3''[[https://www.webtoons.com/en/comedy/rooftops-and-roommates/list?title_no=2576 Rooftops & Roommates]]'' is a FantasticComedy {{webcomic}} by Zaanart published as a Webtoon Original.

5Jeb, a [[OurGargoylesRock gargoyle]], is a architecture major at a human university. Follow him as he not-so-successfully attempts to cover up his secret identity from the humans.
6
7!! ''Rooftops & Roommates'' provides examples of:
8* AlienAmongUs: Jeb, a gargoyle, must fool the human students into thinking that he is just a foreign exchange student. He is not the only one at his university though.
9* AmicableExes: Shandi and Alex are ex-girlfriends and are good terms with each other. She even helps Alex fight Omicoven.
10* {{Animesque}}: The art style is very reminiscent of anime and manga.
11
12* BravingTheBlizzard: Jeb does this while drunk and Alex has to bring him inside.
13* CurtainsMatchTheWindows: Jeb has black irises and black hair.
14* DoubleEntendre: Alex accidentally makes it sound like Jeb was flashing people in episode 20.
15-->'''Alex''': So why did you do it anyway? Expose yourself?
16-->'''Jeb''': Please don't say it like that.
17* DoWrongRight: After the Dean learns of Alex and co's attempts at vengeance against Omicoven, who had been harassing Alex with curses, she helps them cast a spell [[{{Pun}} which]] reverses any curse that they cast onto Alex onto them.
18* {{Masquerade}}: Jeb must hide his true gargoyle nature from the human students. It is later revealed that all supernaturals must do this, though it is easier for witches and the like because they are human and don't need to use magic to mask their true forms. The supernatural realm is where must magical creatures come from which they try to keep a secret from humans.
19* MuggleBestFriend: Todd is Jeb's.
20
21* GlamourFailure: Jeb's true form is revealed when [[spoiler: Callias, a harpy]] is near. Jeb later tries to use a rune to force Alex to reveal her true form. As she is a witch, the rune backfires and reveals '''his''' true form.
22* OhCrap: Jeb gets one of these in episode 18, when he realizes that he just exposed himself to Alex.
23-->Oh, shi-
24* IdiotHero: Played for laughs. Jeb manages to nearly unmask the {{Masquerade}} a ridiculous amount of times, if it wasn't for his brothers; Alex; and Todd cleaning up after him.
25** He doesn't consider the possibility that Alex might be human, and accidentally reveals his true form to her. Luckily for him, she's a witch, so she already knew.
26** He warms up Alex's pizza with his green fire in ''public''.
27-->'''Alex''': Honestly, it's amazing you've lasted this long without an '''''actual''''' human noticing you.
28* PsychoPink: Jane, a member of Omicoven, has hot pink hair and is an asshole. She and Owen blackmail Alex by cursing her for Victoria's amulet.
29* RobeAndWizardHat: Downplayed. Though it seems to be common attire amongst magic-users, they seem to wear normal human attire much more often.
30* RoseHairedSweetie: Lottie, Shani's girlfriend, tries her hardest to help Alex with her rivalry with Omicoven for nothing in return.
31* ScaryShinyGlasses: Shani does this occasionally, though most prominently in episode 162.
32* SensorCharacter: Supernatural creatures can detect other supernaturals.
33* ShadowedFaceGlowingEyes: Jeb has pitch black skin and glowing green sclarae.
34* TechnicolorFire: Gargoyle fire is emerald green.
