Nobody Gets the Girl / int_13d20b89 | comment |
Immortals Fear Death: Averted. After Chimpion destroyed his servers, App felt as if an invisible weight had been removed from his shoulders. His mind had squirmed away from any attempt to grapple with the ramifications of his potential immortality. Knowing that his current life might be his last made him feel as if it had some value. | |

Arbitrary Skepticism | |
Nobody Gets the Girl / int_13eea985 | comment |
Arbitrary Skepticism: Despite destroying and recreating the universe turning it into a Fantasy Kitchen Sink yet wasn’t willing to accept that he had an Evil Twin. Mrs. Knowbokov doesn’t believe in magic. This is despite the fact that in the same conversation she denied its existence, she didn’t discount Rex Monday being Back from the Dead because she was married to a man who built a time machine. Played with. Due to everything that has happened to her, Mrs. Knowbokov has come to believe that nothing is impossible. She also believes in Clarke's Third Law. | |

Full-Frontal Assault: Servant can’t wear clothing because, due to his force fields, they just fall off of him. Luckily, he can make his force fields opaque and change their colors. Ap finds it hilarious upon finding out that Mr. Holier Than Thou prances around in public completely naked. Sarah, meanwhile, is reluctant to let him lead a press conference because if something breaks his concentration, his fields go transparent. | |

Surprisingly Realistic Outcome | |
Nobody Gets the Girl / int_3ed23024 | comment |
Surprisingly Realistic Outcome: Dr. Know can enter a person's mind so thoroughly, their entire personality is subverted, allowing him to control their thoughts. Not only does this take time, often up to several weeks, but once it’s done he can’t control their bodies, as muscular movement and balance require more than the conscious mind. When Sunday first showed her powers to people using a Finger-Snap Lighter. She thought they would laugh at the fact she used a little more power than intended, instead she was met with Stunned Silence. Sunday threatened to kill the girls who had witnessed her Accidental Murder if they told anyone, but inside of fifteen minutes, both girls had talked and Sunday was on her way to jail. Rex Monday’s space machine is illegal in the U.S, so the Katrina Knowbokov Foundation doesn’t keep it there. The Space Machine isn’t magic. It takes energy to operate. Moving a single human around the globe is a costly process. Also, unless it’s been laced with tracer nanites snatching a remote target is next to impossible. Ap allows the public to provide new Powers as Programs. This means that by Catfishing him, villains are able to as well. By utilizing G.I.R.L., Trog not only wrote his preferred Restore Mode code, but created a Power Nullifier. Even though Servant doesn’t need to eat food, he still enjoys meals. This was how his DNA was extracted, since what goes in must come out. It is not App’s belt that keeps him alive, but the computers that house the code for the belt. His line of work is extremely dangerous, and as he himself stated, the belt gets destroyed all the time. This is why Dr Know was amused by the President’s attempts at blocking his telepathy. Though it worked the second the president and his team left the bunker they would meet in to figure out how to deal with Dr Know, he’d know what they’d discussed. He said the only way for it would have really worked would be if they never left the room. | |

Nobody Gets the Girl / int_4832a3bb | comment |
Always Chaotic Evil: The Pangeans are a race of super-intelligent chimps created by Rex Monday using an evolution ray. In both the second and third novel of the series, they attempt an Apocalypse How. In Burn Baby Burn it was out of resentment at being the minority compared to humans, while in Covenant they were merely acting as mercenaries for the Big Bad. In both cases, the underlining cause of their actions is their belief in The Right of a Superior Species. | |

Nobody Gets the Girl / int_50f66629 | comment |
Crazy-Prepared: Rex Monday created technology that makes him Immune to Mind Control. Mrs. Knowbokov started using it after his death. The White House wasn’t happy about dealing with Dr. Know when he used his telepathy to get his way, so they built a bunker beneath the White House with psionic baffles that are shielded from all telepathic access. There is even a security code that can be used to ward the President against possible psionic incursion. The Russian military is so corrupt that Mrs Know was able to cripple their nuclear capabilities just by throwing money around. They have a lot of missiles sitting in silos that won’t go anywhere because the rocket fuel has been sold on the black market. Lots of other missiles are essentially empty shells because terrorists have paid top dollar for the fissionable material. | |

Nobody Gets the Girl / int_51a485d1 | comment |
Brought Down to Badass: A lot of the hardware for the server that houses App’s data was Rex Monday’s own design, and it is doubtful that the Knowbokov Foundation could fix it. So by the end of "Covanant", the twin App’s have lost their immortality and the only power they have is the apps that were already programmed into their belt when the server was destroyed. | |

Meta Origin: Dr. Nicolas Knowbokov's "vacuum bomb" caused the universe to transition to a new quantum state. Knowbokov's consciousness survived as an "observer" and provided the template around which the universe reassembled. Because he was a longtime fan of superhero comic books, the new reality included super powers. | |

And I Must Scream: Part of Servant's backstory is that he was a drug kingpin that picked a fight with Rail Blade and got himself sealed in huge block of iron. Before the big reveal, Richard thought the afterlife was going to mean spending the rest of eternity like a Saturday morning that would never end. Rex Monday claims that he was the one who created the world and Dr. Know was created when he imagined himself in it only for someone very much like himself to fill it. while he was stayed trapped outside: Servant’s powers fall under Blessed with Suck, as while his force fields are incredibly powerful since he can never turn them off, he can’t actually touch or feel anything. | |

When Sarah was seventeen and met a man at a concert just as they were about to get it on Amelia ripped off the roof of his Van, Dr. Know had been inside the guy’s head the entire time. Him not being able to read Richard’s mind is one of the primary reasons she became attracted to him. | |

Cry for the Devil: Pit Geek is a disgusting murderous creature in the first book, but is presented much more sympathetically in the second as we learn about his mental state and background. Sundancer also becomes more sympathetic, especially when she finally accepts that the war between Rex Monday and Dr. Know is over. The death-row inmates Dr. Know uses for his Wetware CPU while Richard didn’t believe in the death penalty he stressed that death was preferable even if they were Asshole Victim. Making this worse one of the inmates was a Woobie, Destroyer of Worlds who welcomed his death sentence. | |

Why anyone would waste God-given moments of life with a comic book, a movie, or even a novel eludes him. He considers fiction like a sort of stealth drug, as effective at distracting its users from life’s real problems as any of the junk he trafficked as Ogre.

No Good Deed Goes Unpunished: Katrina Knowbokov took it upon herself to take responsibility for the actions of Rex Monday and her late husband. Sadly, she was unaware that the inmates’ time in the Wetware CPU had transformed them into Power Parasites when she freed them. This made her endeavor of giving them a chance at a new life doomed to fail, and is ultimately what led to her death. The Irony is that Sister Ami killed her in revenge for what happened at Jerusalem, something she had absolutely nothing to do with. | |

Impersonating the Evil Twin | |
Nobody Gets the Girl / int_ebb6aa3c | comment |
Impersonating the Evil Twin: Inverted. Delilah McPherson was one of the death-row inmates who were a part of Dr. Know’s Wetware CPU. After his death, Mrs Know wanted to give them a second chance and set them free, unaware that since he had used portions of her mind as a telepathic amplifier, Delilah was immune to the attempts at turning her into a Blank Slate. When she was released, she kidnapped her sister Amy, drugged her, and turned her loose on a highway in a car with a stuck accelerator and the brake lines slowly bleeding out. And since she had already stolen all of Amy’s memories, it was easy for Delilah to step into her life. | |

Powers as Programs | |
Nobody Gets the Girl / int_f2227354 | comment |
Ap allows the public to provide new Powers as Programs. This means that by Catfishing him, villains are able to as well. By utilizing G.I.R.L., Trog not only wrote his preferred Restore Mode code, but created a Power Nullifier. | |

Evil Plan | |
Nobody Gets the Girl / int_f2d8e3c2 | comment |
Evil Plan: Amy McPherson’s plan is to have her Dervishes perform terrorist acts on American soil, increasing political pressure to send more troops to fight overseas, then use her Mind Manipulation to get the President to reinstate the draft and send the youth of America off to put an end to this terrible, terrible threat. Then, once she’s started World War III, she plans on transporting New Jerusalem to Old Jerusalem, exacerbating things until the Nuclear Option is the only choice the leaders of the world have. | |

The Fundamentalist | |
Nobody Gets the Girl / int_f76842b1 | comment |
The Fundamentalist: Servant became this after his Heel–Faith Turn, which can make him come across as a Knight Templar Politically Incorrect Hero. He even recommended conversion therapy to Ap when he found out he was gay. | |

Victory by Endurance | |
Nobody Gets the Girl / int_f962d8a3 | comment |
Victory by Endurance: Most of the inmates that Dr Know had kidnapped had gone into death row in their twenties, but due to appeals, had faced execution in their thirties. Then, some had spent over a decade in a goo tube, and another six years had passed since they’d been freed. Judgement had to be at least 50 and maybe close to sixty. So even with his armor supplying all the real muscle, Sarah had far more stamina and endurance than him. She was even worried that he might keel over from a heart attack while chasing her. | |
