Line 397:
* [[Changeling Fantasy]]: They seem to provide an interesting take on this {{spoiler|when they adopt Renton}}
* [[Despair Event Horizon]]: {{spoiler|Charles's death}} for Ray.
* [[Even Evil Has Standards]]: {{Spoiler|Played With the exception of trying to kill Renton twice, which she saw as a [[Mercy Kill]] in the event her attempt to capture and reason with him went wrong; she hesitates when she sees Maurice Maeter and Linck coming out of the brig, wondering why there are children aboard. As she expected only Gekkostate personal and Eureka. However it all goes to hell when they all call Eureka "Mama." As Ray refuses to accept a woman, who she views as a monster, to be a mother. It was the spark of her breakdown.}}
* [[Forgotten Fallen Friend]]: Enemy, technically, but this trope is Averted either way. The characters who knew them show these two weren't easily forgotten.
* [[Go Out With a Bang]] / [[Go Out with a Smile]] {{Spoiler| Charles does both. The former twice. When Holland empties a clip into Charles' abdomen and shows brief pity for his old friend, Ray gets the drop on him shooting him in the leg. The other time was with the help of Ray. Using his corpse as an explosive distraction to get her to escape.}}
* [[Hotblooded Sideburns]]: Charles has them.
* [[Mama Bear]]: Ray.
Line 406 ⟶ 408:
** However, {{spoiler|they hate Eureka because Dewey has convinced them that she's to blame for Ray's infertility.}}
* [[Shout-Out]]: Their names, to pianist [[Ray Charles]] and or designers Charles and Ray Eames
* [[Tragic Monster]]: Ray embodies this {{spoiler| as she believes the Seven Swell Effect caused her infertility. While her actions make her crazy and sadistic especially when it comes to Eureka, her reasons are very sad and sympathetic. Realizing that Eureka, the woman she deems responsible for her infertility, is an adoptive mother; was the spark of her breakdown. Losing Ray made her forgo her basic routine of keeping the ship spotless. Even trashing the place save for three neatly set plates and utensils on the table. When she attacks Gekko state using her ship and KLF's she's stoic while humming a bit from her favorite song "Get It By Your Hands." With the only thing breaking said stoicism is Renton trying to talk her down. However when Renton vows to protect Eureka, this makes her write him off as a lost cause, believing that Eurkea's possessed and consumed his soul. Which in turn causes her to attempt Kamikaze her Ship, The Swan into the Gekko in an attempt to kill herself and take Renton and Eureka with him. The former in hopes they'd be reunited in the afterlife. When Holland and The Gekko stop her, blowing the cock pit, she's left wounded searching until she finds her severed arm which has the wedding ring Charles gave her. Her only line post flashbacks in Episode 28 sums it all up. Her story while sad, makes her attempts just as scary.}}
* [[Villainous Breakdown]]: Ray ''loses'' it when {{spoiler|Charles dies}}. It's heart-rending to see the aftermath of her utterly trashing the ''Swan'' in her grief.
{{Quote|'''Ray:''' [[You Are Too Late|It's far too late.]] For everything!! Renton? Eureka, the one you're there to protect; [[Misplaced Retribution|took every happy future away from your mama.]] [[Omnicidal Maniac|Now it's time to take everything away]] [[Suddenly Shouting|FROM YOUR FUTURE EUREKA!!!]] Renton, [[What Does He See in Her|you have been possessed by a horrible and dangerous monster]]. [[Dissonant Serenity|But it's alright]]. [[Mercy Kill|Mama will save you.]] [[Taking You with Me|And we'll all go together]] [[Afterlife Express|where CHARLES IS WAITING FOR US!!!]]}}
* [[Villainous Breakdown]]: Ray ''loses'' it when {{spoiler|Charles dies}}. It's heart-rending to see the aftermath of her utterly trashing the ''Swan'' in her grief. It gets worse when Renton states he'll fight her to stop her, in an effort to talk her down.
* [[:Category:Yandere|Yandere]]: Ray is a Mama Bear variety.
