Virgin Sacrifice | |
| Shadowchasers: Ascension (Fanfic) / int_174b85df | comment |
Virgin Sacrifice: Jalie’s plan for the captured Red Feather and Penelope. Technically, he wanted to give them as gifts to a lustful demon lord named Graz’zt, clearly a Fate Worse than Death. Since Rule-Of-Three always does things in threes and they were unable to find a third girl to capture, they decide to use Lorelei as the third sacrifice. Rule-Of-Three ruefully notes that Graz'zt will be disappointed because while Lorelei is beautiful, she is no virgin. All three girls are rescued in time. | |

Deal with the Devil | |
| Shadowchasers: Ascension (Fanfic) / int_1fc8335e | comment |
Deal with the Devil: Both Ulysses Tiberius and Lorelei DeLuc agree to work for Jalie, certain that they have nothing left to lose. As it turns out they do, and both turn against him when they learn of his true plan, willing to die for their true master (Tharizdun) rather than live serving someone else. Another, averted example: When Jalie defeats Ophelia and Jeb and takes them prisoner, he offers Dante an actual Faustian Pact, promising to release his two partners if he signs it. Dante refuses, assuming - rightfully - that Jalie is offering it to him because he is unsure of his ability to win a third duel in a row. | |

Crapsack World | |
| Shadowchasers: Ascension (Fanfic) / int_21d70919 | comment |
Crapsack World: Hell, of course. A lot about it is revealed in the fic, even though none of the story takes place there; basically, the society is one where betraying your comrades and superiors to get ahead is not only common, but encouraged. Apparently, every devil with at least average intelligence is a successful Starscream (to use the Trope) or has the potential to be one. | |

| Shadowchasers: Ascension (Fanfic) / int_237404cc | comment |
Ironic Echo: Way back in Power Primordial, Shichiro imagines what might happen if someone would ever combine the Djinns of Ritual monsters with Demise, King of Armageddon and shudders at the thought. Fast forward to this fic, and Ophelia (who is one of the protagonists though) does exactly that. | |

Saw "Star Wars" Twenty-Seven Times | |
| Shadowchasers: Ascension (Fanfic) / int_24ddbe2b | comment |
Saw "Star Wars" 27 Times: In Ascension, the Boston team and Karen watch Ophelia's favorite movie, Beetlejuice in one chapter, with Ophelia commenting that she's seen it 18 times. (This may be a Shout-Out to the actual movie; there is a famous gag in the film where the title character says he's seen The Exorcist 167 times "and it keeps getting funnier every time I see it!") | |

Divine Intervention | |
| Shadowchasers: Ascension (Fanfic) / int_2f57a4cb | comment |
Divine Intervention: When Odin, Thor, and Loki give Dante a deck with copies of their cards in order for him to defeat Jalie. The lesson to be learned from this battle (which Jalie clearly refuses to learn) is one that is repeated several times over the course of the fic: Jalie is not even close to being in the same league as the beings he is trying to challenge, and he is a fool for trying to do so. | |

Even Evil Has Standards | |
| Shadowchasers: Ascension (Fanfic) / int_319e4a2f | comment |
Even Evil Has Standards: It seems that there are even some things that Doomdreamers find abhorent. While Tiberius is in prison, another prisoner implies that he burned books, and he angrily replied that he never did that, saying that he was "no Nazi". It is also heavily implied that even the most powerful of Demon Lords And Arch Devils will not sit still and let the threat of Tharizdun's escape go unchallenged. | |

Steal the Surroundings | |
| Shadowchasers: Ascension (Fanfic) / int_403f1a36 | comment |
Steal the Surroundings: After his duel with Unity-of-Rings, Jalie attempts to steal the Key to Tharizdun's Prison by having a massive airship rip the temple it is in out of the ground and carry it to his base. The plan hits a snag when the airship malfunctions and self-destructs, making the temple crash and shatter in the middle of nowhere. | |

Always Female | |
| Shadowchasers: Ascension (Fanfic) / int_44b834a0 | comment |
Always Female: Inverted, in this fic, where we find out that gorgons, commonly depicted as a female-only monster in the media, do indeed have males. They are simply incredibly rare. They do not have the snakes for hair or the ability to turn people to stone that the females do, but have very lethal venom. | |

You Have Failed Me | |
| Shadowchasers: Ascension (Fanfic) / int_474e3977 | comment |
You Have Failed Me: Jalie punishes Panik horribly for his failure, turning him in a bestial demon called Nitemare. Oddly enough, this is hardly a punishment, as it makes him far stronger than he ever was as a human. He is last seen falling off of a flying dirigible, but Dante doubts that even that could have killed him. | |

Red Pill, Blue Pill | |
| Shadowchasers: Ascension (Fanfic) / int_4b1247b8 | comment |
Red Pill, Blue Pill: According to Jalal, when he first set foot in America during 1789 to expand the Shadowchasers' operation, he met Unity-of-Rings - who offered him the task of keeping the knowledge of the location of one of the pieces of the key to Tharizdun's prison. If Jalal refused, he would leave without any recollection of the knowledge and if he accepted, he would be promised the glories of heaven. Seeing that inhabitants of the Upper Plane rarely make such requests to mortals and saw it as a sign that he saw promise in his organization, Jalal agreed. | |

Crazy-Prepared | |
| Shadowchasers: Ascension (Fanfic) / int_50f66629 | comment |
Crazy-Prepared: Dante. He has six decks, one of each attribute. Jalie also has bouts of this. To protect his Hellfire Sentinel's emergency off switch, he placed a brimstone golem with the soul of rival devil Belphagon in it. However, Belphagon's deck is rigged: Once it detects what deck his opponent is using, he magically changes his deck into the perfect counter deck. | |

Trick-and-Follow Ploy | |
| Shadowchasers: Ascension (Fanfic) / int_514d1380 | comment |
Trick-and-Follow Ploy: Actually, this is Baron Dybbuk's idea of a backup plan after the heroes find Red Feather and Penelope and Rule-of-Three is sent packing; he convinces Jalie not to interfere with their rescue mission so he can plant a tiny golem-like construct the size of a fly on Ophelia, hoping Jalal will feel a need to check on Tabjari and take the Boston team along. Jalie threatens Dybbuk with a very painful punishment if it doesn't work, but it does. | |

Enemy Mine | |
| Shadowchasers: Ascension (Fanfic) / int_5989e3b6 | comment |
Enemy Mine: Two instances happen throughout the fic: First Lorelei is willing to tell the Shadowchasers everything she knows about Jalie's plans because the plans involved killing Tharizdun and gaining his power for himself. Lorelei only did so because her loyalty was to Tharizdun and Tharizdun alone. Towards the end of the fic, Jalie cooperates with Jalal and the Boston Shadowchasers in order to destroys his Hellfire Sentinel after it goes beyond his control. On the other hand, Jalie deliberately hides the fact that Dante will have no way of escaping the Hellfire Sentinel before it explodes in order to get rid of two threats in one go. Unfortunately for him, Dante survives. | |

Gargle Blaster | |
| Shadowchasers: Ascension (Fanfic) / int_67edaf78 | comment |
Gargle Blaster: It is revealed that devils cannot become drunk by drinking regular alcohol, and thus have several incredible potent beverages that they use to become intoxicated. These drinks tend to far more potent to humans. Gughalaki is one example, which is like strong ale to them, and high-ranking devils like Jalie drink Demon's Blood. | |

| Shadowchasers: Ascension (Fanfic) / int_725583e8 | comment |
Good Feels Good: In one chapter, this Trope is invoked where a criminal whom Ophelia has met before actually an infernal homunculus taunts her about her shadar-kai mother, who's in prison for a rather reckless stunt which, sadly, appears shadar-kai do somewhat often. He can't help but ask her if that sort of urge is In the Blood and she ever feels such a temptation. All Ophelia has to do is point to the mark on her cheek that identifies her as a Shadowchaser and tell him, "Of course it does. Why do you think I worked so hard to get this?” | |

Noble Demon | |
| Shadowchasers: Ascension (Fanfic) / int_7360a6b6 | comment |
Noble Demon: Rule-of-Three may be a literal example of this - sort of. He isn't very honorable (he tries to convince Lorelei to help him cheat and has no intention of keeping his word to Ophelia) but he is very polite, even to Red Feather and Penelope while acting as their jailer. He even asks Ophelia to leave before making any threats, rather than demanding it. Rule-of-Three himself claims that other demons regard him as very eccentric. | |

Better the Devil You Know | |
| Shadowchasers: Ascension (Fanfic) / int_76cde6e | comment |
Better the Devil You Know: Two rather literal examples, both explained in this fic: The reason the gods locked Tarizdun up instead of killing him, despite the danger he posed, was because he was a pawn of the Great Old Ones, who were worse, and they would have regained the power they invested in him if he had died. To this day, Tharizdun acts as a "cosmic lynchpin" to prevent an even more destructive force. The Devil himself qualifies, according to Unity-Of-Rings. As bad as Lucifer is, he is actually the best choice for Overlord of Hell. Despite being the tempter of mortals and a power of Evil, he is still a power of Law, and under his rule, the devils wage the Blood War against the demons of the Abyss. If he was replaced by someone who didn't care to do this, such as Mephistopheles, the demons' population would grow to unearthly numbers, they would slaughter the devils, then destroy the upper planes, then the mortal worlds, and once they ran out of places to destroy, would turn on themselves, and that would be the end of everything. | |

Hero-Worshipper: Karen Taft idolizes the Shadowchasers and wishes to join them when she gets older. As a result she tends to get herself involved in various dangerous situations in hopes of proving herself much to the Boston Shadowchasers' (especially Ophelia's) dismay. She eventually proves herself later on by defeating Dybbuk in a duel, which results in Center-Of-All giving the Boston Shadowchasers the location of Jalie's fortress. At the end of the fic, Dante even says that Jalal might have no other choice but to let her join when she's eighteen otherwise a group that doesn't like them might try to recruit her instead. | |

Faux Affably Evil | |
| Shadowchasers: Ascension (Fanfic) / int_95b7c400 | comment |
Faux Affably Evil: Malanus, one of Jalie's advisors initially acts nice and polite to Ophelia during their duel, but it is only a facade and he later drops the act once Ophelia starts getting the upper hand. | |

Moral Guardians | |
| Shadowchasers: Ascension (Fanfic) / int_96e5792c | comment |
Another one aimed at Moral Guardians is added when Ophelia asks Karen if her parents approve of the stuff she watches of television. Karen relates how her mother once subscribed to a service offered by her satellite system that was better than a v-chip, because parents would have to call in using a phone service before any program of questionable nature could be viewed. However, when her mother found that this service blocked her soap operas, she threw a fit and cussed out some "poor guy on the phone" before she canceled the service. | |

Stockholm Syndrome | |
| Shadowchasers: Ascension (Fanfic) / int_a5f998ea | comment |
Stockholm Syndrome: Zigzagged with Tiberius and Lorelei. They're smart enough to realize that Dybbuk is holding them as prisoners in all but name, and they don't exactly like it, but they consider it a better situation that what they were in before. | |

Rule of Three | |
| Shadowchasers: Ascension (Fanfic) / int_a6cda066 | comment |
Rule of Three: Rule-Of-Three, naturally. The price for his services changes, but the one thing that remains constant is that he asks for three things. Unity of Rings, Center of All, and Rule-of-Three are each the extremes of their allignments (Unity of Rings being Lawful Good, Center of All being True Neutral, and Rule-of-Three being Chaotic Evil). The Outcast Devil Deck can only be used safely at the maximum of three times a week. Any more would have serious repercussions; Jalie's Co-Dragons ominously mention the one devil who ignored this safety tip; apparently, his fate was not pleasant. | |

Stupid Evil | |
| Shadowchasers: Ascension (Fanfic) / int_affd30b0 | comment |
Stupid Evil: Jalie. His plans usually hit a roadblock because he refuses to understand just how powerful gods tend to be. He also put his worst enemy in charge of guarding something (the Hellfire Sentinel) very important. Jeb and Ophelia actually lampshade this stupid line of thought. | |

Horny Devils | |
| Shadowchasers: Ascension (Fanfic) / int_b161eb6c | comment |
Horny Devils: Dante actually encounters two of these throughout the course of the fic. The first is Castalla an erinyes who is sent as part of a three-devil strike force by Jalie Squarefoot. Her attempts to charm Dante are largely ineffective, but her dueling skills are much better, mainly because she uses The Wicked Avatar. Dante later meets Castalla's mother, a far more powerful temptress named Novolar who is one of Jalie's most trusted servants. Her attempt to seduce him nearly succeeds, but he manages to realize what is happening before it is too late. One of Jalie's Outcast Devils, Malarea has the ability to "seduce" the opponent's monster to joining her side of the field. She attacks directly by kissing the opponent square on the lips. | |

Take That! | |
| Shadowchasers: Ascension (Fanfic) / int_b53077b3 | comment |
Take That!: When Lorelei says that she assumed Red Feather (an environmentalist) was a member of PETA, Red Feather is outraged and says PETA members are crazy fanatics. Later on, Unity-of-Rings predicts that when the Numbers truly become a threat, the powers that be will choose a champion to oppose them. He then gets a vision of Yuma and Shark's first duel in Yu Gi Oh Zexal. His responce? "The powers that be have a strange sense of humor." Another one aimed at Moral Guardians is added when Ophelia asks Karen if her parents approve of the stuff she watches of television. Karen relates how her mother once subscribed to a service offered by her satellite system that was better than a v-chip, because parents would have to call in using a phone service before any program of questionable nature could be viewed.

What If?: Xon, one of Jalie's Co-Dragons, can perceive these Alternate Universes, and being an abomination allied with the forces of Hell, he specializes in studying ones that have bad outcomes. When he confronts Jeb, he cajoles him by explaining that a scenario where Jalal's father had survived the attempt on his life would actually have caused the world to become a Crapsack World. | |

To Serve Man: Devils don't have to eat at all but they can if they desire, and at least some are not averse to eating human flesh; the assassin devil Nin casually incorporates part of a victim's flesh into a sandwich that she makes at a deli while waiting for Jeb. | |

Shout-Out | |
| Shadowchasers: Ascension (Fanfic) / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: There is a reference to The Empire Strikes Back sometime near the climax of the fic. [[spoiler: At the end of one chapter, when it is obvious that the Shadowchasers are on the way, Baron Dybbuk leaves to apologize to Jalie. At the beginning of the next chapter, Jalie strangles him to death, and then says, nonchalantly, "Apology accepted, Baron Dybbuk." Later on during the Triangle Duel between Jeb, Ophelia and Jalie, Jalal calls Jalie's Temporal Machine Gods "a bunch of creepy Daleks". | |
