Breaking the 'Fifth Wall'

When a character in a novel, comic/manga/magazine, television show, movie, video, etc. who is able to break all four of the previous walls moves off, through, or out of the story, screen, frame, etc. and appears in reality among the audience. The same would also work if the situation was vise versa
(While watching a Deadpool movie, Deadpool stops fighting and proceeds to walk off of the screen, and approaches behind you, Breaking the'Fifth Wall' of reality) "Hey kid, this guys getting to be a real annoyance, how about we make our thoughts touch tips real quick and see if there's a better way to beat him. Know what I mean? Wink, wink, nudge, nudge, twidle in your widdle." (After sharing ideas and theories you two come up with plans and he then walks away and reappears on screen looking at the camera) "Better work kid, I have to be back at grannies with an early White Christmas party or she'll kill me." (Deadpool proceeds to look back get out from behind cover and test the plan)

*Deadpool in this instance is Breaking the 'Fifth Wall' by Disappearing from the story and reappearing by the audience, yourself, and interacted with you in person in order to share thoughts and ideas to formulate a strategy, before going back in and utilizing said strategy.*

Break

Stupid and pointless

If you simply don’t wanna be with the person just break it off stop putting them through hell while you “do you” and the other person is forced to watch. A break is just an excuse to be selfish so you can hoe around but still keep the other person around.
Sarah : I’m sorry
Daniel : I think we need a break you’ve been acting crazy and I just need time to think
Sarah : you know I only act crazy because I’m scaredto lose you.

Daniel : I still loveyou but we just need a break
