* AdaptationalIntelligence: Slightly this to his canon self – he was able to get the position of Sheriff instead of Blubs, and was GenreSavvy enough to know that saying “dead or alive” in front of Ford, Priyanka, and Doug was a bad idea.

* GoodIsNotSoft: He shattered several gem monsters in Chapter 2 to defend himself (to be fair, he had no backup and there was a small army of them, and Ford may not have known they UsedToBeAMan).
LaserBlade: He has one of these from… somewhere. Given how smart he is, it’s possible he made it himself.

Awesome! I just broke the record for me making a new best friend!

LaserGuidedAmnesia: It’s heavily implied that this happened in the past for unknown reasons – for both the Portal, and Stan. As a result, Ford has no memory of being The Author.
ObfuscatingStupidity: Averted. Ford tells Dipper and Mabel about the supernatural inhabitants of Gravity Falls the same day that they arrive, and says he’s been studying them for the last 30 years. Ironically, they’re the ones who don’t believe him at first.
OffscreenMomentOfAwesome: With the assistance of acrobatics and some futuristic weapons, he takes down a small horde of gem monsters by himself in chapter 2.
[[PreAsskickingOneLiner So I guess you’re staying. Good.]]

%% Due to the nature of both [[AlternateUniverse Momswap and Gravity Rises]], any tropes pertaining to someone being nicer/meaner than their canon selves, or not being like their canon selves, probably shouldn't be included.

* BrutalHonesty: At times.

[[/folder]]

[[folder: The Crystal Gems]]
!! Steven Universe
* EveryoneCanSeeIt: His crush on Connie is obvious to almost everyone who knows him.
* LuminescentBlush: Steven gets these pretty much whenever he sees Connie do… almost anything.
* NotSoWeak: Endangering his friends or family is one of the few ways to make him stop stuttering and get angry.
* ShrinkingViolet:
* SociallyAwkwardHero:

!! Jasper
* AffectionateNickname: Jasper refers to Steven as her “cub”.
* [[spoiler: AllLoveIsUnrequited: She was in love with Rose Quartz before the latter’s passing, according to a coded entry in Journal 3.]]
* FeelNoPain: In the entry under SuperToughness, she is struck by lightning multiple times and doesn’t poof, and says she’s got the highest pain tolerance of the gems – after the mission, her only issue is a severe case of static cling.
* TheLeader: To the Crystal Gems, after Rose’s passing.
* SuperToughness: When she goes to recover the Lightning Beetle, Jasper walks through a perpetual thunderstorm, being constantly hit by lightning. And it’s not due to any special power like Garnet's heat immunity – she explicitly just states that she has the highest pain tolerance.

!!Lapis Lazuli
* AdaptationalNiceGirl: Compared to her sort-of traumatized canon self, Lapis is far happier and more cheerful here.
* [[spoiler:AllLoveIsUnrequited: She has a crush on Peridot, according to Journal 3. The feeling isn’t mutual, as far as we know.]]
* BrilliantButLazy: Lapis is just as strong as she is in canon – however, she almost never bothers to actually use her powers to their full extent, and hasn’t really trained them much in battle.
* TheTease: To Peridot, who is embarrassed whenever it happens.
* UnskilledButStrong: As mentioned above, Lapis has never really trained her abilities that much for fighting.

!! Peridot:
* CommonalityConnection: She is friends with Ford due to their mutual love of science.
* FridgeLogic: InUniverse – in Chapter 2, she asks Mabel where she got the 20 disposable cameras they brought to hunt the Gobblewonker.
* WhatTheHellHero: When it looks like Malachite accidentally killed Steven, she starts screaming at her, despite knowing how badly overpowered she is.

[[folder: Fusions]]
!! Amazonite:
* LightEmUp: She can infuse her water attacks with Peridot’s energy blasts.
* OriginalCharacter: She’s the fusion of Lapis and Peridot.

!! Malachite:
* AdaptationalHeroism: Downplayed – she’s on the side of the heroes, but the first time she appears, she attacks the kids and (accidentally) almost kills Steven, which causes her to defuse.
* [[spoiler:ArrangedMarriage: As it turns out, according to Journal 3, she was supposed to be this between Lapis and Jasper to better serve the Diamonds. Considering her first formations might have been at Homeworld's behest might explain her antagonism.]]

Youth of Gravity Falls:
Connie Maheswaren:
* Adorkable: Whenever she’s talking to Steven and her crush is showing.
* GenkiGirl: Downplayed – she’s not as energetic as canon Mabel, but she’s extremely outgoing.
* InSeriesNickname: Sunshine.

!! Pacifica Pleasure:
* AdaptationNameChange: To match with her "changing places" with Gideon, her last name has AddedAlliterativeAppeal with her first.
* HumiliationConga: First Dipper breaks up with her, then soaked to the skin by Lapis, and finally, Dipper pushes her into a mud puddle as payback for hurting his friends.
* MindManipulation: She had an amulet that she stole from the Crystal Gems that could do this, until Dipper took it away.
* PsychoExGirlfriend: To Dipper, given that her relationship with him was partially based off of her hypnotizing him to do what she wanted...

[[folder: Adults of Gravity Falls]]
!! Sheriff Durland:
* AdaptationalIntelligence: Slightly this to his canon self – he was able to get the position of Sheriff instead of Blubs, and was GenreSavvy enough to know that saying “dead or alive” in front of Ford, Priyanka, and Doug was a bad idea.
* PoliceAreUseless: Just like canon Gravity Falls, but he’s slightly more reluctant about it here when [[spoiler:Connie and Mabel are kidnapped]].

!! Deputy Blubs:

!! Old Man Mcgucket:

* TheWoobie: Even more so than in canon - his son here hasn't visited him in ''years'' instead of months, and threatened him with a shotgun when he thought he was causing trouble (though it was never revealed if it was loaded).

!! Dr. Doug Maheswaren:
* AdaptationalIntelligence: Sort of – he wasn’t stupid in canon, but here, he’s the one with the doctorate instead of Priyanka.
* MyBelovedSmother: He’s this to Connie.

!! Priyanka Maheswaren:
* GoodParents: To Connie, given that she’s far less controlling than Doug is.
[[/folder]]

[[folder: Main Antagonists]]
!!Yellow Diamond:

* EstablishingCharacterMoment: Her first appearance (dialogue-only) in Chapter 7 indicates that unlike the canon Yellow Diamond, who at least made some effort to be (or appear) reasonable, this Yellow Diamond is a complete EvilOverlord when she considers shattering someone for the Red Eye’s failure, and tells Bill flat out that she’d kill him if she could.
* PsychopathicWomanchild: Minijenn’s tumblr, and what we’ve seen of her so far, indicate Yellow Diamond is this in spades.
* YouHaveFailedMe: When the Red Eye is destroyed by the Crystal Gems,

!! Bill Cipher:

* SmugSuper: Bill is at least four-dimensional in nature, fully aware of his powers, and he’s not modest about any of it.
* TheStoic: He says that he views anger as “an ugly emotion”, and is seemingly far more controlled than canon Bill.
