3 | !!''Plural Progressive'' contains examples of: |
4 | * ArchEnemy: King Sombra considers Twilight Sparkle his. |
5 | * BadPowersBadPeople: King Sombra is a villain, and has a spell capable of possessing a target, which brings the plot into motion. |
6 | * BigBad: The plot is driven by King Sombra's attempted possession of Twilight Sparkle, which just so happens to have affected the wrong pony. |
7 | * DemonicPossession: King Sombra originally planned to possess Twilight Sparkle, but ends up accidentally possessing Dinky Doo instead. |
8 | * DidntSeeThatComing: King Sombra [[LampshadeHanging lampshades]] that, while he prepared to face resistance from Twilight Sparkle, he did not expect Dinky Doo to simply punch herself in the face. |
9 | * EmergencyMultifaithPrayer: Dinky Doo's thoughts upon being possessed: |
10 | ->'''Dinky Doo:''' ''[thinking]'' OH CELESTIA OH LUNA CADANCE MISS SPARKLE SAPPHIRE SHORES WHATEVER THE GRIFFON GOD IS HELP ME HELP ME GET IT OUT GET IT OUT GET OUT OF MY HEEEEEEEAD |
11 | * EvilCannotComprehendGood |
12 | * EvilSoundsDeep: King Sombra's voice is normally deep, though it [[InopportuneVoiceCracking cracks several times]] when he tries to use it while possessing Dinky Doo. |
13 | * FightingFromTheInside: Dinky Doo's first reaction to being possessed is punching herself in the face. |
14 | * FirstPersonPerspective: The story is told from King Sombra's perspective. |
15 | * HoldYourHippogriffs: Par for the course for a ''My Little Pony'' fanfic. ''Plural Progressive'' uses the likes of "hoof" instead of "hand," "moondamned" instead of "goddamned," and "damn you to the moon" instead of "damn you to hell." |
16 | * InopportuneVoiceCracking: King Sombra remarks that his first words while possessing Dinky Doo sound like "a pathetic little foal ''trying'' to sound like [him]. And ''failing''," since her voice manages to crack on all of them. |

22 | * RepressiveButEfficient: King Sombra describes his former rule of the Crystal Empire as this. |
23 | ->'''King Sombra:''' ''[narrating]'' When I ruled over them, they called me a tyrant. From impure crystal I carved a city of glass, an empire of steel, and when they witnessed my power they wept for lack of their own, crawled sniveling back to the gods I had rendered obsolete. They begged for freedom instead of progress, comfort instead of security. [...] For the good of my empire I sealed it [the Crystal Heart] away, and when the little ponies found me I showed them a world free of willfulness: docile, efficient, incorruptible. |
24 | * SharingABody: To King Sombra's frustration, Dinky Doo has as much control of her body as he does. |
25 | * SilenceYouFool: Said verbatim as King Sombra's first words to Dinky Doo. Of course, since he's using her voice and trying to sound like himself, [[InopportuneVoiceCracking her voice cracks on every single word]]. |
26 | * ThisIsGonnaSuck: King Sombra's reaction to seeing a vase fall on Dinky Doo: "I don’t even bother trying to move. There’s no point. Mortal life is pain." |
27 | * TrappedInTheHost |
28 | * VengefulGhost: [[EvilOverlord King Sombra]] [[NotQuiteDead returns]] as a ghost after his [[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS3E2TheCrystalEmpirePart2 defeat in the cartoon]], planning to take revenge on Twilight Sparkle by [[DemonicPossession possessing her]] and using her body to take down [[TheGoodKingdom Equestria]]. Unfortunately for him, [[MistakenIdentity he possesses the wrong pony]]. |
29 | * VillainPossessedBystander |
30 | * VillainProtagonist: The narrator and main character is King Sombra, who plans to possess Twilight Sparkle, take over Equestria, and enslave every pony therein. |
31 | * YouCouldHaveUsedYourPowersForEvil: King Sombra considers Twilight Sparkle defeating him "stunt[ing] her potential." |
32 | ->'''King Sombra:''' ''[narrating]'' In a different world we could have been allies, but in this one she stunted her potential [[EvilCannotComprehendGood for the sake of those she thinks are her friends]]. |
