* BrattyHalfPint: Betty Blue and Muffet are this. Also the twins in the past.

* AmbiguousSitutation: Because Coco is a HeroicMime, it is never made clear if she is unaware or in denial that [[spoiler:she is [[DeadAllAlong a ghost]]]] or if she knew all along and just did not tell the boy and Lyell.

* AllOfTheOtherReindeer: [[spoiler: Coco was mistreated in the household due to her status as a bastard child. The tutor often scolded her, the servants berated her for everything and the pureblood daughters constantly mocked her and destroyed her things.]]

* CheerfulChild: The Little Boy [[spoiler: who happens to be the younger Lyell]].
* DeadAllAlong: [[spoiler: Coco has been dead for 50 years. She's either unaware of her death or she's been denying it for quite awhile. Either way, she's finally able to pass on in the GoldenEnding after Lyell returns her precious notebook.]]

* HeroicMime: Coco has no dialogue lines of her own; the player only learns what she says via occasional dialog options and other characters' responses. This is part of her character, as she is apparently a rather quiet person.
* FairytaleMotifs: Most of the characters are references to nursery rhymes.
** Coco is inspired from ''Who Killed Cock Robin?''.

* IntergenerationalFriendship: Between Coco and Lyell. It's complicated, since it's revealed that [[spoiler: Lyell met Coco when he was a child and Coco has been around as a ghost for 50 years.]]
* ItsProbablyNothing: [[spoiler: When young Lyell met Coco in the past, he proceeded to tell his grandfather about it. Unbeknownst to him, the man used to be Coco's OnlyFriend in the past and was still affected by her death. Not understanding why his grandfather was crying at the mention of Coco, he decided to pretend nothing happened and forgot about her for 10 years.]]

* OnlyFriend: [[spoiler: The gardener boy was this to Coco, since nobody else wanted to be friends with her because she was a bastard child.]]
