Arbitrary Skepticism | |
SMG 4 Reunited (Fanfic) / int_13eea985 | comment |
Arbitrary Skepticism: SMG4 claims that the Watermelon Man is a myth like Santa Claus. Mario points out that they’ve met Santa before. SMG4 then claims that watermelons aren’t alive. Melony clears her throat. SMG4 then admits that the Watermelon Man might be real. | |

Foreshadowing: Lamp Shaded by SMG3, who notes that the livestream of SMG4 that started after MAR10 Day getting noticeably darker is obvious foreshadowing. FM and X both show that they don’t want SMG4 to go to Bloopersvillie. It later turns out that the town has banned all OCs, of which SMG4 counts as. | |

Darker and Edgier | |
SMG 4 Reunited (Fanfic) / int_14beeefd | comment |
Darker and Edgier: Zig-Zagged. The story does have several goofy and lighthearted chapters, but the more serious episodes are both a lot darker and have longer lasting consequences beyond that of canon, such as SMG4’s strained relationships following IGBP and Meggy’s Sanity Slippage after the events of Western Spaghetti, the consequences of which can pop up even during lighthearted episodes. | |

Adapted Out | |
SMG 4 Reunited (Fanfic) / int_33d5b7f2 | comment |
Adapted Out: My Roommate Mario doesn't happen due to Mario's friendship with SMG4 being strained due to his actions from MAR10 Day. Instead, Luigi offers SMG4 his RV right off the bat. The bidding war for the Showgrounds is taken out, Word of God explaining that they thought it didn't make sense due to SMG4 having already paid for the land. The Very Safe and Legal SMG4 Show is replaced with SMG4 Gets a Job, due to the fact that SMG4 wants to get the money for the castle by himself due to it being his fault for Peach’s Castle’s destruction in the first place. During WOTFI 2023, none of the main cast, save for Mario, appear as workers and guests of Cassino Paisano, instead being replaced by the Dark Force and other Mario recolors. | |

Adaptational Sympathy: Wern. He didn’t just lose Splatfest, his teammates died in the aftermath of Anime Island, having too much of their ink sucked out of them. He didn’t participate in Splatfest afterwards because of his grief, but people still called him a quitter and he lost everything. | |

Fantastic Racism: Bloopersville is revealed to have a new law that bans all OCs from entering.

It's All My Fault: SMG4 has a depressive episode, where he blames himself for the recent traumatic incidents, like IGBP and Western Spaghetti. While his friends are able to help get him out of his funk, it’s later revealed that he is actually somewhat responsible as he signed a contract when he purchased the Totally Normal Keyboard and he knows Puzzles has been manipulating things, but he can't tell anyone. | |

SMG3 also admits that SLG4 was a toxic friend. Moreover, Shadow decides that SLG4 still caring for SMG3 despite him being long since redeemed means he can’t be the face of their operations and boots him from his group. | |

Adaptational Angst Upgrade | |
SMG 4 Reunited (Fanfic) / int_730d3664 | comment |
Adaptational Angst Upgrade: During the events of It's Gotta Be Perfect, Melony gets trapped by the tentacles surrounding the castle and her friends aren't able to free her before the castle goes down, causing her to be trapped alongside Peach. Western Spaghetti puts Meggy through the wringer. First, when she confronts Wren the first time, she learns that she isn't actually the original Inkling Meggy turned human, but a clone made by the Inkweaver with her memories. Then he reveals that Desti knew the entire time and hid it from her, along with having other secrets about herself. Then, rather than simply killing her over and over again, Wern torments her with her friends and family, from mind controlling them into verbally tearing her down for being a clone to personally killing them in front of her. It's enough that Meggy completely breaks and agrees to go along with what Wren has planned for her. Worse, when the group escapes the simulation, Meggy ends up in a coma. When she comes out, she's been driven to such insanity that she tries to assassinate Desti. Then she accidentally shoots Tari in the process, which snaps her out of it just enough that she's unable to tell if she's still in the simulation or reality, and she runs off and lives on the streets for weeks until her friends find her. One-Shot Wren is also given a bit of this in his backstory. Rather than a simple decline in fame after losing Splatfest, he teammates died in the aftermath of Anime Island during the Anime Arc because they lost too much ink. He didn't participate in Splatfest afterwards due to his grief, only to be called a quitter for doing so and losing everything else. Once she's freed from the pit, Melony starts having issues with her Deity Powers, as the Deity who gave them to her friends her to be wasting her abilities. This is shown of several occasions to be causing her distress. Aside from how his actions leading up to and during IGBP strained his relationships with his friends, it's eventually revealed that SMG4 signed a contract when purchasing the Totally Normal Keyboard and now belongs to Puzzles. | |

Adaptational Badass: Fishy Boopkins, often incapable of doing any fighting in canon, has a Sonic Scream left unused after its debut episode in canon, which he occasionally uses to fight back here. During the events of Western Spaghetti, Wren learns of Tari’s hacking of his simulation and tracks her down. Tari uses her digital powers to fight back, even summoning digital recreations of Deity Melony and Ax0l, and ultimately is the one to beat Wren. SMG3 and SMG4 use their meme power far more often and to a greater degree than canon. For example, during WOTFI 2023, trying to use the power of memes summoned a penguin from Club Penguin that lasted only a few seconds. Here when they use the power of memes, they summon their own mech. | |

Down Played with Meggy. Following the events of Western Spaghetti, she ends up mentally breaking from the trauma and ultimately returns to her parents’ home for her recovery, as her friends might be triggers of the incident. However, she does still make the occasional appearance before eventually returning to the cast fully. | |

SMG 4 Reunited (Fanfic) / int_82a64c4b | comment |
Adaptational Nice Guy: Several points where characters act rude to one another are cut and in general the cast are nicer to one another. Mario in particular, while still dumb, has plenty of moments of kindness compared to canon. Most notably, during WOTFI 2023 several of the crueler actions Mario took are given to other characters and he is much less willing to cause harm, such as being against torturing SMG3 in order to learn where the notebook's key is, and his motivations are ultimately revealed to be to get SMG4 to listen to him about what a jerk he's been. When SMG4 apologizes and reassures him of their friendship, Mario joins the group to get back the notebook. | |

Broken Pedestal: Mario loses some of his respect for SMG4 after the events of MAR10 Day, deciding to make Meggy his best friend instead. And while Mario does forgive SMG4 for his actions, it’s made clear in later episodes that he no longer considers SMG4 to be his best friend. Bob, after the events of IGBP, outright says he can’t believe he once looked up to SMG4, as his actions caused Melony to get trapped in the demonic pit. | |

Stating the Simple Solution | |
SMG 4 Reunited (Fanfic) / int_86f4f393 | comment |
Stating the Simple Solution: As SMG3 points out, Marty and Mario could have just asked for his pizza recipe rather than stealing his notebook filled with a bunch of private information. He outright says he would be willing to share the recipe, provided he’s given payment for it. | |

Back from the Dead | |
SMG 4 Reunited (Fanfic) / int_8967e17f | comment |
Back from the Dead: The DMCA barrier reverts Nintendo I Ps back to their pre-SMG4 state, including bringing back people from the dead if they were killed during that time, but it only lasts as long as the barrier remains. Desti and Francis are both brought back this way. And while Francis is killed again by Desti and Meggy, Desti is able to remain alive thanks to Miyamoto changing her into a human via an IP change contract. | |

SMG 4 Reunited (Fanfic) / int_96fbeaf | comment |
There Are No Therapists: Sub Verted. SMG3 still has his license and is still actively practicing, even offering to give Desti some free sessions in order to help her with the trauma of her death. Meggy also admits she and Melony started getting professional help after they lost Axol. Similarly, after the traumatic experience she went through during Western Spaghetti, Meggy ultimately has to leave the cast to heal mentally, with SMG3 explicitly helping her recover. | |

My God, What Have I Done?: While trying to assassinate Desti thanks to mentally breaking during the events of Western Spaghetti, Meggy accidentally shoots Tari. Once she truly processes what she did, Meggy has this reaction and runs away. | |

SMG 4 Reunited (Fanfic) / int_a65288e2 | comment |
Ascended Extra: In general, a lot of characters who have mostly been unused in canon have a far greater presence in this story. Desti joins the main cast after being brought Back from the Dead. The various Mario Recolors, especially FM and X, ultimately have a larger role and more consistent appearances. The Dark Force, a group of villainous recolors from earlier SMG4 episodes, act as the major threat during WOTFI 2023. | |

SMG 4 Reunited (Fanfic) / int_b4a6ae4c | comment |
Everyone Has Standards: Even Mario is able to see that stabbing an octopus in front of Desti was a cruel move, as it triggered her PTSD from her death. Desti is not pleased that Mario and SMG4 intentionally decided to make SMG3 do something embarrassing on stream that ultimately didn’t help him stop the Endless Stream like they promised. Mario, despite making fun of SMG3 and SMG4 for what happened at the end of SnowTrapped, doesn’t actually want them to do it again (or see them doing it) when he learns they’re trapped in an elevator. | |

SMG 4 Reunited (Fanfic) / int_b8e3f20a | comment |
Demoted to Extra: Some chapters have characters who were the main focus of the respective episode being given far lesser roles for one reason or another. For example, SMG3 doesn’t go to Western Spaghetti because he needs to watch over the Internet Graveyard and only appears as the group is about to leave on their vacation. | |

Clone Angst: After learning that she’s actually a clone of her Inkling self, Meggy ends up falling into this, believing that her friends will only see her as an imposter. Of course, this was somewhat invoked by Wren, who crafted his simulations to have her friends explicitly tell her such. | |

Adaptation Origin Connection: The Teletubbies that attacked SMG4 during Our New Home are revealed to be the same ones that attacked the crew during The Mario Purge. The Luigi and MX from Every Luigi is Personalized are revealed to be caused by the Nightmare Stone that first appeared in Crystal Funhouse back in 2011. Later on, that same crystal is used by Wern to power his simulation. One-Shot Wren’s Start of Darkness started here because of the Anime Island Incident, as all of his teammates died sometime afterwards due to having too much their ink sucked out of them. The laptop Saiko summoned Kaizo from is revealed to have been given to her by PuzzleVision. | |

Adaptational Context Change | |
SMG 4 Reunited (Fanfic) / int_f33ff01c | comment |
Adaptational Context Change: In canon, the updated redesigns from IGBP and beyond are all from either SMG3 or SMG4 explicitly changing them. Here, their models changing is caused by the characters being submerged in the demonic goop that was created by the Totally Normal Keyboard. The road trip in A Happy Little Road Trip is explicitly stated here to be a way for SMG4 to apologize to Mario, Meggy, Desti, and SMG3 for his actions during IGBP. In Western Spaghetti, Meggy specifically seeks out One-Shot Wren because she hopes that he will help her convince her brother of her identity after her transformation from Inkling to human. Additionally, One-Shot Wern is said to have simply fallen off after he lost Splatfest. Here, he was considered a quitter for not competing Splatfest due to his grief over his teammates, who died in the aftermath of Anime Island. The reward for moving Marty so the castle can continue construction is changed from being ownership of the castle to money. The same chapter, it's Mario, not SMG4 who has the Jerkass Realization and apologizes to Marty, offering up partial ownership of the pizza shop in order to get him to let construction finally finish. The trip into the demonic pit that happened in Let’s Go Visit Peach is explicitly a rescue mission for both Peach and Melony, while in canon it was just to get a Star for the castle. In canon, the Watermelon Man attacked SMG4 and company to invite them to Melony’s birthday party (and turn their butt cheeks into watermelons). Here, he sought out the group in order to find Melony, as they were the last people she (as a watermelon) were seen with, and Melony doesn’t learn he’s her father until he explains as such upon realizing who she is. In WOTFI 2023, Mario joined up with Marty because he wanted to steal SMG3’s Club Penguin skin. Here, it’s because Mario felt like he was being pushed to the side by SMG4 and stole SMG3’s notebook because he thought it was one of the only ways to make SMG4 listen to him. | |
