** Surprisingly he's one to [[spoiler:Amelia]], [[spoiler:both were determined to be with someone again -- Alrich for Amelia and MT for Jesse -- but while Amelia's intentions had long-lasting consequences and caused more harm then good -- Jesse's desires just to fulfill his promise to be with MT again ends up with both of them getting a happy ending.]]

!!Mirror Tulip aka "MT"/ [[spoiler:Lake]]

* BewareTheNiceOnes: Very nice and cheerful boy, a bit kooky and a pushover, but if you insult or endanger his friends, he drops the goofy act will not hesitate to step up to help his friends.

* BloodFromEveryOrifice: [[spoiler:Happens as he dies after MT takes her final blow on him.]]

* ManipulativeBastard: Whereas Mace employs direct force, Sieve is more subtle, using words and emotions to coax his targets. The best example is "The Toad Car", where Jesse and MT lock themselves in the titular car to hide from the Flecs. While Mace initially tries to kick the door down, Sieve opts to build rapport with Jesse by explaining why they're chasing MT, who she really is, and what she's after. Since MT has been abrasive and combative, this actually gets her and Jesse arguing, which buys Mace time to acquire a more powerful tool to bust their way in. Sieve even tries to convince Jesse to let into the cart via his phone's reflective screen, again demonstrating a more subtle approach to their goal.

* ManipulativeBastard: Whereas Mace employs direct force, Sieve is more subtle, using words and emotions to coax his targets. In "The Toad Car", when he and Mace are locked out of said car, with MT and Jesse stuck inside, he tries "talking" with Jesse, explaining who MT really is and her past, which is not helped by her fairly dour and combative personality. He actually gets them to start arguing concerning this, giving Mace time to grab a tool to force the door open; alternatively, he could convince Jesse to let them enter the cart through the reflective screen on his phone.

* BigBadDuumvirate: They're the main antagonists of Book 2, though Mace is the more senior and commanding of the pair.

* BodyMotifs: Hands. She's constantly staring at the palm of her hand to see her reflection, but it also [[JustForPun reflects]] her desire to obtain a number -- thus giving her the status of a passenger -- so she can leave the train.

* {{Foil}}: She's a [[JustForPun mirror]] for both regular Tulip and Jesse.

* VillainOfTheWeek: His antics with Alan Dracula's body become too much for [[JustForPun the poor deer]]. After MT gets Alan Dracula to sneeze him out, he's never seen or heard from again.

* WhatMeasureIsANonHuman: Her story in Book 2 involves what she's going to do because she's not a passenger (meaning she has no number of which to drop to zero then leave and she's not allowed to go to the real world by hitch-hiking), is constantly chased by the Mirror Police because she doesn't want to be a reflection, faces rejection everywhere she goes ("The Lucky Cat Car" has her win fewer points than Jesse on the basis that passengers get more because they have a bigger need to get leave the train) and deals with the fact that many passengers (like Grace and Simon) don't even see her as a living being, only a construct [[spoiler: to the point that One-One, ''the Conductor'', can't comprehend why she wants to leave and is given numerous slurs ("Sliver", "Null") to denote how lowly she's thought of by others. She has a breakdown about this in "The Tape Car:]]

!!Mirror Tulip aka "MT"

* SleevesAreForWimps: After buying a new shirt, she tears the sleeves off and spray paints it black.

** He's fond of naming animals after Literature/{{Dracula}}, whereas Tulip's original surname was Van Helsing -- Dracula's nemesis.

* DetrimentalDetermination: Despite his dogged pursuit of MT, she simply elects to avoid him, and at one point even tries to save him despite having good reason to leave him for dead. He ''still'' tries to kill her in spite of this. [[spoiler:By the time he tries to pull a TakingYouWithMe, MT's patience runs out and she wheels him ''herself''.]]

%%* UncannyValley: A completely normal looking dear that unexpectedly demonstrates shape shifting powers seemingly at random. Notably when he fell down the tree his body remained stiff hitting the branches on the way down like he was an inanimate object.

* AndThenWhat: Getting out and being her own person was one thing, but her storyline in Season 2 is her figuring out what to do next since she doesn't have the number of a typical passenger. [[spoiler: Mace even [[LampshadeHanging puts a lampshade on it]] in a BreakingSpeech, pointing out that even ''if'' MT found a way off the train and to the real world, a girl made of living metal with a magic deer won't be able to acclimatize into normal human society.]]

* ExpressiveMask: Their helmets and human suit masks match their expressions perfectly. [[JustifiedTrope Justified,]] [[TheFaceless since they're faceless otherwise,]] except for their mouths.

* BloodFromEveryOrifice: [[spoiler: Happens as he dies after MT takes her final blow on him.]]

* DeadHatShot: [[spoiler: Mace's hat is all that's left of him after the train's wheels grind him down into nothing.]]

--> ''"If all my time in this car has taught me one thing, the toad always gets kicked. It's the only truth I know."''

* AwesomeMcCoolName: As weird as it is, "Alan Dracula" is admittedly a pretty badass name for a deer.
