However, as time progresses, an elaborate plot unravels, involving a group of talented eccentrics in a complicated game where the stakes might just be the fate of the world.Also, there are twins. Twins and sexy blondes with dark, mysterious pasts and schizophrenia. Well, specifically MPD. | |

Asskicking Leads to Leadership | |
| Ashes and Dust / int_1cc527d7 | comment |
Asskicking Leads to Leadership: Eleanor is a prominent example of this trope. Aside from being a General, she can also kill you rather brutally. Just look at the fight between her and Azar! Not only does she manage to hold her own against this crazy lady, she also wins the fight where most others would have perished long ago. Hope Robinson is an excellent example as well. Shasta does ask her to ascend to power as the Donna of the Grey Zone, but Hope could have kicked his ass, even if Shasta is her son. | |

With Great Power Comes Great Insanity | |
| Ashes and Dust / int_208c4494 | comment |
With Great Power Comes Great Insanity: Azar is a good example of this, due to her position as second-in-command of Kuroraikou, leading to her decimation of the Lsyykra due to the force she had behind her. Charles/Shasta fits too because Charles was so clever, he ended up creating another personality for himself to take the pain of his sacrifices to ascend in standing in the Grey Zone. | |

Manipulative Bastard: Eleanor's brother, Eleanor herself to some degrees, and of course Azar. Shasta tried to save Alec's life just so he could manipulate Kira, and is also using Matt in his schemes. A lot of characters in the story fit this trope really well. | |

Troubling Unchildlike Behavior: In the beginning of AtA, Emery thinks that sticking a scissor into someone's chest just puts them to sleep, and likes to sing nursery rhymes that are about death and destruction. Kira counts as well. At twelve years old, he ascends the throne and promptly begins to abuse his power, having a girl killed with no shown feelings of horror. | |

Took a Level in Badass | |
| Ashes and Dust / int_9bcd82c0 | comment |
Took a Level in Badass: By chapter 25 of Dust to Dust, we see Alec brutally murder several rioters trying to assassinate Kira. Not to mention that he killed a maid who tried to assassinate Kira as well, despite not having been able to "even poke one in the arm, much less hit one." Matthew Hunter has not only taken one level in badass, he has taken several. Let's consider the fact that he was a scrawny, pale little fifteen-year-old thing at the beginning of AtA, and now is tan, pierced, and muscled. Aside from physical characteristics, Mattykins also stands up to his abusive father where he hadn't the courage to do so before. | |

Red Eyes, Take Warning: Dearingest, darlingest Emery, with one red eye. He ends up killing several people, becoming Azar's pet, killing his own sister, and becoming a false prophet to bring Kira down. Earl Victor Springer (Emery's father) also has one red eye, and he has Dissociative Identity Disorder, with several different personalities in his body, one of which raped Luxiette. | |

Fate Worse than Death | |
| Ashes and Dust / int_b1346878 | comment |
Fate Worse than Death: Getting told to kill yourself after killing your brother by your own mother must count. Or just Alec's existence in general. Even Word of God says that torturing him is great fun. I think everybody's forgotten about poor Sibyl. She lived for over a hundred years in a body that won't die because she wants to be remembered by somebody. What does that get her? She is cornered by a couple men in an alley in a part of town she doesn't know, raped, and tortured. She finally dies, but the culprits mangle her body and obliterate her face. | |

Running Gag | |
| Ashes and Dust / int_f9f2c33 | comment |
Running Gag: Whores duh orves. Alec; after tripping over chickens and having the twins arrange them to spell "fail", he hates chicken for the rest of the novel. | |

Beware the Nice Ones: Luxiette. You'd never guess such a nice, quiet girl would own a saw and know how to use it. | |

Dark and Troubled Past | |
| Ashes and Dust / int_fed93e1b | comment |
Dark and Troubled Past: Most of the characters have had one of these. For example, Shasta's had to sleep his way to the top of the Grey Zone food chain. Matthew's alcoholic father has been abusing him for years. Lilael was found abandoned as a child. Xerxes and Xylander were almost killed by the same fire that consumed their home and their parents, started by Azar. Alec was responsible for the death of his own brother. | |

Shown Their Work | |
| Ashes and Dust / int_ffad4e9f | comment |
Shown Their Work: Several times through both stories, the author alludes to specific events of world history (WWI). Also, where Shasta creates flash powder in the Grey Zone, all of those chemicals can make the actual flash powder. | |
