!!This fic provides examples of:
* DealWithTheDevil: Discussed.
--> "I'll pass, thank you," Hobbes said. "I'm not interested in that stuff. I didn't sell my soul to the devil."\\
"Neither have I," Calvin protested.\\
[[NoodleIncident "Yes, but you nearly did once."]]\\
[[ItSeemedLikeAGoodIdeaAtTheTime "Well, it seemed like a good offer!"]]
* DudeWheresMyRespect: Calvin gets ''really'' fed up with having to deal with the CassandraTruth of the last fic.
* HumiliationConga:
--> Mom walked in the door. "By the way, Calvin," she said. "I'm taking you to the doctor this afternoon for your annual physical."\\
Still face in his pillow, Calvin's muffled reply was, "Just when I thought this day couldn't get any worse."\\
"He'll probably give you a shot."\\
Calvin had to clutch the mattress to keep from floating into the air from the force of any upcoming shouts.\\
"Also, I've decided that we won't be buying you anymore water balloons. You've been getting into too much with that GROSS club. I'm getting
your father to tear down your tree house."\\
Calvin clutched harder to the sheets on the mattress. The scream was almost there.\\
[[ExaggeratedTrope "Also, we're having dinner at the Derkins' house tonight after we get back. We'll be having boiled cabbage and broccoli. I want you to sit with Susie at the small table. I'll be back in half an hour to take you."]]
* NoodleIncident:
--> "I can't believe this!" Calvin said indignantly. "You cause one or two minor riots and a bull stampede, followed by several the water balloon bombs of '98, and the neighbors think you're a troublemaker."

* TheScream: Calvin, following the above HumiliationConga.
