Whenever there's someone in the shadows, or a great height - any really stupid place to be - looking at the hero going away, and that person is laughing "ku ku ku ku" or something to that effect... my juvenile content meter just goes *sproing* and dies.
It's been done to the death. Stop doing it, authors.
I know, it's just that I'm ever so hopeful of authors having the guts to actually go beyond the tried and done.
Plus, I gotta account for brain farts. It happens to everyone. Hopefully after the stink goes away, the author would be able to come up with something better.
Still, the way things are going, it doesn't look good. Oh well.
@TheBlueCat the difference is that his companion doesn't know what he's going "ku-ku-ku" for, which changes the tone completely from (attempted) coolness, into comedy.
And new bad guy here wants to look all menacing but his loli (?) Partner ruins his moment looking another way trying to find MC...seems she has some trouble with directions.
