| YU+ME: dream (Webcomic) | comment |
YU+ME: dream is a webcomic by Megan Rose Gedris. It concluded in 2010.The fact that nobody wants to give away the plot means that you might prefer to start from Strip 1 just to be on the safe side. The normal text/hidden text ratio on this whole article really says everything; it may start slow, but then WHAM! Spoilers that nobody dares give away.Things just aren't going well for Fiona. She has a dead mom, a father who is always on business, a Wicked Stepmother, no friends at the Catholic high school, and none of the nuns believe that she's being picked on by Sarah and Cass. So she begins to not pay any attention to anything around her, instead living in her own head in vivid, lucid dreams.But then Lia moves in next door and real life seems more interesting with her around. Fiona gains another friend in Jake, a green haired boy she saves from a bunch of bullies who attack him for being gay. Fiona is drawn to him, intrigued by this thing known as "gay". She begins to look at Lia in a whole new light. But what will Lia think of it? | |

Jumping Off the Slippery Slope | |
| YU+ME: dream (Webcomic) / int_1520ad7e | comment |
Jumping Off the Slippery Slope: Lia when she lost her conscience, especially compared to Sadako's relatively benign reaction to losing her conscience. Granted, Sadako wasn't exactly a paragon to begin with, but she never fell near as far as the mass murderer known as The Terrible Mara. | |

So Happy Together | |
| YU+ME: dream (Webcomic) / int_23a37bb9 | comment |
So Happy Together: Fiona goes to prom and is very happy because she gets to be with Lia, at least until it's revealed to be All Just a Dream, which separates the two. Thankfully, it's subverted when Fiona and Lia get together again in the dream world, ultimately meeting up with each other as reincarnations in real life and presumably starting another relationship. | |

Bilingual Bonus | |
| YU+ME: dream (Webcomic) / int_294ed981 | comment |
Bilingual Bonus: "yume" is Japanese for "dream", which makes sense since most of the comic takes place in dreams. The name young Sadako calls her her conscience (AKA Clandestine),"Himitsu" is Japanese for secret. Clandestine means "kept secret" | |

Reincarnation Romance When Fiona and Lia decide to leave Nod, they realize that both of them are dead in the real world, so Don finds a loop hole that technically "kills" them in Nod, but sends their souls back to Earth, where they can reincarnate and find each other. However, they don't meet up in the real world until the last page. | |

Always Chaotic Evil: Any human that's been separated from their conscience. Which happens automatically the moment you enter the Dream World for the first time, turning the newcomer into a Literal Split Personality. They can retain their original personality by maintaining physical proximity to their conscience, since everyone in Nod has Reality Warper powers, accidents can happen.... Did we mention that almost every person on Earth goes to Nod for in their dreams? | |

Psycho Lesbian | |
| YU+ME: dream (Webcomic) / int_59ddd555 | comment |
Psycho Lesbian: Sadako. However, unlike usual uses of this trope, it's obviously not to make lesbians look bad. Just this one in particular who has... issues. | |

Late-Arrival Spoiler | |
| YU+ME: dream (Webcomic) / int_5f3bb274 | comment |
Late-Arrival Spoiler: One of the early top banners (it has since changed). Description: Not only does it state that Fiona and Lia are in love with each other, it also implies that they both like girls, sort of ruining the whole Coming-Out Story part for new readers. | |

Always Save the Girl | |
| YU+ME: dream (Webcomic) / int_64edb99c | comment |
Always Save the Girl: Fiona's decision to attempt to go back into the Dream Land to find Lia Or not. Fiona was completely miserable in her life, anyway - no friends, nobody to talk to, dead mom, awful father and step mom, very dark family secret... so miserable, in fact, that prior to the start of the story, she'd attempted suicide. Lia and her dream friends were all she had. She wasn't really choosing the girl over other important options as much as pursuing the only happiness she knew. Except her step mom wasn't evil. She may have been frustrated, but deep down, she loved Fiona. Word of God says she was the first to run into the room, crying, the first time Fiona regained consciousness. So it's not all crap. invoked | |

The Reveal | |
| YU+ME: dream (Webcomic) / int_6b2b3b59 | comment |
The Reveal: The massive reveal at the end of Part 1: Sadako is the Big Bad, it's All Just a Dream, and Fiona was in a coma induced by a suicide attempt after she learned her mother succeeded at doing the same. There are some more reveals in Part 2, such as Sadako and Lia being long-dead in the real world and being trapped in Nod, Lucy being forced to spy on Fiona and her group by Sadako, Clandestine being Sadako's former conscience, Himitsu, and much of the plot being a plan for Sadako to commit suicide. | |

Driven to Suicide | |
| YU+ME: dream (Webcomic) / int_6d332aea | comment |
Driven to Suicide: This story seems to love this trope: Fiona's mom was the first case of this. After her life fell apart, she wrote a suicide note and drove with Fiona into an oncoming car, attempting to take her daughter's life with her own. Fiona survived, but she didn't. Fiona attempted suicide herself after finding her mother's suicide note; wanting to finish what her mom started, she drove her car into a tree. Fiona didn't die, but she entered a coma where Part 1 took place. After having enough of Sadako raping her in the dream world, Ellie committed suicide to get away from the pain. Implied with the King of Nod; we don't see anything happen to him, but it's inferred that he's been king for so long that he is tired of life and wants someone to kill him so he can pass on. Sadako fell on the same trajectory as the King of Nod; since she's lived in Nod for such a long time, she just wants to die so she can find peace. Lia didn't want to live without her love George, who was killed in the war. When she meets him (actually Sadako in disguise) in her dreams, Lia thinks that she's in the afterlife and wants to stay with George, so she bricks up the wall to reality; however, this can also be classified as an indirect somewhat-murder due to Lia being unaware of "George"'s identity in Nod. Finally, in the end, Fiona and Lia, hoping to reunite in the real world, jump through a portal which kills their dream versions but allows their souls to be reborn in reality. Unlike the other cases, this one has a much happier tone. | |

Wham Episode: Part 1: Issue 9. Everything changes when it's revealed that everything up to this point was in Fiona's dream, and she was in a coma in the real world. It also marks the Genre Shift for the second part. Also, Part 2: Issue 11, with several reveals, such as Lia was (as most of the fandom had figured out) once a real-world person. In her sleep, she befriended Sadako. In the real world, she fell in love with a man named George. George died, Lia told Sadako, and then basically Sadako impersonated George and lived with Lia like that for decades. Lia found out, shit hit the fan, her conscience got kidnapped, and Lia became a sociopathic monster named Mara the Terrible. | |

Drama Bomb | |
| YU+ME: dream (Webcomic) / int_8fda1d64 | comment |
Drama Bomb: Many of these are in Part 1: Issues 1 - 8, but Part 1: Issue 9 definitely takes the cake on this, including Fiona's gay godfather Richard arriving and telling her about her upbringing, including her mother's suicide due to her father cheating with her stepmother, Fiona admitting to being a lesbian to her stepmother, which gets her grounded (though Richard takes her to the prom anyway), and James getting together with Sadako. The ending of this issue, which reveals that everything up to this point was All Just a Dream, is a total drama bomb, which was a Wham Episode to all, but to some it was ridiculous, to some it was Fridge Brilliance after a few months. Lampshaded here (WARNING: Mega Spoiler!) The drama bomb is represented as a literal bomb. They continue in part 2 after a while. Lia's history, like the fact that she's bisexual, as well as the evil deeds when she committed as "Mara" when Sadako locked up her conscience, being a prime example. | |

Art Shift | |
| YU+ME: dream (Webcomic) / int_912b24c4 | comment |
Art Shift: Constantly. The first part of the comic was generally somewhat Animesque, but after The Reveal, the art shifts became much more frequent: The first true signs of Art Shift were when Fiona wakes up, changing the style to a Photo Comic for her real-world portions. After Fiona begins dreaming again, the art styles constantly change, including a Disney-esque artstyle, an artstyle with a lack of borders, and even claymation. Lia's backstory has an artstyle that harkens to back to the 40s and 50s. Sadako's real-world backstory is evocative of manga, being fully Animesque and black and white, at a time when the comic had shifted to full color. | |

A more IRL example: Clandy. Originally, she was just someone that Megan drew in the background and that was it. Clandy was not planned to have a role, much less a role as big as she has had. | |

Trauma-Induced Amnesia: Not entirely trauma induced, but Fiona doesn't remember certain things about her past until Richard starts telling her how her mother died. Somewhat justified, due to the fact that She's in a coma during the entirety of Part 1, due to her finding the suicide note left by her mother and deciding to finish the job by ramming herself into a tree. | |

Fantastic Romance: One of the best kept versions of this trope, what with Lia being long dead in the real world. | |

Jive Turkey: Oddly enough, Fiona's conscience speaks in ebonics in Part 1: Issue 1. By Issue 2, she still does so, but it's noticeably toned down. Later explained and subverted because her conscious was being told to act that way by her boss. As a result, she drops this in Part 2. | |

It Makes Sense in Context | |
| YU+ME: dream (Webcomic) / int_ba236071 | comment |
Lia didn't want to live without her love George, who was killed in the war. When she meets him (actually Sadako in disguise) in her dreams, Lia thinks that she's in the afterlife and wants to stay with George, so she bricks up the wall to reality; however, this can also be classified as an indirect somewhat-murder due to Lia being unaware of "George"'s identity in Nod. | |

Mind Screw: We can see the writing on the wall in the ending of Part 1: Issue 9 (when reality appears to break apart as a result of it all being a dream), but from Part 2: Issue 1 onward, Yu+Me is absolutely insane, including random Art Shifts, characters with crazy traits, and more, which is justified since it takes place in the dream world, but in a more fantastical setting compared to the normal settings from Part 1, and Fiona is aware she's dreaming this time. Lampshaded in this (somewhat spoilery) intermission. | |

Freudian Excuse | |
| YU+ME: dream (Webcomic) / int_c868a42a | comment |
Freudian Excuse: Subverted. Sadako gets set up for this the second her story/issue starts, since we know that humans become evil when separated from their consciences. Then it turns out she shunned her conscience because the poor girl was trying to keep her from having "fun" (read: random acts of manipulation and jerkassery). invoked | |

Cloudcuckoolander: Clandestine Jones nearly always has a strange way of acting, such as looking at a dangerous creature in awe or thinking that a journal was literally "planted" from a plant. This is later revealed to be because she used to be Sadako's conscience. But Sadako banished her for, basically, not letting her have her "fun" with Ellie. | |

Cast Full of Gay | |
| YU+ME: dream (Webcomic) / int_d32cd9f5 | comment |
Cast Full of Gay: A lot of characters in the comic aren't straight, with the main protagonists Fiona and Lia being lesbians. Sarah is implied to be not straight as well, since she kisses Fiona towards the end of act 1. In act 2, the actor that played Sarah in her dream, Lucy, had an early script even said that "Sarah" harbored a secret crush on Fiona in the script. Cass also appears to be involved or have a crush on Sarah, and have a total flip out towards Fi after she catches them kissing. On top of those spoilers, Jake, Don and Richard are all gay as well. Finally,Sadako is also gay/bi, since she had crushes on two girls back when she was alive. | |

The end of the dream is when the real story begins, and the reader follows Fiona while dealing with the very real psychological effects it had on her. Fiona then decides to try, and succeeds, at getting back to the Dream World to pursue the only happiness she knew, even while being aware that what she will find will be different from the fantasy she lived... | |

Love Makes You Evil: It is hinted that Sadako impersonated Lia's dead lover and tricked her into staying forever in the Dream Land, at least partly because she couldn't stand to see her so upset at his death. Sadako could count when she first became Queen of Dreams and started abusing her power to have Ellie "make things up" to her for causing her death. This eventually proves too much for Ellie and she commits suicide. | |
