Line 9:
** Nowadays, hurting her friends is unwise as well. Don't hit her. She reacts violently.
* [[Boobs of Steel]]: She is the only girl who fights and is the best endowed for her size, so Lucy may qualify, though only relative to her fellows.
* [[Belligerent Sexual Tension]]: With Michael. [https://web.archive.org/web/20140719140856/http://www.bittersweetcandybowl.com/c41.1/p1.html And how!]
** Also with Paulo.
*** Well, considering they're the only two guys she's ever been interested in, and that this is [[Tsundere|Lucy]]...
Line 28:
* [[Heroic Albino]]
* [[Hidden Depths]]: How nice she can be is pretty much "pets only" overall. Her pets mentioning that niceness astounds everyone.
* [[Jerk Withwith a Heart of Gold]]
* [[Jerkass Facade]]
* [[Loners Are Freaks]]: She was forced to play alone in ''pre-school''. Because she didn't want dolls, but cars, and was a girl. Girls decided she was too boyish. [[Girls Have Cooties|Boys were afraid of her.]]
Line 52:
* [[Limited Wardrobe|Limited Scarf Choice]]: Enough so that him changing the color scarf he wears (or wearing no scarf at all) is a major thing.
* [[Living Emotional Crutch]]: To Lucy. {{spoiler|He's aware of this, and resents it.}}
* [[Long -Distance Relationship]]: With Sandy.
* [[Mistaken for Gay]]: Paulo loves teasing him about this.
* [["The Reason You Suck" Speech]]: {{spoiler|[http://www.bittersweetcandybowl.com/c68/p29.html Harsh.]}}
* [[Stepford Smiler]]: [http://www.bittersweetcandybowl.com/c68/p17.html Hm...]
* [[Super Senses]]: Michael has excellent hearing, to the point that sudden yelling and pep rallies really [[Cursed Withwith Awesome|mess him up]]. [http://www.bittersweetcandybowl.com/c42/p9.html Ace hearing] indeed. {{spoiler|The trap in Confrontation took advantage of this to get the group in an alley for mugging.}}
* [[Took a Level Inin Badass]]: {{spoiler|His rescue of Lucy}} in Confrontation.
* [[Took a Level Inin Jerkass]]: Lucy is considerably nicer to him and others than she used to be. He's, on the other hand, become less friendly to her since her {{spoiler|[[Love Confession]].}}
 
=== Daisy "Daze" ===
Line 70:
* [[Generic Cuteness]]: While still seen as pretty (Augustus has called her 'gorgeous' and Carter at one point even mistook her for Lucy) Daisy is regarded as being much less attractive than most of the other Main girls. However Daisy is part Ragamuffin, which develop later than most cat breeds, so her lack of attention probably stems from her poor self-confidence and the fact she isn't as developed as the other females.
* [[Love Triangle]]: AbbeyxDaisyxAugustus. In canon, {{spoiler|Abbey got her.}} In a [[What If]] chapter, {{spoiler|Augustus did.}}
* Running Gag: [[Mario Kart (Video Game)|"Hi, I'm Daisy!"]]
* [[Teen Genius]]
* [[Nice Girl]] Daisy despite being very occasionally immature or jealous, is very kind-hearted and supportive of her friends, often going to huge lengths to help them out.
 
=== Paulo ===
Line 78:
 
* [[Beta Couple]]: He and Jasmine were at first considered this, but then Pillow Talk subverted this.
* [[Brutal Honesty]]: Paulo in "Another Path" [https://web.archive.org/web/20130314160957/http://www.bittersweetcandybowl.com/c59/p25.html failed at tact.] [https://web.archive.org/web/20130314110453/http://www.bittersweetcandybowl.com/c59/p16.html A few times.] And Lucy [[Megaton Punch|thanked]] him a few times.
* [[Butt Monkey]]: Paulo had some butt monkey time randomly if Lucy (and sometimes Yashy) was nearby until high school. And [https://web.archive.org/web/20130314160957/http://www.bittersweetcandybowl.com/c59/p25.html then]...
* [[Can't Act Perverted Toward a Love Interest]]: Paulo is particularly protective of Daisy, and immediately shapes up when she's watching.
** In the chapter "Return", it's revealed that Paulo now thinks of Daisy as more of a sister anyway, and doesn't mind her going out with another guy.
Line 87:
** Also, he absolutely refuses to make use of {{spoiler|Lucy's fragile state when she almost imposes herself on him.}}
* [[Eyes of Gold]]
* [[Jerk Withwith a Heart of Gold]]
 
=== David ===
Chipper and dimwitted David sees the world a little differently to those around him. His distance from the others sometimes yields surprisingly astute observations.
 
* [[Ambiguously Bi]]: David adores Abbey according to the chart. And [https://web.archive.org/web/20130604040236/http://topwebcomics.com/images/banners/471.png this] or [http://taeshilh.deviantart.com/art/Prismacoloured-Distraction-66277078?q=boost%3Apopular+by%3Ataeshilh+abbey+david&qo=4 this] makes it seem that David likes touching Abbey while having fun.
** Now according to the new chart, he also adores Augustus.
* [[Brown Eyes]]: Really dark though.
Line 102:
Bound by a strong moral code, Abbey struggles to balance his protective nature with his short temper. While he may butt heads with the more easygoing members of the class, he’s working on it.
 
* [[Berserk Button]]: Don't abuse/insult a girl in front of Abbey, unless you want [[No -Holds -Barred Beatdown|a face full of fists]].
** [http://www.bittersweetcandybowl.com/c62/p12.html This] could be [[Death Note (Manga)|a bad sign]].
* [[Beta Couple]]: With Daisy.
* [[Beware the Nice Ones]]: Indeed.
** [[Bully Hunter|Never bully someone with this guy around]]. [[Extreme Melee Revenge|He will beat the shit out of you.]]
* [[Dark and Troubled Past]]
Line 120:
 
* [[Brown Eyes]]
* [[Put Onon a Bus]]: During freshman year. She later got a supporting cast role in sophomore year.
 
=== Sandy ===
Line 126:
 
* [[Gray Eyes]]
* [[Long -Distance Relationship]]: With Mike.
* [[Put Onon a Bus]]: Rather literally.
 
=== Jessica "Jess" ===
Line 160:
* [[Brutal Honesty]]: [http://www.bittersweetcandybowl.com/c68/p9.html In] [http://www.bittersweetcandybowl.com/c68/p10.html spades.]
* [[The Charmer]]: Used on Daisy and attempted unsuccessfully on Lucy.
* [[Foil]]: To Lucy. Taeshi herself says that "[http://www.bittersweetcandybowl.com/c63/p7.html [[Augustus]] renders her NORMAL]".
* [[Goth]]
* [[Gray Eyes]]
Line 173:
 
* [[Blue Eyes]]
* [[Bratty Half -Pint]]: What she lacks in size, she more than makes up for in volume.
* [[Catch Phrase]]: "Whore!!" to Daisy.
 
Line 181:
* [[Brown Eyes]]
* [[Cheerful Child]]
* [[Wide -Eyed Idealist]]: She's ''far'' less happy about Yashy's violent habits.
 
=== Lily ===
Line 217:
 
=== Kizuna "Kizu" ===
Madly in love with David, Kizuna never has [[All Love Is Unrequited|any luck getting David to notice her, let alone consider her romantically.]] Airheaded and clumsy, Kizuna is nevertheless a skilled cook, sadly for David. She appears oblivious to his dimwitted comments.
 
* {{spoiler|[[Ax Crazy]]: In Disaster Dominoes.}}
Line 225:
 
=== Carson ===
Carson is a manifestation of his creator’s heartfelt objection to the pervasiveness of the [[Stereotype Gay|“token” gay stereotype]] in modern pop culture. (He [[Abhorrent Admirer|blindly loves Michael]], [[Camp Gay|dresses flamboyantly]] [[Arson, Murder, and Jaywalking|and]] borrows his name from “[[Queer Eye]]”.)
 
* [[Abhorrent Admirer]]: Blindly loves Mike, in which Mike doesn't return his feelings
Line 238:
He loves Lucy.
 
* [[Abhorrent Admirer]]: [https://web.archive.org/web/20121022031838/http://www.bittersweetcandybowl.com/c33.1/p3.html His absolute weirdness turns everyone off.]
* {{spoiler|[[Killed Off for Real]]}}
* [[Single -Target Sexuality]]: For Lucy.
* [[Stalker Withwith a Crush]]
 
== Minor characters ==
Line 285:
* [[Big Bad]]: {{spoiler|Most certainly. His manipulations led to Paulo's jerk mentality, Paulo's phobia of barking, Confrontation in general, and he's being worked for by Augustus. [http://www.bittersweetcandybowl.com/c41/p1.html He also remembers his grudge against Mike and Lucy].}}
** Some keen-eyed forum users suggest he was the one who {{spoiler|date-raped Tess when she was a freshman}}.
* [[Combat Sadomasochist]]: Alejandro took two of Lucy's [[Groin Kick|kicks]], had his teeth smashed into each other hard enough to chip one and draw blood, and was still okay enough to {{spoiler|[[Would Hit a Girl|beat Lucy senseless]] before Mike came back}}, smashing his face into an alley floor and still not stopping him. It took Mike and Lucy together to turn the fight around (at which point it became a [[No -Holds -Barred Beatdown]]). And he beat Mike (and was about to '''crush his skull''') before all this happened.
* [[Faux Affably Evil]]: Until you make him mad.
** [[Moral Myopia]]: He does seem [http://www.bittersweetcandybowl.com/c12/p14.html to genuinely care] [http://www.bittersweetcandybowl.com/c41/p1.html for the members of his gang]. He's a complete douche to everyone else, though.
* [[Good Scars, Evil Scars]]
* [[Jerk Withwith a Heart of Jerk]]: '''[http://www.bittersweetcandybowl.com/c12/p11.html AND HOW].'''
{{quote| '''Sue''': So um... why are you picking on us? We're like... thirteen, ya know. If you think we're loaded with cash, then you're kind of an idiot.<br />
'''Alejandro''': *fingers Sue's chin* So then what's the harm in givin' us all yer money?<br />
'''Sue''': *slaps Alejandro's hand away* Because we actually ''NEED'' it!<br />
'''Alejandro''': *punches Sue in the face* '''WHO THE HELL CARES ABOUT ''YOU?!?''''' }}
* [[Would Hit a Girl]]: And hits two on-panel. It's implied that he hit his old girlfriend.
