* BuxomIsBetter: Claret's dress especially emphasizes her assets, and Axis does seem to prefer her for this very reason. Rhys also makes a point of stating that his fiancee has a lovely (massive) set.

* CastFullOfGay: It ''is'' a yaoi webcomic, after all. Although WordOfGod has confirmed most of the major characters to be bi, with only two fully gay characters (both male).
** Once Upon a Time: [[http://demon-sushi.com/cry-some-more/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/teahouse_1.jpg Everyone was gay]]. (Redubbed/commented parody/MSTK/something.)

* DearNegativeReader: Two. After people complained about them not uploading often enough ([[http://demon-sushi.com/cry-some-more/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/bitchfit1.png here]]) and when they were accussed of being racist for not having any non-white characters except a background servant ([[http://demon-sushi.com/cry-some-more/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/lookidrewablackpersonimnotracist.png here]]).

The incident suggests neglect and recklessness more than abuse. This is virginity prised by people, not nature. No chained sinkholes.


* AbusiveParents: It's implied during the flashback's that Xanthe's father was a cold, strict and ruthless parent who had no patience for normal childishness and once gave Xanthe a black eye. It also seems like his parenting tragically worked very well, because Xanthe grew up into a similar man. (And naturally, this backstory is a major factor as to why fangirls [[DracoInLeatherPants excuse Xanthe's actions]].)
** Not to mention Linneus's father, who sold him to the Teahouse at the age of five (''on his birthday'') to pay for a gambling debt.

* AnachronismStew: ''AND HOW''. Even barring the unusual to the downright surreal mixings of victorian and modern clothing (Axis being a major offender) the comic also features cigarettes with filters, crossbows with infrared scopes, and ''plastic bags''.



* ArtisticLicenseBiology: Remy and Rory are identical twins even though one is a boy and one is a girl, so it's impossible to have the same biological make-up. [[http://s23.postimg.org/fnin1zdij/image.png So they have the same make-up while not.]]

* PoorCommunicationKills: [[spoiler: In Chapter 5 Atros tries to sell Linneus's contract to Liard, Linneus's longtime client. When Linneus yells at him for treating him like property and not like a person, Atros levels him with an accusation that Linneus chose to become a courtesan eight years prior instead of being with Atros, when Atros's father gave him the ultimatum. Whether or not this accusation is true or not is still unclear, as Linneus ran away from the argument without refuting it, and then is shown in Chapter 6 still entertaining clients and still not have resolved this issue with Atros.]]

* YouGottaHaveBlueHair: Rhys and Evelyn have blue, Atros and Mercutio, both young men, grey; Claret green, Linneus soft pink, Rory bright flaming red. Axis, another redhead, seems to have naturally dark hair judging from his eyebrows and roots (confirmed by [[WordOfGod the authors]]). All in all the cast is very colourful in the hair department.
