* NonHeteronormativeSociety: This trait is actually contrasted with the current real world. Sebastien, the main character, moves to the Catacombs, a fantastical version of Paris hidden beneath the city where monsters and humans that use magic co-exist and his family disapproves of him learning magic and of his homosexuality, so moving there was a plan to escape from it. In the Catacombs, he is introduced to a society where queer identities and romance are all very well accepted and fairly common.

''Les Normaux'' is a webcomic written and illustrated by an author going by the name KnightJJ. Available on [[https://tapas.io/episode/74429 Tapastic]]

!Trope
* AffectionateNickname:
** Sebastien is called Seb by his friends.
** Elia calls his older sister Giovanna "Gio".
** All of Elia's friends call Tiponi just Tip.
* AloofDarkHairedGirl: Tiponi, while not as cold as the standard of this trope, is certainly much less dorky than anyone else in the cast and acts in a way that looks much more mature.
* {{Asexual}}: Matisse explicitly state himself as such in his introduction chapter.
* BiTheWay:
** Elia is currently dating Sebastien, but Pam mentions he had a girlfriend 2 years prior to the events of the comic. He eventually mentions that he prefers girls over men, but prefers Sebastien over either.
** Raahim is introduced with mentions that he once serenade a girl to get a date and it worked. He did the same thing with a guy and it also worked. It's quickly later shown he had just had sex (and about to have sex again) with a four armed man.

After a five year long relationship´, they broke up, which he only describes as tragic, which led him to discover about his own magical skills.
* DidNotGetTheGirl: [[spoiler:Pam doesn't ends up with Radha, becoming JustFriends with her. Lucky for her, she later meets a traveling free spirited gorgon named Tehani with whom she hits off]].
* EnsembleCast: At the start of the comic, it's clear the story is about Elia and Sebastien and their budding romance. As the comic goes on though, less and less focus is directed solely to them as every character gets their own chapters and their story and motivations explained. While Elia and Sebastien still have more screentime, the difference in margin isn't very large and they often appear as support characters in other character's chapters.
* FantasticRacism: Humans outside of the supernatural circles appear to look down on the species that live in the other version of Paris. Even among the people who live there, ghosts seem to still be target for some prejudice.
* {{Gayngst}}:
** Sebastien still can't find in himself to talk to his family about his interest in men, many of which are still expecting him to show up with a girl at home and give up on his interest in magic.
** A variation with Adrien, Ronnie's sister as he struggles to identify himself, not knowing to whom or what he is attracted to. And ends up feeling like he is somehow "wrong".
* HappilyMarried: Sebastien's aunt and uncle show that they are still energetic and in love as if they were young.
* InterspeciesRomance: And oh boy, does this comic runs with it.
** Sebastien/Elia is the romance between a human wizard learning magic and a actor-turned-model vampire.
** Ronnie/Drew is the romance between a werewolf make-up artist with an undead boy who works in a shelter.
** Sebastien's aunt and uncle are a human woman and a Jinn.
* LoadsAndLoadsOfCharacters: Which can be seen in the poster on this page. Even more notable: almost all of them have plotlines for themselves.
* MaliciousSlander: [[spoiler:Ronnie's high school was full of rumors that she was easy because she thought a guy with whom she had sex was her boyfriend, and he spread about it]].
* MasterOfTheMixedMessage: Drew played an unwitting one. Because of his shyness as well as a believe that nobody would actually like him, he kept Ronnie at an arm's length which eventually leads her to think that she might be seeing things and he isn't interested in her.
* MixedAncestry: Drew is half-brazilian, half-french, "mentioning" this when he shows he also knows how to dance.
* MoodWhiplash: After their first kiss, Sebastien and Elia start making out, this is quickly undercut when Elia asks why Sebastien rejected his first kiss, which turns the hot and heavy make out session to dark hints that Sebastien faces issues and then to jokes about Elia biting.
* OpenMindedParent: Elia's parents are very OK with his sexuality, but they do overload him with questions about Sebastien and their relationship once he confesses to be seeing someone.
* OurVampiresAreDifferent: Vampires here do need blood to live, but they can buy it on supermarket, and can eat it with other items. They have no problems with garlic, get sunburn in the sun (but can die if overexposed) and are born vampires, so if they bite anyone it doesn't do anything to them.
* ParentalSubstitute: Sebastien has trouble with his own family, as they don't accept neither his sexuality, nor his choice of dwell into magic. His aunt and uncle are much more supporting and welcoming, which eventually shows that he considers them parental figures more than his own parents.
* ReallyGetsAround: Raahim is introduced showing he has gotten a date with both a guy and a girl by serenading them and then he quickly states that he has just slept with a model.
* TraumaticSuperpowerAwakening: Raahim's magic was awoken after a break-up with his girlfriend of five years, which isn't even dips on his past as a survivor from an airstrike.
* TheReveal: Drew keeps writing his narrations as letters to his parents about what he has been up to. [[spoiler:It's eventually revealed that he isn't sending them because his parents are dead]].
* TheUnfavorite: Radha is this. She even keeps her family at distance because she knows everything they'll do is talk about how her sister is doing great and she should be more like her.
* UrbanFantasy: The story follows a fantastical version of modern day Paris in which humans and magical beings live in harmony.
