=== This webcomic provides examples of: ===
 
* [[And I Must Scream]]: When Elanor and Takashi are asleep at the same time, she can only see blackness and hear the ambient noise as he lies in bed. She finds it so horrifying that she alters her entire sleep cycle so they'll never be asleep at the same time.
Line 21 ⟶ 20:
* [[Sibling Incest]]: Not literal, of course, but Eleanor and Takashi's relationship can feel a lot like this to anyone who's ever heard of the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Imprinting_(psychology)#Westermarck_effect Westermarck effect].
* [[Single Target Sexuality]]: One can only assume
* [[Small Name, Big Ego]]: Bobby Crosby is infamous for raging at everyone who even remotely hints there may be defects in his personality or writing, or interpreting the story differently than how he sees it.
* [[Star -Crossed Lovers]]: An American girl and a Japanese boy... during [[World War 2]].
** {{spoiler|Subverted toward the end.}}
* [[Strange Girl]]: Elanor comes across this way due to speaking aloud, apparently to herself, knowing Takashi will hear her.
* [[The Un -Reveal]]: What causes the mind-link and why? No one ever knows.
* [[Wham Line]]: {{spoiler|[http://dreamless.keenspot.com/d/20100222.html "You can speak Japanese for the same reason I can speak German."]}}
* [[What Do You Mean ItsIt's Not Heinous?]]: Bobby Crosby seems to think that lying to anyone for any reason is horrible, which is why both he and the story consider Takashi an idiot for telling small lies to Elenor so he can actually have some privacy.
* [[What Now? Ending]]: a rare non-depressing example.
