"Nothing Like the Sun" is a short story by delta7447 and yearends of DeviantArt, which has two sequels, "More Lovely and More Temperate" and "Sweet Beauty Hath No Name". They can be read here. (Part 2) (Part 3).The main character life seems perfect: she is an all-powerful goddess who can do whatever she wants... except turn off the light that shines from her eyes like the Sun, causing people everywhere to ask that she solve their problems for them. She just wants to be left alone! Is that so bad?NOTE: Due to the nature of this story, it is strongly recommended that you read it and its sequels in their entirety before scrolling down and reading any further on this page. ALL SPOILERS WILL BE UNMARKED. You Have Been Warned. | |

Perverse Sexual Lust | |
| Nothing Like The Sun / int_16417501 | comment |
Perverse Sexual Lust: The main character speculates that her authors might feel this way about her, which understandably creeps her out. Her other hypothesis is that they are Godhood Seekers. | |

I Just Want to Be Normal: Downplayed; the main character loves being omnipotent and would never give up her powers, but she can't get her eyes to stop glowing. This causes people to worship her even though she wants none of it. | |

With Great Power Comes Great Perks: The main character wants to enjoy being omnipotent, but she can't do that as long as her eyes glow and attract would-be worshippers to her. She finally gets rid of them at the end of the story, so that she and her friends can live their lives in peace. | |

Anthropic Principle: The main character finds out that the only reason she didn't know she could just will her eyes to stop glowing is because the whole story is based around this, so if she knew she could do that, there would be no story, even though this doesn't make logical sense. | |

Freak Out | |
| Nothing Like The Sun / int_7fbe9a30 | comment |
Freak Out: The main character doesn't take it well when she discovers not only that she is fictional, but the reasons why her authors made her in the first place. As revenge for learning that she was created just as a joke and because her authors are turned on by omnipotent characters, she brings them to her world and demands that they fix everything. However, they can't do so outside of the real world. | |

Deconstructed Trope: Makes fun of The Omnipotent trope by pointing out that despite their power, these characters are nothing. Their whole lives are dictated by what their authors do and they can do nothing else. Even the main character bringing her authors to their universe and punishing them was the authors' intention all along. | |

The Omnipotent: There is nothing the main character cannot do, except get rid of her Glowing Eyes. She even brings her own authors into her story to demand that they get rid of the eyes, and only after that does she realize that, since she is omnipotent, she could have done it herself. | |

"Eureka!" Moment: After reading the authors' other stories, the main character suddenly realizes that she could turn off her Glowing Eyes just by willing it, and that she only didn't do so before because her authors were preventing her from ever thinking of it. This makes her hate them even more. | |

Hoist by His Own Petard: The authors thought they would get away with ruining the main character's life, because they are real and she is fictional, only for their creation to turn the tables on them precisely because they made her all-powerful. Fortunately for them, she realizes punishing them is pointless and sends them back unscathed. | |

You Were Trying Too Hard | |
| Nothing Like The Sun / int_f897011d | comment |
You Were Trying Too Hard: In "Nothing Like the Sun", the main character tries everything she can think of to make her eyes stop glowing, but none of them work. "Sweet Beauty Hath No Name" reveals that this is because she never considered just willing them to stop glowing, because her authors wouldn't allow it. Instead, she would close her eyes, wear sunglasses, or remove her eyes altogether. | |
