Eight Cicadas (Webcomic) / int_12e2a068 | comment |
Alone Among the Couples: Annette has feelings of this in "Valley of Tears" and "Close Encounters", after Bill's death. She looks at both Sinbad and Amy with a lot of jealousy. Though it ends quickly once she's absorbed into their relationship. | |

Big, Screwed-Up Family | |
Eight Cicadas (Webcomic) / int_154aa477 | comment |
Big, Screwed-Up Family: The Waverlys, who attract the messed-up. Annette likes bringing in unrelated friends as housemates. Suicide is nearly-epidemic among the residents. Many come from a background of abuse (Annette, Sinbad, Hannah, Amy to a lesser extent), depression and self-loathing (Shark and Harwood), or substance abuse (Bill and Shark). Many of the adults are criminals to varying extents. Annette has a highly-dysfunctional relationship with several household members (her feuds with Franco, spoiling/enabling Shark in his darkest hours, her tense friendship with Sinbad, etc). However, the trope does get periodically reconstructed, as Annette often can pull people together too. The extended Racket family shows hints of this. Before they all die off, most of the members are criminals of some stripe or another. The elders are Serial Rapists and abusers, often against their own family members. Silver and Bill both have histories (or presents) of substance abuse. | |

Eight Cicadas (Webcomic) / int_1c5f6177 | comment |
The Twink: Landon as of "Mashallah", right down to being tan and blond. Harwood might have some of the aesthetic, being naturally tan and small, though he is older and tends to attract younger (or seemingly younger) beefcakes like Troy and Shark. | |

Eight Cicadas (Webcomic) / int_22cf536c | comment |
Chekhov's Gun: The amethyst ring. Introduced as an ordinary trinket that Annette steals. So far, it's also a magical or alien jewel that can blast enemies away to other dimensions at Annette's request. It so far has saved her in "Six Against Four", "Close Encounters", and "Sirius A". | |

May–December Romance: Harwood and Shark were an extreme example, with over fifty years separating them. It's mentioned that Harwood was only a few years younger than Shark's grandparents in "Seeing Red". Annette and Bill also had a steep age gap between them. | |

Max takes it about a billion steps further with Annette, by wanting her to leave Bill and have sex with him whether she likes it or not. Later revealed in "The Gallery, Part Two" that he and Marigold were this is many of Bill's partners. | |

Eight Cicadas (Webcomic) / int_6d332aea | comment |
Driven to Suicide: Almost a regular event. Harwood kills himself via overdose in between the events of "Greenware" and "In My Time of Need", driven to it by lingering angst over his past. Shark hangs himself after the events of "You Could Have Lived", due to no longer being able to live without Harwood in his life. Bill shoots himself in front of Annette in "Saint", due to his deteriorating physical state after his injury in "Silencer" and not wanting to be a burden on his family. Carmen drowns herself and her newborn out of guilt for cheating on Franco in "Mandala". | |

Descent into Addiction | |
Eight Cicadas (Webcomic) / int_71cc4b5a | comment |
Descent into Addiction: "First Drink" opens the story by implying that this happens to Annette, in regards to drinking. However, she starts off in "Zone 3" and other early chapters as a harmless social drinker. Shark suffers a similar downfall, going from a social drinker in chapters like "White Roses" to a violent alcoholic in "Liver". | |

Broken Pedestal: Reconstructed in "Down to Every Detail". Sinbad expects Annette to finally have the hatred he does for Harwood, due to a series of heinous acts he pulled in his past. However, they both come to realize that he was simply a complicated person, who ended up doing a lot of good by Annette. It also inspires Sinbad to further better himself in a similar way. | |

Hannah's mother, Sofia, is also physically abusive towards her. Bill went through it as an adult, during a flashback in "The Gallery, Part Two." Being in his 30's didn't stop Max from giving him a black eye and threatening to murder him. | |

Harwood and Shark are "Ugly Guy, Hot Boyfriend" material, almost to an extreme. Shark is young and muscular, and hopelessly in love with the old, shapeless, mangled-up Harwood. | |

Cast Full of Gay: Bill and Franco are two main characters who have been exclusively straight (zany schemes not included). Every other main character is bi/pan or gay, or too young to have a sexuality. Much of Twinbrook seems to be at least bisexual enough for Annette's orgies, and even background characters from elsewhere tend to be bisexual (Troy and the random city folk in the orgy in "Sirius A", Landon in "Mashallah"). | |

Good Smoking, Evil Smoking: Quitting smoking is used at least twice to show a character maturing, as with Bill after the events of "Heart Full of Fire" or Annette swearing them off for good in "Sixteen Cigarettes". However, habitual smoking is only done by characters who are harmful to the Waverlys. e.g. Armstrong in "White Roses", Troy in "Sirius A". | |

Daddy DNA Test: Annette arranges to have this done to Harwood and his potential kids after his death. This is also what reveals that Sinbad is actually his son. Annette also arranges a test to see if Justin is Hannah's biological father, after Shark brings it up to her. It actually turns out somewhat positively, as Justin immediately steps into Hannah's life and tries to get her out of her mum's abuse. Franco demands this in "Mandala" after Annette points out that there's no way that Abigail could he his. | |

Race Fetish: Bill is revealed to have the supernatural version of this in "Clavicle", as he is extremely attracted to demon girls. And Annette was the closest he could get to that. | |

Honorary Uncle: Franco refers to any close adult in his life as an uncle or aunt. Granted, a lot of them have alternate family relations, such as stepparents (Sinbad and Smy), cousins (Shark and Lolly), or even almost-father-in-law (Harwood). | |
