Darker and Edgier | |
| A Darker Take (Fanfic) / int_14beeefd | comment |
Darker and Edgier: True in overall tone, as the author reconsidered what the early days would be like for someone like Oskar who found themselves having to learn to deal with severe bloodthirst and requisite murder. | |

Conditioned to Accept Horror | |
| A Darker Take (Fanfic) / int_1b465242 | comment |
Conditioned to Accept Horror: By the time of Canoe Vacation, Sweet Home, and Territory, Oskar thinks nothing of pretending to be an innocent child to trick kind people into letting him and Eli into their homes so the pair can feed on them. He and Eli even treat it as a game. Downplayed in Sweet Home, when it's clear that the couple still has limits, but notable in Territory when they kill eight people in three days, albeit for the purpose of dissuading a more brutal vampire. | |

The Farmer and the Viper | |
| A Darker Take (Fanfic) / int_505a1021 | comment |
The Farmer and the Viper: The titular woman in Maggan, a kind-hearted woman who takes in Oskar and Eli out of pity, learns the hard way what happens with a newly-turned vampire. The mother in Sweet Kids is also on the receiving end of this, with consequences for her own child. | |

| A Darker Take (Fanfic) / int_7eebe99c | comment |
The Alcoholic: Maggan/Maria, who habitually drink beer and absinthe, respectively. In Maggan's case, it's hinted that her alcoholism has driven away her family, although it's not as bad as the case of Oskar's father. | |

Children Are Innocent | |
| A Darker Take (Fanfic) / int_91672d3e | comment |
Children Are Innocent: At times. Oskar and Eli are vampires who kill to survive, but they're still 12-year olds physically and mentally. Potentially averted in Monster depending on the reader, per Word of God. | |

Friendly Neighborhood Vampire: Played up in several stories, where the two children go out of their way to help others and occasionally feed on a criminal or two when the opportunity arises. Averted in A Darker Take. | |

Viral Transformation | |

Viral Transformation: As in the original story. Oskar experiences this firsthand, slower than usual since he shared blood with Eli rather than being bitten. Early on he's able to tolerate sunlight and normal food, but this tolerance disappears as the infection progresses. | |

Pet the Dog: In Beach Life, the two kids help teach some younger children to fight back against a bully who's been destroying their sandcastles. Applies to a lesser extent in Hosting Guests with Maria, who takes in Eli and Oskar because she paid her several thousand krona, but who still goes out of her way to be kind and feed Oskar, as well as be understanding with Eli, who she thinks is merely allergic to the sun. | |
