Betty and Veronica: Difference between revisions

Line 574:

** The [[Sibling Triangle]] kind is present with Hoagie/Numbuh 2, who is torn between his close, [[Tsundere|tough but kind]] teammate Abby/Numbuh 5 (Betty) and her evil older sister Cree (Veronica), who treats him with disgust. Interestingly, his attraction to Abby is [[Ship Tease|far more subtle]] than the standard, but nevertheless, {{spoiler|he chooses Abby at the end, being [[Happily Married]] in the finale. It helps his [[Precocious Crush]] on Cree was pretty shallow, being based by her [[Evil Is Sexy|gorgeous appearance]] and [[Loving a Shadow|superficial similarities with Abby]].}}

** During the show's run, Wally/Numbuh 4 (Betty) had love rivals like The Kid and King Sandy (Veronicas) for Kuki/Numbuh 3's heart. Subverted in that Kuki [[Single-Target Sexuality|has never shown any attraction to them, only being interested in Wally]]. {{spoiler|So of course he gets the girl.}}

** This is played with Nigel/Numbuh 2's love interests, Lizzie and Rachel/Numbuh 362. In appearance, Lizzie is the Betty, being Nigel's homely girlfriend; while Rachel is the unattainable beauty, thus the Veronica. Their personalities, though, are the opposite: Lizzie is a [[Clingy Jealous Girl]] bordering on [[Yandere]], more fitting of a Veronica; while Rachel is a nice and understanding [[Reasonable Authority Figure]], making her close to a Betty. {{spoiler|Nigel ends up in space without either of them.}}
