The town of Dirt has prospered after it gained a permanent water source that created a lake next to it. Now it is called Mud, with Rango as the well-respected sheriff.The peace of Mud is disturbed when the citizens are attacked by mercenaries for unknown reasons. Hearing from the mercenaries that they're looking for a snake, Rango recalls Rattlesnake Jake. He seeks Jake out and hires the outlaw to keep Mud safe from the mercenaries. Having been lately between jobs, Jake accepts the deal begrudgingly.Soon another snake is involved: a glossy snake named Grace Glossy, a boar-farmer and single mother who lives close to Mud. When her farm seems to become another target of the mercenaries, Rango includes to Jake's duties protection of Grace as well as her home and son Teddy. Neither the hired outlaw or the law-abiding civilian like the arrangement, but they're over time forced to trust each other in the face of the unfolding threats.Now with a Character SheetOfficial Description: In the old west, there's only one law: survive. The citizens of Mud are being attacked by mercenaries. But if Rango's going to save his town again he'll need to call in an old enemy: Rattlesnake Jake.

Whether they like it or not they'll need to work together to save the town.Be careful of Late Arrival Spoilers regarding the movie. | |

Dirty Coward: Benjamin Hares proves himself to be one of these before his death.

The Sociopath | |
Old West (Fanfic) / int_19851b86 | comment |
The Sociopath: Benjamin Hares is a short-sighted conman prone to blameshifting and running away from his own troubles. He charmed Grace to marry him against the wishes of her father, then betrayed her by abandoning her without leaving her anything. He returns ten years later just to sell her home in order to save his own hide again. When his flattery, guilt-tripping and feigned concern have failed him, he resorts to beating up his wife without any signs of remorse. He comes to regret this course of action not too long afterward, when karma finally catches up with him. | |

Calling Card: "The Carpenter" Reth is a desert iguana who's known for leaving a little wooden figure for everything he steals. Jake thinks leaving a calling card like that is stupid.

Angelique confirms this later, and even later, a lawyer arrives on Dufayel's behalf. In response, Rango challenges the issue to be dealt in court. | |

Bad Bill fails the assignment Dufayel gave him and doesn't appear in another chapter, but the vicious beatdown he gets from Grace for hurting Teddy leads the inquisitive Jake (as well as the readers) learn that nine of her ten unhatched eggs were smashed by robbers she killed in retaliation, which is why she's so prejudiced toward outlaws. | |

"Shut Up!" Gunshot: When Rango has recruited Jake and returns to Mud with him, the townsfolk panic upon seeing the rattlesnake. Rango fires a shot in the air to make them listen to him. Later Rango does this again when the panicked townsfolk rush to his office to inform him of the sudden stop of the lake's water flow. While the trick works again, the shot makes a hole in the sheriff's ceiling. | |

Dufayel heavily implies that he's willing to target Teddy to get to Grace. When he decides to pull out all the stops, he has Teddy captured to lure Grace (as well as Jake and Rango through her) into his clutches. After all his henchman have been defeated, he holds Teddy at gunpoint and threatens to kill him if he's not allowed to leave. | |

Old West (Fanfic) / int_3a29c5c8 | comment |
Villainous Legacy: While Tortoise John was killed by Jake in the movie, he still influences the plot by the virtue of having his Evil Plan invested by Dufayel in exchange for giving the fox the right to the gold beneath the town. | |

Hostage Situation: One occurs in the penultimate chapter when Dufayel — who's all out of henchmen by this point — forces Teddy against the edge of a pit with his gun. His demand is to be allowed to leave. Jake makes the fox focus on him while subtly instructing Teddy who suddenly bites the fox in the arm and escapes to his mother. | |

Snakes Are Sinister: Averted because there are different individuals among snakes as much as with any other species. Unfortunately, snakes in general suffer from prejudices because of their predatory nature and the bad apples. Grace and Teddy are both pretty nice, while Jake is an Anti-Hero. The villainous side includes a Psycho for Hire named Henry and Benjamin Hares, Grace's cowardly con artist husband. | |

Jerk with a Heart of Jerk: ...and then there's Ben Hares, Grace's estranged husband. Ten years earlier, he left his pregnant wife high and dry to escape the debt he accrued as a conman. He then appears out of nowhere, acting like he's concerned about Grace and Teddy and wants a chance to make everything up. He then attempts to sell Grace's lands, claiming it to be for their own good. He loses all credibility and proves himself to be worse than just a liar and a coward by starting to guilt-trip Grace again for his own undoings and reveals his darker side by unashamedly assaulting her. This ends about as well for him as you'd expect. | |

Old West (Fanfic) / int_479d4e5a | comment |
Would Hurt a Child: When Dufayel hires Bad Bill's gang to intimidate Grace to sell her lands, they run into Teddy and start beating him up. Unfortunately for them, the act makes Grace royally ticked off to the point that she doesn't need Jake's help to do the same to them. Before Teddy or his nine siblings had hatched, their eggs were attacked by outlaw robbers. Only Teddy's egg was left after Grace killed the ruffians. Dufayel heavily implies that he's willing to target Teddy to get to Grace. When he decides to pull out all the stops, he has Teddy captured to lure Grace (as well as Jake and Rango through her) into his clutches. After all his henchman have been defeated, he holds Teddy at gunpoint and threatens to kill him if he's not allowed to leave. | |

Old West (Fanfic) / int_4a8c4e5f | comment |
Big "WHAT?!": Beans shrieks this when Rango confesses that he's going to seek out Rattlesnake Jake, prompting her broken defense reflex to kick in. This is used twice by several of Mud's townsfolk when Dufayel first appears to make his intentions clear to them, Rango and Jake. The first one is exclaimed when Rango speaks out loud his realization that Dufayel owns the gold mine underneath Mud. The second (and louder) one comes when Dufayel claims himself to be the legal owner of the town. Rango lets out one when Angeligue announces her intention to leave Mud with her children before Dufayel returns to end the town. | |

When Grace and Teddy first come to Mud and face distrust from most of the townsfolk, she's angry at them for scorning them just for being snakes and having the audacity to consider themselves to be without sin. That being said, Grace herself is very prejudiced toward Jake and other outlaws. She has her reasons for this: she's eventually revealed to have killed a group of outlaws in blind fury for smashing nearly all her unhatched eggs and covering it up. This makes Jake disgusted with her for acting like a law-abiding citizen who's above outlaws like him. | |

I Am Not My Father: The reason Jake's not a fan of drinking is because of his Alcoholic Parent James, who was also a domestic abuser. When he finds Grace beaten by her husband, his following Unstoppable Rage inflicted on Benjamin is partly influenced by the memory of his parents and his father's words of Jake becoming a man like him. In the following chapter, Jake continues acting on this trope by ultimately deciding not to drown his sorrows in regards to his strained relationship with Grace. | |

Sequel Hook: The author has left it ambiguous whether or not a sequel will be made in the future, but there's still the matter of Henry being at large and seeking revenge on Jake. Grace also owes him a favour (for telling her where Dufayel is keeping Teddy) which he promises to claim someday. | |

Shoot the Dangerous Minion | |
Old West (Fanfic) / int_6486a1a9 | comment |
Shoot the Dangerous Minion: Dufayel decides eventually that Henry is too volatile to be kept around and injures the kingsnake with help from Ramirez, tossing Henry out a window several stories. While they believe the kingsnake to have died, Henry survives and flees to have his revenge another day. | |

Unstoppable Rage | |
Old West (Fanfic) / int_6b983bf7 | comment |
Unstoppable Rage: Grace reacts this way when she finds her son being beaten up by Bad Bill's gang. If Teddy had not called out for her, she might have killed them. In fact, Grace has killed before. Years ago, a bunch of robbers ended up killing nine for her ten unhatched babies, an act for which Grace repaid them with their own deaths, realizing the bloody deed only afterwards. This is Jake's reaction to seeing Grace battered by Benjamin. Benjamin doesn't get out of THAT one alive. | |

The Alcoholic: Dufayel indulges in brandy in every scene taking place in his office, apparently to cope with his frustration over the situation that's not improving in his favor. Jake's father James Douglas always returned home under the influence, leading him to beat Jake's mother every night. Doc, Mud's doctor. Even though he's constantly intoxicated, he's good at his job. | |

Mexican Standoff | |
Old West (Fanfic) / int_83f0971b | comment |
Mexican Standoff: While escaping Tomson and his two mercenaries, Rango jumps in a barrel. As Tomson is about to yank him out, the sheriff points his gun at the rat's face while the other two mercs point theirs at the chameleon. The stalemate is broken by the townsfolk coming to Rango's rescue. During Grace's introduction scene, Jake attacks her and pins her to the ground with his coils. When she struggles, Jake attempts to strangle her, but then Rango points his gun at Jake's head with deadly seriousness and tells him to release Grace. After a long moment of glaring contesting, Jake admits his precarious position and backs off. When Delilah first comes to Grace's property and Beans points her gun at her, the bobcat whips out her own gun and points it at Beans until Jake arrives. In his first appearance, Irvin Worst places his ax against Dufayel's throat, but Dufayel is unconcerned because he has his revolver's barrel placed cunningly up against the lizard's gut. Before the stalemate can get messy, the fox starts talking business, prompting Worst to back off. | |

Asshole Victim | |
Old West (Fanfic) / int_8ed5c6e4 | comment |
Asshole Victim: Amos, the previous sheriff of Dirt, had an unfortunate encounter with Jake's venom, and it killed him slowly. It's hard to feel sympathy for Amos because he openly showed contempt toward Jake's abused mother and killed her while she was dying due to one of her husband's domestic beatings. Another posthumous example: Jake's memories reveal that he tortured Tortoise John for days before ending him with venom. Benjamin Hares also had a bad run-in with Jake's venom, like Amos before him, after Benjamin lied to Grace, tried to sell her lands behind her back and battered her when she tried to throw him out. A third posthumous example: the first creature Jake killed (yes, venom was heavily involved) was a human who enjoyed skinning and toying with rattlesnakes caught for the rattlesnake round-up Jake ended up in as a child. All the villains killed during the climax (Kepper, Irvin Worst, Ramirez Arvenga, and Dufayel) qualify. | |

However, he does honor his contract and has enough Pet the Dog moments to keep him from being a Nominal Hero. | |

Big Bad | |
Old West (Fanfic) / int_970c790a | comment |
Big Bad: Dufayel, a wealthy fox and the former investor of the late Tortoise John. The plot is driven with him doing anything in his power to make the people of Mud and anyone else in the area (like Grace and Beans) to leave so that he can harvest the great gold deposit situated under Mud. | |

Never My Fault: Dufayel blames his imminent bankruptcy and his harassment of the heroes on ex-mayor Tortoise John, who asked the fox to invest the mayor's Evil Plan in exchange for the big gold deposit. Benjamin Hares was a chronic guilt-tripper while he still lived with Grace. He hasn't changed at all after ten years of staying away. | |

"Not So Different" Remark | |
Old West (Fanfic) / int_984ef9ef | comment |
"Not So Different" Remark: Both Jake and Grace have past traumas that make them guard themselves in order to prevent themselves from being hurt by others. Grace admits this to Jake when she finally confesses her feelings toward him. Also, they can both be utterly terrifying when provoked, with Grace admitting that as much as she hides it, she has the same capacity to take a life in utter fury as Jake has. | |

Evil Counterpart | |
Old West (Fanfic) / int_9b54d536 | comment |
Evil Counterpart: Benjamin Hares, Grace's estranged husband, is this for Rango. Both of them are cowardly, tend to get into trouble, and are quick to fall to bluffing. This fits their species because Rango is a chameleon and Benjamin is a gopher snake, a species that mimics rattlesnakes to ward off predators. However, the serpentine conman is much more selfish and honorless than the chameleon sheriff. The difference is demonstrated perfectly in the climax when Rango takes a bullet aimed at the wife and son of the posthumous Hares, who didn't really care about either of them. | |

Continuity Nod: Naturally there's a lot of references to the events of the movie. For example, when Jake and Beans first meet one year after the movie, he says that it's nice to see her "pretty brown eyes" again, purposefully referring to how he threatened to squeeze those eyes out of her skull. Rango recalls Wounded Bird's "that was a bad idea" line after he has taken the bullet Dufayel aimes at Grace and Teddy. | |

Contrasting Sequel Antagonist | |
Old West (Fanfic) / int_a3515d6 | comment |
Contrasting Sequel Antagonist: Dufayel to Tortoise John. Tortoise John was the mayor of Dirt's desert town who was good at hiding his villainous nature with charisma. His investor Dufayel is a wealthy city slicker who, despite his politeness, never really hides his motivations or condescending nature in-story. They both intend to wipe out the town of Dirt (renamed as Mud) by claiming the land, but for different reasons; Tortoise John was a Visionary Villain who wanted to create a modern city, but Dufayel's entire motivation is to claim from underneath the town the gold he was promised and needs, because he's dead broke without it. They also contrast each other in their relationships with Rango and Rattlesnake Jake. Mayor John turned Rango into his pawn by making him Dirt's sheriff and hired the services of Rattlesnake Jake, pitting them against each other until he tried to kill Jake. Dufayel in turn quickly makes himself an enemy to both Rango and Jake who work together against him right from the beginning. | |

Thieves' Guild | |
Old West (Fanfic) / int_a74e8ba4 | comment |
Thieves' Guild: The Gunslinger Court is sort of a hierarchy among outlaws formed in order to keep themselves from tearing each other apart. Through this hierarchy, they can contact each other for special jobs when needed. Only those outlaws who are best at what they do are allowed in. Jake ("the Grim Reaper") is the founder and the highest in the pecking order. Other known members are his Number Two Reth ("the Carpenter"), the third in command Delilah Rangler ("the Scarlet Kiss"), Irvin Worst ("the fire breather"), Johan Quall ("the fickle thief") and Kepper ("the knife nut"). In the latter half of the story, Dufayel helps Worst, Quall and Kepper in injuring Jake, allowing Worst to try and claim the leadership position and Ramirez Arvenga to try to claim membership. | |

There's "the Grim Reaper" (Jake), "the Carpenter" (Reth), "the Scarlet Kiss" (Delilah Rangler), "the fire breather" (Irvin Worst), "the fickle thief" (Johan Quall) and "the knife nut" (Kepper). | |

Shadow Archetype: After Grace witnesses Jake remorselessly killing that scoundrel Benjamin in righteous fury, she's terrified of a small part of her relishing in it and her own hidden capacity for doing the same (which the deceased robbers who killed nearly all of her babies can attest to). Like with Rango, the vices of Benjamin Hares include pretension and cowardice. Rango was exposed as a fraud but returned to save Dirt as a true hero, and even though he hasn't fully lost his vices, he attempts to do the right thing as a sheriff. Benjamin in turn is an incorrigible conman who cares firstly about himself and secondly about his own safety. He charmed Grace to marry him and left her penniless to escape his debt, returning ten years later with false regrets to sell her out again and get said debt covered. In short, Benjamin is what Rango could have become if he didn't care about the well-being of others and had never decided to redeem himself by saving the people of Dirt and instead continued his life as a fraudster on the move. In the climax, Rango does something Benjamin wouldn't have likely done: jumping in front of a bullet aimed at Grace and Teddy. | |

Berserk Button: Don't hurt Teddy in front of Grace. Jake really hates liars, which is why he's constantly annoyed by Rango's habitual pretentiousness. However, he's livid with Grace when she nearly kills Bad Bill's gang: the woman who has harped on about upholding the law for the entire time he has known her turns out to be capable of killing as mercilessly as him and has actually killed a group of outlaws and acted superior to them afterwards. The sight of Grace being battered by Benjamin drives Jake into murderous rage, partly because it reminds him of his mother suffering the same way because of his father. | |

Beware My Stinger Tail | |
Old West (Fanfic) / int_cbe3a70d | comment |
Jake is early on implied to have experienced this. He lost his rattle as a child when a hawk tried to eat him, and he gained his tail gun in its place through an operation that might have killed him. He's then revealed to have been raised by a drunkard father who beat his mother every night. He was Forced to Watch one of those beatings one night. It led to his father being driven out of town, and his dying mother was "put out of her misery" by an unsympathetic deputy. Jake was left on his own, and he lost his rattle only a day after. He was then caught for a rattlesnake round-up and witnessed other snakes being killed and skinned. While escaping, he made the sadistic human his first kill. | |

And Your Reward Is Edible: Realizing she can't fix the damages caused by rustlers by herself, Grace swallows her pride and hires Jake to help her. After the day's work, she rewards him with a meal instead of money like he expected. He's not happy about this at first, but settles for the best meal he's had for ages. After Jake teaches Teddy to overcome his visual impairment, a grateful Grace makes the rattlesnake another good meal. | |

Hypocrite: When Grace and Teddy first come to Mud and face distrust from most of the townsfolk, she's angry at them for scorning them just for being snakes and having the audacity to consider themselves to be without sin. That being said, Grace herself is very prejudiced toward Jake and other outlaws. She has her reasons for this: she's eventually revealed to have killed a group of outlaws in blind fury for smashing nearly all her unhatched eggs and covering it up. This makes Jake disgusted with her for acting like a law-abiding citizen who's above outlaws like him. Benjamin Hares acts all righteous while slagging his wife of adultery, ignoring the fact that he betrayed her first by abandoning her for ten years. | |

After Bad Bill and his gang fail to fulfill the assignment given to them by Dufayel and end up getting their butts kicked by Grace, and then again by Jake, they disappear. It's stated by the author that as soon as they were healed, they decided this all to be way over their heads and skipped town. During the climax, Johan Quall is intimidated by Jake to run while he still can. | |

Reasonable Authority Figure: Dufayel uses his legal claim to Mud and calls a lawman and a lawyer to tell Mud's residents to leave peacefully. When Rango blurts out in desperation that they want to challenge Dufayel's claim in a legal court, both men accept it and excuse themselves. When Benjamin tries to use his status as Grace's husband to sell the lands left to her by her father, a representative of the bank becomes suspicious of him and fetches Grace. Catridge the attorney then hinders Benjamin's efforts by saying that the case is postponed until he's provided the required legal documents. | |

Extreme Mêlée Revenge | |
Old West (Fanfic) / int_e41cf31d | comment |
Extreme Mêlée Revenge: When Jake finds Grace beaten by Benjamin Hares, he's absolutely incensed because of what was done to Grace and how it reminds him of how his mother suffered because of his father. He proceeds to give Benjamin a bloody battering, which includes a loosened tooth from a headbutt and no use of bullets because Jake's that angry. It ends with Jake injecting into Benjamin all the venom his fangs can provide, much more than would have been needed. | |

Makeup Is Evil | |
Old West (Fanfic) / int_e44da6cc | comment |
Makeup Is Evil: Delilah Rangler, the third highest in the pecking order of the Gunslinger Court, wears bright red lipstick and uses it to leave a red kiss on the cheek of everyone she kills, earning her nickname "the Scarlet Kiss". | |

Composite Character | |
Old West (Fanfic) / int_e4965307 | comment |
Composite Character: Henry, one of Dufayel's guys and a violent kingsnake besides, is an Expy of Frank from Once Upon a Time in the West. He also has the motive to avenge his brother that the character of Harmonica had in the same movie. | |

Expy | |
Old West (Fanfic) / int_e5421161 | comment |
Expy: Henry is based on Frank from Once Upon a Time in the West. However, he also borrows from another character from the same movie a motive to avenge his dead brother. Delilah Rangler/"the Scarlet Kiss" has more than a passing resemblance to Kissin' Kate Barlow. | |

Weight Woe | |
Old West (Fanfic) / int_e7ecdeb0 | comment |
Weight Woe: This trope gets a reference when Grace feels self-conscious for not fitting into the doctor's office. While she knows that to be irrational (Mud usually hasn't patients as big as adult snakes), her womanly vanity still makes her feel that she needs to lose some weight. | |

Freudian Trio | |
Old West (Fanfic) / int_e8cae797 | comment |
Freudian Trio: The Terrible Trio between Irvin Worst, Johan Quall and Kepper. The ambitious yet careful Worst is the Ego, the composed and calculating Quall is the Superego, and the rather uninhibited Kepper is the Id. | |

Rising Water, Rising Tension | |
Old West (Fanfic) / int_f1029720 | comment |
Rising Water, Rising Tension: When the blocked water pipe that provides Mud's water is unblocked, Grace is forced to escape the following flood from the underground caverns. She nearly makes it out before she's trapped by debris and is left in the danger of dying from the lack of oxygen or warmth. Fortunately, Jake manages to pull her up in time. Ramirez Arvenga as well as the men working in the gold mine also have to flee, though some of them don't make it out in time. | |

Dufayel blames his imminent bankruptcy and his harassment of the heroes on ex-mayor Tortoise John, who asked the fox to invest the mayor's Evil Plan in exchange for the big gold deposit. | |

Creepy Child: The canonical Priscilla. However, it is actually advantageous in getting Teddy a playmate, because such a morbid girl is the most likely candidate to get along with a snake. | |

Anger Born of Worry | |
Old West (Fanfic) / int_f4b1129f | comment |
Anger Born of Worry: Beans reacts several times this way toward Rango. After his first encounter with Tomson and his cohorts, Beans berates him for nearly getting himself shot. She does this again when Rango first brings Jake to Mud and addresses the furiously distrustful crowd. After Grace nearly dies while reopening Mud's blogged water source, Jake is furious with her for endangering her life like that and demands her not to do so again. Jake reacts this way again after Grace is offered money for her lands by Dufayel in person and turns him down. The final chapter has this moment once again with Beans who forgives Rango's act of lying to her after she hears about his heroics in the final battle. | |

Old West (Fanfic) / int_f64a9cf7 | comment |
Earn Your Happy Ending: It sure takes a considerate amount of heartaches, quarreling and struggling, but in the end, Dufayel and most of the other bad guys are gone, Mud can continue its life in peace, and everyone (Jake and Grace included) are living happily. | |

Dark Secret | |
Old West (Fanfic) / int_f909b16b | comment |
Dark Secret: Grace lost nine of her ten unhatched babies because of robbers. After she killed them in blind fury and buried the bodies, she has presented herself as a law-abiding woman as repentance. Learning this secret makes Jake livid with Grace until she explains herself further and asks for Jake's forgiveness. The Hell from which Rattlesnake Jake crawled from was a rattlesnake round-up he was caught for after he lost his mother and tail as a child. | |

Dark and Troubled Past | |
Old West (Fanfic) / int_fed93e1b | comment |
Dark and Troubled Past: Jake is early on implied to have experienced this. He lost his rattle as a child when a hawk tried to eat him, and he gained his tail gun in its place through an operation that might have killed him. He's then revealed to have been raised by a drunkard father who beat his mother every night. He was Forced to Watch one of those beatings one night. It led to his father being driven out of town, and his dying mother was "put out of her misery" by an unsympathetic deputy. Jake was left on his own, and he lost his rattle only a day after. He was then caught for a rattlesnake round-up and witnessed other snakes being killed and skinned. While escaping, he made the sadistic human his first kill. Grace was head over heels in love with Benjamin Hares and practically rushed to the altar. One year later after their marriage, he suddenly left without a word, leaving Grace pregnant with his eggs, penniless and homeless. Since then, she hasn't tried anything serious with another man. After she laid her ten eggs, robbers smashed nine of them while trying to rob her, after which she to kill them in blind fury. That incident left her prejudiced against outlaws, which Jake happens to be. Rango doesn't like remembering his time as a pet living in a glass container, isolated from the rest of the world. | |
