History Fanfic / AvengerGoddess

* ShippingTorpedo: When she realizes that Diana is in love with Steve, Peggy puts her own feelings aside after "testing" herself with the Lasso of Hestia, recognizing that Diana's love for Steve is stronger than what Peggy feels for him at this point.

* VictorGainsLosersPowers: Ares believes that if Diana had killed Sekhmet, she would have absorbed the power and domains of the latter goddess. It's unclear if killing Ares had this effect with his War domain, but [[spoiler:Circe]] apparently believes that Diana currently has no domain, attributing this to her continued interest in humans.

* CompositeCharacter: Captain America has essentially become an amalgamation of himself and Steve Trevor, although they were both very similar anyway as soldiers dedicated to doing the right thing rather than make moral compromises, barring the obvious fact that Rogers has his super-soldier-enhanced physiology where Trevor was just very good at his job.

* EarlyBirdCameo: Indirectly; Diana witnessed a fight between Happy Hogan and Battlin' Jack Murdock in the early 1990s, and Happy mentions that Murdock was reportedly killed by the mob.

* HoneyTrap: Jane, Darcy and Selvig initially assume that Diana is intended to be one to Thor, playing on his ‘delusion’ of godhood, before she demonstrates that she genuinely is a goddess.

* OpenMouthInsertFoot: Darcy basically does this when she calls ‘Hercules’ a hero and is immediately corrected by Diana.

* OutsideContextProblem: Basically applies to Diana’s circumstances after she is shown publicly meeting with Tony; she was expecting to attract interest from terrorists or criminals, and is instead plagued by paparazzi who assume that she’s Tony’s latest girlfriend or even his wife.
* PapaWolf: Selvig clearly considers himself this for Jane, initially wanting to discourage a relationship with Thor to stop her being drawn into his ‘delusion’.

* SupermanStaysOutOfGotham: When Darcy learns about Ares’ role in the Second World War, she asks why Thor and his people didn’t get involved, Diana clarifying that Ares used magic to stop any other gods being aware of his actions until he was defeated.

* WrittenByTheWinners: Upon learning of Herakles’ status as a villain, Clint initially assumes that this applies to the historical/mythological interpretation of him as a hero before Diana explains his true history. The archer is subsequently heartened to learn that the Trojan War happened basically as recorded.

* WrongGenreSavvy: Briefly applies to Darcy when Diana reveals that Herakles tried to claim Mjolnir; Darcy immediately thinks of [[WesternAnimation/Hercules the Disney movie]] before Diana corrects her, giving Darcy a chance to remember what Herakles did to the Amazons in the original myth.

The author has also written ''Fanfic/AvengerOfSteel'', a story that serves as a SpiritualAntithesis to this one as it adds Superman to another version of the MCU, and ''Fanfic/AvengerKnight'', which features a version of Franchise/{{Batman}} based on a blend of media adaptations, including the comics, the animated shows, and the [[Franchise/BatmanArkhamSeries Arkham games series]].

* NotSoDifferent: Loki reflects that Odin and the Godkiller each share the (to him) mistaken belief that mankind should be allowed to forge its own destiny, save for the difference that 'Godkiller' takes part in the affairs of man while Odin operates from a distance.

* TheArchmage: As in canon, the Ancient One, who is powerful enough that Diana, herself a skilled warrior and PhysicalGod, is wary about he odds of victory with trying to drag her back to Earth [[spoiler:to help cure Tony]].

* TakeThat: A minor one to the canon story of ''Film/TheIncredibleHulk'', where Bruce was hiding in a favela at the start of the film. When Logan hears that Natasha faked a lead to Bruce there, he wonders why Ross would fall for that kind of tip, because Bruce hiding in a [[WretchedHive favela]] would be stupid for person looking for peace and tranquility.

* RealityEnsues: A SuperSoldier's HealingFactor works so fast that it occasionally has its drawbacks, like broken bones knitting themselves back together in the wrong place and then having to be broken again so that they can be reset properly. As seen when [[spoiler: Schmidt suffers this during the fight in Wakanda]].

** Diana makes reference to [[Franchise/{{Blade}} the Daywalker]] when discussing vampires.

** When asked if vampires are real, Diana confirms that there are several vampire species in existence but they are generally dealt with by their own enemies, privately musing that [[Franchise/{{Blade}} the Daywalker]] has things under control most of the time.

** Following the events of ''Film/CaptainMarvel2019'', Carol gave the Tesseract to Diana for safekeeping, who in turn sent it to Thermyscira for the Amazons to protect rather than returning it to SHILED.

* TheCameo: Elon Musk appears at the racetrack where Vanko attacks Tony.

** Obadiah Stane and the Ten Rings are [[spoiler:being manipulated by Circe]].

* {{Irony}}: Tony wonders if this applies to [[spoiler:Stane’s final fate, as the man dies after becoming the very power source he tried to steal from Tony]].

* AgeLift: Basically; while some adaptations of Spider-Man state that Ben Parker fought in the Second World War, this would make him too old to match the May Parker seen in the [=MCU=], so instead his and Richard's father fought in the war.

* ThereIsNoKillLikeOverkill: With [[spoiler:a fully-powered arc reactor available, Tony manages to completely vaporise the upper half of the Iron Monger armor (after Stane has been removed from it) with a full-powered blast from the chest repulsor]].

* WildGooseChase: [[spoiler:SHIELD manage to do this to General Ross, planting a series of fake clues to lead him to Rio de Janeiro searching for Bruce Banner while Bruce was actually hiding in Alaska]].

** Just the news that the Godkiller is interested in their activities is enough to ensure that most supernatural entities will start talking.
