Useful Notes/ pages are not tropes


* TheBechdelTest: Not so much about whether Olivine Romance passes the test or not, but in-universe, Jasmine demonstrates her shrewishness/prudery by complaining about the fact that her own friends only ever talk about relationships (and try dragging her into the conversation).
