* WhatYouAreInTheDark: When dolphins steal Rain's father's new underwater camera that Rain took without permission, she plans to buy a replacement without telling him and takes on a babysitting job for the Kims to earn the money for it (taking advantage of the parents' desperation to charge a slightly higher-than-usual rate). After [[spoiler: the emotionally-fraught ordeal of the Kim children's kidnapping and recovery, however, Rain refuses to accept the money when Fred Kim tries to pay her, and goes to Alonso and comes clean about what happened (to his mixed annoyance and [[SoProudOfYou pride]]).]]

Added DiffLines:

* BookDumb: Rain is far from stupid, but she generally doesn't put a lot of effort into her schoolwork (when Miranda expresses confusion as to why she's taking Spanish when she's already fluent, Rain is confused why she ''wouldn't'', as it gives her an "easy A" class). This shows when she struggles trying to research zemis and the Taíno because she doesn't really know ''how'' to research, just taking books out and flipping through at random hoping that something will jump out instead of any sort of organized system.

* InternalReveal: Miranda is brought into the loop on Rain's quest at the end of the second book.

to:
