| Villainous Nights (Visual Novel) / int_1439161f | comment |
Heroic BSoD: In Duke's fourth season, the discovery that his parents' memories have been altered to the point that they don't remember him at all sends him into an emotional meltdown that renders him almost nonverbal for a while. It takes him several days to come out of it, and then he's unusually hostile and aggressive for most of the rest of the season. At the start of Renzei's third season, Renzei has a violent breakdown after learning that his entire family was killed by Optimus years ago. By the time Monarch finally persuades him to come home with her, he's gone several days without food or sleep. At the start of Andi’s fourth season, having her identity exposed and her fans turn against her trapping her in her apartment, causes Andi to fall into a depression. | |

Relationship Upgrade | |
| Villainous Nights (Visual Novel) / int_161f1ebf | comment |
One of the biggest obstacles to developing a more intimate relationship with Duke, as Monarch discovers in his second season, is how often tender moments are likely to be interrupted by the demands of either his day job or Syndicate business. Several near-Relationship Upgrades are derailed by inopportune phone calls or team chat notifications. | |

Character Overlap | |
| Villainous Nights (Visual Novel) / int_166258c3 | comment |
Character Overlap: Monarch's roommate Robin Sanders originated in Chimera's route of Astoria: Fate's Kiss, as the child of Chimera and that game's heroine. Word of God states that Robin's appearance in Villainous Nights is not meant to dictate Astoria canon; the producers simply borrowed the character because they like them. Renzei's second season introduces tattoo artist Rahim, who according to Renzei is the subject of a number of urban legends. Rahim is the younger brother of Razi Nassar in Havenfall Is for Lovers. In Andi's fourth season, she and Monarch visit Los Angeles and stay at the Valentine gang's mansion from Gangsters in Love, courtesy of family connections of Robin's. The Gangsters cast don't appear, but Word of God confirms that Robin's sister CJ (from Astoria: Fate's Kiss) is married to Yoshimitsu's son. In Duke's fifth season, his personal physician turns out to be Diego Escalona from Havenfall Is for Lovers. Diego shows up again in Renzei's fourth season, this time as a friend of Rahim Nassar, who asks Diego to convey his regards to Razi and the Havenfall heroine. Aphrodite from Astoria: Fate's Kiss shows up at an Optimus event in Andi's fifth season. | |

The Glomp: In Andi's second season, when she meets Bat in person for the first time, she runs and leaps on him in a hug and he staggers back as he catches her. She prepares to do it again the following season when seeing Bat out of costume for the first time, even stepping back for a running start, but Bat begs her not to, citing bruises from the last time, so she skids to a stop at the last second and settles for a gentle hug. | |

| Villainous Nights (Visual Novel) / int_21cf9301 | comment |
Family of Choice: After Renzei learns about the deaths of his family, the Syndicate ends up becoming this for him. In Andi's fifth season, he declares them the only family he has left, vowing to defend them to his last breath, and a hug he shares with Andi reminds him of one of his sisters. In Renzei's fourth season, Monarch describes a teasing interaction between him and Duke as brotherly, and when he steps in to force Juliette to eat and sleep after she'd spent a sleepless night working, for Monarch it brings to mind a stern older brother. | |

Only Sane Man: Duke and Lorelei pass the role of beleaguered straight-man to the rest of the team's shenanigans back and forth between them, but Lorelei is somewhat more likely to end up being Not So Above It All so it's most often Duke who's left struggling in vain to conduct himself seriously while Andi, Renzei, and Bat are cutting up. | |

Playful Cat Smile: Mentioned in Lorelei season 3, when Juliette makes a wink-wink-nudge-type comment about Monarch and Lorelei's relationship. Also inevitably mentioned in Andi's route - after Andi decides to play her cat motif to the hilt by locking eyes with Monarch while knocking some marshmallows off the kitchen counter, Monarch says she expects her to make a :3 face. | |

Awful Truth | |
| Villainous Nights (Visual Novel) / int_363f94c9 | comment |
Awful Truth: In Duke's fourth season, he discovers that his parents - who he'd believed were murdered when he was a child and who he had only recently learned were still alive - have been the subjects of Optimus memory-alteration experiments. They don't remember having a son, and will probably never remember him. Learning this sends him into a Heroic BSoD that lasts most of the first three episodes, and he's Not Himself for much of the season. At the end of Renzei's second season and the beginning of his third, Bat drops the bombshell that Optimus had Renzei's entire family murdered years ago, while continuing to tell Renzei they were being held hostage and would be killed if he didn't carry out their orders. The revelation shatters Renzei emotionally to the point that he briefly considers suicide, before deciding against it because he can't take the thought of facing his family in the afterlife. | |

While they only intended to be gone for a year, something went wrong with the A.I.s of the androids, they were the ones responsible for all the evil that Optimus caused and why Juliette’s loving parents suddenly became cold and distant. | |

Power Perversion Potential: Monarch and her love interest of choice do not fail to explore the bedroom applications of their super-powers, particularly the heightened intimacy that comes from being able to share thoughts and feelings using Monarch's telepathy. Duke uses his cold-generating powers for some mild temperature play in his route, a heart scene in Renzei's second season involves Renzei and Monarch taking advantage of the combination of their powers to engage in Erotic Asphyxiation, Monarch uses her telekinesis for bondage and hands-off stimulation in Andi's fourth season, and Andi uses her electric powers to stimulate Monarch in her fifth season while indicating that she's used them on herself in that manner before. | |

Early-Installment Weirdness: The pilot seasons for Duke and Andi included timed decision points as a new feature, adding a sense of immediacy to action scenes by putting a choice of actions on a timer to give the player a limited window to act. Fan response to this feature does not seem to have been positive, as it was quietly dropped from subsequent seasons. | |

I Have Your Wife | |
| Villainous Nights (Visual Novel) / int_6201e8b0 | comment |
I Have Your Wife: One of the many ways Optimus is known to compel compliance from their own agents and others is by threatening family and loved ones. In Renzei's second season, Monarch learns that one of the benefits Optimus offered Renzei when they first recruited him was providing fancy company housing for his family and promising that they would never want for money as long as Renzei worked for Optimus. After his family was relocated, Renzei was not allowed any contact with them, and Optimus has threatened to kill his entire family if he disobeys or fails in a mission. In his third season, it's confirmed that Optimus actually murdered the entire Feng family years ago, while continuing to hold the threat over Renzei to compel his obedience. | |

Touch Telepathy: Duke is unable to hear Monarch's telepathic broadcasts unless they're in physical contact, though it doesn't need to be skin to skin. As the two grow closer, he starts being able to hear her without the two of them touching, but contact still makes it much more reliable (and more romantic), and allows him to project his thoughts to her as well. When Monarch's telepathy emerges in Renzei's second season, he similarly finds he can only project his thoughts to her when they are touching, though he can hear her broadcasts without contact. | |

Clark Kenting | |
| Villainous Nights (Visual Novel) / int_7175cb16 | comment |
Clark Kenting: The masks worn by the members of the Syndicate are a bit more substantial than the classic superhero domino mask, but they do absolutely nothing to disguise Duke, Andi, and Monarch's distinctive hair colors. The heroine does manage to recognize Duke, Andi, and Lorelei behind the masks on their respective routes, but only on their routes - on any other route, she completely fails to connect Wolf and Cat to Duke Vale and Andi Kim despite often seeing their faces in the media, and on Renzei's route she doesn't recognize Falcon as the hot guy she'd been flirting with until he deliberately unmasks himself. On Lorelei's route, Scarlet Brighid recognizes the heroine and Monarch as the same person. When she confronts her with this, she mockingly suggests that the heroine should have worn fake glasses, "really made me work to figure it out." | |

Animal-Themed Superbeing | |
| Villainous Nights (Visual Novel) / int_7a87fa80 | comment |
Animal-Themed Superbeing: The members of the Syndicate each have an animal alias and wear a mask with the corresponding motif: Wolf, Cat, Badger, Falcon, and Bat. Their elemental powers also correspond to their animal to some extent, aside from Cat. Once the heroine joins them, she acquires the alias "Monarch," as in butterfly. Later seasons add Cobra, whose power gives him the ability to Flash Step. Dahlia joins the Syndicate in Andi's fifth season, and, although she joins so close to the fall of Optimus that she never gets a proper suit and codename, hers would have been otter-themed, because of her control over water. | |

Dysfunction Junction | |
| Villainous Nights (Visual Novel) / int_820ac3c5 | comment |
Dysfunction Junction: It becomes pretty obvious to Monarch that all five members of the syndicate are screwed up in various ways. Duke puts up a cold front at first, but it's shown that it's mostly because he's socially awkward. Andi has a hard time opening up and struggles with commitment issues. Renzei is the most likely to suggest violent solutions because of being conditioned into being an assassin by Optimus. Lorelei keeps most people at arm's length and is probably the most tight lipped about her past due to having been a teenage superhero for Optimus and been in a badly ended engagement with Scarlet Brighid. Bat has never really had anyone she could share every side of herself with, keeping different parts of herself carefully compartmentalized depending on who she's with. | |

A couple of scenes later, the same board member reveals that he'd intended for the bodies to be disposed of "less... ceremoniously," but Ajax personally arranged and paid for proper burial. | |

Celeb Crush | |
| Villainous Nights (Visual Novel) / int_c0e5fc39 | comment |
Celeb Crush: Monarch is a bit starstuck when first meeting Andi on her route, having been a fan of hers for quite some time. On another occasion, she notes that some of Andi's pictures had been a bit of a Closet Key for her. In Duke's first episode, the heroine blushes at the thought of Optimus superhero Scarlet Brighid. On Lorelei's route, she notes that she'd crushed on Scarlet in the past. Scarlet herself remarks on being the subject of many fan-crushes. | |

True Companions | |
| Villainous Nights (Visual Novel) / int_c313d43a | comment |
True Companions: For all that they're a group of self-proclaimed villains who have spent little if any time together outside of their work, and who in many cases have difficulty dealing with or expressing their feelings, the members of the Syndicate respect and care about one another very much. It's made especially clear in Renzei's second season: even after he and Monarch betray the rest of the Syndicate to Optimus, the others worry about the two of them and continue to try to reach out to them. | |

Internal Reveal | |
| Villainous Nights (Visual Novel) / int_c5ccf60f | comment |
Internal Reveal: In various routes, Andi and Renzei are shown learning of Bat's identity after it has already been revealed to Monarch/the reader. This is the case for Andi in Lorelei and Juliette's routes, and for Renzei in every route but Duke's. In Juliette's route, Juliette/Bat being the same person is presented up front to the reader before starting the route, but the heroine doesn't find out until the second half of the first season. | |

Telepathy | |
| Villainous Nights (Visual Novel) / int_c6d11745 | comment |
Telepathy: The protagonist also develops the power of telepathy along with her telekinesis. At first it mostly only allows her to project her thoughts to her teammates (not always on purpose, especially when the power first emerges). As it develops, she becomes able to use it for two-way communication and with people outside the team. | |

Dude, Not Funny!: In-universe in a heart scene in Renzei's third season, when Duke wise-cracks over text that Juliette is too paranoid, Juliette replies asking if Renzei has killed Duke and had him replaced with an impostor. Neither Renzei nor Lorelei finds this at all funny. Duke thinks it was a little funny, though. | |

They stop just shy of actually kissing - just enough to make it look like they're making out - but it's still enough to leave Duke very flustered. | |

The Mole | |
| Villainous Nights (Visual Novel) / int_e70127 | comment |
The Mole: In several routes, the Syndicate attempts to make use of Monarch's internship at Optimus to collect information. It's mostly not very effective, since interns don't get access to anything sensitive and in most cases Optimus is already aware of what Monarch is up to. In Duke's third season, the team realizes that someone is leaking information about Duke to Optimus, most significantly that he is Wolf. It's Miguel, Duke's personal assistant at ChatSphere. In Renzei's route, Renzei himself is a double agent working for Optimus, revealed at the end of the first season. It's eventually revealed that this is true across all routes, but in routes other than Renzei's his loyalty has already shifted to the Syndicate by the time the rest of the team finds out. | |

Moment Killer: Near the end of Andi's first season, she and Monarch are making out in Monarch's bedroom and things are starting to get heated when Robin bursts in, angry about someone having eaten their chips. One of the biggest obstacles to developing a more intimate relationship with Duke, as Monarch discovers in his second season, is how often tender moments are likely to be interrupted by the demands of either his day job or Syndicate business. Several near-Relationship Upgrades are derailed by inopportune phone calls or team chat notifications. Midway through Lorelei's second season, she and Monarch come close to kissing for the first time when they are interrupted by Juliette walking in on them. She's even tagged as "Moment Stealer" before she introduces herself. | |

Running Gag: In Renzei's first season, every time Monarch speculates about his personal life (such as guessing at his day job or asking if he likes spicy foods), Renzei quips that she knows too much and he'll have to kill her.

Elemental Personalities: The main cast mostly have elemental powers and personalities to match them: Wolf has powers of ice and cold and a standoffish, Sugar-and-Ice Personality. He also had an interest in ice skating even before his powers manifested, which prompts Bat to call him a stereotype. Cat has electricity powers and is an agile, playful trickster. Badger has rock and earth powers and is blunt, straightforward, and no-nonsense. Falcon is mysterious and unpredictable - what could be harder to get a grip on than air? Bat is secretive and never shows his face until later seasons, and has the power to manipulate light and darkness. | |

Evil, Inc.: Optimus. The sparkling public image they maintain through their assortment of humanitarian projects and an excellent PR machine is a cover for - among many other things - corporate espionage and sabotage, human experimentation and trafficking, and assassinations. They have an extensive security team of armored Mooks who wield electric stun batons and act as the company's private army of enforcers, as well as training elite agents for their dirtier work; across routes they are demonstrated to use everything from threats towards family and loved ones to outright Mind Control to secure the cooperation of their targets and their own employees alike. | |

Flowers of Romance: After The Reveal at the start of his second season, Renzei's attempt to mend his relationship with Monarch begins with him bringing her flowers. It's not just any bouquet, either, but one carefully selected based on the significance of the flowers used: purple hyacinths for sorrow and sincere apology, white tulips representing his determination to prove himself worthy of her, and daffodils representing new beginnings, uncertainty, a wish for her happiness, and good fortune. | |
