10!!''Two to the Head: A Courier Six Novel'' provides examples of the following tropes:
11* AboveGoodAndEvil: Brianna generally considers herself too important to worry about whether her actions might be seen as good or evil, and defies even the 'good' forces at work to get what she wants.
12* ActionGirl: Brianna and her companions all fall under this trope.
13* BewareTheNiceOnes: Sunny Smiles. [[spoiler: She certainly lives up to her name, but it is later revealed that she is an ex-raider, and capable of single-handedly taking down a group of Freeside raiders.]]
14* BigDamnHeroes: The group all show examples of this trope, with Brianna leading 'The Battle of Goodsprings', Sunny rescuing the group from Lady Jane's thugs in Freeside, Cass [[spoiler: getting her revenge on Gloria Van Graff,]] and Veronica saving Sunny and Cass from a group of White Gloves.
15* BondOneLiner: "Time to cash out, you son of a bitch."
16* ChallengeSeeker: Brianna O'Reilly in a nutshell.
17* CombatPragmatist: Brianna takes the cake here when she bites the head off a Cazador.
18* ContinuityNod: When talking about cannibals, it's noted that all cannibals aren't necessarily bad, with the Arefu 'vampires' being the example.
19* CrapsackWorld: Takes a second serving.
20* DarkerandGrittier: The entire Mojave Wasteland is darker and grittier than the game itself, along with the people in it.
21* EatTheEvidence: Standard Ultra Luxe procedure.
22* FanService: Brianna just loves being naked.
23* FetchQuest: It's based on Fallout after all, and Brianna is a courier... Doesn't mean she has to like it.
24* FromBadToWorse: This fits the story in general, but specifically the Ultra Luxe investigations and the situation with Brianna and Mister House. Multiple times, in multiple, worsening ways.
25* InstantSeduction: Brianna is the master of this, managing to seduce her way past quite a few problematic guards.
26* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Brianna O'Reilly, when she tries to save Sunny during the Powder Ganger attack. Ringo points out that maybe she might still have some compassion left.
27* OddFriendship: Cold, angry Brianna quickly forms a strong friendship with the bubbly, happy Sunny Smiles.
28* OffScreenMomentOfAwesome: Veronica takes this one when she says: "One time I punched a raider so hard that his skull concaved and his brain came out through his nose."
29* OhCrap: Often.
30* RousingSpeech:
31 ->'''Sunny:''' "No. If you're not up for it, then get out of my sight. And I hope you feel proud when you walk outta those doors leaving everybody else to fend for themselves! When we kick those Powder Ganger's asses I hope you feel ashamed that you were too busy wiping the shit stains from your panties to defend your own home! We have the supplies, the resources, the skills... Now all we need are people with balls. It's the wasteland for God's sake! You can't hold onto anything out here unless you're willing to fight for it!."''
32* ScrewTheRulesIMakeThem: Brianna demonstrates this often with the NCR.
33* SirSwearsalot: Brianna is the female equivalent of this, and Sunny loves to mock her for it.
34->'''Sunny:''' "It's the fucking wasteland. Fucking people get fucking hurt, and you have to suck it the fuck up and fucking deal with it. And that's what I do, because I'm emotionless and curse a lot to channel my deep, inner anger and emotional trauma because I'm too good for feelings."
35* ShoutOut: Scooby-Doo is referenced during the investigation of the Ultra Luxe.
36* TemptingFate: [[spoiler: When Sunny says: "There are worse ways to go."]]
37* TheReasonYouSuckSpeech: Brianna loves these.
