Not Good with People/Playing With

Basic Trope: They're great with any living thing - except humans.
 * Straight:
 * First type: Alice is a sweet-natured girl who can talk to - and understand - animals and plant life as if they were human, but when it comes to interacting with people of her own species, she panics.
 * Second type: Bob is a savage hunter in the jungle who's learned to live off the fat of the land, but is distrustful of humans.
 * Exaggerated:
 * First type: Alice can communicate with anything living, but passes out when a human being so much as looks her way.
 * Second type: Bob is a Hunter of His Own Kind.
 * Justified:
 * First type: Alice spent so much time learning how to talk to animals that she didn't learn to talk to humans.
 * Second type: Bob has some past hurt in his life.
 * Inverted: Animals Hate Him
 * Subverted:
 * First type: The companions run into Alice, who they expect to be very sheltered. She greets them warmly and helps them out with no trouble at all.
 * Second type: The gruff hunter greets the intruders with reasonable, if not extreme, warmth.
 * Double Subverted:
 * First type: ...in order to get them to quickly be on their way and not try to convert her.
 * Second type: ...But only because he knows if they're going to try something, it won't be if he's on guard.
 * Parodied:
 * First type: The naive Alice goes on a rant about various social injustices that either never existed, barely existed, or have since been fixed.
 * Second type: Bob turned his back on humanity because of a very minor misunderstanding that could have easily been resolved.
 * Deconstructed: What Is This Thing You Call Love?
 * Reconstructed: ???
 * Zig Zagged: ???
 * Averted: Both types get along well with other people.
 * Enforced: ???
 * Lampshaded: Go away! Me not get along very well with other two-legs.
 * Invoked: ???
 * Exploited: ???
 * Defied: ???
 * Discussed: ???
 * Conversed: ???
