Just for the record: The tropes were originally arranged by rough chronological order they occur in a generic story. Then someone came and messed up that order for the ISO standard alphabetic sorting...
Is there a trope for when, for some reason, multiple teams shuffle members? So like, one team has Alice, Bob, and Carrie, and the other has Ray, Sam, and Tina, and in one episode, Bob works with Tina, Carrie works with Ray, and Alice works with Sam. Either involuntarily (e.g. they got split up that way) or voluntarily (e.g. they all went camping together and split up tasks that way), it gives the viewers a chance to see them interacting with characters they usually don't. And if they're enemies/rivals, it could make them sympathize a bit more with each other. Trope for this?
I made this Idolized Julius Kingsley icon back when Akito first came out, and now that the crossover is actually happening, I don't care.
