* BluntYes: In Chapter 4, when Blue wonders if she has been acting upset for no reason, Cinnabar flatly responds, "Yes."

* ClingyJealousGirl: It upsets Cinnibar to see Blue spending any time with her other peers.
* ColorfulThemeNaming: Both Blue and her sister Navy are shades of, well, blue, both physically and in name. Cinnabar is also named after a shade of red.
* DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment: When asked to list her favorite things in Q&A #1, Cinnabar repeats "Fire" twice, and "Blue" ''five times''.
* DisappearedDad: Cinnabar's father is nowhere to be found in her life. Was an AmbiguouslyAbsentParent until the Q&A's, where Cinnabar's mom explained that they split up when Cinnabar was very young, and it left Cinnabar with a fear of abandonment.
* DudeWheresMyReward: Cinnabar is outraged in Q&A #2 when a reader reminds her that the team wasn't paid for their rescue outing.

* FreudianTrio:
** Cinnabar is the Id. She acts impulsively and is very emotional.

** Holly is the Ego who tries desperately to mediate the two and fit in.
* GoodParents: Holly's moms are supportive and want her to have a healthy social life in spite of being new to the town. When she tells them how she's getting bullied, the homemaker mom says she'll report it to the school, while the working mom [[MamaBear considers fighting the bullies herself]].
