* MythologyGag: The full names of both Laurel and her [[MyGrandsonMyself "mother"]] are "Eudora Mabel Lorelei" and "Mabel Tatiana", referencing various fairy queens from the works of Shakespeare and mythology. Since it's established that a lot of the literature that Laurel is based on actually exists in-universe, it's possible that she chose these names herself as a private joke.

Added an example from the trope page.

Added DiffLines:

* StrangerSafety: Played totally straight; the only people who actively seek to harm Polly are those who know who she is. She gatecrashes a funeral, pretends to be part of the (large) family, and befriends an adult man, who helps her get out of the party before people notice she isn't family. Sounds dangerous? Only becomes dangerous because his enemies are now her enemies.

No longer a trope.


* YourCheatingHeart:
** Polly's father Reg leaves Ivy for Joanna Renton after having been with both women for quite some time, and Ivy says that Joanna was far from the first.
** Though both were caused by Laurel's magic and were probably inadvertent, [[spoiler:Polly's grandfather still left Granny for Laurel, and Leslie did the same to Nina]].

** If you read carefully, you can deduce Tom is at minimum 24 at the beginning. Tom is stated to be 10 years older than Seb, who is “at least fourteen” at the start of the story.

May December Romance has specific criteria, regarding the minimum age of the December and the minimum size of the age gap, which most of these examples don't meet. Laurel's old enough to be a December, but her example might fit better as Mayfly December Romance; I'm still thinking that over.


* AgeGapRomance:
** Tom and Polly. They meet when she's a child, and he's old enough to have been married. Polly gets a bit of a crush on him as a teen, but they don't actually start a relationship till she's in college. The age gap is still about 14 years.
** Both Tom and Leslie were teenagers when [[Really700YearsOld Laurel]] took an interest in them. Justified, in that she has to ensnare men and use them to prolong her husband's life, and presumably it's easier to get them under her thumb if she starts young.
** Fiona was ''hoping'' for one with her father's business colleague, Hans, even following him back to Germany to be with him when she was 15. It turned out to be very one-sided, and Hans essentially patted her on the head and sent her back to England.
