Fan of the Past | |
| Man Of My Dreams / int_1e580ede | comment |
Fan of the Past: Marie loves to educate herself about the Napoleonic Age and hoards a whole collection of stuff about him, just for fun. Same goes for Tristan, who is a present-day military historian specializing in the Napoleonic Age in his research and had just habilitated at Sorbonne University in Paris when he had the accident that sent him into his coma. | |

Winter Warfare | |
| Man Of My Dreams / int_1f6a62cc | comment |
Winter Warfare: Seen at the Battle of Austerlitz. Justified since it is the 2nd December. Later, defied. In 1812, Marie meets Tristan to her own surprise in Paris instead of Russia, where Napoleon is getting his ass handed by winter at the moment. Tristan explains that he talked at least himself out of the Russia Campaign out of the knowledge how it will end – and has to end for the sake of not messing up history. | |

Time-Traveler's Baby: In the end of the story, Marie assumes to have gotten pregnant from Napoleon. They make arrangements for the child, and Tristan proves to be okay with it. In the epilogue, their son Charles is old enough to have been conceived during Marie’s time travel dreams, implying him to be this. | |

Marie goes along with it. | |

Historical Hero Upgrade | |
| Man Of My Dreams / int_3e8d9cd3 | comment |
Historical Hero Upgrade: Averted for Napoleon, who has all flaws of the real one. A bad temper and a big ego to begin with and it only gets worse. Marie even states that she only loves the young Napoleon she met in the beginning, not Emperor Napoleon I, who is a blood-thirsty egomaniac in her opinion. | |

Marry for Love | |
| Man Of My Dreams / int_487b1e5b | comment |
Marry for Love is a rare, special and a little odd thing. Marriages are largely about material possessions and status, what’s the reason why Napoleon disproves his brother Lucien’s decision regarding a wife. | |

| Man Of My Dreams / int_590eb583 | comment |
Domestic Abuse: Marie’s ex-partner Stefan was an emotionally abusive Hypocrite who left her alone most of the time, didn’t care for or even tolerated her interests and only ever told her that he loved her when he was drunk. | |

Bungled Suicide: Marie meets a very sick Napoleon in 1814. He just abdicated and tried to swallow poison, what just gave him a terrible stomachache since it was long over the spoiling date. | |

Psychic Link: Marie and Tristan always get a strange, tingling feeling with each other when they touch, like if something would be linking them with each other. It is there because they are both time travelers from 2010. | |

Weaker in the Real World | |
| Man Of My Dreams / int_9e8487d2 | comment |
Weaker in the Real World: Downplayed. When Marie is dreaming, she speaks French on native speaker level, appears in situation-fitting clothing immediately and can skip time, but without the ability to control when. While she is also able to speak some French in the real world, her clothing isn’t immediately appropriate and the time-skipping of course doesn’t happen. | |

Awesome Moment of Crowning: Marie comes to Napoleon’s coronation in a dream and finds a fitting dress prepared for herself. She witnesses the event in Notre-Dame, and Napoleon raises the crown a little into her direction, crowning her his Empress in his heart. Marie blushes. | |

Deliberate Values Dissonance | |
| Man Of My Dreams / int_aabe2fb | comment |
Deliberate Values Dissonance: Shown several times. Kissing in public is frowned upon in the late 18th century. You also usually don’t go fast, even when you really want it. The fact that Marie is very fast with kissing him makes Napoleon think that she is a prostitute. Marry for Love is a rare, special and a little odd thing. Marriages are largely about material possessions and status, what’s the reason why Napoleon disproves his brother Lucien’s decision regarding a wife. Marital Rape License is very much in effect. Napoleon believes to have the right to have sex with Marie whenever he wants, since she gave her consent in his opinion when they got married. | |

| Man Of My Dreams / int_d5f35258 | comment |
Adventures in Comaland: The reason for Tristan Beriere being around in the Napoleonic Age, and for Marie’s and his strange Psychic Link with each other. He is in fact a 21st century man who is in a coma after a vehicular accident, and also time-traveled to Napoleon in his dreams. But since he is in a coma, he is always around and dreams of the bleeping medical machines that surround his real body when he is asleep in the early 19th century. | |

All Just a Dream | |
| Man Of My Dreams / int_ea85d6ea | comment |
All Just a Dream: Subverted. When Marie meets Napoleon for the first time, she believes it to be nothing but a normal dream and has fun in a conversation with him about his future, which she details to him exactly in the manner she knows. After more dreams happen, she realizes that these aren’t just dreams - rather supernatural time travel. And that she is meeting the real Napoleon and episodically sharing his life. | |

Dude, She's Like in a Coma | |
| Man Of My Dreams / int_f604f64b | comment |
Dude, She's Like in a Coma: Gender-Inverted. When Marie visits Tristan, she holds his hand, not realizing that his parents come for a visit in the same moment. They are puzzled by her behavior. Subverted, since Marie realizes that she can dive a little into the past by holding his hand and makes Tristan’s real body react to some kind of stimulus for the first time since he is in the coma. | |
