Tempting Fate | |
| The Door (Kanvi) / int_15b2cab3 | comment |
Tempting Fate: The student reads on the bus, and is about to reach the climax, which is fortunate since she hates being interrupted at that point in the story. That's when she's forcibly cut back to reality by the bus' arrival. | |

Catapult Nightmare: The protagonist is startled awake by a nightmare of being chased through a dark street, yelling "Arghh, Help! It’s trying to eat me up! Please help!" upon waking, only to be met with relief at the fact that it was just a dream. The mother blames last night's horror film. | |

| The Door (Kanvi) / int_30cb4d04 | comment |
Crystal-Ball Scheduling: The story-within-a-story "The Book" features a girl discovering a mysterious door, but the student's bus arrives right at the climax, so what's behind the door is never revealed. On the other hand, the student finds an odd door and is encouraged to open it to answer her questions on what may be on the other side. | |

Metafictional Title | |
| The Door (Kanvi) / int_93f27743 | comment |
Metafictional Title: The protagonist has a book titled "The Door", just like the story she's in. It's about an impoverished girl who discovers a hidden door in her run-down one-bedroom house, but the reader is cut off from reading what's behind the door. Then she finds a mysterious door and finds what's behind it. | |

Stock "Yuck!": The girl orders a vanilla cake and a coffee at the cafe, and while she finds the former delectable, the cappucino takes her taste buds completely by surprise and she doesn't drink any more of it. Not even cold water can totally flush out the taste. | |
