Dropping the Bombshell | |
| PostMU: Life's a Scream! (Fanfic) / int_10416043 | comment |
Dropping the Bombshell: In Chapter 6, we have Dean Hardscrabble of all Monsters telling off Johnny Worthington when he bad-mouthed the OK Fraternity by telling him in front of the whole University that she's welcoming the entirety of the OK Fraternity into her Scaring Program, and she has no objections that Mike and Sulley are staying at the OK Fraternity House and lastly, she encourages the duo to assist the OK Fraternity in their Scaring studies. Yet another bombshell is the fact that Don Carlton announced his marriage to Squishy's mother Sherry to the entire University too. | |

Amazingly Embarrassing Parents | |
| PostMU: Life's a Scream! (Fanfic) / int_1434e55c | comment |
Amazingly Embarrassing Parents: Squishy's mom, Sherry Squibbles as usual. Now Sherry Carlton, as she has been married to Don Carlton in chapter one. Heck, in her first scene for the story, Mrs. Squibbles ran up to Dean Hardscrabble in front of the whole university, grabbed the latter's hands and asked the Dean of Scaring to be her Maiden of Honor for the wedding. She even asked the Eta Hiss Hiss (HSS) Sorority to be the bridesmaids... and saying that the girls seemed like 'such an adorable little group'. In Chapter 6, she hugs the Dean in front of the whole university. | |

Hilarity Ensues: Quite a few. The OK Fraternity stealing Archie the Scare Pig from Fear Tech in chapter 2. Exceeda Zeta's "training" in Chapter 5, in which the girls caused quite an amusing scene in front of the OK Fraternity and the EEK sorority. The Ping Pong Match between Javier Rios and Mrs. Carlton in Chapter 5. Brock Pearson's various antics such as his No Indoor Voice moments and his impromptu hugs. | |

Darker and Edgier | |
| PostMU: Life's a Scream! (Fanfic) / int_14beeefd | comment |
Darker and Edgier: The story, while still lighthearted in tone, is fairly darker and more serious compared to the movie. Here are a few standouts: At one point in the fic, there's a lab explosion that causes the Perry twins to fall into a coma, and eventually having to be separated to survive. Made worse by the fact that Terry angrily told Terri that he sometimes wishes that they were separated, literally right before the accident. Naomi Jackson's crush on Terry causes her mental condition to get worse and worse as the story goes along due to the perpetual stress and guilt she feels. At first, she was just completely nervous and afraid of the outcome that might occur when she tried to talk to Terry. Things go downhill when she ends up getting a pretty massive "The Reason You Suck" Speech from Terry in the library, which is shortly followed by the aforementioned lab accident that leaves the already broken girl a sobbing wreck. Finally, when Noami is planted with a nightmare by Pyapi featuring the twins, her condition gets to the point where its hinted she might be becoming suicidal. Boy, does this chick need a break... The nightmares in chapter 10 featured perhaps some of the darkest scenes in the entire story. Each of the fraternities and sororities are planted with nightmares by Pyapi as punishment for how they all treated OK in the previous semester and they all featured the Perry twins dying in the hospital and their ghosts coming back to haunt the dreamer. Let's just say that the results were... not pretty. To a lesser but still otherwise serious extent, Laura tends to suffer panic attacks several times throughout the story. | |

Heel–Face Door-Slam | |
| PostMU: Life's a Scream! (Fanfic) / int_15b09af9 | comment |
Heel–Face Door-Slam: Flashback in Chapter 7: when Big Red attempts to visit Oozma Kappa at Squishy's mother's house for the very first time. He claims that he and the rest of Frat Row REALLY want to make it up to OK for laughing at them about the ROR prank as well as having rejected them since the fraternity's founding, announcing that a party is being made in their honor back at the JOX frat house. Knowing Terry had just delivered Johnny Worthington of all monsters a "Reason You Suck" Speech, not only does he finally release his pent up emotions about what OK suffered even long before Mike and Sulley arrived, he makes it perfectly clear to the JOX president that he doesn't want to do anything with the Greek community (as well as the student body) any longer. Talk about harsh role reversal of the cold shoulder right there... | |

Tempting Fate: Chet Alexander falls into this in Chapter 5, when he makes a bet to Brynn Larson of the EEK Sorority that his fellow ROR brother Javier Rios will one-up Mrs. Squibbles/Carlton at the ping-pong game, and ends up losing the bet following the OK mom's surprise victory. | |

I Will Tear Your Arms Off/I'll Kill You!: Terry Perry threatened to do this to Johnny Worthington when the latter bad-mouthed Mike and Sulley in front of the whole University. He even threatened to tear Johnny's horns off and jab those into his eyes! Threatened numerous times by the dream versions of the twins in the dreams the various Fraternity and Sorority members have in Chapter 10. | |

All There in the Manual: Much of the nuggets of information about the various fraternities and sororities are derived from the official Monsters University website, the Monsters University Year(Fear)Book and Official Essential Guide, as well as art of the film and the Official Magazine. Examples include Dean Hardscrabble's past as a sorority member of Eta Hiss Hiss (HSS), Terry Perry's love of drinking out of China Cups and Terri's adoration of the BLORT drinks, just to name a few. | |

Poor Communication Kills: Laura and Squishy both are guilty of this trope, but more of the latter as he can't tell his secret crush how he feels about her, or in complete sentences without being a little silly. Terry's refusal to tell anyone about Merida Malicestorm breaking his heart makes him appear to be a heartless jerk in reference to Naomi and his argument with his twin. Time will tell if the end results of the latter will lead to an It's All My Fault moment or two. | |

No Sympathy: Averted for Johnny Worthington in Chapter 6, which revealed that he did care about the Perry twins, although it's just a little. And is now averted in Chapter 7 when he snuck the Twins expensive gifts with an even stronger aversion in Chapter 10 after a terrible nightmare he had about his actions coming back to bite him in the worst possible way. | |

Green-Eyed Monster: How Naomi Jackson looks at other Monster Girls which Terry Perry talks to instead of her. Monnie Monstre also has shades of this trope as she was practically seething when the object of her affections, Randall Boggs, seems to be more attracted to her sorority leader Laura Sharp than her. In chapter 7, Claire reacts this way when Katy mentions she'd rather have Brock playing the prince in the scene she and Claire are doing. | |

Adaptation Expansion | |
| PostMU: Life's a Scream! (Fanfic) / int_23473ae7 | comment |
Due to the lack of screen time for the various fraternity and sorority characters, and the fact the author has loved quite a number of them, she wants to show their individual personalities and give them more expansion than what they are "written" with. | |

Ironic Echo | |
| PostMU: Life's a Scream! (Fanfic) / int_237404cc | comment |
Ironic Echo: During the first event of the Renewed Scare Games, the leader of PNK politely albeit nervously wishes OK good luck. Terry responds by snarling back, "Thanks. We're gonna rip you to pieces!" Both the PNK girls and his teammates are quite shocked. She had said the same thing to OK back in the movie. Brock turns to Claire in the aftermath of the Perry twins' lab accident in chapter 6 and remarks "Remember when you said 'you could totally die'?" When she nods, he continues "I hope you're wrong." The Irony isn't lost on her one bit. | |

Oblivious to Love: Terry Perry has shades of this Trope. He has many Monster Girls vying for his attention, but he did gradually pay only the barest amount of attention to their advances. Revealed to be a aversion. Terry is not oblivious, but he is incredibly bitter because of a previous bad heartbreak and is afraid of committing to any girl in fear of having that scar torn open again. Laura and Randall are this trope full stop to Squishy and Monnie respectively. | |

Disappeared Dad: Squishy has an absent father as seen from the film, and we do not know what happened to his father. Don later marries Sherry in the first chapter. This probably means his biological father left the picture a while ago. The author claims that there was originally going to be flashback revolving around Squishy's biological father, but scrapped the idea due to lack of info. | |

Though he was already reformed at the time, Laura manages to shed some light on Sulley by calling him out on his arrogance in the past. | |

Don Carlton reminded him that young monsters tend to do terrible things in their youth due to their naive attitudes towards life, and the OK Fraternity don't hold it against him that much. Naomi Jackson also counts as she felt that she must atone for breaking Terry Perry's heart when the PNK Sorority laughed at the OK Fraternity during the humiliation prank played by ROR in the film. The entire Greek Community (exempting ROR), the Council, and the Dean were all revealed to of successfully done this for OK after Sulley and Mike were welcomed back to the University. | |

Sulley is completely unaware of how Randall has neither forgotten nor forgiven him for unwittingly botching his performance in the scare simulator in the final event of last semester's scare games. | |

Don't You Dare Pity Me!: In Chapters 4 and 5, Terry Perry snaps at his younger brother for insisting that he has found a significant other but doesn't acknowledge it. And chapter 7 confirms that Terry has been nursing a broken heart ever since high school due to a girl who belonged to a clique that resembled PNK pulling a Carrie-style prank on him specifically. This also resembled ROR's prank on OK in the movie. The University's participation (specifically PNK, and even more specific Naomi's) re-opened that old scar. | |

Character Development | |
| PostMU: Life's a Scream! (Fanfic) / int_3b113b7 | comment |
Character Development: As previously noted, the fraternities and sororities from the movie are given much bigger roles in the fanfic, with each of their personalities and relationships with each other being further expressed and expanded as the story goes on. Laura Sharp gets some development herself as well, albeit rather slowly. While she's still a nervous wreck in later chapters, she becomes a bit more accepting of her role as a sorority leader. Terry Perry has some pretty major development throughout the story. The first few chapters portrayed him as the mature and responsible member he was, just like in the movie. As time goes on, he begins to express a much more hostile side of him, snapping at several monsters such as Noami Jackson, Johnny Worthington, and even his own brother. This is actually due to the fact that he and Terri were bullied constantly during high school, and all of it pained Terry rather deeply (the reason he snapped at Terri, however, was due to him trying to convince Terry that Noami wasn't as bad as he says she is, which didn't really end well... for the both of them). | |

Blatant Lies: Terri in chapter 4 tells Naomi that his brother is not available, which is incredibly awkward, considering that the twins are conjoined. Laura saying that she's "okay" after her panic attacks. It's obvious, especially in later chapters, that she really isn't. Squishy denying his attraction towards his secret crush on Laura. | |

Mysterious Past: Laura Sharp's past University life in Fear Tech is pretty much shrouded in mystery, and we still don't know why she's so easy to panic and her obvious fear when accused of stealing another's boyfriend and especially of the University President when she met Claire Wheeler. Katy displays some traits of having a mysterious past throughout the story. Several chapters show her as expressing self-consciousness and subtle signs of being depressed. | |

It sadly gets much worse for her in later chapters... Revealed to have been Terry's reason for avoiding love as shown in a high school flashback in chapter 7. | |

The Perry twins again in Chapter 10 when they wake up and discover they've been separated, likely permanently. | |

Female Gaze: Quite a few. Sonia Lewis has this towards Terry Perry of the Perry twins. In chapter 5, it has been explicitly mentioned she could be seen "licking her lips and having a highly desirable smile on her face" whenever she sees Terry Perry.(Naomi is almost sickened by this when she sees Sonia eyeing Terry hungrily, truth be told). Maria Garcia also has this towards Terry Perry. In chapter 2, Nadya Petrov mentioned that Maria is thinking of "working him out" for a change. | |

Jerk with a Heart of Gold: Only time will tell if Johnny Worthington III will become this later in the story. Johnny Worthington did show a little bit of caring for the Perry twins in chapter 6. Possibly confirmed in chapter 7 when Laura spotted him sneaking a expensive gift of the Twin's favorite instruments right under OK's noses. Whether he was trying to get on Laura's good side or was doing this out of genuine care remains to not be seen. After the dream he had in Chapter 10, he's starting to change ever so slowly but progress is progress. | |

Angel Face, Demon Face | |
| PostMU: Life's a Scream! (Fanfic) / int_488422f | comment |
Angel Face, Demon Face: Laura Sharp. Her angel face is when she conversing with her friends and the Oozma Kappas. Her demon face is when she's pushed over the edge. A good example would be in chapter 5, where she revealed her demon face when she was calling Sulley out on his arrogance. Terry Perry could give Laura a run for her money. His angel face is his normal laid-back and relaxed state. His demon face is when he's pushed far over the edge like in chapters 4 and 6. In chapter 4, we see a bit of Randall's demon face with regards to Sulley. In a series of nasty nightmares in chapter 10, we get to see both Perry twins' demon faces as well as Carla's towards Johnny. All 3 demon faces shake those who see them very badly and prompt decisions to make massive changes in behavior, though Johnny's journey is slow. | |

Break the Cutie | |
| PostMU: Life's a Scream! (Fanfic) / int_4b316d47 | comment |
Break the Cutie: Terry received a particularly bad one by a female monster named Merida Malicestorm that controlled a classic high school bully clique. The clique resembled PNK (albeit they were A LOT meaner) and pulled a prank on Terry specifically in a Carrie-like fashion that traumatized him and clearly shattered his perception on romance. This prank also resembled ROR's prank during the movie, which implies that ROR's prank angered him so bad that it re-opened the wound. Laura is hinted to possibly have something happen to her in the past that had a lasting effect on her in the form of anxiety attacks. By Chapter 10 Naomi has been hit with this hard in regards to her romance troubles with Terry Perry and she is not coping with it well. Not only did she receive a massive "The Reason You Suck" Speech by Terry in the library but in Chapter 10 she received this from both twins in the nightmare that Pyapi implanted in her mind. At this point she is a Stepford Smiler approaching suicidal levels of depression from the guilt and pain over Terry. | |

All of the Other Reindeer | |
| PostMU: Life's a Scream! (Fanfic) / int_4c8e8078 | comment |
All of the Other Reindeer: Averted for young Laura Sharp, especially at the prologue of the story. Male monsters actually quarrel among each other to ask her to partner up with them during the field trip to Monsters Inc. However, based on what little we know so far, the trope is played somewhat straight for Laura's time at Fear Tech, mainly because she isn't the sociable type. Played completely straight with the Perry twins, who were shunned and bullied by their classmates in high school and early years in MU. This served as a major contributor to a lot of Terry's current emotional problems. | |

Polar Opposite Twins: The Perry brothers, Terry and Terri. The former is calm, cynical, and intellectual, where the latter is energetic, optimistic, and theatrical. They're later shown to have different views about romance. Terry is bound and determined not to admit his feelings for Naomi Jackson after the prank pulled by ROR during the movie hurt his perception on the Greek Community and affected his ability to trust girls while the idea of being so bitter out and out shocks the incredibly romantic Terri. Terry ironically was the romantic one back in high school while Terri was the bound one (to put it into perspective Terri noticed really quick that the girl Terry was pining for was going to hurt him and warned him sternly that she was a cold witch). | |

Conjoined Twins | |
| PostMU: Life's a Scream! (Fanfic) / int_53243b25 | comment |
Conjoined Twins: Terri and Terry Perry of the Oozma Kappa (OK) Fraternity. As of Chapter 10, the twins wake up to find themselves in separate beds and directly see that they have both been separated, meaning this trope is now averted. | |

Dark Is Not Evil: Quite a few examples, especially from the HSS sorority: Rosie Levin, who in spite of her intimidating appearance is a kind soul who feels as remorseful as everyone else in the Greek community for alienating OK and works hard to make up for hurting them in the past. Sonia Lewis, who has some moments of being a Perky Goth in the story thanks to her love of chocolate and crush on Terry Perry. Nadya Petrov, who is a Big Sister Mentor to Naomi Jackson, especially due to the latter's heartache about Terry Perry. | |

Author Appeal | |
| PostMU: Life's a Scream! (Fanfic) / int_6627695f | comment |
Author Appeal: To put it in Cartuneslover16's words herself: My first-ever MU story. Trust me, long before the movie even premiered, I had been a fan SO true to the MU. I'm obsessed with it, actually. The main heroine, Laura Sharp, is Cartuneslover16's personal OC. The author has an adoration for the Perry twins, so they're some of the story's more central characters. The author has also personally preferred Squishy Squibbles/Carlton than to Johnny Worthington. Due to the lack of screen time for the various fraternity and sorority characters, and the fact the author has loved quite a number of them, she wants to show their individual personalities and give them more expansion than what they are "written" with. | |

Jerkass Has a Point: All involving the ROR Fraternity. A flashback in Chapter 6, taking place immediately after the Toxicity Challenge, shows Johnny Worthington stating to Campus Roar photographer Lane Picca (while defending Laura Sharp) that her "persuasion" methods on the EZ leader for a photo shoot can means jail for her, because of her disregard for Laura's opinion. Happens again in Chapter 11 part 1 with Chet Alexander (in a flashback) and Reggie Jacobs reminding two monster girls (respectively Brynn Larson of EEK and Sonia Lewis of HSS) that they (and their respective sororities) weren't any better than ROR in their previous treatment of Oozma Kappa. However, both ROR boys get rebuked when said girls tell them that they didn't change for the better, unlike the other Greek monsters. | |

Meaningful Name | |
| PostMU: Life's a Scream! (Fanfic) / int_6bda9a30 | comment |
Meaningful Name: The Oozma Kappa frat brothers are a genuine group of guys, they're "OK"; they're also "OK" with being that way. The fraternity Roar Omega Roar, the acronym if which is also ROR, clearly indicative of their skills in scaring- one of the best known techniques of which is roaring. The guys from Jaws Theta Chi (JOX) are all "jocks". The girls from Python Nu Kappa (PNK) are all cheerleaders who dress in "pink". The girls from Eta Hiss Hiss (HSS) are all goths that "hiss". "Hardscrabble" means "Little or no appreciation for great effort". The Dean's reasons for this behavior are justified to an extent, however. Terri and Terry Perry names are based off the word Terrify. Chapter 10 gets this across rather well. Laura Sharp's new Sorority, Exceeda Zeta, is easy to remember as the initials is named "EZ", which sounds like "easy." The girl who that completely broke Terry's heart in high school through a horrible prank? Her name was Merida Malicestorm. | |

Masquerade | |
| PostMU: Life's a Scream! (Fanfic) / int_6ef09297 | comment |
Masquerade: Like the movie, the story emphasizes the need to keep monsters' existence hidden from humans. Several scaring lessons focus on how to avoid suspicion, since a professional Scarer must be competent in doing so. Its importance is even incorporated in several events of the Scare Games. | |

Does Not Like Women/He-Man Woman Hater: Semi-averted for Terry Perry. Due to the fact that the Perry twins have been ridiculed and made fun of in their younger days, and in addition to the humiliation they had suffered with the rest of the Oozma Kappa Fraternity in the last Semester, the elder twin basically tries to avoid being in any sort of romantic relationship whatsoever. So much that even his younger brother Terri, who is clearly enjoying all the romantic attention he has been getting, had been unable to convince his brother to give love another chance. According to later chapters, however, Terry has been warming up to specific girls, just not those from the PNK Sorority. | |

Amusing Injuries: What pretty much happened to Dot, Katy, Colette and Monnie on the first day due to Laura Sharp's Crash-Into Hello when she tries to dash to her first Scaring Class on time... by flying. Happens to them again when Laura tries to capture Archie when he gets loose into the campus. Coming in contact with the new and improved EXPLOSIVE poison urchins for the scare games in chapter 4 causes the affected spot to swell up massively, just like the regular urchins from the film proper. Some of the monsters in the first RENEWED Scare Game emerge looking like balloons. | |

Let Us Never Speak of This Again: Averted because when Terry Perry told his brother not to bring up his problem with his romantic relationships with girls, but his brother insists on talking to him about the incidents as seen in chapter 5. Revealed in chapter 7 to be a result of a nasty heartbreak prank intended specifically for Terry back in his high school sophomore year. Terry ignoring the warning given by his less responsible romance loving brother that the girl was likely going to break his heart (which she did) suggests this might actually be a source of embarrassment, guilt, and remorse for not listening to Terri's warning. | |

Randall was pushed off his top bed as a result, although the author did not state what did Randall dreamed about. | |

| PostMU: Life's a Scream! (Fanfic) / int_7d89315b | comment |
"The Reason You Suck" Speech: Terry gives one to Naomi Jackson of PNK after she tries to admit her crush on him. He basically tells her that PNK is a female version of ROR and that he NEVER wants to see her again if he can help it. She's noticeably upset and breaks down in tears, having to be comforted by Nayda of HSS, Mike and Sulley. He gave another to Johnny in a flashback for insulting Mike and Sulley. Terry is scary good at these. In Chapter 10, we see dream versions of the twins give these to several characters with other characters having gotten the speech in an off-screen dream. All of them are rather shaken by it. | |

I Didn't Mean to Turn You On: Terry Perry is the reigning champion of this Trope with some examples being Sonia thinking that Terry's "dominant" attitude is incredibly hot as seen from Chapter 6, Maria liking his physique and what he can do with it despite having a twin and that he has some brains to go with his brawn, and Naomi finding that Terry's friendliness and hidden talents such as being good at singing and playing an electric guitar are this trope when Terry is not angry. But we have others... George Sanderson turns Colette on due to his winning smile, his sweet attitude, his positivism and sensitivity, as well as his child-like character and fuzzy fur coat. Dirk Pratt is turned on by Violet's rich, deep voice and gorgeous curves. | |

Nice Job Breaking It, Hero: Terry Perry, who has been giving the PNK sorority the cold shoulder treatment, when he broke Naomi's heart further by ranting at her in front of everybody in the university library, which caused Naomi to be emotionally depressed. Terry Perry again, when he is being somewhat physically abusive with his brother during their sibling argument. While Pyapi did indeed invoke a change with monsters in HSS, JOX, ROR, and EEK with the nightmares... she probably went a little to far with Naomi's. The author has confirmed that Naomi is reaching near suicidal levels of depression after her nightmare and on top of that the other PNK girls were forced to live through the very same nightmare from Naomi's perspective because they all have a mind link. Carrie notes that she herself felt like breaking down and crying after the dream even when she knew it technically wasn't hers. | |

Establishing Character Moment: Several. Laura Sharp's first appearance in the story shows her Determinator personality, as well as her easy to panic and actively avoiding favoritism personality traits, in addition to her inability to make friends due to her lack of friendships in Fear Tech as mentioned in Chapter one. Dean Hardscrabble's first scene, as usual, sees her swoop into the classroom, stand by her bust and trophy to show her earned credentials, and give a (slightly less) stern lecture (than in the movie) about how she expects only great things from her students. | |

Dysfunction Junction | |
| PostMU: Life's a Scream! (Fanfic) / int_820ac3c5 | comment |
Dysfunction Junction: Virtually every character in the story has some pretty bad personal issues: First of all, there's Terry Perry. Bullied relentlessly as a high school student and college freshman, has deep internal depression, is reluctant to give love a chance after getting a cruel prank pulled on him by a girl he used to have a crush on, and ultimately now has to live with the fact that he and his brother are no longer conjoined. Naomi Jackson has it just as bad as him. She has a very obvious crush on Terry, but his hatred of her and the rest of PNK makes it very difficult for Naomi to get through to him. Not to mention the lab accident that causes the Perry brothers to fall into a coma, which severely damaged her mental state to the point where she tries to force herself to stay positive, and it only gets worse when it's implied she may be becoming a Death Seeker. Speaking of PNK, it's also shown that the whole sorority have issues of their own as well, especially when it comes to dating. Laura Sharp suffers from very clear anxiety and atychiphobia (the fear of failure), frequently has panic attacks, and deliberately shuts herself out from the rest of society for reasons she's reluctant to explain. Randall is a socially awkward mess who wonders if he really deserves the popularity he now has after what he did to Oozma Kappa during his time with ROR. Katy is implied to be depressed, such as mentioning to have had brooding emotions in the past and shows hints of anxiety over wanting to become a rap musician. Monnie is very much protective of Randall, due to her crush on him, and gets incredibly jealous whenever she sees Randall talking to Laura. Randall doesn't make it any easier on Monnie due to being Innocently Insensitive most of the time by constantly talking about Laura and her problems. Debbie Gabler has a... rather complicated love life. According to the rest of her sorority, Gabler has a tendency to just pick up random guys who she thinks is "the one" only to have them leave her angry and sometimes even in tears. Debbie also gets incredibly angry when confronted about this, and is implied to have had a bad homelife if Violet's comment about her mother is any indication. Squishy is far more mild compared to everyone else, but he still suffers from anxiety over both his college life and his crush on Laura. | |

| PostMU: Life's a Scream! (Fanfic) / int_83a903f6 | comment |
Stepford Smiler: Naomi becomes a type A by chapter 8 because the guilt over participating in Terry's prank and his attitude towards her thereafter has sent her into serious depression, and that is not even getting into the fact that was in the hospital. She manages to unnerve Nadya and Carrie with a clearly fake and near maniacal looking grin/smile in this state. | |

Nerd Glasses: Randall "Randy" Boggs. However, Mike tells him to lose the glasses early in the movie. He reverts to his original nerdy self, but he haven't worn the glasses since. Sherry Carlton gives Randall back his glasses during the Scare Games's Toxicity Challenge in Chapter 4. | |

If You Ever Do Anything To Hurt Them: Terry Perry, of all Monsters, essentially threatened to murder Johnny Worthington if he ever talk badly about Mike and Sulley again in front of the whole university during a flashback in Chapter 6. | |

Lampshaded Double Entendre: Johnny's actions towards Laura can be considered as this. Nadya's comments to Naomi about other Monster Girls vying for Terry Perry's heart, such as Sonia and Maria, also counts due to the fact that each of them secretly fantasizes about what they would be doing with Terry Perry if he does choose either one of them. | |

Hopeless Suitor | |
| PostMU: Life's a Scream! (Fanfic) / int_863c780a | comment |
Hopeless Suitor: Naomi Jackson fits this Trope whenever she tries to win back Terry Perry's heart, and those tries mostly resulted in even more spectacular failures that she needed someone (like Nadya) to talk to in order not to feel depressed. Terry himself was this back in high school over a girl named Merida Malicestorm. This trope was so obvious that Terri, his less serious brother who loves romance, lampshades the imminent failure of his attempt to woo her. It is very obvious that his heart has been broken since. | |

Jerk Jock: Johnny Worthington III fits this trope nicely. Because scaring is an academic discipline, this creates the unusual scenario in which the jock is also a high-achieving student and proud of it. In general, this seems to be the main trait of the Roar Omega Roar Fraternity. | |

New Rules as the Plot Demands | |
| PostMU: Life's a Scream! (Fanfic) / int_867c3744 | comment |
New Rules as the Plot Demands: Despite most of the information comes from official Pixar sources and books, the story is quite guilty of this trope. The RENEWED Scare Games is bound to be much longer this time due to the number of Fraternities and Sororities taking part in it, which requires the need for more super intense events, for example. The romance between the various fraternity and sorority characters in the film is currently taking the front stage in the recent Chapters, especially between OK and EZ as hinted by the author. The story is also the author's way of proving why Randall Boggs is NOT the villain most fans think he is, but more of a misunderstood and kindred spirit. Also, there's more focus to the background characters, such as the various fraternities and sororities (JOX, EEK, HSS, PNK and ROR), as well as University characters such as Lane Picca, Brock Pearson, Claire Wheeler, and even Archie the Scare Pig. Oozma Kappa probably having to play as "love doctors" for someone in ROR is one of the future plot-lines. There will be more focus on other classes in Monsters University, as well as paying tribute to other Disney and Pixar Movies, such as Brave]] and Frozen (2013)''. The Monsters University Faculty will also receive scene time, such as Madame Foster of the Drama Class. | |

Broken Pedestal | |
| PostMU: Life's a Scream! (Fanfic) / int_868409c | comment |
Broken Pedestal: Roar Omega Roar is this Randy, who becomes so disillusioned with how the RORs aren't the "cool kids" he made them out to be due to them pressuring them into taking part in the prank to humiliate OK and looking scornfully on his baking skills and glasses that he bitterly tells them he no longer wants to be with them when they offer him back his position in their fraternity. The entirety of Monsters University briefly became this for Terry, who was so embittered by the level of scorn and ridicule directed at Oozma Kappa since their founding that he was hoping to convince his frat brothers to transfer out of MU to start over with a clean slate at Fear Tech. Fortunately, it becomes a Subverted Trope when he and his friends attend the apology party thrown at the JOX frat house by the rest of the Greek community, upon which Terry forgives them for all the grief they caused OK and accepts them as his friends (barring the girls of PNK, however). | |

Kudzu Plot: There is a lot that goes on in the story.

The story does make an effort to balance it all out as much as it can, but it can still be pretty easy to lose track of everything. | |

Cliffhanger: Chapter 5 of the Fanfiction. Terri and Terry got into an intense argument with each other over the latter's feelings about Naomi Jackson, and accidentally knocked over the flask of hydrofluoric acid onto a bunsen burner in front of them, causing an explosion to rip through the science lab. And again in Chapter 6. Terry half-wakes up and before he passes out again, he swears he can see a yellow figure lying across from him. Chapter 7 has yet another. Terry half-wakes up again and hears "He didn't make it." The author seems to have gained fondness for ending chapters this way. | |

Laser-Guided Karma | |
| PostMU: Life's a Scream! (Fanfic) / int_90e31482 | comment |
Laser-Guided Karma: Johnny Worthington suffers from this trope occasionally due to his actions in chapters 3 and 6, in which he was put in his place in front of the whole university by Terry Perry with a damning speech when Johnny bad-mouths Mike and Sulley, and Dean Hardscrabble who proceeded to inform him that she's welcoming Mike and Sulley back to MU to help the OK Fraternity with their studies. Then in the following chapter, he gets it again when the rest of the Greek society blatantly ignores him telling them to forgo an apology part for OK because it won't work and telling him indirectly that he's a self-centered jerk. He gets yet another dose of it in Chapter 10, having a dream where his childhood friend Carla leaves him at the mercy of human children because of his self-centered and cruel attitude. This time, it actually seems to have hit its mark. | |

Betty and Veronica: According to the author, Katy (Girl Next Door) and Colette (the exotic and sensual) fit this Trope. It's also the case for the Laura Sharp love situation, with Laura (the Archie), Squishy (the Betty), and Johnny (the Veronica). | |

Big Bad | |
| PostMU: Life's a Scream! (Fanfic) / int_970c790a | comment |
Big Bad: Johnny Worthington III from the Roar Omega Roar (ROR) fraternity is shaping up to be one like in the original movie. Might be averted as Johnny seems to be reluctantly showing a heart as shown in Chapter 7 with his gift to the twins and Chapter 10 sees him starting to wrestle with his morality after a nasty dream called his actions into question. | |

Pardon My Klingon: We have one in the Prologue. And a few others in later Chapters. Katy exclaims "My fins!" when she, the rest of EZ and the remaining Oozma family are told that they can't get in to see the injured twins due to possible infection. The others' reaction ends indicates that this is a legitimate curse. | |

Rage Breaking Point | |
| PostMU: Life's a Scream! (Fanfic) / int_987a235b | comment |
Ragebreaking Point: Terry Perry all the way. The flashback in chapter 6 reveals this frightening side of him, which Johnny Worthington, the monsters of Frat Row, and the entire MU student body witness. We can't exactly blame Terry since Johnny spoke out trash about Mike and Sulley, mainly the former which, as the trope insists, it the breaking point that Terry literally punches down a table and actually scaring everyone. And telling Johnny off and "indirectly" calling the campus out for all the misery Oozma Kappa has suffered since their first year? Even Big Red is scared, and he's apparently famous for HIS temper! | |

Crippling Overspecialization: We have a few. For example, the EEK Sorority sacrificed their holidays and quality time with their families for their training. They may be able to predict each other's maneuvers, but they have alienated their relatives due to their training. There's also HSS, they are so mysterious and silent that no one wants to get close to them, and that may give them privacy, but alienates them from the other Fraternities and Sororities. | |

Tension-Cutting Laughter: Chapter 6, after Javier Rios has been defeated by Mrs. Carlton in a game of Ping Pong, Debbie Gabler invokes this trope by actually laughing openly at Javier after she was unable to stifle her giggles.

Continuity Nod | |

Continuity Nod: Plenty. In the Prologue, after Laura Sharp returned with "Frightening" Frank McCay back to the Monster World, we have a Fillmore Sharp's assistant mentioning about another similar incident happening also in the same week, involving "a little green cyclops monster" and nearly having to call the CDA (Child Detection Agency), which also appeared in Monsters Inc. Chapter 1 has Mike meeting Celia Mae for the very first time at the ice cream shop, which he fell in love with her at first sight. She also gave him her number on the receipt when Mike and Sulley left the shop. This foreshadows them being a dating couple in the original film. Laura Sharp's favorite color is blue, hence why her newly formed Sorority Exceeda Zeta's color is also blue. | |

Filler | |
| PostMU: Life's a Scream! (Fanfic) / int_9de2bf95 | comment |
Filler: Some of the later chapters cross into this territory a bit, such as Chapter 8-and-a-half, which features a flashback about Oozma Kappa hosting an Easter egg hunt at the university, and Chapter 8-and-three-forth, which has Dirk trying to find the guts to talk to his crush, Violet of the EEK sorority, before featuring a flashback of Oozma Kappa celebrating "Ice Kappa Cream Friday" with the other students joining in. To their credit, however, they do help in exploring the characters without diverging too much from the main plot and are a considerably nice change of pace following the more gloomy chapters that preceded them. | |

Carla reminding Johnny that Laura isn't interested in his advances. Terry arguing with his younger brother on their sleeping positions. Johnny looking down on the OK gang when they went to the gym to train. When a Lecturer was telling the class about the dangers of hydrofluoric acid, Theo "Turbo" let out a scoff as a sarcastic remark because he knew all too well what happened to him in the first event of the Scare Games. | |

Chapter 10 sees a series of monsters reacting violently to terrible nightmares before switching to the twins' awakening and then finally showing us how giddy Mrs. Carlton is that the twins are okay and will be coming home soon. | |

Odd Friendship | |
| PostMU: Life's a Scream! (Fanfic) / int_a94eaaa4 | comment |
Odd Friendship: Naomi Jackson (from Python Nu Kappa) and Nadya Petrov (from Eta Hiss Hiss) appeared to have some kind of an Odd Friendship of sorts as of revealed in chapter 2, despite the fact they come from vastly different sororities. However, Nadya did give a friendly reminder to Naomi that they are still competitors in the Scare Games, but does give the least bit of support in regards to Naomi's feelings about Terry Perry (such as mentioning the competition of other monster girls vying for him) and is very invested in helping Naomi with her romantic troubles once it becomes clear they're damaging her health. Nyada and Pyapi the troll also have this. This trope however might be averted in the next few chapters as Chapter 10 reveals that Pyapi might of actually damaged Naomi's emotional state with the nightmares. | |

Disappointed in You: Terri is very disappointed in his brother Terry in some aspects of the latter's personality, especially on how he treats the ladies. Terry, on the other hand, would push it away, knowing their views are completely different and considers himself more "careful" than his little brother. According to Terry, any girl is worth his time, except those from the PNK sorority. Terri showed it briefly in the Perry twin's high school flashback in Chapter 7 in regards to Terry attempting to pursue Merida despite being rather mean towards him. | |

The PNK Sorority sisters can communicate telepathically with each other, and they also possess abilities such as able to see in the dark, breathing fire, and laser eyes. The EEK Sorority sisters worked out so much with each sorority member that they can predict what maneuvers to perform with each other easily. The JOX Fraternity brothers possess incredible super strength and are a incredibly loud and flashy crowd in nature, and they are not above cheating to win any event. The HSS Sorority sisters are very mysterious and some of them are rumored to be masochistic. However no action is taken due to lack of evidence. The ROR Fraternity brothers are proud and act very jerk-ish towards the other Fraternities and Sororities, but being the most famous Fraternity on campus makes them virtually untouchable due to the large amount of influence they have in terms of fame and status. The OK Fraternity are a Ragtag Bunch of Misfits at best, but their diversity and unique abilities more than makes up for their given weaknesses, as seen from the film. The EZ Sorority is the same as the OK Fraternity, but they also possess diversity and interesting skills that will see them become a strong opponent in later segments of the Scare Games. | |

Nice Job Fixing It, Villain | |
| PostMU: Life's a Scream! (Fanfic) / int_acf33d00 | comment |
Nice Job Fixing It, Villain: Johnny Worthington all the way. Chet also counts in Chapter 5. Johnny's bad-mouthing in Chapter 6 caused Terry Perry to give him a damning speech and instead making Mike and Sulley even better in the eyes of the rest of the Fraternities and Sororities in Monsters University, and earned a quiet but firm dressing down from Dean Hardscrabble. Johnny's nearly harming of Randall Boggs caused the lizard monster to meet his soon-to-be Love Interest Monnie Monstre for the very first time, and the OK Fraternity to show their dedication to helping the newest member of their Fraternity. Chet betting against Mrs. Squibbles/Carlton, which resulted in him losing money to Brynn of EEK when he lost the bet due to Mrs. Squbbiles/Carlton winning against Javier Rios in a Ping Pong Match. | |

Oh, Crap! | |
| PostMU: Life's a Scream! (Fanfic) / int_ad1db87c | comment |
Oh, Crap!: We have quite a number. When Fillmore Sharp and Ms. Lawrence found out that Laura has followed the Scarer Frank McKay into the human world. When Mike and Sulley, as well as the OK Fraternity, found out that Laura is Archie the Scare Pig's caretaker after they stole Archie from Fear Tech, Laura's previous school. When Laura found out that the four female Monsters that joined her last-minute sorority are those that she had bumped into on her first day of school. When Naomi realized that Terry Perry is about to give her an incredibly damning "The Reason You Suck" Speech. When the students (Laura especially) realized that the new toxicity challenge is going to use highly explosive poison urchins, which the competitors have to run through in the dark. When Theo "Turbo" realizes that the explosive poison urchin he shot was hit back to him by Randall. When many characters, such as Squishy and Mike, realize that Laura is about to have a panic attack in the various Chapters. When Javier Rios realizes that he is losing to Mrs. Carlton in the Ping Pong match (same goes for the rest of the ROR fraternity). When the students in the Science lab saw that the Perry twins knocked over the flammable fluid onto... a Bunsen burner. When Naomi realizes that the Perry Twins are not among all the monsters that just sustained minor injuries from the explosion in the science building. Her fears that Terry is critically wounded is unfortunately true. In Chapter 10, Terry has a slow one as he realizes that he's no longer sharing a body with his twin. | |

To give examples from the Fanfiction itself, we have Colette and Monroe "Monnie" for the former, Laura, Darla "Dot", Katrina "Katy" for the latter. | |

Fool for Love: Terry Perry SEVERELY avoids this Trope because of the humiliation scene at the ROR Party last Semester, which left him full of angst, bitterness, and more angst, hence resulting in him swearing never to trust girls again. Ironically enough, he was definitely this back in high school. He fell head over heels over a girl who controlled a clique that held him and Terri with contempt. Breaches Tear Jerker territory when this culminates in him ending up getting a VERY good reason to avoid this trope after she broke his heart with a nasty prank. | |

The entirety of Monsters University briefly became this for Terry, who was so embittered by the level of scorn and ridicule directed at Oozma Kappa since their founding that he was hoping to convince his frat brothers to transfer out of MU to start over with a clean slate at Fear Tech. Fortunately, it becomes a Subverted Trope when he and his friends attend the apology party thrown at the JOX frat house by the rest of the Greek community, upon which Terry forgives them for all the grief they caused OK and accepts them as his friends (barring the girls of PNK, however). | |

Character Focus: Several Scenes focus on individual characters from many Fraternities and Sororities in each Chapter. The Prologue focuses on the Sharp Family, and Laura's younger days as a young Monster child. Chapter 1 has scenes focused mainly on Mike and Sulley, as well as the Oozma Kappa Fraternity. Chapter 2 focuses on Laura again, and her would - be Sorority sisters. Chapter 3 has several scenes on the Oozma Kappa Fraternity, and on Laura and her new friends. Chapter 4 has scenes that focus on the members of Oozma Kappa Fraternity with their love Interests from Exceeda Zeta, as well as on the various leaders of the other Fraternities and Sororities. Chapter 5 has character-specific scenes focusing on the JOX Fraternity, such as Dirk and Big Red. There are also scenes on Brynn, Naomi as well as Nadya again. Seen frequently in the background are quite a number of scenes on Those Two Guys Marbus and Theo, as well as Sephira. | |

Chuck Cunningham Syndrome | |

Chuck Cunningham Syndrome: A member of the JOX (Jaws Theta Chi) fraternity, named Baboso Goretega (a blue, slug-like monster), is not present in the fanfiction as he wasn't seen in the movie, and the author refuses to include him in the story because of his mysterious disappearance from the movie even though he was mentioned in the Fearbook and Essential Guide. Can't explain that away now can you, Pixar? | |

Muscles Are Meaningful | |
| PostMU: Life's a Scream! (Fanfic) / int_c4a1d337 | comment |
Muscles Are Meaningful: Laura Sharp of all Monsters demonstrated this ability in Chapter four, as she can practically carry all of her sorority members on her body form alone. Marbus Dagon plays this Trope too, as he is built heavily from top to bottom with thick, hard ropey muscle, and that helped him immensely in any football games he is taking part in. | |

Yank the Dog's Chain | |
| PostMU: Life's a Scream! (Fanfic) / int_c4db6423 | comment |
Yank the Dog's Chain: Implied to have been the case with Terry Perry. In the original film, him and the rest of Oozma Kappa believed that they were finally being accepted by the rest of the Greek row, only to end up being widely humiliated in the form of an incredibly mean prank. However, the yanking comes from the fact that the prank was very similar to one that the Perry twins endured by an Alpha Bitch that Terry was in love with. At that point, it seemed like Terry would finally recover from years of bullying and rejection, only to have those wounds reopened thanks to the ROR Fraternity. | |

Nice Guy: We have a number of Monsters who fit this Trope. The OK Fraternity is this towards Randall as they treat him fairly and with respect. Big Red is quite nice towards the OK Fraternity, inviting them to the JOX party in Chapter five. George Sanderson also fits this Trope as he offers assistance to help Mike and Sulley get hired as mailmen in Monsters Inc. Marbus Dagon is this towards his roommate Theo "Turbo" as he helps the latter in catching up on his two semesters' worth of homework and assignments, as well as coaching him on basic Scaring skills. Nadya is the gender-flip of this Trope, as she assists Naomi in trying to get back to Terry Perry's good side. | |

What the Hell, Hero?: Terry Perry's actions towards Naomi Jackson in Chapter 4, when he delivered a damning "The Reason You Suck" Speech to her, can be counted as this. His brother (albeit understandably) doesn't really seem to let Terry live it down. In chapter 7, Nadya reveals that she lampshaded this as well. Completely inverted in chapter 6 when Terry Perry scolds Johnny for bad-mouthing the OK Fraternity. | |

Call a Smeerp a "Rabbit": M.U.'s rival school, Fear Tech, has a mascot named "Archie the Scare Pig", who is bright orange. Interestingly, he seems to be mix of both pig and goat- he has a pig's snout, tail and squeal, but his horns, shaggy coat and rectangular pupils are all rather goat-like. He can also bark, though it's explicitly stated that it's a trick Laura taught him. | |

Johnny Worthington was obviously admiring Laura Sharp's amazing curves, especially the lower portion of her body, when he saw her in the University gym in chapter 4. He even managed to trick her into bending over in a later chapter so he could get a "nice view." Dirk Pratt finds himself admiring Violet's well-built and voluptuous curves on her body when they were both buying canned drinks from a vending machine in chapter 5. | |

Sugar-and-Ice Personality | |
| PostMU: Life's a Scream! (Fanfic) / int_e24a1629 | comment |
Sugar-and-Ice Personality: Occasionally averted for Javier Rios of the ROR fraternity. He seems like a strong, silent type of character, but he does somehow finds Debbie Gabler's irritation with him somewhat amusing. Romance does this to Terry Perry... especially if Naomi is involved. | |

Call-Forward | |
| PostMU: Life's a Scream! (Fanfic) / int_e3c36782 | comment |
Call-Forward: Being an interquel between the two movies, there are quite a lot of these moments especially the "Scary Feet" moment. When Randall [[spoiler:accidentally vanishes into thin air leaving his OK fraternity sweater when Sulley bumped into a display cabinet in the OK fraternity house, it brings to mind his first meeting with Mike and his vanishing skill in the first film. Randall still has the "squinty eyes" throughout due to his "ditching of the glasses" early in the Monsters University film, which is the precursor to his formerly scary expression in the first film. In Chapter 5, Mike's training program for Oozma Kappa is similar to the training he had done with Sulley in the first film. Roz, the Director of the CDA, makes an appearance in Chapter 6 at CDA High Command reviewing the energy crisis and taking special interest in Monsters Inc, which foreshadows her appearance in the sequel. The Perry Twins had a prank pulled on them back in high school that resembled the humiliation scene during the ROR party in the movie. | |

| PostMU: Life's a Scream! (Fanfic) / int_e46a0062 | comment |
Not So Weak: The Oozma Kappa Fraternity can be easily mistaken for being weak, but their diversity is what makes them unique among the Fraternities and Sororities of Monsters University. Exceeda Zeta is also playing this Trope very well. | |

Bad News in a Good Way: In chapter 6, the Perry twins were revealed to be in stable condition but severely injured by the blast in the Science Labs. Chapter 10 reveals another scenario of this where it's revealed that, for the twins to survive the science building accident, the doctors were forced to separate them completely. Otherwise, they would have both died. | |

Family Drama: We have a variant of this in chapter 5, and it is between siblings. Terri and Terry Perry quarrel with each other in the Science Labs regarding the latter's cold shoulder treatment towards Naomi Jackson. The above drama took on a new twist in Chapter 10: the twins have been separated in the aftermath of their accident and they're not coping well with the fallout (Terry especially). | |

She was right; no one would let him live down the prank she pulled on him and ultimately it got so bad that the Perry twins switched schools to get away from the mocking. | |

Bruiser with a Soft Center: Big Red is portrayed as one, being tough and bold on the outside while soft and tender on the inside. Heck, the whole JOX fraternity qualifies, as they're all really kind and caring Monsters behind their bulky exteriors (George may be an exception since he doesn't seem to be the type of guy who enjoys fighting like the rest of his fraternity). Rosie Levin displays this trait several times throughout the story, such as managing to shed a tear in chapter 1 during Sherry and Don's wedding. | |

Happy Flashback: We have a number, especially in Chapters 1, 5 and most arguably 6. In Chapter 1, we have Mike remembering how he met Celia Mae for the first time and they actually become a dating couple. In Chapter 5, we have Mike also remembering how George Sanderson helped him and Sulley get the mailmen jobs in Monsters Inc. In Chapter 6, we have Mike and Sulley being reunited with Mrs Squibbles and the OK Fraternity, along with their grand welcome back to Monsters University. In Chapter 7, we get one with the entire MU Greek community (sans ROR) holding an apology party for OK... which ultimately works. | |

Beware the Nice Ones | |
| PostMU: Life's a Scream! (Fanfic) / int_fccd06b6 | comment |
Beware the Nice Ones: Terry Perry can be a good-mannered and friendly monster just like his brother, but if you ever insult anyone close to him or someone he respects and cares about very much, be prepared to receive an epic and damning "The Reason You Suck" Speech from him (and depending on the circumstances, like Johnny Worthington in Chapter 6, a beating as well). Laura is perhaps one of the sweetest monsters you'll ever met, but help your soul if you're an arrogant jerk who thinks that other monsters can't be scary. | |

Skyward Scream | |
| PostMU: Life's a Scream! (Fanfic) / int_fd5f23a7 | comment |
Skyward Scream: We have a number of these. Colette does this in chapter 2 when Laura bumped into her and ruined her makeup. Colette does it again in chapter 5 when Katy brought a stinging urchin to the OK frat house. | |

Will They or Won't They? | |
| PostMU: Life's a Scream! (Fanfic) / int_fdc1e848 | comment |
Will They or Won't They?: Only time and later chapters will tell if and most importantly, who Terry Perry will choose as his significant other in the story. So far, we readers know of the following Monster Girls: Naomi Jackson, Sonia Lewis and Maria Garcia, but there has been hints here and there that there could be many more. | |

Beauty Is Never Tarnished | |
| PostMU: Life's a Scream! (Fanfic) / int_fe614133 | comment |
Beauty Is Never Tarnished: Sadly averted for some scenes in the story. Averted for Chapter 4's Toxicity Challenge of the Scare Games, due to the New and Improved EXPLOSIVE Toxic Urchins. | |

Innocently Insensitive | |
| PostMU: Life's a Scream! (Fanfic) / int_ff17ccf1 | comment |
Monnie is very much protective of Randall, due to her crush on him, and gets incredibly jealous whenever she sees Randall talking to Laura. Randall doesn't make it any easier on Monnie due to being Innocently Insensitive most of the time by constantly talking about Laura and her problems. | |
