First off, let me explain that this whole involvement of Nickelodeon is exactly the reason why the true version of Monster Collection Chronicles will have its own website, rather than be hosted on Fanfiction.net. Stuff will be modified for the FF.net version, so that readers have a choice whether to read it authentically or avoid anything that involves Nick.

A few years ago, for a short while, I would come home from school, with Marie being the only one already home and the TV turned on and set on Nickelodeon. After a few times this had happened, I asked Marie why the TV was even on when she wasn't watching anything, and why of all things it was on that particular channel. I think the answer to the first question had something to do with creating a lively atmosphere, instead of sitting in a silent house (don't quite remember). However, she answered the latter question that Nickelodeon does not advertise horror movies.
Needless to say, one should have no trouble seeing the irony behind that.

For the past several days, I've been viewing all kinds of good stuff on YouTube and elsewhere online, but most notably, there's a certain page on TV Tropes & Idioms, which part of this entry is named after. But, here's a few other things that are relevant to this post.
(DO NOT click the links or the lj-cut if you can't handle disturbing stuff like this! I'll tell you right now, we are not talking about anything lame like Are You Afraid of the Dark? or that stupid monster cartoon!)
1) The first in a series of gameplay videos for House of the Dead 2.
2) A deleted version of the final battle in Mother 3.
3) The background music to Stage 8 (the Alien Hive) in Contra IV.
4) A cutscene from Parasite Eve, of a rat suffering mutation.
5) A similar transformation from Parasite Eve 2, this time of something that took human form beforehand.
Y'know, stuff like this really turns me the fuck on! Remember when I brought up Nickelodeon last summer? Well, yeah! That's exactly what the second fic is all about: How to create something dark and edgy out of something that's normally comical or lighthearted in real life.
Now for the real shit!
Katsuo might do some horrifying stuff before and during the first fic in Monster Collection Chronicles, but compared to what's going to happen in the second fic, what he does is actually pretty benign.
( WARNING: Graphic violence, stuff involving Nickelodeon (duh!), and spoilers for the second fic to Monster Collection Chronicles )
On a final note, the song that I linked to with #3... That could be the opening theme for this whole arc, if Monster Collection Chronicles were an actual sequel to Mon Colle Knights.
