She also walks around the girl's locker room in just her bra and panties... Good thing for [[PapaWolf her brother and her two best friends]], willing to protect her innocence as much as possible.

!!Tropes:
* {{Absent Minded Professor}} - Feliciana and Lovina's grandfather. He's the principal of the high school, but that doesn't make him any more responsible and less Feli-like than he is in ''Hetalia''...
* {{Absurdly Youthful Mother}} - Antonio's mother started off as this, because she gave birth to Antonio while she was still high-school age.
* {{Abusive Parents}} - Lovina and Feliciana's mother would regularly neglect Lovina, letting her do whatever she wanted even though she was only four years old. She didn't even care when [[spoiler:Lovina broke her leg]], and said that it was her own fault. The girls' father might be this as well; it's never exactly made clear.
* {{Accent Adaptation}} - Even on the series' Formspring account, each character types the way they would speak (for example, Francis sprinkles his answers with French, and Feliks uses Valley Girl typing.)
* {{Accidental Kiss}}
* {{Accidental Pervert}} - There are apparently pictures of Ludwig and Feli in a "compromising position". These are used for blackmail purposes by Gill.
* {{Action Girl}} - Arguably both Ally and Gill are this, because they both play a lot of sports and are very active.
* ACupAngst - Lovina has this, apparently. She is never stated as actually being small-chested, just that her bra size is smaller than her sister's.
* {{Adorkable}} - Leon. And Antonio. And Ludwig. And probably Mattie, too.
* {{Adult Child}} - Mr. Roma
* {{Aerith And Bob}} - Justified in that this is a fanfic and she can only use the characters' real names, but ... in how many schools can there be a Sadiq, a Lovina, and a Feliciana alongside an Arthur, a Francis, and an Ally?

* {{Badass Adorable}} - Antonio, at the age of six, [[spoiler:destroys an entire treehouse all by himself with an ax]] because someone made fun of "his" Lovi.

* {{Big Fancy House}} - Francis lives in one of these.
* {{Big Ol Eyebrows}} - Arthur
* {{Bilingual Bonus}} - Antonio breaks into Spanish sometimes. Feli and Lovi speak Italian sometimes. The biggest offender is Francis, who frequently breaks out into French.

* {{But Not Too Foreign}} - All the kids (except for Antonio, Ally, and Mattie) appear to have been born in the same town. Antonio moved there when he was about four. Ally and Mattie were born elsewhere in the United States. Sort of subverted in that pretty much each set of siblings is a different nationality.
* {{Butt Monkey}} - Leon, Arthur, and Ludwig all have moments when they are this. Particularly Leon, as he often [[GenreSavvy points out]].
* {{Camp Gay}} - Feliks in ''Just a Little Push''.
* {{Catchphrase}} - Gill's is "awesome".

* {{Child Prodigy}} - Gill was able to draw an extremely accurate bird on the wall when she was in kindergarten.

* {{Chivalrous Pervert}} - Arthur and, on occasion, Francis. Francis will do pretty much anything that moves (in one of the one-shots, he flirts with a boy on one side and a girl on the other), but he was still one of the first to help when [[spoiler: Lovina was pushed into the lake]].
* {{Class Trip}} - In ''Just a Little Push''.
* {{Clingy Jealous Girl}} - Lovina wouldn't even let Gill ''talk'' to Antonio when they were little kids.
* {{Cloud Cuckoolander}} - Feliciana is this. To the extreme, to the point where she should be {{Too Dumb To Live}}. Black.Rose.Authoress has even [[WordOfGod mentioned]] that she has a hard time writing from Feliciana's point-of-view.

* {{Dating What Daddy Hates}} - This is the whole reason why Arthur [[spoiler:sleeps with]] Francis.
* {{A Day in the Limelight}} - Kiku and Yong Soo both have chapters told from their perspective in ''Just a Little Push''.

* {{Ditz}} - Feliciana is this to the extreme.
* {{Does Not Understand Sarcasm}} - Feliciana.
* {{Doting Parent}} - Gill and Ludwig's parents, and Antonio's mother, are this. So is Lovina and Feliciana's grandfather.

* {{Foreign Cuss Word}} - Antonio's mother of all people uses one in one of the stories after [[spoiler: Antonio's father calls]].
* {{Free Range Children}} - In ''Tomatita''.
* {{French Jerk}} - Francis actually manages to mostly avert this. Appears to be played straight with his parents, though, who can't even be bothered to remember how old their only son even ''is'' (for example, buying him a car for his 15th birthday).
* {{Freudian Excuse}} - Francis has an excuse for his sexual behavior. See {{Break The Cutie}} for more.
* {{Friend to All Children}} - Big Mike. And apparently Leon as well. Must run in the family...

* {{Vague Age}} - The authoress herself, when asked about it, has said that she hadn't really decided on exact ages for any of the characters (she has since made up her mind, but the discrepancies are still there, particularly in the earlier stories).
