IN WHICH I KILL ALL PRODUCTIVITY FOR A NIGHT

So I had this idea in chat and---*thwap*---it's positively evil.

Your guide? TVTropes, the site that will soon ruin your life if it hasn't already done so several times over. Not that I've ever had twenty trope tabs open, no siree!

Your mission? List every trope that you know of that applies to your character!

If you're playing a canon character, you've got it relatively easy. Your canon probably has its own page and some tropes for your character listed for you already. If you're playing an OC from a canon, that canon's tropes should be helpful. And then there's the obvious ones like werewolf tropes or vampire tropes you can easily find with a search.

And if all that doesn't help you? HIT THE RANDOMIZER OVER AND OVER. Soon you'll find something that sorta fits, which leads to something that totally fits, that leads to more things that fit, until you're lost in a pothole maze of tropes. It's fun.

Go go go!

...Oh hell.

Badass Normal (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/BadassNormal): He fights everything from the ex-Wrath of God to evil invading aliens with a stick, when he's not driving around town at a break-neck speed trying to avoid getting stomped by a super-villain, or knocking Men In Black off of their motorcycles with thrown crowbars.
Big Guy (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/TheBigGuy?from=Main.BigGuy): They all have their moments, but Paco's always been drawn the biggest (if not always the tallest). Specifically of the Boisterous Bruiser (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/BoisterousBruiser) type.
Crowning Moment of Awesome (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/CrowningMoment/ComicBooks): His quote is on the top of the page, bitches!
Ordinary High School Student (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/OrdinaryHighSchoolStudent): ...whose best friend has an alien killing machine attached to his spine.
Three Amigos (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/ThreeAmigos): You knew this was going to be on here. Don't even deny it.
Wake Up, Go to School, Save the World (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/WakeUpGoToSchoolSaveTheWorld): Well, he helps.
Air Hugging (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/AirHugging): SUBVERTED. Paco and Jaime hug NO PROBLEM in canon. The boys are manly enough to be hug and we love them for it.
Blood Brothers (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/BloodBrothers): Technically headcanon, but it counts for this. Jaime and Paco would be blood brothers, except Jaime freaked about the blood mixing. So they drew tattoos on each other instead (where do you think Paco got the idea for the tats he got while Jaime was missing?)
Fearless Fool (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/FearlessFool): He faced down the ex-Wrath of God with a stick to protect a baby. He's damn lucky his best friend's power fantasy involves a sweater vest.
Green Eyed Monster (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/GreenEyedMonster): SUBVERTED. You'd think he'd be jealous about his best friend having super powers, but he's just THRILLED to be a sidekick. It's kind of adorable.
Nakama (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/Nakama): With Jaime and Brenda.
Spell My Name With a The (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/SpellMyNameWithAThe): "Never take your eyes off the Paco!"

Probably more to come :D

..... fuuuuuck I'm gonna have to do this when I get un-hiatused! XD (Brenda is gonna steal half of Paco's list probably...)
