Line 93:
* [[Posthumous Narration]]: There are a couple very subtle hints at the end of ''Across The Dark Metropolis'' that the entire trilogy has been told by {{spoiler|the clipped and now grown-up Knocker}}.
* [[Real Women Don't Wear Dresses]]: Mostly by accident; there's functionally no difference between male and female Borribles, and all Borribles pretty much wear the same general clothing: jeans, sneakers, sweaters and knit caps pulled down to hide their ears.
* [[Really Seven Hundred Years Old]]: Although Borribles are theoretically immortal, few survive long enough to enjoy it. Spiff, however,
* [[Rodents of Unusual Size]]: The Rumbles, who are ratlike and the size of human children.
* [[Runaway Hideaway]]: Borrible society provides many examples of the Type 3 variety; some are long-established, others are temporary squats. Perhaps the most permanent (and impressive) example are the Wendle tunnels under the neighborhood of Wandsworth.
