* TroubledFetalPosition: They, mainly Vivienne when she's controlling their body, go into this position a couple times when Vivienne's confused or has just had a PTSD episode.



* FlatWhat: This is her mental first response when Mariko gives her the first clear hint that Serizawa is dead in Chapter 4.



* HistoryRepeats: It's eventually revealed that she's at risk of this happening to her if Ghidorah's plan for her comes to fruition. [[spoiler:Getting forcibly fused to another being to form a multi-headed Titan and furthermore being "caged" and tortured, is also Ghidorah's origin story, which culminated in Ghidorah eventually becoming the evil OmnicidalManiac it is]].



* PitifulWorms: A heroic case. She isn't immune to mentally calling Jonah and/or his men (who caused her and San a lot pain) "insects" when she's sufficiently enraged and is acting.



* RapeIsASpecialKindOfEvil: In [[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/13357907/16/Abraxas Chapter 16]], she finds herself sicker than ever before (and that is ''saying something'') when she realizes [[spoiler:Ghidorah intends to turn her into a BabyFactory for more monsters, with Ni/Elder Brother being more than happy to try exploiting this trope to break her mind]].

* TroubledFetalPosition: Besides the examples she and San have under the General folder, when she was human and Ghidorah was frozen, she was at one point reduced to curling into this position in the snow by exposure to Ghidorah's PsychicPowers.



* YouExclamation: She has one when she recognizes Jonah at the end of Chapter 2.



* CreateYourOwnHero: It's done this by planning before San's decapitation to bring Vivienne BackFromTheDead as a part-Ghidorah hybrid. If Ichi/Eldest Brother had just been able to settle for killing her and letting her stay dead, the course of events from when [[spoiler:Ghidorah starts regenerating]] would probably go differently.



* PetTheDog: [[spoiler:San-2/Youngest Brother at one point fleetingly attempts to {{exploit}} this trope when telepathically contacting Vivienne; but like the real San before the latter's CharacterDevelopment, he regards Vivienne more as a beloved toy to be cared for, and he ferociously intervenes when Ni/Elder Brother's Many-avatar causes too much damage to Monster X]].

* PitifulWorms: It's called humans, including a brave Bone Singer who communicated with it long ago when it was frozen, "insects".



* VillainousAromanticAsexual: {{Implied}}. Ghidorah obviously has no interest in emotional romantic bonds, and the closest it comes to an interest in sexual relations are it [[spoiler:developing a lust to see Vivienne's capacity for violence like Ghidorah's own, and it getting the idea based on humans' absorbed knowledge to forcibly make Vivienne a monster BabyFactory]].



* WouldHitAGirl: It fulfils this trope when, [[spoiler:despite not considering Monster X a threat, Ghidorah taunts Vivienne in particular by breaking her and San's legs ForTheEvulz; in Chapter 16]].



* CryIntoChest: [[spoiler:She does a cry-into-their-snout variation with Vivienne, who is likewise crying with her, in Chapter 15]].



* HeroicLineage: Somewhat {{downplayed}} in that he's not actually a member of Monarch and is rather HeroicNeutral, but Dr. Brooks lampshades in Chapter 11 that he's studying marine history including Titans.

* OriginalCharacter: The three of them are apparently not based on any characters or [[OCStandIn background extras]] from the Franchise/MonsterVerse canon.

They have a Shallow Effect in how they have no emotional attachment towards each-other, their Youngest Brother nor anything else.
