Creator Breakdown | |
| Patty and Mark / int_10f35f3a | comment |
Creator Breakdown: Inverted. Lotz wrote "Patty & Mark in the New Millennium" about a week after breaking up with his girlfriend. Said story has Patty and Mark not only struggling but ultimately staying together, but finding out that they've been together over numerous lifetimes. Also played straight. In the early stories, Mark often called Patty "babes." Lotz called his girlfriend this and since they broke up, Word of God states that Mark now calls Patty "princess" instead. | |

Ax-Crazy | |
| Patty and Mark / int_2d4fa515 | comment |
Ax-Crazy: Downplayed with the League of Men Engaged in Continuous Combat. They only attack people for "the spirit of combat" and it's implied they try to avoid actually hurting anyone. This would basically make them a weird cross between a milita and a fight club. Cloud Cuckoolander: Everyone to some extent. | |

Cybernetics Eat Your Soul | |
| Patty and Mark / int_533bc7ae | comment |
Cybernetics Eat Your Soul: In "Eye Spy Through Patty's Eyes", Patty decides to replace her glasses by getting a pair of electronic 'spy eyes' surgically installed into her head. Over the course of the story they turn her into a murderous cyborg who decides to destroy the town simply because her eyes creep people out. This is actually a recurring theme throughout Lotz's writing. Anyone who gets an Intelligence Hotwire installed in them becomes at best, a Cloud Cookoolander, and at worst, an Omnicidal Maniac. | |

Conspiracy Kitchen Sink: As it goes on, the series gradually implies that every conspiracy theory is not only true, but connected in the least likely way possible. | |

Author Appeal | |
| Patty and Mark / int_6627695f | comment |
Author Appeal: Lotz loves astronomy, and the story "Stargazing" shows Patty feels the same way about it. The series is set in the state of Maryland. According to Word of God this is Lotz's love note to the state. The characters are stated to read similar books and listen to similar music to what Lotz likes. The characters are all training to be journalists. Guess what Lotz is by trade. | |

Savvy Guy, Energetic Girl: Patty is bubbly and excitable, while Mark is more reserved and pragmatic. Brian and Stephanie Summers are this even more so. | |

| Patty and Mark / int_95db314b | comment |
Casual Kink: At the end of "Patty & Mark in the New Millennium", P&M engage in role-playing sex that involves wearing cardboard Burger King Crowns and pillow talk in Dutch discussing civil engineering (It Makes Sense in Context). While delivering pizza one night, Brian accidentally walks in on Mel wearing Dominatrix garb and holding a whip while Joe is handcuffed to the bed. | |

Retro Universe | |
| Patty and Mark / int_c1967d3e | comment |
Retro Universe: Aesthetically and technologically, the series seems to take place in The '80s or The '90s, but culturally it resembles The New '10s. Word of God says the next P&M story to be published mentions Mark taking Patty to see Inside Out (premiered summer 2015) while using typewriters to write their news articles. | |

Social Services Does Not Exist | |
| Patty and Mark / int_cf6541ad | comment |
Social Services Does Not Exist: In "Oohray-Oohrah for Reading!" the League of Men Engaged in Continuous Combat do several dangerous and illegal things involving children (it's implied they hijack school buses) in order to get children for their titular Show Within a Show. They also have elementary school kids reading books like Flowers in the Attic to do reviews on. Somehow they never get arrested for this. Stephanie and Mel even discuss this. | |
