Unable to Cry |
| The Murderer Down the Hall (Webcomic) / int_1d47b2b7 |
comment |
Unable to Cry: Though Richard often depicted in art and in the actual comic deals with very depressing issues, even aside from the death of his cousin, he has yet to be shown crying at all. |

comment |
Fat and Skinny: Richard and Twigs, the two main characters, physically embody this trope. However, it is not used for comedic purposes, but rather an artistic choice. |

comment |
Shorter Means Smarter: Twigs is the shortest character in the main cast, only rivaled by Oscar. Twigs is said to be physically weak, as he is not good in sports whatsoever, but he is also said to be the smartest character, "well on his way to school valedictorian." |

Bookworm: Twigs Parker is the epitome of a bookworm character. He is also part of the literary society, which is essentially bookworm central. |

Police Are Useless: The police have not seemed to play a huge role in the story and likely won't, because the investigation is up to Richard. |

Odd Couple: From the comic's conception, Richard and Twigs were always opposites yet still very close friends. Richard is athletic, cheery (usually), and outgoing. Meanwhile, Twigs is nerdy, reserved, and quiet. |

Homage: There has been various aspects about the art that has purposefully referenced the influences of the comic, such as the artwork depicting Richard and his pet dog in place of Tintin and Snowy from The Adventures of Tintin. |

Skintone Sclerae: Though most characters just have Black Bead Eyes, Oscar in particular has the most detailed eyes, as he actually has eyelids and eyelashes. However, he does not have whites in his eyes. |

comment |
Improbable Hair Style: Most of the characters in the comic have relatively normal cartoonish hair but Richard's hair in particular is quite odd, especially for the 1940's. This is one of the many parts of the comic that takes inspiration from Tintin, who also has a weird hairstyle. |

Chromosome Casting: All of the characters shown in the comic thus far are male. This is due to being set in an all-boys boarding school. There is only one female character, Susan, but she has yet to show up in the comic at all and is only merely part of Richard's backstory. |
