* TheChick: Andi should be the TropeCodifier, since this is her main talent. She´s such a perfect example she could even beat Optimus Prime´s girlfriend, the pink one - whatever they call her - when it comes to seem adorable and fragile without doing anything. Everything is in the description and the angst.
* TheChosenOne: Andi is the only one who might one day come even close to stop Ctuhlu from causing the Apocalypse. This is due to her natural charm and knack for beautiful DidYouThinkICantFeel speeches which make her the perfect example of TheChick ; a nice change from the usual boring AudienceSurrogate who uses work or skills during three hundred pages of boring conflict, because she immediately solves many problems simply by ´´being there´´. Yes, you read well, she´s awesome like this, even when not lifting one single finger. To make it worse, she is the only one able to do that in the entire town. This is just ho boring and unexceptionnal every other character is.

* TheDitherer: Andi, with very good reasons. While critics have found it strange and think this is supposed to make her an audience surrogate (keeping silent on important matters a la Nick Carraway), Andi is a teenage girl who suddenly attracts the attention of a CuteButPsycho [[spoiler: Alien King]] and her UnluckyChildhoodFriend in a town where her mother keeps asking her whether she is fine while she is not and she visibly chose not to speak about it. Also there's this stuff with the WomanScorned who tries to destroy the world... because of reasons and the bell keeps ringing at 3:35 ! Life is not easy for Andi but haters will never show sympathy.
