* AdaptationalVillainy: Although Simmons is heavily implied to be no less petty and evil than his canon portrayal, [[https://hrodvitnon.tumblr.com/post/675395664276078592/ Word of God]] reveals that this version is willing to cross a line that not even the [=MonsterVerse=] version crossed: [[OffingTheOffspring ordering his own daughter's assassination]]. His excuses about usurpation of Godzilla being necessary to mankind's survival among the Titans also fall even flatter in this universe, and it's revealed in ''Abraxas: The Clash of Silver'' that his plans for the Titans which Godzilla already pacified after he's usurped Godzilla are to have them {{lobotom|y}}ized and turned into [[LivingBattery living batteries]] for their environment-enriching effects.

* EvilInc: They're inadverse to criminal and [[IncompetenceInc stupidly careless]] activities, including Titan DNA trafficking and HalfHumanHybrid [[HumanTraffickers trafficking]], in the pursuit of a short-term profit.
* {{Greed}}: They only think about making money in the short term, even when it's to their detriment in the bigger picture and when their stupidity endangers their customers.
* IncompetenceInc: Saying this company doesn't think two steps ahead is being too kind. They release the externally-bought fertility treatment which they know is using Ghidorah's DNA, without so much as testing it for any side-effects first, and they do this ''after'' Monarch revealed what Jonah's other experiments with mixing Ghidorah's DNA into human bodies [[UndeadAbomination created]].

** Like Vivienne, Jonah tragically lost a loved one, but Vivienne is moving on from Serizawa's death whereas Jonah has allowed his loss to turn him into something cruel and wicked. Vivienne died committing a HeroicSacrifice to save her friend, whereas Jonah [[spoiler:essentially sacrificed ''his'']] to save himself, at the same time and place. Ghidorah's lingering influence pushes both Jonah and Vivienne toward SanitySlippage, but Jonah slips too far and too soon to escape his fate, unlike Vivienne. [[https://hrodvitnon.tumblr.com/post/735794879174672384/ Word of God]] compares Vivienne's depression in her HeroicBSOD to Jonah's more permanent nihilism, the difference being that Vivienne's depression was just a funk which she came back from unlike Jonah. Both ultimately [[spoiler:become fused to TwoBeingsOneBody Ghidorah hybrids]], but ironically, what's left of Jonah's mind [[SmugSnake thinks he's more important to]] [[spoiler:[[SmugSnake Ghidorah]]]] [[SmugSnake than he really is]], whilst Vivienne is the AntiAntichrist who attracts [[spoiler:Ghidorah]]'s ''very'' unwanted attention.


Added DiffLines:

* FakingTheDead: PlayedWith. She was presumed dead in the aftermath of Behemoth's escape during the Mass Awakening, and she evidently wasn't intent on rectifying that misinformation anytime soon.


Added DiffLines:

* {{Bouncer}}: PlayedWith – Maia’s personal bodyguard in Florida is very much the spitting image of the trope image.

* ThereAreNoTherapists: PlayedWith. She ''has'' been seeing a therapist about her trauma from the events of ''King of the Monsters'', but it never happens onscreen at all, plus it's stated that there's only so much that any professional shrink can do for Madison since most of them apparently didn't get training for Titan-related traumas.

* DumbassNoMore: Downplayed. The author's portrayal of Mark mostly seeing Madison as {{just a kid}} and preferring to speak for her rather than let her speak for herself is quite accurate to how the [=MonsterVerse=] canon Mark would later be characterized in ''Godzilla vs. Kong'' (although [=AbraxasVerse=] Mark still admits when his head's cool that he can't keep treating her like a child since she's becoming a teenager, which is the polar opposite of canon Mark's ''Godzilla vs. Kong'' viewpoint). [[spoiler:In the last couple chapters, [=AbraxasVerse=] Mark has grown more considerate of Madison's feelings and what he can and can't make her do, although he still needs a second opinion and some parenting advice from Dr. Brooks about her schooling, and the author's supplementary materials have implied that his relationship with Madison will continue to improve with time]].

* RuleOfThree: Precisely three women [[MedicalRapeAndImpregnate artificially inseminated]] [[spoiler:with a fertility drug made using Ghidorah's altered DNA]], and then practically gift-wrapped for a rescue operation to find and bring back to civilization.

In the non-canon HalloweenSpecial "Come Little Monster, I'll Take Thee Away", Ling holds Monster X's hand for some time when old feelings between her and Vivienne are stirring up and they're conversing intimately.
