* CannotTellAJoke: Harley, who can be funny unintentionally, but never on purpose. All his "jokes" peter out as he seems to realize how dumb he sounds before he finishes speaking. For just a few examples:
** Episode 0:
--->Overwatch Command? More like Overwatch... [=DUMBmand=]...! HEH. ...fuck...
** Episode 6:
--->Communications Department? More like... fire... department...
** Episode 10:
--->'''Lancaster:''' Hey! Hey. I’m late. I'm so sorry.
--->'''Harley:''' After my job, I see.
--->'''Lancaster:''' What?
--->'''Harley:''' Of... being late- nevermind.


Added DiffLines:

* HatedByAll: Simmons from Records. ''Nobody'' likes him, for a reason that's [[RunningGag never specified]].


Added DiffLines:

* NoodleIncident: Episode 25 is one long barrage of Noodle Incidents. Among the ones mentioned are "the Mushroom Incident", something involving a hundred pounds of upholstery foam, "cafeteria table pyramid incident", the "Ice Microchip War", and "the dead fish thing".

* DumbMuscle: Love is a RareFemaleExample, the most physically capable member of the cast who also thinks having your appendix removed means you're diabetic, attempts to tame a vine monster that just trapped her inside a wall by ''throwing away her only weapon'', tries to waterboard someone who's standing up, and can't remember how to pronounce "suspected".



* {{Malaproper}}: Love is full of these: "sensory overhaul" instead of sensory overload and "portable water" instead of potable water, among others.
* MoralityPet: Dumptruck, Love's pet potato monster. Both Klein and Lancaster observe that she's much calmer and starts less fights after creating him.



* NoIndoorVoice: Love, who can regularly be heard shouting so loudly that it's audible through walkie-talkies held at arm's length from the listener. It's especially noticeable when she's in scenes with Raddagher, TheQuietOne of the cast.
* TheNondescript: The entire cast, by virtue of the format. No physical description is given for any character beyond Love being short and having "shiny hair".
* NotHimself: Lancaster, after [[spoiler: a Dash One forms on his leg]]. His normally upbeat personality became neurotic, obsessive, and prone to harsh outbursts, and whatever he's doing in his office, he is ''intensely'' secretive about it, snapping at everyone who innocently asks if he needs help organizing. So far, Raddagher is the only one who seems to have noticed that something is severely off.

the number 32 (i.e. 32 seconds, 32 minutes etc) intrepid site director who carries around a flare gun, participates in office chair races, gets ''really'' into the sitewide Capture the Flag game, and constantly advocates for SCP-6320-1s to form.flagrant disregard of protocol in favor of the site's survival.

* FourTemperamentEnsemble: With the laid-back Harley as the Phlegmatic, the sociable, upbeat Lancaster as the Sanguine, the HotBlooded Love as the Choleric, and the withdrawn, paranoid Raddagher as the Melancholic. Klein fits somewhere in the middle, possessing an InferioritySuperiorityComplex while being outwardly optimistic and rowdy but inwardly self-doubting. The characters are written with enough depth that none of them fit neatly into a box, though; for example, Harley has a number of alarmingly depressive traits and Lancaster is prone to neurotic obsessiveness.



* GroundhogDayLoop: An unusual example in which all living material remembers the events of previous loops, both physically and mentally, not just one character, and the loop lasts just over 32 days, rather than one day.

However, the loop doesn't affect organic matter (or SCP-6320-related effects); plants continue to grow, memories and injuries persist over resets, and [[AllDeathsFinal all deaths are final]].

* PrecisionFStrike: Lancaster swears fairly often, but seems to reserve "fuck" for particularly climactic moments; notably, he closes his interview with the D-Class who tried to strangle him with a blunt "Fuck you."
* RagtagBunchOfMisfits: PRI is predetermined by each person's individual psyche, so the people who ended up being immune to SCP-6320's primary memetic effect ended up being this; five people who were at best work friends and at worst total strangers. Their skillsets and attitudes differ wildly.
* RedOniBlueOni: Love and Raddagher respectively, with shades of both EnergeticAndSoftSpokenDuo and HamAndDeadpanDuo. Love is loud, brash, impulsive, and prone to violence and SuddenlyShouting; Raddagher is TheQuietOne (to the point of becoming nonverbal occasionally), reserved, methodical, and often the first to notice when something seems off.
