These examples of Surprisingly Realistic Outcome seem to violate at least one of these rules, which disqualifies them: No character reactions (characters get angry, don't forgive, don't change their personality instantly, etc.); Too fantastical (depends on the properties of magic, powers, sci-fi tech, monsters, etc.); Not surprising (a character was warned about the outcome, it's used to provide Karma or An Aesop, or it simply follows normal conventions for this genre or medium); Plot happens (the example only describes an event, but not why audiences would expect a different, unrealistic outcome); Not an outcome (a character just explains why something wouldn't work as expected); More of a Deconstruction (the event has major, lasting effects on the plot, make something more realistic, but not completely realistic, or a parody/fanwork applies realistic consequences to the events of a different work); or fits better under a different trope. See the trope's definition for more details. If you believe a removal was a mistake, please bring it up in the cleanup thread

* SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome: While Ginny and Milikan each enjoyed the idea of role-playing on their honeymoon, their initial attempt failed because they didn't have a good backstory for the scenario (Ginny as a mermaid-turned-human who falls for a snake); when they next attempt role-play, they perform a more detailed scenario with Ginny as a variation of Princess Leia to give them a character and history to build on.

* MoreThanMindControl: A somewhat positive example of this; when Milikan hears Ginny whisper that she loves Milikan while she's in a natural sleep, without any prompting from the snake, it is proof that, in whatever part of her mind is unaffected by the hypnosis, some part of Ginny's un-hypnotised self truly loves Milikan on her own.

*TheDreaded: Milikan is quietly terrified when she realises that her old foe Simora might be in the area.
*EvilCannotComprehendGood: Simora is another of Milikan’s kind, but he and others like him cannot understand why Milikan would keep Ginny as a servant rather than eat her or make her a permanent slave.
*EvilCounterpart: Simora is a dark contrast to Milikan, regarding humans as slaves at best and food at worst.
*FakeMemories: Milikan’s hypnosis implants false memories that she and Ginny were friends when Ginny was a little girl, the two meeting when Ginny was seven years old until Milikan vanished when Ginny was nine.
*FeatherBoaConstrictor: When they’re alone, Ginny will sometimes ‘wear’ Milikan, either draped over her body or coiled around her.

*HappilyMarried: Even under Milikan’s hypnosis, Ginny still loves and treasures her relationship with Harry and her children.
*HappinessInMindControl: Milikan’s hypnosis basically programs Ginny to regard Milikan as both her Mistress and her best friend. However, it should be noted that Milikan leaves most of Ginny’s original personality alone, as Ginny remains in love with Harry and devoted to her children.
*HappinessInSlavery: From Ginny’s perspective, as her false memories include the events that led to her asking to be Milikan’s servant rather than just a friend, even as Milikan assures Ginny that she is a treasured and valued servant.

*InSpiteOfANail: Flashbacks reveal that Harry and Ginny started dating earlier than they did in canon in this world, but although Sirius was saved from his death in the Department of Mysteries, he died in the final Battle of Hogwarts.
*IncapableOfDisobeying: The only clear rule Milikan insists Ginny ‘must’ obey is not to tell anyone else about Milikan’s presence in her life, but she otherwise makes it clear that Ginny is always free to tell her ‘no’, and understands when Ginny makes it clear she wouldn’t leave her family even if Milikan ordered her.
*InterspeciesRomance: Basically defied; even when Milikan recalls past male partners, she acknowledges that she’s incapable of thinking about doing anything sexual with them. She has enough understanding of human sexuality to respect Ginny imposing certain boundaries on what parts of her body Milikan can touch when Ginny’s naked in her presence.
*MindControlEyes: After she falls under Milikan’s influence, Ginny’s eyes become a swirl of colours, but when she is with others her eyes return to normal, and she can’t see the spirals when she looks in mirrors even when she’s on her own.
*NippleAndDimed: Not literally, but while Ginny has no problem being naked around Milikan, even under hypnosis she initially makes it clear to her Mistress that certain parts of her body are ‘reserved’ for Harry, although Milikan can help her wash those parts when they’re showering together.
*ParentalSubstitute: Milikan’s flashbacks reveal that she took on a parental role for one of her past servants while the girl’s parents were on holiday and her only guardians were an aunt and uncle who occasionally visited. Milikan’s influence compelled the girl to become less of a rebellious brat, lose some weight and be more polite to her parents even after Milikan left.
*PlayingDoctor: This could basically describe why Ginny is so comfortable being naked around Milikan, as she remembers them meeting when she was seven years old and even sharing baths together.
*PublicBathhouseScene: Ginny has no problem sharing a shower or a bath with Milikan, although obviously Milikan never wears clothes in the first place.
*SkinnyDipping: Some of Ginny and Milikan’s bonding moments occur when they’re swimming together, Ginny stripping down rather than bringing a swimsuit so long as they’re alone.
*SnakesAreSexy: Basically applies as Ginny is ‘attracted’ to Milikan, even if it can be linked to Milikan’s influence rather than Ginny having such desires on her own.
*TakeAThirdOption: Despite the obvious ‘risk’ of such a scenario, Milikan makes it clear from the beginning that she only asks Ginny to keep her existence secret, and assures Ginny that she will not have to choose between her husband (Harry) or her mistress (Milikan).
*TalkingAnimal: Milikan is fully capable of talking to humans without the need for Parseltongue.
*ThisIsMyHuman: Milikan is the Mistress where Ginny freely considers herself the snake’s servant.
*WeakWilled: Defied; some of Milikan’s past servants succumbed to her fairly quickly, but it took some time for Milikan to properly hypnotise Ginny in their first meeting, and Milikan reflects more than once that she admires Ginny’s strength of character, such as how Ginny retains her love for her family.

The hypnosis also makes Ginny feel more genuinely happy overall, to the extent that she is noted as always being slightly horny whenever she thinks about Harry while under its influence or when in Milikan’s direct presence.
*HappilyMarried: Even under Milikan’s hypnosis, Ginny still loves and treasures her relationship with Harry and her children.
*HappinessInMindControl: Milikan’s hypnosis basically programs Ginny to regard Milikan as both her Mistress and her best friend. However, it should be noted that Milikan leaves most of Ginny’s original personality alone, as Ginny remains in love with Harry and devoted to her children.
*HappinessInSlavery: From Ginny’s perspective, as her false memories include the events that led to her asking to be Milikan’s servant rather than just a friend, even as Milikan assures Ginny that she is a treasured and valued servant.
*HypnoticEyes: Milikan’s main power, outside of being able to talk to humans.
*InSpiteOfANail: Flashbacks reveal that Harry and Ginny started dating earlier than they did in canon in this world, but although Sirius was saved from his death in the Department of Mysteries, he died in the final Battle of Hogwarts.
*IncapableOfDisobeying: The only clear rule Milikan insists Ginny ‘must’ obey is not to tell anyone else about Milikan’s presence in her life, but she otherwise makes it clear that Ginny is always free to tell her ‘no’, and understands when Ginny makes it clear she wouldn’t leave her family even if Milikan ordered her.
*InterspeciesRomance: Basically defied; even when Milikan recalls past male partners, she acknowledges that she’s incapable of thinking about doing anything sexual with them. She has enough understanding of human sexuality to respect Ginny imposing certain boundaries on what parts of her body Milikan can touch when Ginny’s naked in her presence.
*MindControlEyes: After she falls under Milikan’s influence, Ginny’s eyes become a swirl of colours, but when she is with others her eyes return to normal, and she can’t see the spirals when she looks in mirrors even when she’s on her own.
*NippleAndDimed: Not literally, but while Ginny has no problem being naked around Milikan, even under hypnosis she initially makes it clear to her Mistress that certain parts of her body are ‘reserved’ for Harry, although Milikan can help her wash those parts when they’re showering together.
*ParentalSubstitute: Milikan’s flashbacks reveal that she took on a parental role for one of her past servants while the girl’s parents were on holiday and her only guardians were an aunt and uncle who occasionally visited. Milikan’s influence compelled the girl to become less of a rebellious brat, lose some weight and be more polite to her parents even after Milikan left.
*PlayingDoctor: This could basically describe why Ginny is so comfortable being naked around Milikan, as she remembers them meeting when she was seven years old and even sharing baths together.
*PublicBathhouseScene: Ginny has no problem sharing a shower or a bath with Milikan, although obviously Milikan never wears clothes in the first place.
*SkinnyDipping: Some of Ginny and Milikan’s bonding moments occur when they’re swimming together, Ginny stripping down rather than bringing a swimsuit so long as they’re alone.
*SnakesAreSexy: Basically applies as Ginny is ‘attracted’ to Milikan, even if it can be linked to Milikan’s influence rather than Ginny having such desires on her own.
*TakeAThirdOption: Despite the obvious ‘risk’ of such a scenario, Milikan makes it clear from the beginning that she only asks Ginny to keep her existence secret, and assures Ginny that she will not have to choose between her husband (Harry) or her mistress (Milikan).
*TalkingAnimal: Milikan is fully capable of talking to humans without the need for Parseltongue.
*ThisIsMyHuman: Milikan is the Mistress where Ginny freely considers herself the snake’s servant.
*WeakWilled: Defied; some of Milikan’s past servants succumbed to her fairly quickly, but it took some time for Milikan to properly hypnotise Ginny in their first meeting, and Milikan reflects more than once that she admires Ginny’s strength of character, such as how Ginny retains her love for her family.
