History Fanfic / GuardianBlue

* SavageWolves: Cherry is [[CanisMajor enormous]], [[{{Yandere}} stalkeriffic]], delusional, an adrenaline junkie and not afraid to [[spoiler: torture her ex-boyfriend, or take on cops (even elephant cops)]].

** Also, there's the fact that in a world where just about every mammal is sentient, eating cheese may count as this. The full extent of this becomes apparent in Season 3, when Judy and Nick discover an abandoned gas station filled with knockoff 'celebrity cheese' - cheese that supposedly came from the lactations of Zootopian celebrities. Judy is ''not'' amused when she discovers that ''she'' was one of the mammals the cheese supposedly came from. [[SkewedPriorities Nick just wonders if it tastes the same as rabbit milk]].

* SeldomSeenSpecies: African Wild Dogs, or Lycaons, as they are called in-universe, feature prominently in the Interior arc of Season 2.
* ShownTheirWork: In Season 3, it's mentioned that once upon a time, 80% of Zootopia's bat population was wiped out by a fungal disease. This is a reference to a real-life affliction that's spreading among North American bats called [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/White-nose_syndrome White-Nose Syndrome]].

* FreeRangeChildren: In Season 3, Judy and Nick are chagrined - and more than a little worried - when Sam suddenly appears without warning at their apartment, having travelled all the way there from New Reynard.

'''Tora:''' "I have offered him no such thing. [[TrainingFromHell I am his morning jogging partner until I start seeing healthy habits emerge.]]”

-->'''Judy:''' "Ch- err, [[spoiler:Mayor]] Bogo promised [Clawhauser] Gazelle tickets if he lost a certain amount [of weight] and that seemed to work."

* UnfortunateImplications: A played-with, in-universe example. The game of "Munch" - popular in Bunnyburrow - is essentially like a game of Tag. Only, only one person can be considered "it," and this person is designated the "fox" of the match. Judy worried about running into this trope when Munch is brought up on her and Nick's visit to Bunnyburrow.

* {{Determinator}}: '''Judy'''. The fanfic is by no means subtle that she'd ([[spoiler:literally!]]) go to Hell and back for Nick.

* OrpheanRescue: [[spoiler:A metaphorical version - after Nick's apparent death in Season 1, Judy searches for his body in a place deep in Zootopia's climate control system colloquially known as "Hell's Cauldron." What she doesn't expect to find is that Nick is actually alive in there. This trope is what follows - complete with [[AwesomeMoments Judy kicking a hole in a parking lot surface and yanking Nick out of the ground with her]]. A newspaper headline about the rescue put it best]]:

* INeedAFreakingDrink: Chief Bogo remarks that since Judy and Nick joined the force, all he needs to to is text "FB" to his wife to ensure there's a stiff drink waiting for him when he gets home.

* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: [[{{DaChief}} Chief Bogo]] seems keen to avoid repeating his mistakes from the movie. In ''Guardian Blue'', he makes sure to give Judy and Nick assignments that play to their strengths, and to their niche as the ZPD's two smallest non-rodent officers, even using their relationship to his advantage during an investigation at Mystic Springs Oasis.[[note]]It was a two-officer job, and no one else would take the assignment because they didn't want to become ''that'' well acquainted with their partner. Sending a team of two who were a couple in reality circumvented that issue.[[/note]] He goes even further with this trope as [[spoiler:he manages to take down Lanolin Enterprises ([[OffscreenMomentOfAweseome off-camera, no less!]])]], and as of the end of Season 2, [[spoiler:is tasked with running the whole damn ''city'' as Acting Mayor]].

* PutOnABus: Chief Bogo makes hardly any appearances after Season 2. {{Justified}} as [[spoiler:he's most likely too busy running the city as Acting Mayor]].

* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: [[{{DaChief}} Chief Bogo]], who sometimes makes use of Nick and Judy's developing relationship and their niche as the ZPD's smallest officers by giving them assignments that play to their combined strengths, [[spoiler:manages to take down Lanolin Enterprises ([[OffscreenMomentOfAweseome off-camera, no less!]])]], and as of the end of Season 2, [[spoiler:is tasked with running the whole damn ''city'' as Acting Mayor]].
