* HiddenHeartOfGold: Computer developed his MeanBrit tendencies as a means to cope with his various owners cruelty. Towards the end of Volume I, he's shown to be consciously attempting to be a nicer person but he often has a hard time breaking out of older habits. He's genuinely nice deep down but he's been a {{Jerkass}} for so long that he doesn't really know how to act any different anymore. He also has a very difficult time trusting people and isn't inclined to treat them any better than how he perceives them to treat him.

There's plenty of heartwarming, tearjerking, humorous moments to be had. Though the story largely deals with darker themes and has a more realistic tone compared to the show, its not devoid of humor. Everyone has some HiddenDepths and there's quite a bit of CharacterDevelopment to be found.

''[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/6196192/1/All_Things_End All Things End]]'' is a WesternAnimation/CourageTheCowardlyDog Fanfic written by Couragefan09.

When Courage begins experiencing a horrible pain in his chest that causes him to blackout for short periods of time, Muriel takes him to a vet to find out what's wrong. He's left clueless as to what his condition is but Muriel becomes very odd after the visit. Worried about what's going on, he goes to his computer for help only to find out that his illness is much worse than he expected. Doomed to eventually die from the illness, Muriel plans to have him put down to keep him from suffering in the late stages of the disease. Courage justifiably panics but Computer promises to try and find a way to save him.

With Computer's help, Courage begins a strange journey that just might save his life. Computer takes over the body of another dog to better help him by using the ability that he gained from the episode 'Mega Muriel The Magnificent'. The two slowly become friends, even if Computer wouldn't ever admit it, and Courage slowly but surely learns more about the cynical machine's less than pleasant past.

All Things End is a {{LongRunner}}, having started in late 2010 and is still on-going four years later. Volume I ended in 2014, clocking in at massive 144 chapters, while Volume II is still in the process of being written. The story largely deals with darker themes given the premises. It's a TearJerker with a lot of CrowningMomentOfHeartwarming. It's often humorous during its more lighthearted moments, but it likes to jump between having fun and being soul crushingly depressing. Wrap it all up with a bit of CharacterDevelopment thrown in for the various {{Jerkass}} characters from WesternAnimation/CourageTheCowardlyDog and you have yourself a strange but heartwarming story. ''Everyone'' has some HiddenDepths going on in this and it will most likely make you go AwLookTheyReallyDoLoveEachOther at least once.

All Things End has been quickly turning into a {{LongRunner}}, having started in late 2010 and is approaching its one-hundredth chapter. The story is largely a TearJerker with a lot of CrowningMomentOfHeartwarming. It's often humorous during its more lighthearted moments but it likes to jump around between having fun and being soul crushingly depressing. Wrap it all up with a bit of CharacterDevelopment thrown in for the various {{Jerkass}} characters from WesternAnimation/CourageTheCowardlyDog and you have yourself a strange but heartwarming story. ''Everyone'' has some HiddenDepths going on in this and it will most likely make you go AwLookTheyReallyDoLoveEachOther at least once.

When Courage begins experiencing a horrible pain in his chest that causes him to blackout for short periods of time, Muriel takes him to a vet to find out what's wrong. He's left clueless as to what his condition is but Muriel becomes very odd after the visit. Worried about what's going on, he goes to his computer for help only to find out that his illness is much worse than he ever expected. Doomed to eventually die from the illness, Muriel plans to have him put down to keep him from suffering in the late stages of the disease. Courage justifiably panics but Computer promises to try and find a way to help him.

With Computer's help, Courage begins a strange journey that just might save his life, but not everything is quite as it seems. The two slowly become friends even if DeadpanSnarker Computer wouldn't ever admit it and as time goes by Courage learns a lot more about his snarky computer than he ever thought possible, especially that he is far more of a {{Determinator}} than he could ever hope to be.

When Courage begins experiencing a horrible pain in his chest that causes him to blackout for short periods of time, Muriel takes him to a vet to find out what's wrong. He's left clueless as to what his condition is but Muriel becomes very odd after the visit to the vet. Worried about what's going on he goes to his computer for help only to find out that his illness is much worse than he ever expected. Doomed to eventually die from the illness, Muriel plans to have him put down to keep him from suffering in the late stages of the disease. Courage justifiably panics but Computer promises to try and find a way to help him.

With Computer's help Courage begins a strange journey that just might save his life, but not everything is quite as it seems. The two slowly become friends even if DeadpanSnarker Computer wouldn't ever admit it and as time goes on Courage learns a lot more about his snarky computer then he ever thought he would, especially that he's far more of a {{Determinator}} than he could ever hope to be.

All Things End currently sits at over 40 chapters long and is still ongoing. The story juggles between TearJerker and CrowningMomentOfHeartwarming, all with a bit of CharacterDevelopment thrown in for the various {{Jerkass}} characters from WesternAnimation/CourageTheCowardlyDog. ''Everyone'' has some HiddenDepths going on in this story and it will most likely make you go AwLookTheyReallyDoLoveEachOther at least once.

Courage sees Muriel telling him she doesn't want him anymore [[spoiler: Computer sees an old owner that he's absolutely terrified of. The illusion picks apart all of his perceived flaws and ultimately mocks him in a fashion similar to how he himself mocks other people.

* FishOutOfWater: For all of his smarts, Computer only has basic knowledge of how 'flesh creatures' work. This often causes a lot of problems for him while he's in the other dog's body. All of his social abilities were self taught as a computer and so he is often left stumped by social cues he doesn't understand, something such as a friendly hug. He doesn't even know how to do something as simple as eating and immediately assumes he's choking to death the first time he tries it.
