'''Liz:''' Dude, you have no idea. }}

 

 

Among the cast are K's friends, most of whom are involved with the supernatural in one way or another, a couple of [[Chibi]] angels whose job is to censor K, a couple of little demons who like to beat up the angels, and a strangely [[Bishonen]] Lucifer.

 

 

* [[Affably Evil]]: Lucifer. {{spoiler|K calls him Uncle Luc.}}

** On a darker note, {{spoiler|K and Bishop and Bishop and Terry's relationships.}}

** Well, ''[[Captain Obvious|duh]]''.

* [[Ambiguously Gay|Ambiguously Bi]]: K says this about [http://blipcomic.com/45/ Liz].

* [[Anti-Hero]]: K. On the [[Sliding Scale of Anti-Heroes|Sliding Scale]], she's somewhere between Type I and Type II.

* [[Apocalypse Maiden]]: K via [[Ascended Fridge Horror]]; her interactions with people and her creative projects have altered the cosmic scheme and the cosmic powers that do exist have absolutely no idea what is going on.

* [[Art Shift]]: When Bang draws some silly comic strips.

* [[Aw, Look -- They Really Do Love Each Other]]: Between K and Bang.

* [[Beard of Sorrow]]: Bishop {{spoiler|grows one as he takes care of Terry and later mourns her death.}}

* [[Berserk Button]]: Don't say the H-word to Hester. Girl might have been called {{spoiler|[[Never Heard That One Before|"Hermione"]]}} one too many times in the past.

* [[Big Ol' Unibrow]]: Atlantes.

* [[Bishonen]]: Lucifer {{spoiler|and his non-fallen double}}.

** K seems to be brunette now, so it's played straight.

* [[Blue Eyes]]: Hester.

* [[Casanova Wannabe]]: Stephen.

* [[Cluster F-Bomb]]: Used by K. A lot.

* [[Cosmic Plaything]]: K.

* [[Creepy Child]]: K's inner child is pretty much insane.

** The recently introduced set of angels.

* [[Cute Witch]]: Hester.

* [[Cyborg]]: Mary is described as one early in the strip, but later (and especially once her full back-story is revealed) it becomes clear that she was always [[Robot Girl|entirely robotic]].

** {{spoiler|Truly subverted with Liz building a coalition of monsters to support K}}

* [[Deadpan Snarker]]: K.

** Also done in the [[Flash Back]] that entails Mary and K's original falling out.

* [[Despair Event Horizon]]: {{spoiler|K goes through one when she thinks that Bishop is cheating on her with Terry.}}

* [[Double Entendre]]: Many brands of food and restaurants are given names that resemble swear words. Examples: "Pho King", "Fuku Sushi", and "Chitos."

* [[Fainting]]: Bach faints multiple time at the sight of his own blood.

* [[Evil Twin]]: Inverted ([[Alternate Character Interpretation|Maybe]]) with {{spoiler|Camael, an angel who looks exactly like Lucifer.}}

** He seems at least good enough to be outraged at the [[Creepy Twins]]' deeds.

* [[Fish Out of Water]]: Atlantes when he comes to the city to visit Hester.

* [[Fluffy Cloud Heaven]]

* [[Funny Animal]]: Maggie, Hester's cat.

* [[Gender Blender Name]]: {{spoiler|[http://blipcomic.com/695/ The prostitute's name is revealed to be Quincy.]}}

* [[Genre Busting]]: [[Slice of Life]] about a girl [[Masquerade|unaware]] of the fact that she was never meant to exist, is central in the battle between heaven and hell, that her best friends are a [[Our Vampires Are Different|vampire]], a [[Cute Witch|witch]], and a [[Cyborg]], and that her {{spoiler|ex-boyfriend is apparently [[The Messiah]], which is something he is also unaware of}}. And that's not even addressing every story thread: a demon is now {{spoiler|[[All Love Is Unrequited|in love with the witch]] after she saved his life because the devil [[You Have Outlived Your Usefulness|tried to kill him]]}}, so now he and his sister are {{spoiler|[[La Résistance|recruiting for a war to rebel]] against hell}}, the protagonist's ex-boyfriend's ex-girlfriend ended up {{spoiler|[[Littlest Cancer Patient|having cancer]] then [[Tear Jerker|died]] so [[Values Dissonance|heaven could punish her parents]]}}...you know, let's just say that this comic can be full of amazing surprises.

* [[God Is Evil]]: Maybe... {{spoiler|Then again considering that an angel didn't know that people could go to heaven...}}

** It's been recently revealed that God {{spoiler|[http://blipcomic.com/808/ isn't exactly in the picture] at the moment}}.

* [[Gratuitous Japanese]]: Angela.

* [[The Grim Reaper]]: He's short and kind of panicky.

* [[Hidden Eyes]]: Liz.

** Also Bishop when {{spoiler|[http://blipcomic.com/122/ he thinks K is cheating on him]}}.

* [[Horny Devils]]: The Succubus and the Incubus.

* [[Imagine Spot]]: Used quite frequently.

* [[Immune to Fate]]: K. The only way Heaven averts her completely toppling the order of destiny is by actively censoring and sabotaging her life.

** {{spoiler|With God being "away", this may not actually be the case.}}

* [[Last Het Romance]]: K to Bang.

* [[Light Is Not Good]]: The forces of "light" actively seek to ruin an innocent person's life.

* [[Loads and Loads of Characters]]

* [[Louis Cypher]]: My who's that mysterious, suave, blonde man who keeps appearing in the background?

* [[Masquerade]]: How the series has (so far) balanced mundane [[Slice of Life]] with [[Urban Fantasy]]. The non-supernatural characters are completely unaware of the forces at work around them, and the fact that their actions have cosmic consequences.

* [[Me's a Crowd]]: Mary's robot doubles.

* [[Mind Rape]]: Hester, Liz, and Mary's plan for {{spoiler|punishing Bishop for {supposedly} cheating on K}}.

* [[Moment Killer]]: Deliberately invoked by Hester and K with "Operation Third Wheel", to prevent Hester's unwanted date from getting too awkward.

* [[Multilayer Facade]]: The Adversary uses in-universe [[Pixellation]] to hide his face, and wears a mask underneath that.

* [[Ninja Pirate Zombie Robot]]: In her dreams, [http://blipcomic.com/index.php?strip_id=639 K fights a pirate rabbit transvestite robot.] While armed with weapons and powerups from ''[[Bleach]]'', ''[[Star Wars]]'', ''[[Dragonball Z]]'', and ''[[Sailor Moon]]''.

* [[No Name Given]]: K's roommates.

* [[Not a Morning Person]]: K.

* [[Only Sane Man]]: Bishop. So far, the only real weirdness he's really shown is when he [[Berserk Button|"unleashes the dragon."]]

* [[Our Angels Are Different]]: They're chibi. And are apparently mass-produced.

* [[Our Vampires Are Different]]: {{spoiler|Liz (finally confirmed in comic #356)}}. Also a [[Friendly Neighborhood Vampire]], but she wasn't always so nice.

* [[Power Limiter]] - Stated recently to be the reason why people like Hester have magic, and others do not. In K's case, this is apparently a good thing because she has a vast reservoir of magic within her.

* [[Power Perversion Potential]]: Deliberately exploited by Liz.

** Liz does like ''[[Let the Right One In]]'', though.

* [[Psycho for Hire]]: The chibi-devils.

* [[Schedule Slip]]: After managing to go one strip per day for ''ages'', the comic eventually dropped to a strip every few days, and then stopped altogether. Apparently, [[Justified Trope|the author was in a car accident, and was unable to draw for two months.]] After two months, the comic resumed on December 15, although updates have slowed down to almost a monthly basis now, as of March.

* [[Sensitive Guy and Manly Man]]: Bishop and Mohag respectively.

* [[Shadow Discretion Shot]] - Lucifer, before [[The Reveal]].

* [[Shaggy Dog Story]]: K and Mohag driving several hours to help {{spoiler|Bang}} who they thought had been brutally attacked. {{spoiler|He was OK, he only got stabbed in the arm and broke his phone. His attacker ended up much worse, possibly dead.}}

* [["Shut Up" Kiss]]: {{spoiler|[http://blipcomic.com/80/ Between K and Bishop].}}

* [[Slice of Life]]: Surprisingly, while the strip does focus on the fantastic plot, K's daily life and relationships are cataloged quite a bit.

* [[Spock Speak]]: Mary.

* [[Stoic Spectacles]]: Liz.

* [[Super-Deformed]]: The angels and minion's of the devil.

* [[Super Smoke]]: Another of Liz's powers.

* [[The Stoic]]: {{spoiler|[http://blipcomic.com/580/ The angel who gets attacked by an oni doesn't even flinch.]}}

** Many comics feature some character mocking a movie or band they dislike, only for [[The Rant]] below the strip to say something to the effect of, [[I Just Write the Thing|"They're crazy, that movie or band is awesome."]]

* [[Talking Animal]]: Maggie the cat.

* [[Tall, Dark and Handsome]]: Kei.

* [[Urban Fantasy]]

* [[The Unchosen One]]: K herself. She has no idea.

* [[With Friends Like These...]]/[[Vitriolic Best Buds]]: K and Bang.

* [[You Gotta Have Blue Hair]]: Liz. Also the Succubus.

* [[Your Cheating Heart]]: {{spoiler|Subverted. K believes Bishop is cheating on her, but he is actually helping and consoling his ex-girlfriend who has found out she has cancer.}}
