* HeroicSelfDeprecation: Polly is shown to worry about how well she is doing as a caretaker for Basil and his grandmother, frequently wondering if she is doing something wrong or if there is more she can possibly do for them. She also regularly downplays herself and her talents — being surprised when Kel compliments her cooking, for example. [[spoiler:This reaches a heartbreaking conclusion in the ending where Basil commits suicide, as Polly can only lament how she wasn't able to do anything to stop it:]]

[[spoiler:This reaches a heartbreaking conclusion in the ending where Basil commits suicide, as Polly can only lament how she wasn't able to do anything to stop it:]]



* ParentalSubstitute: She ''tries'' to fill this role for Basil, since his parents are out of the picture and his grandmother is in no condition to keep looking after him. Unfortunately, it's largely [[DeconstructedTrope deconstructed]]: Basil's mental state is far too strained for him to comfortably turn to Polly for support, and Polly has no way of knowing [[AwfulTruth the reason why that is]]. The result is that Basil actively keeps Polly at arm's length, and while Polly notices this she can't figure out what exactly she's doing wrong.

Added DiffLines:

* ComicallyLopSidedRivalry: He labels Kel as his [[ArchEnemy "arch-nemesis"]], but Kel barely gives him the time of day—and when he ''does'', it typically ends in Mikhael being completely humiliated.
** It's best shown in an optional sequence after his fight on Three Days Left, in which he challenges [[LovableJock Kel]] to race to a tree and back, despite Kel repeatedly warning him that he's ''very'' fast. Sure enough, Mikhael barely makes it ''halfway'' to the tree before Kel finishes ''both laps'', and he's completely out of breath by the time he finishes whereas Kel isn't even winded.


Added DiffLines:

* WaterIsWomanly: She has a self-admitted love of the ocean and is heavily associated with it. The 'womanly' aspect is [[DownplayedTrope downplayed]], however, as she's a competitive swimmer who gets along with [[LovableJock Kel]] through their shared interest in athletics.


Added DiffLines:

* ChildishOlderSibling: They're both eccentric CloudCuckoolanders with a fixation on playing childish games like hide-and-seek, and very clingy towards their younger brother Mikhael

* AdaptedOut: She had a headspace variant in the games demo, kicking off the adventure by asking the main group to find her grandson. She ended up being cut in the final game, [[spoiler:save for a fairly out-of-the-way cameo as a Stranger]].
* DroppedABridgeOnHim: [[spoiler:She's suddenly taken to the hospital on the third day and it's heavily implied that she dies — which may be a catalyst for Basil's breakdown for that day and may explain why it's implied he still commits suicide offscreen in the Hikikomori route.]]

* QuirkyMinibossSquad: They effectively serve as this for Aubrey, particularly on Three Days Left where you fight each of them before you can confront her. Their lineup consists of a BrattyHalfPint {{Chuunibyou}} (Angel), a GentleGiant (Charlie), an even ''bigger'' {{Chuunibyou}} who has to bribe girls to date him (The Maverick) and a pair of hopeless [[SweetTooth Sweet Tooths]] (Kim and Vance). None of them are particularly malicious and their fights aren't played very seriously, especially compared to the one-on-one confrontations with [[WeUsedToBeFriends Aubrey]].

* BloodKnight: Kim, even more so than some of the other Hooligans. When Kel offers her an entire bag of candy in exchange for info on Aubrey, she instead decides to fight them for it instead, despite how much easier it would be to just take the bribe. For his part, Vance only fights to support his sister, and noticeably has no desire to fight Kel or Sunny when talked to on his own.
