Cool Loser TRS cleanup, has been renamed to Unconvincingly Unpopular Character and is a YMMV audience reaction.


* CoolLoser: Everyone seems quite dismissive of Kung Shoe except Flibbage and the Queen (who uses them as bodyguards) but their instructor Prada-sensei was the only teacher hired based on actual competence. The others were hired primarily because it was safer than letting them run around loose.
** the story seems to have pegged Keti as the designated CoolLoser due to her PrimaryProtagonistSyndrome and [[FunnySchizophrenia Multiple Generic-induced Sanity Dysfunction]].

* GeniusDitz: Jin, especially after she's had sufficient caffeine and sugar.
* GenkiGirl: Jin once again, as well as Liame.
* GenreBlindness: Humans and weres have difficulty with the TheoryOfNarrativeCausality, to the point of occasional partial amnesia when a point is explained.
* GenreSavvy: Most of the fae are GenreSavvy and have a basic understanding of the TheoryOfNarrativeCausality. They teach it, but it only sticks well with fae. Humans and eveh half humans like Keti and Beansprout can only comprehend the subject with great difficulty and have difficulty retaining the information.

Dangerously Genre Savvy is being merged with Genre Savvy. Misuse and zero context examples will be cut.


* DangerouslyGenreSavvy: [[spoiler:Keti's elf side.]] Which makes sense, as the Fey are aware of the Plot.

* OddShapedPanel

to:

* OddShapedPanelOddShapedPanel: used primarily for action sequences



* ProtagonistCenteredMorality: a genuine occupational hazard for people who suffer from both Primary Protagonist Syndrome and MGSD. Flibbage appears to have invested a lot in converting Beansproat's protagonist centered morality to a relatively mild case of ItsAllAboutMe, if only for the good of the realm. Keti appears to have avoided this so far, having spent days crying over the price her friends (and Iordan in particular) paid to rescue her from her own insanity.

* SuperpoweredEvilSide

to:

* SuperpoweredEvilSideSuperpoweredEvilSide: Keti under the influence of the Sword, though her "superpowers" are really her protagonist, nymph, and werewolf powers unfettered by any inhibitions.



**Princess Flibbage deliberately tries to steer the narrative towards comedy for Keti's sake, and is very apologetic to Beansprout when her first attempt fails.



* ThickerThanWater

to:

* ThickerThanWaterThickerThanWater: Jin and Dan, Keti and her mother (surprisingly) averted with An and Kitty: An loves Kitty, but Kitty is too much of a sociopath to have true loyalty to her sister in return.

* AlwaysSaveTheGirl: Played with: the kids completely forget about rescuing Sparkle during their quest to retreive the sword and don't even realize they'd forgotten about her until she shows up weeks later to complain about it. Sorta-kinda played straight with Keti, though the other kids were as much interested in saving the whole world from her insanity as the were in saving Keti herself at that point.
