Snapdragon is to be referred to by they/them pronouns on this wiki and never officially came out during the show's duration.


* DudeLooksLikeALady: [[SubvertedTrope A subverted example]]. Prior to coming out as trans, Snapdragon wears a mermaid costume for the Fall Festival whereupon Cal starts flirting with her, [[UnsettlingGenderReveal much to Cal's own disdain after finding out]]. In hindsight, this was just {{Foreshadowing}} of Snap's true gender identity.

I feel this trope is more fitting. Also, just to let you all know, we can use redirects like Only Known By His Nickname.

changing pronouns to they/them according to consensus reached in this thread


%%Consensus agreed to use they/them pronouns for Snapdragon. Please do not alter their pronouns without discussion. See https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=16586139930A35203700&page=1.



* InnocentlyInsensitive: After Snapdragon attempts to comfort her, she bluntly tells Snap that she would never understand that the bonds girls share [[TheUnfairSex is different than the ones shared by boys]] because she's a guy, not realizing that Snap is actually a transgirl struggling to decide if she should transition or not. Thankfully after a WhatTheHellHero moment from Snapdragon who grew fed up with what she was saying, Sage realizes how bad what she said was, and apologizes to Snapdragon for it.

* PlatonicLifePartners: She and Amaryllis are best friends, and while Snapdragon is shown to be attracted to girls, she scoffs lightly at the thought of her liking Amaryllis as anything more than a friend. Comparing her and Amaryllis' relationship to Sage and Rosemary's is part of the reason she believes Sage may have a crush on Rosemary.
* WeaponOfChoice: A rapier. At first she tries to use the axe given to her by her father, but Professor Hakone quickly realizes she is better suited to a different weapon so has Snap and Amaryllis swap weapons.
* YouthfulFreckles: Though it could be due to her pale skin and being a redhead, Snapdragon has freckles to symbolize that she's still currently adjusting to her true self.

Alphabetizing trope examples


* AmbiguouslyGay: What exactly are Sage's feelings for Rosemary is something even the show asks. Sage vehemently denies she has any feelings beside friendship for Rosemary, but she tends to be extremely possessive of her and once gets jealous of Rosemary crushing on another character. The only time she hangs out with other people it's usually to either complain about Rosemary or because she and Rosemary had a fight.

* KiddieKid: Is around the same age as his classmates, but has some childish mannerisms. He's most likely a late bloomer.
* TertiarySexualCharacteristics: He is drawn with female style eyelashes. While effeminate in appearance and voice (which he notes is something he's made fun of by his cousin [[TheBully Cal]]), he is surprisingly competent in combat.



* NoFullNameGiven: Inverted. Out of all the characters who are [[FirstNameBasis only ever referred to by one name]], he has the distinction of being introduced by Professor Caraway with his full name: Aster Tourmaline.
* OneShotCharacter: Exclusively appears in "Crushing Obstacles" and then never again, even though he's a student at the academy. He is referenced later at the end, but he has yet to appear since the aforementioned episode.
