* {{Sampling}}: Uses samples often in her music: for instance, "Springtime is Here" samples ''Theatre/TheRiteOfSpring'' and "[mapplethorpe]" samples the UsefulNotes/PhilipsCDi opening sound.
* ShoutOut: ''The Flowers of Robert Mapplethorpe'' is named after a notorious UsefulNotes/PhilipsCDi title that consists solely of an interactive slideshow of the eponymous photographer's flower pictures. Fitting this, the opening track samples the [=CD-i's=] startup jingle. The album cover is a furry version of [[https://www.tate.org.uk/art/artworks/mapplethorpe-jim-sausalito-ar00198 Mapplethorpe's 1977 piece ''Jim, Sausalito'' (Link NSFW).]]

* {{Ambient}}: ''Task'', ''Crocus'', ''The Good Night'', ''Photo 4'', ''Astral'', ''Telecommunications'', ''Cicada'', ''Summer Drones'', ''My Lady'', ''Sky Simplified'', ''Techdog''...
* AuthorAvatar: Uses a painting of a girl holding a paintbrush in her mouth to represent herself. Partway through her ''VideoGame/MarbleBlastGold'' video, she changes to her "puppy rantsona", a Pomeranian wearing a tiara.
* ConceptAlbum: Many of her albums have an underlying story to them, including ''The Flowers of Robert Mapplethorpe''. The Tradische Ballet series (Gelb, Rosa, Schwarz) is based upon an avant garde ballet of the same name.

* EpicRocking: Many of her songs are over 10 minutes long, and some (for example ''Dance Odyssey'') constitute the entire album. Techdog 1-7, when listened to in one go, is twelve hours long.

* StopBeingStereotypical: In "The Autistic Horror of Don't Hug Me I'm Scared", where Patricia sarcastically riffs on herself for being an example of the common stereotype that furries are autistic:

* GenreBusting: Her primary genre takes inspiration from ElectronicDanceMusic, AlternativeRock and NoisePop, but isn't exactly describable as any one of those in particular.

* {{Ambient}}: Delves into this genre with her album ''Task''.

* SelfDeprecation: Somewhat used in "The Autistic Horror of Don't Hug Me I'm Scared":
-->''I'm pretty sure I've said this before, but that's me. I'm autistic.''\\

''[[SarcasmMode I'm sure this is incredibly shocking news for you.]]''

* ShoutOut: Uses samples often in her music: for instance, "Springtime is Here" samples ''Theatre/TheRiteOfSpring'' and "[mapplethorpe]" samples the Philips [=CDi=] opening sound.

* SoBadItsGood:[[invoked]] In the ''2020 Celeste Spring Community Collab'', she highlight Crumbling Castle as an interestingly bad level.

* ArchivePanic: Her Bandcamp lists ''67'' albums, the first having been released in late 2015. An average of about 9 albums a year!

* OriginalFlavor: While she views most of ''The 2020 VideoGame/{{Celeste}} Spring Community Collab'' through the lens of being a {{fanfiction}} for {{video game}}s, she shouts out certain levels for reasonably looking as if they could be in the base game, such as Azurite Ascent or Sattelite
* RunningTheAsylum: Invoked and discussed during the ''VideoGame/MarbleBlastGold'' video, in which she elaborates that 'VideoGame/MarbleBlastPlatinum'' is "all the best and worst things that happen when you let your core playerbase design a game without any supervision". At its worst, the fannish elements can be seen as intrusive and poorly-thought through (for example, the multiple surface types with little to distinguish them, or the game tutorializing the DiagonalSpeedBoost, which implicitly requires that you intentionally invoke CameraScrew), and the game doesn't feel like it's been designed to play in a way that best utilizes its engine, such as with the multiple "janitor" levels where you do nothing but run around a bare play area and pick up all the gems with little challenge in the way of the terrain. At its best, it teaches and makes use of {{Advanced Movement Technique}}s that are actually fun to use (Patricia cites the wallbounce as an example, as players will intuitively how their marble's spin should cause it to bounce off of surfaces, and a WallJump is a natrual endpoint of this learning), and levels such as Phil's display an amazing understanding of the physics engine and how his dedication has led to hard, but amazingly crafted level design.

* ScrappyMechanic:[[invoked]] Believes ''VideoGame/MarbleBlastPlatinumQuest'' fails to work because of the new gimmick objects scattered throughout it:

* WordSaladLyrics: "EEEAAAOOO" contains a simple repeating stanza with lyrics that are barely legible without the sheet due to extreme vocal processing.
