Spices is a story written on Fiction Press and Textnovel by an author called "Caution Zone". The story follows 13-year-olds named Sakkai, Cheerio, Connan, Psaici, and Cossi, along with their supposed "guardian" vampire named Siki. So far, they have no idea where they are in the story —- though the prologue suggests they might be in a weird place in Japan.

Tropes:

  • Exactly What It Says on the Tin: Guess what goes on in the House of Innuendos?
  • Gosh Dang It to Heck!: The characters are fine with cursing most of the time, but most of the time when yelling use "Oh my gosh!" or "Oh my goddess!".
  • Porn Stash: It's implied Psaici has a tamer version of this; Cheerio finds a DVD of the real-life ecchi anime My Santa! on the table, and Psaici says it's his.
  • Shout-Out:
    • Lucky Star: The Lucky Star Hotline.
    • As well as the obvious shout out to the anime My Santa!.
    • Animaniacs: The "Good night everybody!" at the end of How to Train Your Pika Cat: Part I, used in the exact same context.
  • Sound-Effect Bleep: Real life Parental Filters are set on the gang for a chapter, and there is a point where Connan curses out Psaici, all covered with bleeps left to the imagination. Siki hears it loud and clear and begins bursting out in laughter.
