9 | !!Woods for the Tropes: |
10 | * AmbiguouslyBi: [[spoiler: Reuben. Judging from his post-coitus conversation with Brian he could be demisexual.]] |
11 | * AnimalJingoism: Averted with most characters. It's even hinted at that Seamus (a dog) and Pippin (a cat) were once a thing. |
12 | * BigFun: Jess in the more recent strips; he has clearly gained weight but has not lost his chipper demeanour. |
13 | * BrilliantButLazy: Reuben is one of the most intelligent characters in the comic but his favorite thing to do is sleep all day. |
14 | * ButtMonkey: Everybody has these moments, though Jess and Bosco are probably the most prone. Reuben has fallen into this role a bit more recently [[spoiler: since Isabel blew up his house]]. |
15 | * TheCameo: Webcomic/{{Jack|DavidHopkins}} makes an appearance [[http://woodsforthetrees.thecomicseries.com/comics/143 here]]. |
16 | %%* CatsAreMean: Pippin. |
17 | * ChivalrousPervert: Bosco. Even though he's kind of sleazy, he shows signs of actually caring for most of the cast. -including Isabel, who is usually the unfortunate target of his advances (Most notably when he punches Selby for letting slip that [[spoiler: Isabel accidentally shot herself in the arse with a rifle]].). |
18 | %%* {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: Jess. |
19 | %%* ConMan: Brian can sometimes be this. |
20 | %%* DeadpanSnarker: Reuben. |
21 | * DistractedByTheSexy: Brian in [[http://woodsforthetrees.thecomicseries.com/comics/525 this]] strip, [[spoiler: where Isabel uses Reuben to get a discount on Cactus Food]]. |
22 | * TheDitz: For a border collie Jess isn't the brightest bulb in the box. Bosco is even worse but he has drug abuse as an excuse. |
23 | %%* EatingTheEyeCandy: See DistractedByTheSexy above. |
24 | %%* FatComicRelief: Jess, to an extent. |
25 | * GargleBlaster: Jess once made a "drink" he called the [[http://woodsforthetrees.thecomicseries.com/comics/76 "Jessenatoriser"]], it made him hallucinate, then it turned him into a werewolf. |
26 | * GroupHug: [[http://woodsforthetrees.thecomicseries.com/comics/18/ This]] strip. Though Isabel and Reuben don't seem to like it much. |
27 | %%* InterspeciesFriendship: The comic is ''full'' of this. |
28 | %%* InterspeciesRomance: Alluded to, but definately not unheard of. |
29 | %%* InTouchWithHisFeminineSide: Reuben. |
30 | %%* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Isabel at times. For example, [[http://woodsforthetrees.thecomicseries.com/comics/325/ here]]. |
31 | %%* {{Keet}}: Selby. |
32 | * LovingBully: WordOfGod has said this was [[spoiler: Isabel]] towards [[spoiler: Brian]] when they were younger. |
33 | * MustHaveCaffeine: Selby [[http://woodsforthetrees.thecomicseries.com/comics/145/ here]], [[http://woodsforthetrees.thecomicseries.com/comics/296/ here]] and alluded to [[http://woodsforthetrees.thecomicseries.com/comics/127/ here]]. |
34 | * NeverLearnedToRead: Jess, which is why he started going to school with a bunch of pups less than half his age (granted he's only two). |
35 | * OurWerewolvesAreDifferent: When Jess drinks the "Jessenatoriser" he becomes a werewolf of sorts. Needless to say, it's not a completely regular take on the werewolf scenario. |
36 | * PyroManiac: Leaving something flammable near Isabel is a recipe for disaster. |
37 | * ShoutOut: There are quite a few here and there, but the most notable example is Jess' toy penguin, Mr.Flibble (A shout out to Series/{{Red Dwarf}}.), who had a whole story arc about it going "missing". [[spoiler: In reality, Isabel had set fire to it]]. [[spoiler: Or that's atleast what you think at first. Reuben cunningly made a switch, and therefore Isabel never burned the toy in the first place]]. |
38 | %%* TheStoner: Jess' brother Bosco, who picked it up from his former owner. |
39 | %%* StraightGay: Brian. |
40 | %%* TricksterTwins: Riff and Suz |
41 | * TheUnfavorite: Jess seemed to have the impression that he was Seamus's least favorite son seeing how one of his brothers is a champion sheepdog and another is a bomb-sniffer while he is just a geeky pet. Then [[TheStoner Bosco]] moved back in. |
42 | %%* WebcomicTime: [[http://woodsforthetrees.thecomicseries.com/comics/402 Lampshaded]] |
43 | * YouDirtyRat: The cult leader from the "Anything for a female" story arc. [[spoiler: Who is actually a criminal using the cult as a ploy to kill and rob the members by making them drink poisoned Ribena.]] |
