* [[Affectionate Parody]]: Of young-adult detective novels like [[
▲* [[Affectionate Parody]]: Of young-adult detective novels like [[Encyclopedia Brown (Literature)|Encyclopedia Brown]] and [[Nancy Drew]].
* [[Author Appeal]]: [[BBW|Lucy]]'s a bit pudgy. Par for the course with Cherrywell's work, but she's notably smaller than her other characters that tend to fit this niche. Minor character [[BBW|Iceflower]] also applies.
* [[Badass Preacher]]: Hugo Unger. Priest, crucifix enthusiast, and professional demon slayer.
Line 12 ⟶ 11:
* [[Boarding School]]: St. Balbeziar's, which Pepper attends. {{spoiler|But only for the first nine pages of the book.}}
* [[Body Paint]]: Worn by Moonwater and all the members of the Oakwind Community.
* [[Determinator]]: Pepper isn't leaving Monster Lake until she's found her missing person, in spite of all the weird goings-on. And even after she's found her, she won't leave until she's discovered the truth about the monster, even in the face of quite possible death and in spite of ''watching said monster kill people right in front of her''.
* [[Don't Go in The Woods]]: Because it's where the monster lives.
*
▲* [[Everythings Better Deep Fried]]: Even ''soup.''
▲* [[Evil Genius]]: Dr. Oort...[[Zig Zagging Trope|sort of]].
* [[The Fool]]: Lucy again.
* [[Geek Physiques]]: Dr. Oort, fat variety.
Line 24 ⟶ 23:
* [[Long Title]]: Most of the chapter titles. [[Played for Laughs]], of course.
* [[Made of Iron]]: Lucy again. Some instances of [[Amusing Injuries]], but not all of them.
* [[Maybe Magic, Maybe Mundane]]: The titular monster. {{spoiler|The truth actually lies somewhere in-between.}}
* [[New Age Retro Hippie]]: Moonwater Ravenwolf has definite shades of this, but also proves to be a [[Playing With Tropes|legit shaman.]]
* [[Plucky Girl]]: Definitely Pepper.
Line 34 ⟶ 33:
* [[Too Dumb to Live]]: Dr. Oort explicitly states the fences built to keep the monster out were inspired by [[Jurassic Park]]. Pepper is quick to [[Lampshade Hanging|lampshade]] how well ''that'' worked.
* [[Unexplained Recovery]]: Lucy suffers severe ''anaphylactic shock'' at one point. It lasts all of two panels.
* [[What Do You Mean
