9----
10!! This Webcomic provides examples of:
11* AlwaysIdenticalTwins: Averted in the Kids AU. Carmilla and Idun look somewhat similar and are same-gender fraternal twins.
12* FriendlyNeighborhoodVampire: Charles is a vampire and means no harm. Heck, even his 86 year-old wife is more threatening than he is.
13* DaywalkingVampire: Downplayed. Charles ''can'' go out during the day, though he needs to cover up if he is going to be in intense sunlight for prolonged periods of time. It is explained later own that that is because he drinks pig blood; he'd die immediately if he drank human.
14* ExpressiveEars: Charles' ears emote very much [[ExpressiveEars like a cat.]]
15* HappilyMarried: Charles and Cheryl have been married for five decades without much drama or arguing.
16-->'''Charles''': Cheryl says I make her feel young. Cheryl makes me feel alive.
17* HolyWater: Exploited by Charles. Charles was given a bottle of holy water from a "priest friend" to divert suspicion away from him when livestock start to go missing. Holy water doesn't seem to do anything to him.
18* MayflyDecemberRomance: Charles could live up to 1000 years or longer if he drinks human blood but Cheryl is a normal human and is 86 years old.
19* MeetCute: Cheryl and Charles met when she asked him to help her steal her boss's car because he refused to give her her last paycheck after she was fired.
20* MoreDeadlyThanTheMale: Don't make the mistake of underestimating Cheryl because she is 86 years old. She still is feisty and she and Charles literally met when she asked him for help stealing her boss's car. Compared to her, Charles is pretty mellow.
21* NotListeningToMeAreYou: In episode 2, when Charles tells Cheryl that he is a vampire, she first comforts him and ''then'' realizes what he just said.
22-->'''Charles''': I'm a vampire, okay!? I'm created to hurt you! We can't be together!
23-->'''Cheryl''': Charles... If you're going to do this, at least don't cry while saying it. I know you actually don't agree with it.
24-->'''Cheryl''': Wait... Did you say vampire?
25-->'''Charles''': What did you even hear?
26-->'''Cheryl''': It's just so rare to see you cry.
27* NotTheIntendedUse:
28** In episode 10, Charles uses a home pull-up bar in a door frame to hang himself upside-down for naps, like a bat.
29** In episode 12, Charles goes shopping for a coffin ''to sleep in''.
30* OurVampiresAreDifferent: Charles is heavily anemic, to the point of needing ''70 bottles of iron capsules''.
31* PapaWolf: In the Kids AU, Charles tells a man that tries to hit on Idun that "she's only 51" with his [[RedEyesTakeWarning glowing red eyes]].
32* RidiculouslyCuteCritter: Rabbit Charles in episode 14 is just so adorable with his little fangs, shaggy hair, and glowing red eyes. Would be scary if he wasn't in the form of a rabbit, though.
33* Really700YearsOld: Charles looks to be in his mid-twenties but is actually [[VagueAge ???]].
34* RomanticVampireBoy: Charles is this to Cheryl.
35* RoleSwapAU: Episode 13 is dedicated to what Human Charles x Vampire Cheryl, Human Charles x Human Cheryl, and Vampire Charles x Vampire Cheryl would look like.
36* VagueAge: In the original Canvas version, Charles is stated to be 310 years old (As displayed in the page image). When the comic was moved to Webtoon Originals, [[https://www.webtoons.com/en/slice-of-life/vampire-husband/ep-1-married-life/viewer?title_no=4841&episode_no=1 his age is now "???".]]
37* VegetarianVampire: Charles the vampire drinks pig blood.
38* ViralTransformation: To become a vampire, you must be bitten by one.
39* WeakenedByTheLight: Charles is severely weakened by direct sunlight, as shown in [[https://www.webtoons.com/en/slice-of-life/vampire-husband/ep-5-forgive/viewer?title_no=4841&episode_no=5 episode 5]]. The only reason he can survive is that he drinks pigs' blood. Vampires who drink human blood turn to ashes immediately upon touching sunlight.
40* WeirdnessCensor: The local butcher thinks that Cheryl has a brilliant sense of humor when she tells him about her vampire husband, werewolf neighbor, and vampire mother and father-in-laws.
