TRS wick cleanupNot Good With People has been renamed to Better With Non Human Company and disambiguated


* BetterWithNonHumanCompany: She's fine with fey creature since some of her childhood was spent in the Spirit World but, before Declan, she never tried interacting much with humans since they see her as weird for talking to plant spirits ([[InvisibleToNormals That they, of course, can't see]]). And even then, it took her awhile to remember who Declan was (Despite the fact he's know her since ''kindergarten''). Declan's also a bit of an exception because he's revealed to be a half human fairy later on.

Grumpy Bear is no longer a trope. Moving examples to other tropes when applicable.

* AttackAttackAttack!: Callie is notoriously stubborn and often gears up to clobber those who oppose her with zero hesitation, insisting despite Tom's chastising that she "likes violent smash-and-grabs" as a primary method of problem-solving.

Added DiffLines:

* TheBerserker: Brute force is her go-to method for problem-solving, often manifesting through attempts at stabbing her enemies, summoning a tidal wave of spirits as reinforcements, or using traditionally intricate ward magic as a catalyst for large-scale arson.
* BrilliantButLazy: In spite of her high magical aptitude and notable intelligence, Callie isn't known to apply herself to things she deems uninteresting. That being said, she often makes up for this with her impeccable improvisation skills and natural talent for various subjects and crafts.
* BrutalHonesty: Callie is about as blunt as they get, usually jumping straight to the point and telling people exactly what she thinks of them and their actions. This especially extends to those who serve as a danger to her or get on her bad side.
* CombatPragmatist: Heavily prioritizes results over methods, especially in combat. She openly scoffs at Tom's efforts to talk logistics in favor of rushing the enemy, stabs her own mother with zero hesitation to protect her friends and father, and is far from above kicking Asheron in the radishes while facing him in hand-to-hand combat.


Added DiffLines:

* DefiantCaptive: Her bluntness is anything but dulled while held in the clutches of dangerous beings. She regularly sasses any and all of the Cimmerians who irritate her while she and Lasser are confined to their manor.
* DrivesLikeCrazy: While never shown operating a traditional vehicle, she absolutely qualifies given her somewhat reckless use of spirit-powered hoverboards.


Added DiffLines:

* RebelliousSpirit: Callie is well-known to not enjoy operating by rules and is a chaotic-neutral weirdo to the core. This extends to defying school, Tom's over-protective tendencies, and the demands of those who wish to do her harm.

* ActionGirl: Callie is known to strike fear into the hearts of those who know her, and with good reason. She's resourceful, scrappy, a wielder of powerful muse magic, and capable of causing extensive damage with nothing but a pen and a pack of sticky notes.



* Attack!Attack!Attack!: Callie is notoriously stubborn and often gears up to clobber those who oppose her with zero hesitation, insisting despite Tom's chastising that she "likes violent smash-and-grabs" as a primary method of problem-solving.
* Attention-Deficit...Ooh,Shiny!: Callie's attention span is fairly short toward things she doesn't find interesting. She completely ignores Tom's ward-weaving lessons in favor of playing a video game and only started paying the subject any mind when she learned she could use it to set things on fire.

* DamselOutOfDistress: Noted a number of times as a "self-rescuing princess."

All while breaking free from the Cimmerians' heavily fortified mansion largely on her own.



* TheLeader: Serves as this to Declan, Lasser, and Radish. While they tend to operate more through semi-equal inputs of controlled chaos, when it comes time to make a final decision, it usually falls to Callie.



* OfficialCouple: Becomes one with Declan some time into the first season and remains as such through the remainder of the story.



* RedOni,BlueOni: The choleric, fiery red to Declan's phlegmatic, cautious blue.

* EnderinglyDorky: She loves her B-Movies and pop culture. Declan and she constantly go back and fourth on movie quotes and trivia. This was even used as plot point during the confrontation with Lyla as, since she obviously couldn't ask her father flat out if Lyla was immortal, instead coating it as a ''Lord of the Rings'' question ("Is Lyla a Saruman i.e: unkillable or a Witch King i.e mortal?"). Which Declan picked up on, asked Tom himself who confirmed the latter and Declan shouted back the answer.

But he loves reading and ultimately fell in love with romance novels, particularly ones involving VampireWerewolfLoveTriangle. He seems quite intrigued when being told of Tolken works and found Reality TV shows fascinating. Though still has trouble grasping things like Star Wars since, well, explaining sci-fi to a fantasy creature and all.
