!Tropes in this work:
* AuthorAppeal: The author admits that the story makes her come off as a robot fetishist.
* BeastAndBeauty: Servo and Nina, but the temperaments are inverted so that the beauty is the one with rage issues.
* [[ChekhovsGag Chekhov's Gag]]: Servo staring at Nina's butt in Chapter 3.
* ChekhovsGun: Remember Bella's secret cowplant from Chapter 5? [[spoiler: As of chapter 10, it becomes a possible murder weapon.]]
* ColorCodedCharacters / ColorMotif:
** Dina often wears [[GoldDigger gold]]. When she chooses to open up to Mike she's wearing green, an alien color.
** Jennicor and her family are almost always in black.
** The Kaylynns only ever wear [[WomanInWhite white.]]
** Nina and Don often wear purple, the color of woohoo hearts.
** Circe's always in pink.
** Bella always wears red.
* DoomedByCanon: We all know what happens to Bella and Michael several years later, not to mention the Tricou family and Rainelle.
* EntertaininglyWrong: Mortimer picks up on all the clues to Dina's alien background to the point of figuring out she's a green supernatural creature who accidentally caused Mr. Big's disappearance, yet he still comes up with an entirely wrong conclusion.
* {{Expy}}: Probably unintentional, but Mortimer Goth is a [[IronMan fast-talking, occasionally-dickish, flithy rich, witty mechanical genius with a mustache.]]
* FantasticRacism: Pretty much all the main characters have to deal with this in some way, Nina and Dina for their alien ancestry, Mike for his witchcraft, Servo for being a robot, etc. Brigit embodies this by being prejudiced against anyone non-human.
* {{Foreshadowing}}:
** Michael and Dina's first conversation involves him pointing out that the heroine in a romantic comedy usually chooses [[RichSuitorPoorSuitor love over money]] in the end.
** In Chapter 3, Bella jokes about someone "dropping dead on the dance floor" and a "banshee foreshadowing someone's death". Guess how the chapter ends?
* FunnyBackgroundEvent: Something to look out for.
** During the Tricou ball we see Kiernen and Kvornan making out with their wives, then each other's wives, and then [[BiTheWay each other.]]
* GirlOnGirlIsHot: Don regarding Nina/Brigit in the April Fools Day teaser.
* InternalizedCategorism: Servo especially struggles with this, while Dina and Mike also show signs of it in regards to their alienism and witchiness respectively.
* LoveTriangle: Don/Servo/Nina, Mike/Dina/Ocean, and Jennicor/Jon/Rainelle (which can also be extended to include Elden)
* MaybeMagicMaybeMundane: There are moments in the story that are clearly a result of magic, however there are also times where it is left ambigious as to whether or not something has a supernatural explanation.
* MistakenForGay: Michael and Mortimer, by Dina.
* {{Polyamory}}: Most of the Tricous
* RunningGag: Brigit repeatedly ''running'' away from things is quite literally this.
* ShoutOut: tons to The Sims 1.
* TitleDrop: Chapter 3 - "And after that we headed to Sim City in search of fortune and romance...”
** And again in Chapter 12 - “Well, I hope you’re not coming to me for approval, because I have said all I have to say to you about matters of fortune and romance.”
* WackyMarriageProposal: Ocean proposes during a funeral, right next to the open coffin.
* YourCheatingHeart: Don attempted this with Dina back in high school and, later on, Brigit with Ocean, but both were shot down.
