdcage, any of the inmates would become Butcher XVI, up to and including DRAGON, who is in charge of the prison. She effectively throws away one of the strongest Ward candidates in recent history out of paranoia, when just letting Taylor do her thing as a hero cape could have kept the Butcher problem off of the board for her entire lifespan.

She's talking about Amy asking her questions regarding her father, though Amy's embarrassment with the misconception that they were up all night doing something raunchier amuses her.

Curb Stomp Cushion: Danny versus Hookwolf. One is a reasonably in shape man in his late 30s while the other is filled with metal and can turn into a giant wolf made of blades. The former only gets in a single punch because his opponent lets him make the first move.

Shout-Out
 Inheritance (Worm) (Fanfic) / int_c75df49a
comment
Shout-Out: Taylor, Chrissie, Lisa and Dinah watch Blazing Saddles during a girls' night. Taylor splashes blood in an Empire goon's face, and Marauder starts singing, "Blood on your face, you big disgrace!" and the chorus takes up the song as she continues the beatdown. To show off for her minions in the aftermath, Taylor shouts "Crucio!" before unleashing a pain blast on the downed goons. The suggestion of Taylor building a skull throne immediately prompts internal cries of "Blood for the blood god! Skulls for the skull throne!" Taylor is thrilled to discover a first-edition signed set of the Song of the Lioness books. The price tag is more than she feels she can justify, but upon hearing her gush about them, Chrissie promptly buys them for her. Taylor addresses a group of recent recruits with, "So, it has come to my attention that I don't know half of you half as well as I should like." Victoria protests, "That's not true!" and the chorus immediately chimes in with "That's impossible!" "Search your heart, you know-!" "I am your fa-" Chrissy won't answer Lisa's questions about her nap, unless Lisa can confirm that Pandemic is not currently on her lap. In Missy's interlude, she describes turning to the Butcher as "The Weaver Option". Before the meeting with the Elite representatives, Damascian paraphrases Obi-Wan by saying "the negotiations should be short". When Taylor sees through Aisha's power, they mirror dialogue from the third episode of Hellsing Ultimate Abridged. Aisha complains, "that just ain’t fair at all," to which Taylor replies, "I’m sorry, we don’t give a fuck." In fact, many lines from the series pop up from time to time, mostly as commentary from the Butcher Choir.

Dude, Not Funny!: At one point, Taylor asks Reflex, the only hero to inherit the Butcher mantle, for his opinion on dealing with Kaiser. When he agrees it's the best course of action, the original Butcher finds it funny enough to say "Sound the Endbringer sirens!". At least six others immediately tell him not to joke about that.

Refuge in Audacity
 Inheritance (Worm) (Fanfic) / int_d45c0b86
comment
Refuge in Audacity: Taylor's plan to continue living her civilian life even after taking over the Teeth relies on a mixture of the idea of the Butcher going to school being so ridiculous the PRT will hesitate to break the Unwritten Rules, and later, the certainty that if they do break the Rules, they will regret it. This even extends to the PHO interlude, where she gives out some small details about her civilian life, but not enough for anyone who doesn't know her very well to make a solid connection. She also decides to wear a hoodie with her last name and XV on the back. Chrissie suggests to start selling hoodies saying "Future Butcher XVI". And then offer all the "civilians" at her house hoodies with their villain personas on them as a gift after the recruitment attempt. Big Robbie initially joined the Teeth because he "wanted to fuck the Butcher". While Butcher didn't swing that way, he respected the man's audacity enough to make him one of the Teeth.

Screw This, I'm Outta Here: After recovering from her panic attack-induced faint, Taylor immediately books it out of the PRT's grasp before they can lock her in the Birdcage. Taylor, while still in civilian clothes and with her identity not well known, sees a blonde haired girl at the Boardwalk, who glances at her, then goes into a wide eyed panic and runs away. Much later, they meet in costume; the blonde was Tattletale, whose power worked out who she was looking at and freaked her out. Rather than stay and maybe wait for an opportunity to incapacitate Weaver, Amy leaves the bank along with the rest of the hostages. After seeing Dinah execute Coil with a grenade, Grue leaves the Teeth for the PRT.

Reasonable Authority Figure: Two major examples: Taylor compared to the prior Butchers. Armsmaster on the hero side: He was opposed to the Birdcage attempt, but subverted in that ultimately went along with it. After that though, he's aware of who is behind the mask of the Butcher but is quite clear about leaving her alone unless she's actually masked up. He breaks up the recruitment attempt and manages to get things calmed down without further injury.

Screw the Rules, They Broke Them First!: The conflict between the Teeth and the Empire starts out with the Teeth raiding Empire assets and Taylor limiting her involvement to deliberately non-lethal maiming. When Cricket and Hookwolf nearly kill her father Taylor decides that the Unwritten Rules have been very clearly breached. She then goes on a very lethal campaign against the Empire's capes and kills most of the remaining ones within a day, even killing Kaiser live on TV and warning others that his fate is the direct consequence of this trope.

Exact Words: During a PHO Q&A session, Weaver mentions that she "always wanted to be Alexandria". Someone else asks if she meant she wanted to be like Alexandria, only for the others to realize it's the Butcher speaking and that they wanted to be killed by Alexandria in order to take her over. Danny asks Taylor to answer him honestly, no wordplay, about her association with the Teeth, and she admits to joining, but she still resorts to a technical-truth when she tells him that they haven't given her a single order.

Incredibly Lame Pun: Alec drops one so bad that the Chorus suggests killing him, and Taylor threatens him with the Wards.

Easily Forgiven: Vex is among the most enthusiastic of the Teeth to welcome the new Butcher's return, but she also quickly realises that she let Taylor's bullying happen and stepped back, which now haunts her. Taylor doesn't hold it against her, though; Vex is loyal to her now, and that's what she cares about.

Killed By The Adaptation: The Merchants were wiped out by the Teeth before the start of the story, with Skidmark notably being blended by Vex's razor fields and putting an end to the gang.

Running Gag

comment
A Running Gag in several Omakes is one or more Butchers having been a fan of Warhammer 40,000 and Taylor and the other Teeth taking up the hobby, up to and including hosting tournaments. It ended up becoming an Ascended Meme in Taylor's PHO AMA when Taylor reveals the first Butcher and Sanguine played an unnamed tabletop game with expensive miniatures. Yep, that's right; The Butcher is hosting a game tournament.

The Dog Bites Back: Coil's recruitment of Lisa with threats and intimidation eventually results in her selling him out to Weaver. Weaver later makes it clear that she has no intention of compelling anyone to work for her, since she doesn't want a repeat occurrence.
