The Fourth Wall

From Yb Timeline

'"'Wait, wait, wait… THAT WASN’T EVEN IN THE SCRIPT! Crapud! I’ve broken the fourth wall so much, they’ve learned to go against the script!"

-Topmonhit (The Cloud), Topmonhit Story (Story 10: Unity of the Shadows; Part 10-23: Piggy Bells)

The Fourth Wall is a tool originally used in plays where a character would address the audience. Eventually, it became any use of a character referring to how the work was fictional in some way. We here at the wiki break the fourth wall so much, it has become a sort of all-use character, and it has even been used for plots.
